The early 21st century saw the sudden arrival of several Run-D.M.C. compilations -- two each in 2002 (Greatest Hits and High Profile -- The Original Rhymes) and 2003 (The Best of Run DMC and Ultimate Run DMC), as well as an additional title in 2004 (Artist Collection). Weighing in at 14 tracks total, Artist Collection does an admirable job of collecting most of the expected favorites from this incredibly influential rap act, as well as a handful of tracks not included on the other comps. Kicking things off in grand style with the Run-D.M.C.-Aerosmith remake of "Walk This Way" (one of the top hits of 1986), you'll find such additional classics as "Rock Box," "It's Tricky," and "It's Like That," in addition to such oft-overlooked cuts as "You're Blind," "Can You Rock It Like This," and "Tougher Than Leather." While Ultimate Run DMC remains the very best Run-D.M.C. collection out there, Artist Collection is certainly not far behind. ~ Greg Prato

Purchase Artist Collection CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | The Ultimate Bee Gees CDs (2009)
Artist Collection
 $18.94   
Functioning as something of a replacement for the 2001 collection Their Greatest Hits: The Record, The Ultimate Bee Gees covers much of the same ground as that double-disc set, albeit in not quite so linear a fashion. The Record marched through its 40 tracks chronologically, opening with the stately baroque Beatlesque pop of the '60s and then winding through the '70s, whereas this opens with the bright, fabulous blast of "You Should Be Dancing" and remains in their late-'70s heyday for a while before fast-forwarding to such latter-day adult contemporary hits as "One." We don't get to "I've Gotta Get ...
| | Eminem Relapse CD (2009)
Artist Collection
$10.85 
Lyrical acrobat Slim Shady returns after a five-year absence with his fifth major label release, continuing to strike the perfect balance between brooding insight and absolute silliness on 2009's RELAPSE. Opening single "Crack a Bottle" reunites Detroit's maddest rapper with his superstar mentor (Dr. Dre) and protege (50 Cent) on a fittingly funky tour de force.
Eminem's RELAPSE, a double album released after five years of recorded silence, a record featuring Dr. Dre behind the boards for the first time since 2000, faced no shortage of the relentless pressure of expectations. A narrative of survival after facing down his demons in rehab unfurled with Eminem's usual twisted Swift-ian wit, RELAPSE should disappoint few fans (or critics for that matter) with its patented mix of hilariously spit ...

| | Hall & Oates Do What You Want Be What You Are: The Music of Daryl Hall John Oates CDs (2009)
Artist Collection
$38.65
It's telling that DO WHAT YOU WANT TO BE WHAT YOU ARE, Sony/Legacy's comprehensive, career-spanning Daryl Hall and John Oates box set, takes its title from a moderately successful mid-'70s single from the duo, written and recorded just as the group was hitting their creative stride. The slow Philly groove of "Do What You Want Be Who You Are" may have hearkened back to the duo's soul roots, side-stepping some of the outré pop experiments they had done just two years earlier on War Babies, but Hall & Oates took the title's sentiment to heart, blurring boundaries between rock, pop, and soul in a way that wasn't always easy to appreciate at the peak of their popularity in the '80s. During that decade, Hall & Oates were omnipresent, seemingly dominating every radio format and MTV, racking up so many hits that it was easy to overlook how "Private Eyes" wore bright, angular New Wave threads, or how "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)" pulsated on electronic rhythms, not to mention the duo's earliest folk-rock records. DO WHAT YOU WANT TO BE brings all this into perspective, rounding up all the group's big hits and sharply selected album tracks, enhancing the canon with several rarities ranging from early singles (Hall as a member of the Temptones, Oates as one of the Masters) to a host of live cuts from throughout the years. Many of the live tracks are mildly revelatory--particularly the lengthy stretch of WAR BABIES material at the end ...
| | Portishead Dummy CD (1994)
Artist Collection
$11.49 
Named for a town near Bristol, England, Portishead is a British dance band that grabs ideas from all over the mod pop world (spaghetti Western guitars, turntable scratching, melancholy soul vocals, atmospheric organs, house beats) and stirs them into spacey, dub-like productions that sound like a dance club in the middle of a "Twin Peaks" dream. You could call it surreal hip-hop pop. But if the ...

CJ Baker’sCooler ‘Cause We’re OlderA country music CD with special emphasis on three things: Lyrics, lyrics and lyrics. This CD is filled with twelve of CJ’s own songs on a wealth of topics and in a style ranging from Cajun and Mountain to Blues and back to down home Country. This project developed as a result of many songs CJ had written and was using in his show. Because many folks began asking about getting a copy of these songs, it became obvious a CD was the answer. These songs are based on CJ's experiences in life, and many are about family or friend's situations. It was paramount to CJ that these songs have lyrical strength and musical variety to satisfy his artistic instincts. Proceeds raised from CD sales is donated to educational foundations and life enrichment programs for children. Check out CJ’s Songbook for song lyrics/chords at ...
