The work of the Boomtown Rats is often overshadowed by the later humanitarian achievements of lead singer Bob Geldof, who went on to organize Band Aid and the Live Aid concerts. But this 20th Century Masters Best Of collection reminds us that the Rats were a unique band in the punk milieu of the late '70s. With a mixture of soul, New Wave edginess, and saxophone and piano-driven rock & roll, the Rats sometimes resembled an Irish version of Bruce Springsteen and the E. Street band. They had a long string of singles in England, almost all of which are accounted for here, including "Like Clockwork," "Rat Trap," and "I Don't Like Mondays" (the band's only U.S. hit).
Boomtown Rats: Gerry Roberts (vocals, guitar); Bob Geldof (vocals); Johnnie Fingers (keyboards); Pete Briquette (bass guitar); Simon Crowe (drums).

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best Of The Boomtown Rats
$10.49 
Despite founding guitarist Vivian Campbell's departure from Dio just a few months after the release of 1985's SACRED HEART, the band took to the road in the summer of '86 with replacement guitarist Craig Goldie in tow. To introduce the new lineup to fans, Dio issued its first live recording, the six-song INTERMISSION EP. Five of the tracks were recorded in concert and featured ...
| | Jethro Tull Aqualung Live CD (2005)
20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best Of The Boomtown Rats
$10.19 
Each era of rock music has had its own craftily marketed phenomenon -- it was the "live album" in the '70s, "unplugged" recordings in the '90s, and since the late '80s through the present day, the "tribute album." But the early 21st century saw another addition -- veteran bands revisiting classic albums and performing them in their entirety. Jethro Tull's most enduring release is largely agreed to be 1971's classic Aqualung, and in late 2004 Ian Anderson, Martin Barre, and their latest Tull mates dusted off the album once more in front of a small audience for XM Radio's Then Again Live series. Since 33 years had passed between the original and the re-reading, the performances on Aqualung Live are slightly more restrained. And while some of Barre's mighty riffs can still be spotted blaring away -- most notably the middle bit of "My God" -- other songs get an overhauling, such ...

| | Chris Tietjen Eins A: 12" Selection CD (2006)
20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best Of The Boomtown Rats
$14.09
A combination label sampler and mix disc, Eins A finds Chris Tietjen drawing liberally from the Cocoon roster to create an enjoyable 11-track overview of some highlights from the label's five-year history. Starting with the ten-minute plus soothing raindrop sparkle/aggro pulse slam of Jacek Sienkiewicz's "Dream Machine" providing a suitably slow-rise beginning to the overall experience, Tietjen keep things moving well, not a jaw-dropping set but definitely one with skill that finds variety in the intentionally stripped-down template. Cocoon's house style, for lack of a better word, finds a balance between more minimal experimenters and glorious, up front pop ...
