| | Bob Marley Soul Rebels DVD Audio Bob Marley Discography of CDs
Licensed from its original label (Trojan Recordings), this release on Receiver is a reissue of the original 1970 Bob Marley and the Wailers album produced by Lee "Scratch" Perry. The disc is the same, from the track list right down to the sexist commando cover art, and these imminently groovy, R&B-flavored pop gems show no signs of wear.
Marley's compositions from this period, though often overlooked, are excellent. Such tracks as "Try Me," "It's Alright," "Soul Almighty," and "No Water" give off such a unique stylistic charge that they seem particularly fresh in the light of the overkill in Marley's later catalog. Close, sweet backup vocals by the Wailers, tight, propulsive playing from the Upsetters, and Perry's inventive, psychedelic production make this one of the truly great "lost" albums. A must for collectors and a superb introduction to Marley's early, mature work, SOUL REBELS is a keeper.Q (12/02, p.126) - 5 out of 5 - "...These tracks are a watershed in reggae: spare, thunderous, gorgeously melodic and a blueprint for the deep 'roots' sound that would dominate the rest of the decade..." Mojo (Publisher) (3/01/04, p.53) - Included in Mojo's The 67 Lost Albums You Must Own! - "It's fantastic stuff, bridging rocksteady and the later, more evolved AFRICAN HERBSMAN material."

| | Jennifer Warnes Famous Blue Raincoat CD (1987) Import
Soul Rebels CD music
$12.79 Like Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen has the distinction of being a superior songwriter whose often-covered songs seldom rival the original (due in part to Cohen's inimitable voice). That changed with the appearance of Jennifer Warnes' FAMOUS BLUE RAINCOAT. Best known for her soft rock-oriented pop material, Warnes took a surprising (and critically acclaimed) turn on a this collection of first-rate interpretations. Cohen and Warnes worked together on the album (he duets with her on "Joan of Arc"), so these versions carry the poetic depth and breadth of Cohen's original vision. The arrangements might be glossy compared to Cohen's stark originals, but they also suit Warnes' smooth, accomplished ...
| | Essential Peter Tosh CD (2003) Remastered
Soul Rebels music CDs
$7.59 The Peter Tosh entry in Sony's The Essential series of best-ofs is a reasonable selection from Tosh's limited catalog of Columbia Records recordings, which includes only two studio albums, Legalize It (1976) and Equal Rights (1977), plus a belatedly released concert album, Live & Dangerous Boston 1976 (2001). In 1999, Columbia/Legacy released Scrolls of the Prophet: The Best of Peter Tosh, which included material from both the Columbia studio albums and Tosh's subsequent tenure on the Rolling Stones and EMI America labels (1978-1987), making that collection more comprehensive than this one. However, The Essential does contain "Why Must I Cry," an excellent song co-written by Bob Marley that is not found on Scrolls of the Prophet, as well as a live version of the Wailers classic "400 Years" also missing from the earlier disc. ~ William Ruhlmann

| | Allman Brothers Band Live At Fillmore East CDs (1971) Hybrid; SACD Hybrid; Deluxe Edition
Soul Rebels songs
$20.35 Recorded live at the Fillmore East, New York, New York on March 12-13, 1971. Originally released on Capricorn.
Ultradiscs are mastered from the original master tapes using Mobile Fidelity's proprietary mastering technique, then plated with 24-karat gold and housed in a stress-resistant lift-lock jewel box.
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.
The original Fillmore East album is one of the finest live documents of the rock era, capturing the original line-up of one of the '70s' tightest outfits before they were cruelly robbed of Duane Allman and Berry Oakley. Taken from five 1971 performances at New York's fabled Fillmore East, the extended and effortlessly melodic workouts of "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed" and "Whipping Post" still have the power to rivet and move.
On display here is the Allmans' fabled chemistry at its finest. The band not only rocks, it rolls, swings, and stretches out in exploratory, jazzy passages. ...

Soul Rebels CD music
$15.79 After establishing itself as a hard-rock giant, thanks to endless touring and the release of such milestone records as MACHINE HEAD and IN ROCK, Deep Purple was in a state of turmoil when it went into the studio to record 1972's WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE? Despite all the infighting, the band pulled together long enough to record seven tracks that only bolstered the band's reputation.

| | Widespread Panic Ball (2003)
Soul Rebels songs
$16.09 Of the many Southern-based "jam bands" that garnered large followings in the wake of Jerry Garcia and The Grateful Dead's untimely demise, Widespread Panic is perhaps the only ensemble to both fully explore the progressive tendencies touched on by contemporaries like Phish and Dave Matthews, and accurately capture the Dead's rootsy, homespun hippy vibe. While Widespread Panic have never equaled the Dead in terms of songwriting, on BALL, the band makes a significant leap forward in this department. WP properly balances its trademark butt-shaking, percussion-fueled Southern boogie grooves with just enough hooks to attract those who generally use the bass solo as an opportunity to ...
