| | Dick Gaughan Definitive Collection CD Dick Gaughan Discography of CDs
Calling this the definitive collection of Scottish singer, guitarist, and songwriter Dick Gaughan's long career is a bit of a stretch, but it does serve as a brief introduction to the different strains in his body of work. Drawn from sides recorded for the Topic and Greentrax imprints, it includes examples of his fine acoustic guitar playing ("Coppers and Brass/The Gander in the Pratie Hole"), his interpretations of the traditional Scottish story ballads he calls "muckle songs" (the tense and drone-driven "Dowie Dens O Yarrow"), his covers of contemporary songwriters (tunes by Lal Waterson, Hamish Henderson, and Ron Kavana), and his own songs ("Both Sides the Tweed," which closes things here). "Dowie Dens O Yarrow" is particularly powerful, as are Gaughan's versions of Lal and Mike Waterson's cinematic "Scarecrow" and Ashley Hutchings' rewritten and reformatted "Young Henry Martin." At a dozen tracks, though, this set only begins to scratch the surface of a nearly 40-year career. ~ Steve Leggett
Long considered one of the great "folk" voices of our time, Dick Gaughan is universally acknowledged as one of Scotland's most outstanding and uncompromising musicians - his vocal prowess, instrumental virtuosity and intelligence as a composer are legend

Purchase Definitive Collection CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Small Faces Ogden's Nut Gone Flake CDs (1968) England; Deluxe Edition
Definitive Collection album
 $33.25  
The Small Faces present their four disc U.K. import reissue release OGDEN'S NUT GONE FLAKE.
Having begun their career as the archetypal Mod band, the Small Faces latterly embraced traces of flower-power's whimsy. Astute enough not to sacrifice their identity, the quartet retained a distinctive perspective, as evinced by a string of superb pop singles, including "Here Comes The Nice" and "Itchycoo Park." A sense of pop melody and adventurism culminated on this album which encompassed tongue-in-cheek fun ("Lazy Sunday") and passionate love songs ("Afterglow"). Steve Marriott's voice remains completely self-assured and the group's characteristic organ-based swell is often enhanced by P.P. Arnold's emotional backing vocals. Eccentric comedian Stanley Unwin ...

Definitive Collection CD music
$17.79 
This two-fer from Beat Goes On features a pair of out-of-print Spirit LPs: Son of Spirit and Farther Along. Both originally released in 1976 on Mercury, these 22 tracks include some fine compositions, including "Stoney Night," "Magic Fairy Princess," and Lennon/McCartney's "Yesterday." This is an enjoyable reissue, but the absence of two original key members, vocalist Jay Ferguson and bassist Mark Anders, is felt. Most listeners ...

| | Donovan Mellow Yellow CD (1967) Bonus Tracks; England; Remastered
Definitive Collection songs
$11.65 
Digitally remastered English version contains nine bonus tracks ("Preachin' Love", "Good Time", "There Is A Mountain", "Superlungs" (Second Version), "Epistle To Dippy" (Alternative Arrangement), "Sidewalk (The Observation)" (Demo), "Writer In The Sun" (Demo), "Hampstead Incident" (Demo), and "Museum" (Demo)).
Originally released in 1967, MELLOW YELLOW is a US-only mishmash of singles, outtakes, and old album tracks featuring Donovan at his hippie-era peak. It blends fanciful psychedelia, like the title track--one of his finest singles--with earthier material like "House of Jansch" ...
