Additional personnel: Robert Fripp (guitar); Nic Potter (bass).
The foreboding crawl of the Hammond organ is what made Van Der Graaf Generator one of the darkest and most engrossing of all the early progressive bands. On H to He Who Am the Only One, the brooding tones of synthesizer and oscillator along with Peter Hammil's distinct and overly ominous voice make it one of this British band's best efforts. Kicking off with the prog classic "Killer," an eight minute synthesized feast of menacing tones and threatening lyrics, the album slowly becomes shadowed with Van Der Graaf's sinister instrumental moodiness. With superb percussion work via Guy Evans, who utilizes the tympani drum to its full extent, tracks like "The Emperor in His War-Room" and "Lost" are embraced with a blackened texture that never fades. The effective use of saxophone (both alto and tenor) and baritone from David Jackson gives the somberness some life without taking away any of the instrumental petulance. H to He is carpeted with a science fiction theme, bolstered by the bleak but extremely compelling use of heavy tones and the absence of rhythms and flighty pulsations. This album, which represents Van Der Graaf in their most illustrious stage, is a pristine example of how dark progressive rock should sound. ~ Mike DeGagne

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Another Beautiful Piece of Art
From the dark opener Killer to the bonus track Emperor In His War Room this album is full of the most beautiful yet aggressive music in the progressive rock movement of the 70s.

4 stars Dark Progressive Rock at its best
Its great to hear this album in the remastered form. The organ lays a forboding foundation for great vocals and an avant garde jazz/rock instrumentation that gives these guys a unique sound. Like any great music, it takes a few listens but will grow on you

Full Title - Great Ladies Of Rock & Roll The 60's. Highlights include Aretha Franklin 'Respect,' The Supremes 'Stop In The Name Of Love' and Petula Clark 'Downtown.' Collectables. 2002. This CD was packaged for and promoted by WJMK, Chicago, Illinois.
This CD was packaged for and promoted by WODS, Boston, Massachusetts.
This CD was packaged for and promoted by WSNI, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Liner Note Author: Al Fichera.
WSNI: Great Ladies of Rock 'N' Roll 60's includes 25 pop and R&B standards from Aretha Franklin, Petula Clark, and Dionne Warwick, along with one-hit wonders Toys ("A Lover's Concerto"), Patty & the Emblems ("Mixed Up, Shook Up Girl"), and Murmaids ("Popsicles and Icicles"). While the packaging is drab, the sound quality is decent, making this an affordable way to pick up these classic oldies. ~ Al Campbell
Great Ladies of Rock & Roll -- The '60s offers 25 tracks of the best female-fronted pop music during a decade when they often reigned supreme. Any compiler would be hard-pressed to outdo the selection here, which includes a parade of top tunes: "Respect," "Stop! In the Name of Love," "My Guy," "Dancing in the Street," "My Boyfriend's Back," and more (and yes, they are the original recordings). And despite the epoch that separated the beginning of the '60s to its end, this set is much more unified than other volumes in the same series. As often happens, Collectables' focus on sound quality isn't top-rate, but for the low price this one is usually offered for, it's difficult to complain too much. ~ John Bush

To say that motor-mouthed Twista and producer Toxic took their time getting Kamikaze out is an understatement. Released nearly five years after his last album and promoted by the rapper since 2001, Kamikaze finally dropped in one of the least popular months for music buying, January. The long-talked-about Timbaland team up ended up on Timbaland's ...
