| | 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection: The Best Of Queen Latifah CD Queen Latifah Discography of CDs
With her success on stage, screen, and every place in between, it was only a matter of time before the powers that be revisited and celebrated the roots of Queen Latifah. This ten-song compilation features the first queen of hip-hop where's she at her best and at home: in the recording studio. Thankfully trimming away the fat from 2002's nearly definitive She's a Queen, 20th Century Masters represents most of her well-known songs in fine sequence and form. However, the most inexplicable omission is the song that embedded her in the collective consciousness of the hip-hop nation in the first place -- "Ladies First" is nowhere to be found, and keeps this from being a proper greatest-hits compilation. Nevertheless, it's still a nice if incomplete celebration of a landmark artist who will go down in history as one of the most important female artists in the male-dominated world of hip-hop. ~ Rob Theakston

1976's A NEW WORLD RECORD is both a classic of commercial '70s pop and an archetypal ELO album. From the outer-space synths and rich orchestrations that open the album to Jeff Lynne's meticulous production and Beatlesque melodies, A NEW WORLD RECORD is magnificent ear candy. Both ambitious enough to appeal to "serious" rock fans and ultra-catchy enough to sound terrific on Top 40 radio (the plaintively gorgeous, McCartney-like "Telephone Line" and the anthemic "Livin' Thing" were well-deserved smashes), ELO was one of the few '70s bands whose appeal covered both the FM and AM spectrums. The album even resurrects "Do Ya," a classic single by Lynne's former band, the Move, in a splashy new version.
The next ELO album, 1977's elaborate double-album OUT OF THIS WORLD, was probably the band's commercial high point, but A NEW WORLD RECORD is the group's artistic ...

20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection: The Best Of Queen Latifah album
$7.59
Jefferson Airplane were less focused in 1969 than they had been in the Summer of Love two years before. Recorded at the Fillmore East, these performances find the Airplane coming off their most recent album, Volunteers, released a month earlier, with the band a lot looser (drug use aside) and fractured. The factions in the group were presenting themselves during performances, and this set is no exception. Guitarist Jorma Kaukonen and bassist Jack Cassidy connected and jammed like they would have been just as content ...
