38 Special,Charlie Daniels
Lynyrd Skynyrd: Johnny Van Zant (vocals); Rickey Medlocke, Hughie Thompson (acoustic, electric & slide guitars, background vocals); Gary Rossington (acoustic, electric & slide guitars); Billy Powell (keyboards); Leon Wilkeson (bass); Kenny Arnoff (drums); Dale-Krantz Rossington, Carol Chase (background vocals). Additional personnel includes: Charlie Daniels (vocals, guitar); .38 Special. Producers: Gary Rossington, Johnny Van Zant, Rickey Medlocke, Hughie Thomasson. Recorded at The Castle, Franklin, Tennessee. A Southern rock Christmas album? Hey, it makes as much sense as Run-DMC's "Christmas in Hollis," and the good news is that the Lynyrd Skynyrd boys--along with special guests the Charlie Daniels Band and .38 Special--truly get into the spirit with a nice mix of seasonal standards (rock and otherwise) and originals. Among the latter, the Daniels Band provides a frankly terrifying "Devil Went Down to Georgia"-derived take on "Santa Claus is Coming to Town," while Skynyrd crunch through Chuck Berry's "Run, Rudolph Run" with Stones-like aplomb. On the originals front, .38 Special score big with "Mama's Song," a Southern rock power pop hybrid in their best '80s style, although it must be said that these self-proclaimed wild-eyed Southern boys have a sentimental streak a mile wide (and when their song is followed by Skynyrd's near-obscene "Santa Claus Wants Some Lovin'," it's a tad disconcertin'...). In any case, the album concludes, nicely, with a little harmonizing by the entire Skynyrd family (kids, relatives, road crew, dogs, etc). Fun stuff.

Christmas Time Again
$16.29 Dokken: Don Dokken (vocals); Jeff Pilson (vocals, acoustic guitar, piano, Mellotron, keyboards, bass); Mick Brown (vocals, drums, perussion); Reb Beach (guitar). Principally recorded at 710 Studios, Redondo, California. This is a DVD-Audio disc. The DVD-Audio content can only be read by a DVD-Audio player. The Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS audio tracks provided on this disc will play on a standard DVD player. George Lynch departed the Dokken reunion following 1997's Shadowlife, handing the reins over to ex-Winger guitarist Reb Beach. Beach has more than enough chops to fill Lynch's shoes, and although he brings his own musical personality to the riffs and solos, the songs' melodies are still recognizably Dokken. Unfortunately, those melodies are typical of post-reunion Dokken more often than not, with the band seemingly struggling to come up with the big chorus hook and just not quite getting there (a problem, come to think of it, that sometimes ...
| | Toots & The Maytals In The Dark (1976)
Christmas Time Again
$16.29 This is a DVD-Audio disc. The DVD-Audio content can only be read by a DVD-Audio player. The Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS audio tracks provided on this disc will play on a standard DVD player. In the Dark is a ska/reggae classic that captures the Maytals in their prime, brimming with energy. In the group's music, the positive vibrations of reggae and the deep soul of singer Frederick "Toots" Hibbert are united and elevated by a pervasive spirituality. Exuding warmth and goodwill, Toots & the Maytals seek to excise their sorrows through joyful celebration and praise. "Got to Be There" sets the mood perfectly with its jubilant roll call into heaven. Hibbert's religious concerns are equally strong on "In the Dark," a song directed at those lacking belief. But he continually succeeds in reaching across lines of strict faith. The emotions in the Maytals' music always defy such boundaries. Similarly, this soulful reggae blend has the power to communicate to diverse musical tastes, reggae converts and unbelievers alike. "I'm from Jamaica/I want to do my Jamaican stuff," sings Toots, inviting everyone to watch and listen. Backing him is a formidable rhythmic force, capable of luring anyone out onto the dancefloor. At times, the grooves are so dense with reggae's characteristic syncopation that rhythms seem to spring forth from multiple directions. "Time Tough" layers organ stabs, chopping reggae rhythms, and tight, coiled guitar lines along with call and response vocals. In the Dark's classic status may be assured from three songs alone: signature numbers "54-46 Was My Number," "Time Tough," and the Maytals' rendition of John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" (which sounds like it was written for Hibbert to sing). But the Maytals hit the mark with every song on this collection. Like the best of the blues, gospel, and soul, they turn struggle into strength. When Hibbert sings "I'm so lonely/I'm so blue" on "In the Dark," he makes the emotions seem ...

| | Heptones Cool Rasta (2002)
Christmas Time Again
$16.09 COOL RASTA contains the BOOK OF RULES album and various rare recordings. The Heptones: Leroy Sibbles, Earl Morgan, Barry Llewellyn. Includes liner notes by Dave Hendley. All tracks have been digitally remastered. This is a DVD-Audio disc. The DVD-Audio content can only be read by a DVD-Audio player. The Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS audio tracks provided on this disc will play on a standard DVD player. Cool Rasta is essentially an updated DVD audio version of the Heptones' 1973 Book of Rules album, with the smooth and spooky "Cool Rasta" and "Dreadlock" added, along with a handful of rare dub mixes, all done in stellar 5.1 surround sound. The original sessions were produced by Harry Johnson (Harry J), and although some of these tracks now seem a little flat and uninspired, "Cool Rasta" and "Book of Rules," in particular, are standouts, ranking easily among the best numbers the Heptones ever recorded. There are two dub mixes of "Rules" included here (one is titled "Ganja"), and it is interesting to see the subtle changes that happen in these versions. The additional tracks fit remarkably well with the original cuts, making an interesting album even more so. ~ Steve Leggett The Heptones were one of the first--if not THE first--reggae vocal groups, and also one of the finest--beginning in the mid-1960s, they had a three-part, gospel-tinged, R&B-based harmony sound that became the outline for nearly all successive rocksteady and reggae harmony groups. Preceding their '70s classics NIGHT FOOD and PARTY TIME by several years, COOL RASTA is a collection of their earliest, most righteous, groove-heavy tunes, including ...
