 (12 Customer Reviews)
BOOM BOX is a limited edition deluxe set which includes THE SINGLES 1992-2003, EVERYTHING IN TIME a CD of remixes, B-sides and rare tracks, a DVD of music videos, and a DVD of LIVE IN THE TRAGIC KINGDOM.
Additional Personnel includes: Lady Saw, Bounty Killer, Ms. Dynamite, Sweetie Irie, Elvis Costello (vocals); Gabriel McNair (trombone, piano, keyboards); Stephen Bradley (trumpet, keyboards); Matthew Wilder (keyboards); Stuart Price, Sly Dunbar (programming).
No Doubt's strength has always been in its singles, from the band's early phase as a ska/punk-pop ensemble to their latter-day status as pop chart-toppers. The 15-song collection THE SINGLES features all of the band's hits, which are sequenced remarkably well. Gwen Stefani and the boys kick things off in an appropriately energetic fashion with their breakthrough single, "Just a Girl." The 1980s-influenced keyboard line of this jaunty track leads wonderfully into the group's deft cover of Talk Talk's '80s-pop classic "It's My Life," which sports a muscular, fuzzed-out bass backing and seems tailor-made for Stefani's plaintive vocals.
The mood shifts to a dancehall vibe with the ultra-catchy "Hey Baby," and the track listing continues like a giddy roller coaster ride, including the spry "Sunday Morning," the reggae-tinged "Underneath It All," the guitar-heavy "Spiderwebs," and the melancholy "Don't Speak." And as a fitting nod to No Doubt's long-time followers, this sure-footed retrospective closes with the rhythmic workout of "Trapped in a Box" from their self-titled first album, bringing the band's musical legacy full circle. Throw in an extra disc of rarities, plus a live concert film and videos on DVD, and you've got a No Doubt fan's ticket to heaven.
Includes liner notes by Paris Montoya and Tom Lanham.

Boom Box Music Review Average Rating: (4.9 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews No Doubt is the best
I had already brought the greatest hits CD when this boom box was released. But the B-sides CD and the two DVDs are so good that I had to get the boom box. I just love their videos. I was expecting 15 videos. Then I found 'It's My Life' on the DVD - that makes 16 videos! Yeah!!! The B-sides are great. No Doubt fans, this box set is NOT TO BE MISSED!!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Booming Box Set!
The Boom Box set is a great collection of the DVD Videos of No Doubt's greatest hits as well as musical CD's of these tracks and additional rarities - it is well worth picking up for the videos alone. Plus there is a detailed booklet enclosed!

Recorded between 1978 & 2001. Includes liner notes by Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, and Johnny Black.
A remarkable four-disc set of B-sides and rarities, JOIN THE DOTS serves as a sort of alternate history for the Cure, one of the world's most beloved post-punk/alt-rock bands. Painstakingly compiled by Cure frontman (and the group's only constant member) Robert Smith, DOTS provides dozens of glimpses into the literal flip-side ...

Process Recording Studios, Inc., Greensboro, North Carolina. Includes liner notes by Delfeayo Marsalis.
All songs written or co-written by Branford Marsalis except "Mona Lisas (And Mad Hatters)" (E. John/B.Taupin), "Some Shit At 78 BPM (The Scratch Opera)" (C. Martin) and "Hotter Than Hot" (K. Campbell/W. Henry/M. Witter/C. Martin).
For Branford Marsalis the challenge was not to bring jazz into hip hop--that's already been done. No, the challenge was to bring hip hop (among other forms) into jazz, to import the techniques, the poetry, the sounds and samples, and yet retain jazz's sense of swing; to create a music that did justice to both art forms, without patronizing either which, above all, emphasized the charm and grace of the songs.
Employing the same pseudonym that Cannonball Adderley had used some 30 years earlier, Buckshot LeFonque is Branford Marsalis' attempt to fuse jazz, hip hop and other popular forms into a coherent style. Perhaps fuse is the wrong word; maybe we should say re-fuse or reconnect; as in acknowledging the common roots all American music shares, going back many generations.
From the opening mood of "Buckshot Intro," with its smooth groove and funky turntable spinning, Marsalis' co-conspirator DJ Premier manages to ingratiate his programmed sources and samples smoothly into Branford's live aesthetic. On "Some Shit At 78 BPM" they bring samples of Ellington's "Anatomy Of A Murder" soundtrack to play inside a sardonic sound collage. The album's centerpiece, "Breakfast At Denny's" employs a similar approach over a riff with strong overtones of Dizzy Gillespie's "Salt Peanuts," as Branford's tenor leaps out of Earth's orbit.
As a solo artist, Branford Marsalis has largely stuck to the standard quartet setting. However, 1994's BUCKSHOT LEFONQUE is a major departure from the saxophonist's usual milieu. Marsalis is best known for his roots-driven, post-bop albums. This release, however, is a funky record that employs beats and scratches (courtesy of DJ ...
