Rhino Flashback's Best of Southern Rock may seem diminutive (ten songs), but it successfully represents the genre that spawned the term boogie rock. There's no "Sweet Home Alabama" or "Ramblin' Man" here; instead the compilers have chosen to include works from some of the '70s lesser known acts like Black Oak Arkansas, Molly Hatchet, Blackfoot and Confederate Railroad, resulting in one of the more versatile collections of hard rock, blues and country rock. ~ James Christopher Monger
To call this compilation Best of Southern Rock is a bit of a misnomer, because it really isn't. The performances selected here aren't exactly the highest of quality, to say nothing of the heinous omission of the Allman Brothers from this elite group of Southern rockers. Recorded live over a five-year span from 1996-2001, it features some of the most respected and iconic figures of Southern rock performing some of their greatest songs. Appropriately starting off with Lynyrd Skynyrd's classic "Sweet Home Alabama," the compilation wastes no time in getting down to business, taking cuts from .38 Special, Van Zant, the Fabulous Thunderbirds, and the always hard rockin' gurus Molly Hatchet. While the inclusion of some songs over others may leave die-hard fans scratching their heads and inquiring where the big hits are, this economically sensible compilation is a nice showcase of the genre's finest bands, and serves as a nice stepping stone into a style of rock sorely undervalued in the rock & roll catalog. ~ Rob Theakston

Best Of Southern Rock album
$14.49 Buoyed by the popularity of the hit contemporary pop ballad "Home," singer Michael Bublé's 2005 album, IT'S TIME, clearly positioned the vocalist as the preeminent neo-crooner of his generation. Easily the singer's most stylistically wide-ranging album so far, 2009's CRAZY LOVE is also one of his brightest, poppiest, and most fun. Bublé kicks things off with the theatrical, epic ballad "Cry ...
| | Shakira She Wolf CD (2009)
Best Of Southern Rock CD music
$11.18 Last time around, Shakira touched upon so many styles she couldn't be contained on one album, splitting Oral Fixation in two. This time, she focuses on one sound only: a pulsating electro-disco that crosses all boundaries and welcomes all nationalities. Such concentration behooves Shakira, freeing her to release her inner She Wolf, a wild wacko who's as coo coo as she is carnal. And for as sexy as Shakira is -- crucially, her music is sexy too -- what really gives She Wolf its bite is her inspired nuttiness, how she laments that Matt Damon's not meant for her, and wishes her ex-lover ...

Best Of Southern Rock songs
$10.25 Futurama-Lab. is a label in Kyoto, Japan, focused on unprecedented electronic music mixing ambient, electronica, techno, experimental and so on.The composers have a wide variety of interests in music and so their tracks also vary widely. From them, we selected tunes close to ambient music and released this compilation album.Maybe the tracks in this album can be classified broadly into ambient music. They have various ambience and each of them is composed of different stuffs. Listen, and you will find "ambience" accordant with your taste.In the following, we introduce the composers. Yuu Kagimoto (track 1, 9)His two tracks in this CD are spiritual and elaborate techno-ambient music using the sound of well-controlled synthesizers. His voice is also used effectively in track 1. Yuu Kagimoto seems to have tried to express images coming from deep inside him as sound. He is good at making music for 'interactive arts' which connect 'music' and 'images'. These tracks will evoke some images that listeners have never seen before. Yuu Kagimoto's solo ambient album is also on sale at CDBaby. http://cdbaby.com/cd/kagimotoKomorian (track 2), routen (track 5)A programmer, hetting makes ambient sounds in the both units. Sounds of synthesizers and guitars are mixed well to produce warm atmosphere in the track of Komorian. Ryu, the vocalist and lyricist of routen has a great presence in track 5. His spontaneous song in Japanese is surrounded by the restrained ambient soundscape featuring synthesizer and noise from life, resulting in good ambient pops depicting Japanese beauty. sesqui (track 3, 11)In track 3, sesqui succeeded in combining ethnic elements and electronic sounds at the proportion peculiar to him. The electro-ethnic rhythm constructed by his own rhythmic sense is pleasant to the ear and you may be involved in the waves of rhythm. In contrast, sesqui tried to describe the beauty of Japanese garden in track 11. Sound elements made by synthesizers are properly dispersed as rocks in Japanese garden are. You can soak up the ambient deeply.grainrain ...
