Paul Peter & Mary - In These Times CD

In These Times buy CD music After working his way through loss and chaos on the brilliant TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT (recorded in 1973, but not released until 1975), Neil Young deftly exorcised any lingering demons with 1974's ON THE BEACH. The album opens with the saunter of the aptly titled "Walk On," followed by the utterly gorgeous, Wurlitzer-tinged "See the Sky about to Rain." The set also features a trio of scathing songs--"Revolution Blues," "Vampire Blues," and "Ambulance Blues"--that address issues important to Young, both social and personal. It is good to hear Young back with such bite and vitriol, especially after the broken desperation of TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT. But while ON THE BEACH is edgy and deeply felt, it also manages to sound liberating and relaxed, with glimmers of hope and humor peeking through the spare, evocative arrangements. Inexplicably unreleased on CD until 2003, ON THE BEACH is both unflinching and resilient, and easily stands as one of Young's finest albums.

In These Times CD music This newly remastered 2003 deluxe edition contains bonus tracks. Originally released on RCA Victor (3766). Includes liner notes by Jeff Tamarkin and Bill Thompson. From the opening, hard-edged chords of "She Has Funny Cars," it's apparent that SURREALISTIC PILLOW, Jefferson Airplane's sophomore effort, is a far more spiky beast than the band's debut. It became not only San Francisco's soundtrack to the Summer Of Love, but all of America's. It spawned two Top Ten classics ("Somebody To Love" and "White Rabbit") and established the Airplane as one of the main pop voices of the cultural revolution. Some of the newfound dynamism can be attributed to personnel changes. Singer-keyboardist Grace Slick, who joined the Airplane following a stint in the mildly successful Great Society, had a unique artistic gleam her predecessor, Signe Anderson, never possessed--both of the aforementioned hits were songs she'd written for her former band. And new drummer Spencer Dryden could make the music shake with heretofore-unheard polyrhythms, or walk a straight line with militaristic precision. SURREALISTIC PILLOW's other strengths lay in the band's boldly diverse sound. Effortlessly gliding from twisted Motown (the electrified "3/5 Of A Mile In 10 Seconds"), to Dylanesque rock (Balin's "Plastic Fantastic Lover") to an acoustic, psychedelic bluegrass instrumental (Kaukonen's "Embryonic Journey"), the Airplane proved themselves able to at once interpret the cultural tide and make it radio-friendly. Originally released in 1967, this RCA/BMG Heritage remastered reissue adds 6 bonus tracks 'In The Morning', 'J.P.P. Me Stop B. Blues', 'Go To Her', 'Come Back Baby', 'Somebody To Love' (mono single version) & 'White Rabbit' (mono single version). This groundbreaking piece of folk-rock-based psychedelia includes a 12-page booklet with extensive liner notes, detailed track listing & rare photos.

In These Times album for sale In 1964, when the Beatles where still singing "I Want to Hold Your Hand," Bob Dylan was quietly making history at New York's Philharmonic Hall (now Avery Fisher Hall). ANOTHER SIDE OF BOB DYLAN had recently been released, but even the flights of fancy on "Spanish Harlem Incident" and "To Ramona" (both performed here), while unprecedented, couldn't have prepared the audience for the Big Bang of songwriting represented by the still-unrecorded "Gates of Eden" and "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)." In a voice full of youthful vitality and insouciance, Dylan delivered groundbreaking poetic epics to a crowd that must have been equally confounded and exhilarated. Disc Two contains more of Dylan's older, more conventional material as well as four duets with Joan Baez, including the folk ballad "Silver Dagger," which Dylan would never record. As full of life as this second half of the Philharmonic concert is, it still serves as a breath-catching period in the wake of the world-changing new songs heard in the first set. Probably only a few of those in attendance realized it at the time, but music would never be the same again. Includes a 52-page booklet. Concert At Philhamonic Hall. 2cds. Recorded at Philharmonic Hall, New York, New York on October 31, 1964. Includes liner notes by Sean Wilentz. Personnel: Bob Dylan (vocals, acoustic guitar); Joan Baez. Audio Mixer: Michael Brauer. Liner Note Authors: Robert Shelton; Bob Dylan. Recording information: Philharmonic Hall, New York, NY (10/31/1964). Photographers: Hank Parker; Daniel Kramer; Sandy Speiser; Barry Feinstein; Douglas R. Gilbert. Arrangers: Joan Baez; Bob Dylan.

In These Times CD music Steve Earle is widely known as a tireless political activist who's not afraid to use his music to further the causes for which he fights. In 2004, America was in dire need of forward-looking activism, and Earle responded with THE REVOLUTION STARTS NOW. The album was written and recorded quickly in order for Earle to get his two cents in before the Presidential election, and it turned out to be both his most overtly political and most effectively concise offering to date. With a mix of country and straightforward rock & roll, Earle engages in rabble-rousing (the title track), tells the tales of people victimized by the war in Iraq ("Home to Houston," "Rich Man's War"), and lambasts stifling conservative forces on the homefront ("F the CC"). There are a couple of love songs thrown in for good measure, and they're all the more affecting for their marked contrast. THE REVOLUTION STARTS NOW seamlessly blends the personal and the political without a trace of mawkishness or didacticism. Recording information: Room & Board, Hermitage, TN.

Personnel: Steve Earle (vocals, guitar, mandola, harmonica, harmonium, organ); Steve Earle; Kelly Looney (vocals, bass guitar); Dr. Edward O. Henry, David Angell (violin); Chris Carmichael (viola); David Henry (cello); Eric Ambel (vocals, guitar); Will Rigby (vocals, drums, percussion); Emmylou Harris (vocals); Patrick Earle (percussion).

One of the most beloved and successful folk groups of all time, Peter, Paul & Mary are well represented by this impressive four-CD/one-DVD Rhino box set. Formed in New York City's Greenwich Village during the early 1960s, the trio--consisting of Peter Yarrow, Noel "Paul" Stookey, and Mary Travers--garnered a huge following with their thoughtful, easy-going performances of socially conscious tunes by lauded songsmiths such as Woody Guthrie ("This Land Is Your Land"), Pete Seeger ("If I Had a Hammer"), and a then relatively unknown troubadour from Minnesota named Bob Dylan ("Blowin' in the Wind"). These songs and many revered PP&M originals (most notably the gentle "Autumn to May" and the whimsical children's classic "Puff the Magic Dragon") are included on this collection, along with lesser-known tunes, rare concert recordings, and solo tracks by Yarrow, Stookey, and Travers. This remarkably comprehensive set is mainly geared towards PP&M's most adoring fans, but listeners seeking a pared-down compilation can find many of these selections on 2005's THE VERY BEST OF PETER, PAUL & MARY. This 4-CD/DVD combination box features more than 80 remastered tracks spanning 1956 through 2003, presenting original compositions and selections from songwriting greats Bob Dylan, Laura Nyro, Gordon Lightfoot, Tom Paxton, Pete Seeger, more. The DVD features vintage live performances and clips from their 1970 PBS documentary. Peter, Paul & Mary: Peter Yarrow, Noel Paul Stookey, Mary Travers. Producers include: Albert B.
