| | Deep Purple Anthems CD - Import Deep Purple Discography of CDs
Deep Purple is one of those bands who has countless albums coming out featuring live material blended with album tracks and the occasional hit single to make a mishmash of listenable rock. This is mostly taken from their best moments of the '70s, which is by far the best period in their career. Big hits like "Hush," "Woman From Tokyo," and "Highway Star" are featured in solid versions that are usually live but still pack a punch due to the performing lineup. Most of the biggest songs are here (sans "Smoke on the Water") in some form, and the sound quality is shockingly good on the live material. The band would get so muddled up in membership changes and complications that their catalog fell into the same messy shape as many of their contemporaries, but some of these compilations are pretty decent and this is one of them. Nothing essential, but if this is the only Deep Purple album available to you, you could do a lot worse. ~ Bradley Torreano

Anthems music CDs
$8.85 This is a limited edition "Album Replica" CD of WE'RE AN AMERICAN BAND specially packaged to simulate the original LP design and a gold foil jacket, gatefold sleeve & 4 stickers.
Digitally remastered by Evren Goknar (1999, Capitol Mastering, Los Angeles, California).
Grand Funk's 1973 release, WE'RE AN AMERICAN BAND, continued the band's winning streak. It's gone on to become one of their most popular albums.
Slightly more pop-based than their previous work, the band plays as if it can do no wrong on this strong set. Produced by Todd Rundgren, the album spawned such gems as the rowdy and autobiographical title track, as well as such other highlights as "The Railroad," "Stop Looking Back," and "Ain't Got Nobody."
Having made several changes in their business and musical efforts in 1972, Grand Funk Railroad made even more extensive ones in 1973, beginning with their name, which was officially truncated to "Grand Funk." And keyboardist Craig Frost, credited as a sideman on Phoenix, the previous album, was now a full-fledged bandmember, ...

| | Lovin Spoonful Hums Of The Lovin' Spoonful CD (1966)
Anthems album
$9.79 Originally released on Kama Sutra (8054). Includes liner notes by Dennis Diken.
Having recorded four albums (one of which was the soundtrack WHAT'S UP TIGER LILY?) in slightly over a year, the band was on a shockingly strong roll here (which began to unravel after the release of HUMS, when Zal Yanovsky left). Then all of 22-years old, John Sebastian penned all the songs for HUMS. The album opens with "Lovin' You," a perfect confluence of pop and jugband music, and it closes with their biggest hit, "Summer In the City." In between are the classics "Rain On The Roof" and "Nashville Cats," along with a host of lesser-known, but no less ingratiating numbers from the short-lived but prolific Lovin' Spoonful.
Having released two previous albums and a soundtrack, along with a stream of singles, over the previous 12 and a half months, the Lovin' Spoonful assembled their third regular studio LP, Hums of the Lovin' Spoonful, for release around Thanksgiving 1966. It contained the group's chart-topping single from the previous June, "Summer in the City," along with September's Top Ten hit "Rain on the Roof" (curiously titled "You and Me and Rain on the Roof" on the LP). Released simultaneously with the album and included on it were the two songs from the next single, "Nashville Cats," which became the band's seventh consecutive Top Ten entry, and "Full Measure," a B-side featuring drummer Joe Butler on lead vocals ...

| Deep Purple Best Of Early Years CD (2003)
Anthems CD music
$6.29 Due to such all-time heavy metal classics as Machine Head and Made in Japan, it's easy to forget there was a Deep Purple before the arrival of Ian Gillan. Yes, before Gillan, a chap named Rod Evans fronted the mighty Purple, as evidenced by the release of the ten-track collection Best of the Early Years. While Evans didn't possess an extraordinary set of pipes like Gillan did, he did sing on the group's first-ever big hit, a cover of "Hush," which is included in all of its singalong glory ("Na, na na na, na na na, na na na"). Of course, though, there are other highlights from Purple's early years included here (many of which are covers) -- "Mandrake Root," "Kentucky Woman," and "April." Although this material was not as high quality (nor as high volume) as the band's output from the Ian Gillan or David ...
