This boxset features Spandau Ballet's collected hits, demos, new mixes, a live disc and a disc of remixes.
Recorded between 1980 & 1984. Includes liner notes by Gary Kemp.
In 2003, the two-disc REFORMATION anthology heralded a sunny day for hardcore fans of long-defunct 1980s New Romantic heroes Spandau Ballet. REFORMATION isn't merely a hits collection (the single-disc GOLD: THE BEST OF SPANDAU BALLET had already done a fine job on that score). It contains enough rarities to make the hearts of Spandau maniacs leap with delight.
The early New Romantic scene was focused on clubbing and dancing, and Spandau's extended 12" mixes were an important element of the band's sound; a wealth of those are captured here, exhibiting the band in all its synth-riffing, bass-popping, white-funk glory. Demo versions of early singles "To Cut a Long Story Short" and "The Freeze" help illuminate how the band's sound first came together. Live version of later, more commercial material ("I'll Fly for You," "Highly Strung") show the degree to which Spandau Ballet eventually became arena-friendly pop stars, but there's more than enough choice early material on REFORMATION to keep the most uncompromising of Spandau fans extremely satisfied.

Reformation album
 $15.95   
This compilation contains 38 songs, including many new remixes from original master tapes, 6 previously unreleased songs, alternate versions of 3 others, and a comprehensive 36 page booklet, with historic liner notes and photos.
This excellent two-disc collection captures Poco's finest moments from the days when they were laying down the template for all the country-rock music that was to follow. It's hard to remember, but when the Eagles first hit the scene, they were thought by many to be a Poco-wannabe band. Listen to this set and you'll hear why. The Forgotten Trail (1969-1974) culls tracks from Poco's first eight albums, as well as unreleased cuts and singles. From the classic anthem "Pickin' Up the Pieces," which kicks things off, through "You Better Think Twice," "C'mon," ...

Except for first-class radio ringer "I Have the Skill," this record requires a modicum of work. But those who lock themselves inside the crystalline production recapture the lost prog of near-icons Gamma and Saga. This Aussie aggregate was once Sherbet, a '70s sensation down under, here striving for a more mature market, though a quirky pop sense still prevails, ...

Jane's Addiction's RITUAL DE LO HABITUAL, the band's third release, is one of the cornerstones of 1990s alternative rock. The album features the group's popular breakthrough hit "Been Caught Stealing," as well as such genre classics as "Stop!," "Ain't No Right," and "Classic Girl."
Also included are the back-to-back epics "Three Days" and "Then She Did," ...
| | String Quartet Tribute To Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young CD (2003)
Reformation music CDs
$15.19
There are two distinct ways of approaching classical instrumental versions of rock music. The most common is the big band technique: arranging the music for the largest possible orchestra and recording with the biggest sound imaginable. Less frequently utilized, but almost always more interesting and enduring, are the smaller scale re-thinkings of the music; taking it apart and rebuilding it with the notion that less can be more. The String Quartet Tribute To Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young fits into this second category, with Da Capo Chamber Players taking the core of the CSNY repertoire (and a few solo pieces by the members) and revoicing them for violin, viola, cello, and bass; usually keeping the same or similar tempos. It's amazing well how the violin, viola, and cello emulate the four voices of the group members, not to mention the timbres of their acoustic and electric guitars, all the while re-constructing them in their own terms. Additionally, this album is more successful in general terms than many of the other releases in this series, largely because the repertoire involved is so widely familiar: next to the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and Simon & Garfunkel, this may be the most accessible body of songs associated with the 1960s that one could draw upon -- one needn't know a great deal about CSNY, or even own any of their records, to recognize "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" or "Marrakesh Express." The latter is the most unusual track here: it's a chamber music Arabesque that is most easily recognizable through its tempo, the players bringing out undertones in the original piece that are usually ...

$9.69 
The 13th release, and the final to appear on Bearsville records, Zig-Zag Walk is an extension of Foghat's backslide into blues- and R&B-based guitar rock. With the glory years well behind them in 1983, the band was content to churn out this rather unremarkable yet competent recording of stripped-down boogie rock. Original members Lonesome Dave Peverett (lead guitars/vocals) and Roger Earl (drums) are joined on this 1983 release by longtime contributors Erick Cartwright (guitars) and ...
