Purchase Best CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Garbage Version 2.0 CD (1998)
Best album
 $15.35   
VERSION 2.0 was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Album Of The Year and Best Rock Album. "Special" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Rock Song.
"Special" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
Those of you who found yourselves mysteriously drawn to the dark sexuality of Garbage's debut might not get what you expect from their follow-up--at least at first. But a closer listen reveals that VERSION 2.0 is actually much closer to the true Garbage sound. The reason: Where GARBAGE was already more or less completed when Shirley Manson signed up, 2.0 allows her much more freedom to control the group's sound. The distorted guitar hooks, loops and industrialized production that defined Garbage's sound on their debut are still present, but tempered by Ms. Manson's strong pop sensibilities. If you listen closely, you can even catch hints of Blondie and the Pretenders. ...
| | Orianthi Believe CD (2009)
Best CD music
$9.09  
With her mind-blowing mix of heavy metal guitar prowess and bluesy, soulful vocals, Orianthi will draw some justifiably well-earned comparisons to such giants of rock guitar as Jimi Hendrix and, her own idol, Carlos Santana. On her 2009 sophomore album, BELIEVE, her style hews closer to the finger-frenetic pyrotechnics of such '70s and '80s icons as Eddie Van Halen and Steve Vai. Throw in her ability to sell a lyric and carry a strong melodic vocal phrase while also throwing down some devastating slabs of heavy metal riffage, and she starts to look a lot like the fantasy love child of Prince and Lita Ford. What's even more delicious is how, at face value, BELIEVE fits nicely next to studio-crafted--albeit stylistically successful--albums by Disney teen rock acts like Ashley Tisdale, Demi Lovato, and Miley Cyrus, the difference being that while those pretend-rock teen divas get backed by studio musicians, Orianthi is the backing musician. She is the real deal and BELIEVE soars on her mighty metal talents. Before this album, Orianthi ...

| | Gov't Mule By A Thread CD (2009)
Best album
$12.29
BY A THREAD is Gov't Mule's first studio album since HIGH & MIGHTY was issued in 2006. Since that time, bassist Andy Hess has been replaced by Jorgen Carlsson, though Hess appears on two tracks at the end of the album. Carlsson's playing style is much more aggressive than Hess', and is therefore closer - in spirit anyway - to Gov't Mule's original bassist, the late Allen Woody, though he possesses an adventurous sense of time and is harmonically more colorful than either Woody or Hess. Carlsson and drummer Matt Abst are a solid match, since Abst is a drummer used to shifting time signatures and allowing the unexpected in while still driving a band. The band's keyboardist and rhythm guitarist, Danny Louis, is a shape-shifter, playing to whatever is needed in a given track. His manner of coloring sounds inside and around a particular tune's framework is a large part of what makes Gov't Mule's sound so fresh here - despite the fact that they don't stray far from what they do best. Warren Haynes and his guitar are, as usual, front and center, his guitar screaming, his big throaty growl hammering down lyrics like a Southern fire-and-brimstone preacher with earthshaking soul. The material on this set is tight; there is less jamming but Gordie Johnson's production and mixing equalize everything at ten, making it feel like the disc is recorded live.
The set opens with the pulsing bass throb of "Broke Down on the Brazos," just before Haynes and guest guitarist Billy Gibbons enter and ...
| | Creed Full Circle CD (2009) Digipak
Best CD music
$13.59
Getting right back to where they started from, Creed reunites for Full Circle, putting all tensions to rest and cutting their first album in eight years. FULL CIRCLE is a none-too-subtle allusion to how they're getting back to their beginnings, but a cynic could say they never got much past it, toiling the same weathered ground on each of their albums, but this bears some subtle differences, particularly in how Creed sounds heavier ...
| | Ejected Noise For The Boys CD (1982) (Import) Import; Canada

$17.69
| | Carpenters CD (1971) (Import) Germany
Best songs
$10.49
The Carpenters' radio-friendly soft rock virtually defined the genre in the early 1970s, and this album--their third full-length--was the group's ace card. Following on the heels of the wildly successful CLOSE TO YOU, CARPENTERS features more breezy melodies marked by rich arrangements and beautiful lead vocals, courtesy of siblings Richard Carpenter and Karen Carpenter, respectively.
The record is most notable for two of the duo's strongest and best-loved singles. "Rainy Days and Mondays," written by soft-pop gods Paul Williams and Roger Nichols, is a bittersweet pop masterpiece fleshed out by Richard's string orchestrations and smoothly produced backing vocals, while Leon Russell and Bonnie Bramlett's "Superstar," ...

THE ESSENTIAL BILLY IDOL features 11 classic pop/punk tracks including "Rebel Yell" and "Dancing With Myself" on this U.K. import edition.
The British collection The Essential Billy Idol repackages the 1988 collection Idol Songs: 11 of the Best. Though it's a relatively small collection, it does indeed feature a fair portion of his essential singles, including "Mony Mony," "Rebel Yell," "White Wedding," and "Dancing With Myself." The synth-reggae of "Hot in the City" may come as something of a surprise to those ...
| | Best Of Both Worlds: A Tribute To Van Halen CD (2003)
Best CD music
$9.59
Despite its subtitle, Best of Both Worlds is really more a tribute to the veteran band's vocalists, since it mixes classic VH material with high points from David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar's respective solo careers. The "Diamond Dave Side" features three songs from 1986's Eat 'Em & Smile, as well as passable runs through "Panama" and "Take Your Whiskey Home." The highlight is probably "Shy Boy," where George Lynch, Tony Harnell, and Jason McMaster reach insane heights of weedly-weedly guitar madness. While Lynch and the boys approach Dave's VH work with the casual feel of a particularly ragged bar band, the "Red Rocker Side" of Best of Both Worlds has some guys who are really trying to sound like Van Halen did during the Hagar era. Gravity Pharm tears into "Why Can't This Be Love," while the vocalist of the unfortunately-named ...
| | Crests Sing All Biggies/The Best Of The Crests CD (2005)
Best music CDs
$10.69
The Crests, a integrated group (two African-Americans, a Puerto Rican, and an Italian) from New York's Lower East Side who seemed to specialize in songs about angels and birthday candles throughout their career, were all over the charts in 1959 thanks to the huge success of "16 Candles," and the group's record label, Coed Records, moved quickly to cash in, releasing The Crests Sing All Biggies on LP early in 1960, featuring their big hit plus its follow-up, "The Angels Listened In," and covers of other hits of the day. Later that year a second LP, The Best of the Crests, was released, featuring their singles for the label. Taken together as they appear on this single-disc release from Collectables, the two LPs essentially capture the Crests at their commercial peak, since lead singer Johnny Maestro (John Mastangelo) left for a solo career that same year, and although he was replaced by James Ancrum, neither Maestro nor the Crests ever flew quite so close to the sun again. This two-fer has some classic doo wop material, including "16 Candles," "Six Nights a Week," "Pretty Little Angel," "Trouble in Paradise" ...
| | Anthony Da Costa Typical American Tragedy CD (2008)
Best songs
$17.09
The more records I make and hear, the more I realize that I can't stand overly compressed and processed music. The people who are still making records the old way—real, raw and with heart—those are the ones I want to hear. And those are the ones I want to make. Fred Gillen Jr. and I went back into this one the same way we went into the last album—I brought in tons and tons of crumpled up lyric sheets of songs I'd written in the past year, mostly in the past week, and we'd see what fits. I like recording songs when they are new, and about six of the 11 on this album were like that. No click track—just me and my guitar, and whatever comes out. And then we added the sweet sounds of Abbie Gardner on dobro and lapsteel, Oliver Hill on fiddle, Andy LaDue on drums and Steve Kirkman on electric guitar, plus Fred and me on whatever we could get our hands on. I hope that people hear this album as part of my ongoing learning experience, about myself and about writing songs. "Typical American Tragedy" is a statement of where I was ...
