| | Teddy Pendergrass Very Best Of CD Teddy Pendergrass Discography of CDs
(2 Customer Reviews)
This fabulous compilation captures 14 significant Teddy Pendergrass tracks with nary a miss in sight. To the point and dead-on, Very Best of Teddy Pendergrass will please the baritones' legion of fans, and is a solid intro to TP for newbies. It would be perfect had the compiler included "Be Sure," the fantastic album cut from his first solo album. But you can't have everything, and this is more than enough to satisfy most musical palates. ~ Andrew Hamilton

| | Starz Anthology CD (2000)
Very Best Of CD music
$12.35 To some, Starz were Kiss' "little brother band," due to the fact that--like the masked quartet--Starz debuted in the 1970s, were managed by Bill Aucoin, hailed from the East Coast, and specialized in hook-heavy arena rock. And to a certain degree, this is true. But the 2000 compilation BRIGHTEST STARZ: ANTHOLOGY makes clear that Starz really were their own band--capable of penning ditties that should have stormed the charts, especially on their occasional detours into power pop territory. Highlights from all four Starz studio albums are here, ...
| | Petey Pablo Still Writing In My Diary: 2nd Entry CD (2004)
Very Best Of music CDs
$8.49 In 2001, Petey Pablo was all over the radio with "Raise Up," which sported a memorable call to take off one's shirt and spin it around like a helicopter. Well into STILL WRITING IN MY DIARY, the proud North Carolina native emphatically crows "one-hit wonder, hell no," and the rest of his second effort backs up that statement. To this end, the relentless, dance-floor stomping "Freak-a-Leek" (featuring Lil Jon) guarantees at least a second hit.
The rest of the record reveals an artist still capable of keeping a party going, but also one who's matured greatly in the ...
| | New Edition Hits CD (2004) Remastered
Very Best Of songs
$11.99 When Geffen released Hits early on in 2004, there were a few New Edition compilations previously available, each one with its own set of problems. Released in 1991, Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 (looks like that second volume will never happen) threw in only 11 cuts; 1998's Lost in Love: The Best of Slow Jams obviously left out the upbeat numbers; 2000's All the Number Ones ignored a number of significant, albeit lower-performing, hits. More importantly, almost all of these sets -- including 1996's New Edition Solo Hits -- featured solo material recorded by various members of the group (along with the occasional Bell Biv DeVoe hit). With ...

| | Bob Dylan Time Out Of Mind CD (1997)
Very Best Of music CDs
$6.89 TIME OUT OF MIND won the 1998 Grammy Awards for Album Of The Year and for Best Contemporary Folk Album. "Cold Irons Bound" won the 1998 Grammy for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.
This album by the quintessential singer-songwriter comes after a long layoff from recording original material. Dylan's previous two albums were powerful collections of traditional songs, and the album that preceded them was full of some rather iffy original tunes, so all eyes were on Dylan to make one of his patented surprise comebacks. As luck would have it, that's exactly what TIME OUT OF MIND turns out to be. Produced by Daniel Lanois, who manned the boards for Dylan's best latter-day album, OH MERCY, this one has the kind of raw, spontaneous vibe that serves Zimmy's music so well.
Loss and world-weariness abound in the lyrics, and Dylan articulates these emotions perfectly, in a manner that seems simultaneously casual and precise. Songs like "Standing In The Doorway" and "Million Miles" are bathed in sorrow and emotional desolation, but are so well-crafted that their solipsism is irresistible. An all-star cast including Ry Cooder and Duke Robillard provides the sparse, rough-edged, bluesy accompaniment that ...

| | Beres Hammond Love Has No Boundaries CD (2004)
Very Best Of music CDs
$10.29 Beres Hammond has had a remarkably long and consistent career in Jamaican music. Starting as the singer in the island's premier horn band, Zap Pow, Hammond began mixing elements of R&B, hip-hop, and dancehall into his patented lovers rock, and thanks to his easy and soulful vocal phrasing, not to mention his steady songwriting, he has crafted an approach that lifts him well above the constant shifting of Jamaican musical styles. Love Has No Boundaries doesn't break new ground as much as refine what Hammond has been doing for years, and the album's unbridled optimism is contagious and refreshing. Smooth as whipped butter and sounding at times like a happy and grounded version of Marvin Gaye, Hammond brings a calm wisdom to these songs of the heart, and his unassuming persona makes him the perfect duet partner. Buju Banton guests on "Thanks Fi Me Pride & Joy," one of the clear highlights here, and although mixing Hammond's urbane delivery with Banton's gruff yowl would seem a bit like mixing milk with gasoline, it works wonderfully. Another standout track here is "Good Old Dancehall Vibes," which features the legendary Big Youth, and it is quite simply a midtempo gem. Other key cuts include the opening "Interlude," ...
