Motorhead: Lemmy Kilmister (vocals, bass); Brian Robertson (guitar); Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor (drums).
Recorded live at L'Amour East, Queens, New York on August 10, 1983. Includes liner notes by Gary Graff.
The harbingers of British metal's new wave at the dawn of the 1980s, Motorhead toughened the hard-rock sound of the previous decade with a sheath of biker black leather and a broth of intoxicants. Collectables Records has put together a sampling of their best songs performed live, with an interview with mole-sporting leader Lemmy as a chaser. As a live band, Motorhead's black tar rumble takes on an even more chaotic feel, while classics like "Back at the Funny Farm" and "Marching Off to War" acquire a rugged new life.
Another addition to Motorhead's already burgeoning live-album discography, King Biscuit Flower Hour preserves a show the group recorded for the syndicated radio program on August 10, 1983, in Queens, N.Y. Original guitarist "Fast" Eddie Clarke had already departed, and former Thin Lizzy member Brian Robertson had taken his place for the Another Perfect Day album, which the band was supporting here. Despite Robertson's greater technical skill, this wasn't the most inspired time of Motorhead's career (both in terms of material and performance), and since the fidelity isn't quite as good here as on many other King Biscuit albums, only more devoted fans need apply. ~ Steve Huey
Although 1983's Motorhead line-up (bassist Lemmy, guitarist Brian Robertson, and drummer Phil Taylor) proved to be the most short-lived of the band's lengthy career, a few live sets have surfaced on CD, most recently KING BISCUIT FLOWER HOUR. The eight track disc features selections from the often overlooked ANOTHER PERFECT DAY album, recorded live in New York on August 10, 1983.
The sound quality is a noticeable step below hi-fi, but spirited renditions of such rockers as "Iron Horse/Born to Lose," "Another Perfect Day," and "Shine" prove to be standouts. An interview with Motorhead leader/founder Lemmy is also included. Live Review

Live
 $9.69  
Blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan was already a legend when he was killed in a helicopter crash in 1990. Like all talents who die early, he has left behind a legacy of myths and stories concerning his complex life and persona. This very special video release -- which contains a 1983 and a 1989 appearance on the television show "Austin City Limits" -- provide a glimpse into the mythical musician at the beginning and the end of his short career. Eleven tracks are virtuostically performed here; half by the young, newly successful Vaughan, and half by an older, calmer and more together Vaughan. An intriguing musical look at the evolution of a man who became a myth.
DVD. 2 performances fr. PBS' Austin City Limits. 1983 & 1989 @ U. of TX. Pride & Joy, Voodoo Chile, Little Wing (w/ footage of Stevie w/ glimpses of Leadbelly, Hend rix, Big Bill Broonzy, T-Bone Walker, Albert King, & Albert Collins holding SRV Stratocasters), more.

Live Recording
Personnel: Rick Medlocke (vocals, guitar, acoustic guitar, 12-string guitar); Greg T. Walker (vocals, bass guitar); Jakson "Thunderfoot" Spires (vocals, drums); Pamela Vincent, Cynthia Douglas, Donna Davis (vocals, background vocals); Charlie Hargrett (guitar, acoustic guitar, 12-string guitar); Cub Koda, Shorty Medlocke (harmonica); Pat McCaffrey (keyboards); Henry Weck (percussion).
Recording information: Bee Jay Recording Studio, Orlando, FL; Sound Suite Recording Studios, Detroit, MI; Subterrenean Studios, Ann Arbor, MI.
After missing the boat with Lynyrd Skynyrd (for whom he played drums early on), guitarist/singer Rick Medlocke formed Blackfoot, arguably the first all-Native American rock group. The band struggled for almost a decade, playing run-of-the-mill Southern rock that they eventually injected with extra volume and attitude before signing with Atco, for whom they recorded their 1979 breakthrough Strikes. Known as a ferocious live unit and probably the heaviest of Southern rock bands (see opener "Road Fever"), Strikes also proved that Blackfoot could write great melodies for the gloomy "Left Turn on a Red Light" and the inspired cover version of Free's "Wishing Well." But the band's biggest hit would come in the form of the seven-minute "Highway Song," a tune that was admittedly very reminiscent ...
| | Black Sabbath Paranoid CD (1971)
Live
$8.89 
Black Sabbath: Ozzy Osbourne (vocals); Tony Iommi (guitar); Geezer Butler (bass instrument); Bill Ward (drums).
Paranoid was not only Black Sabbath's most popular record (it was a number one smash in the U.K., and "Paranoid" and "Iron Man" both scraped the U.S. charts despite virtually nonexistent radio play), it also stands as one of the greatest and most influential heavy metal albums of all time. Paranoid refined Black Sabbath's signature sound -- crushingly loud, minor-key dirges loosely based on heavy blues-rock -- and applied it to a newly consistent set of songs with utterly memorable riffs, most of which now rank as all-time metal classics. Where the extended, multi-sectioned songs on the debut sometimes felt like aimless jams, their counterparts on Paranoid have been given focus and direction, lending an epic drama to now-standards like "War Pigs" and "Iron Man" (which sports one of the most immediately identifiable riffs in metal history). The subject matter is unrelentingly, obsessively dark, covering both supernatural/sci-fi horrors and the real-life traumas of death, war, nuclear annihilation, mental illness, drug hallucinations, and narcotic abuse. Yet Sabbath makes it totally convincing, thanks to the crawling, muddled bleakness and bad-trip depression evoked so frighteningly well by their music. Even the qualities that made critics deplore ...

Accept's most notorious album, Balls to the Wall was also their biggest commercial success. Following hot upon the heels of their creative breakthrough, Restless and Wild, you'd also be hard pressed to find a more sexually charged record in any musical genre. Its hysterically nonsensical lyrics notwithstanding, the legendary title track remains an irresistible, fist-pumping masterpiece that came to epitomize the modern, slow-marching metal anthem as it became known. And when paired with second single "London Leatherboys," it arguably constitutes the most blatantly homoerotic couplet in the history of heavy metal (eat your heart out, Rob Halford). "Fight It Back" is about as close as the band ...

Ever since the release of their 1981 release No Sleep 'til Hammersmith (one of heavy metal's all-time classic live albums, and a U.K. chart-topper), thrash metal pioneers Motörhead have been the subject of quite a few subsequent live sets, many of which appeared to be have been released without the approval of Lemmy and co. (1988's No Sleep at All, plus such archival releases as 1989's Blitzkrieg on Birmingham '77, 1997's King Biscuit Flower Hour, etc.). The ...

Live
$20.79
Here's the original wild woman of rock 'n' roll! She signed with RCA two months after Elvis and cut unvarnished rockabilly and rock 'n' roll for the next two years. RCA wasn't kidding when they dubbed her 'The Female Elvis'. Backed by the crack Nashville and New York session men, she cut 26 stellar cuts like Drugstore Rock 'n' Roll, Will You Willyum, My Boy Elvis, Bang Bang, Love Me To Pieces, Ooby Dooby, and Let's Elope Baby. All 26 RCA cuts are here together with a 1960 Palette session that included Teen Street and the honky tonk classic Cry Guitar. One of the Bear Family label's first CDs--and still one of the best!
Personnel includes: Janis Martin (vocals, guitar); Thomas Grady Martin (guitar, bass); George Barnes, Al Chernet, Tony Mottola, Danny Peri, Hank Garland, Jimmy Atkins, Dave Rich, Chet Atkins (guitar); George Berg (tenor saxophone); Andy Ackers, Joe Harnell, Floyd Cramer, Shorty Long (piano); Boyce Hawkins (organ); Sam Bruno, Arnold Fishkin, Bob Moore, Charles Grean (bass); Bunny Shawker, Murray M. "Buddy" Harman (drums); Jala Divigard, Jim Farmer, Bettye McCormick, Melvin Little Ryan, Jerry Duane, Marge Murphy, Dot Evans, Lew Anderson, Bob Miller (background vocals).
The Jordanaires: Neal Matthews, Jr., Hoyt H. Hawkins, Raymond C. Walker, Hugh Gordon Stoker.
Producers: Steve Sholes, Jeff Kluger, Chet Atkins.
Recorded at RCA Victor Studios and Owen Bradley Recording Studio, Nashville, Tennessee; RCA Victor Studio 1 and RCA Victor Studio 3, New York, New York. Includes liner notes by Bob Allen.
Digitally remastered by Bob Jones.
The only female rocker of the 1950s to blow Wanda Jackson out of the water, Janis Martin earned her moniker as "the female Elvis." The truth in that claim can be heard on this excellent compilation of her complete works, all of which were recorded between 1956 and 1960.
Personnel: Janis Martin (vocals); George Barnes, Al Chernet (guitar); Chet Atkins (electric guitar); Floyd Cramer, Shorty Long (piano); Murray Harman, Jr., Bunny Shawker (drums).

Thirty songs, and not a loser in the bunch. This little lady rocks -- hard -- and she doesn't start to slow down until 21 songs in. The best is sort of like Elvis' early RCA sides, only better, mixed with some wildness that makes one wonder if Sun Records wouldn't have been a better home for her. As it happens, Martin is a good enough singer ...

Finding its way to CD for the first time, the self-titled PARIS unites the talents of former Fleetwood Mac guitarist Bob Welchand and ex-bassist for Jethro Tull, Glenn Cornick.
Better known for the wistful romanticism of such songs as "Sentimental Lady" with Fleetwood Mac, Bob Welch has an eye toward Led Zeppelin here, tackling the roles of Robert Plant and Jimmy Page by himself. Former Jethro Tull bassist Glenn Cornick and former Nazz drummer Thom Mooney also participate. ~ Mark Allan
