Mandolin Boogie combines the Armstrong Twins' first recordings from the late '40s and early '50s with their reunion session recorded specifically for the Arhoolie label in 1979. It's amazing that the brothers' sparkling close harmonies and Lloyd Armstrong's unique and nimble mandolin runs were sustained almost 30 years after they started making records; the only real difference between the sessions is the recording technology that was used. Tinged with a combination of bluegrass and traditional country, these 17 tracks include Floyd Armstrong's original compositions "Mandolin Boogie," "Alabama Baby," and "Arkansas Special," as well as Americana standards such as "That Silver Haired Daddy of Mine" and "Greenback Dollar" and religious material that includes "Address From Heaven," "Why Not Confess," and "Mother's Only Sleeping." As a side note, the Arhoolie sessions also feature Zane Beck on Dobro and Monte Avery on bass. ~ Al Campbell

| | Jefferson Airplane After Bathing At Baxter's CD (1967) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Mandolin Boogie CD music
$7.59  
This newly remastered 2003 deluxe edition contains bonus tracks.
Bitten by the '60s San Francisco bug of extended musical explorations, the Jefferson Airplane flew into song-suites on AFTER BATHING AT BAXTER'S. But rather than being an organic jam-fest, BAXTER'S took the Airplane's singular white R&B jams and bled them into one another. The "Streetmasse" suite, for instance, combines two typically electrifying Airplane performances--"The Ballad Of You & Me & Pooneil" and "Young Girl Sunday Blues," both of which give off the adrenaline of an Americanized early Who with female harmony vocals--through a warped pastiche of vocal and percussive noodling ("A Small Package Of Value Will Come To You, Shortly").
San Francisco's cultural evolution didn't just affect the structure of the songs on AFTER BATHING AT BAXTER'S. No longer hiding behind the metaphors of the first two albums, the Airplane were now openly voicing the ...

This newly remastered 2003 deluxe edition contains bonus tracks.
Originally released on RCA Victor (4058). Includes liner notes by Jeff Tamarkin and Bill Thompson.
CROWN OF CREATION is a rich and varied collection showing off the different talents of the main songwriters. Among the many memorable moments are Grace Slick's beautiful vocal on "Lather," the band's sensitive cover version of David Crosby's "Triad," and Jorma Kaukonen's stunning wah-wah solo on "If You Feel." Add to this the intense lyrics (such as the drug-themed "Greasy Heart"), Marty Balin and Paul Kantner's consistently strong vocals throughout, and Jack Casady's remarkable dexterity on bass. This is most certainly the Airplane's REVOLVER.
The group's fourth ...
| | Dave Holland Extended Play: Live At Birdland CDs (2003)
Mandolin Boogie songs
$21.15 
EXTENDED PLAY was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Album.
With a front line that features saxophone, trombone, and vibraphone/marimba, the Dave Holland Quintet features an immediately identifiable band sound. As for backing, bassist Holland and traps man Billy Kilson provide a push-me-pull-you, supple and responsive rhythm section that is an embarrassment of riches when it comes to accompaniment ideas.
The thing that separates the men from the boys ...

Mandolin Boogie CD music
$7.59
In the liner notes of ONLY YOU, crooner Harry Connick tells how the impetus for the album was Columbia honcho Donny Ienner's request for the singer to record some songs from Ienner's youth (1950s/'60s hits). Whether this was an entreaty or an ultimatum, Connick sagely turned it to his advantage, inching up a decade or two ...

| | Rodney Crowell Collection CD (1989)
Mandolin Boogie album
$10.39
Pivotal membership in Emmylou Harris' Hot Band and his marriage to Nashville royalty Roseanne Cash probably didn't hurt, but Rodney Crowell's emergence as one of the leading figures of the '80s return to traditional country styles was primarily due to his clear talent as a songwriter and singer. The 12-track THE RODNEY CROWELL COLLECTION, released to capitalize on the critical and commercial success of 1989's KEYS TO THE HIGHWAY, compiles the best moments of his late '70s and early '80s work for Warner Brothers.
Gathering hit singles and key album tracks, the set is a near-chronological overview of Crowell's progression, from his rock-tinged earliest songs, to more stripped-down and acoustic material, which pointed towards his later work for Columbia and MCA. ...
