(1 Customer Review)
This 15-track collection presents those singles and other fine moments from Cracker's Virgin Records tenure (1992-2001), including the funky "Get Off This" and the punk-tinged "I Hate My Generation." Though the group's popularity waned in the late 1990s, and Faragher departed (eventually joining Elvis Costello's backing band), Lowery and Hickman soldiered on, showing a surprising amount of resilience in the face of pesky musical trends. With its cherry-picked track listing, GET ON WITH IT is an excellent overview of the ensemble's peak material and serves as an ideal Cracker introduction.
Formed after the dissolution of Camper Van Beethoven, Cracker provided a slightly more conventional outlet for the quirky stylings of singer/songwriter David Lowery. Joined by guitarist Johnny Hickman, bassist Davey Faragher, and a Spinal Tap-like array of drummers, Lowery crafted smart-alecky alt-rock that won over a considerable following thanks to college-radio hits such as the surging "Teen Angst (What the World Needs Now)" and the incessantly catchy "Low."
Cracker: David Lowery.

The reviewers tell us what to buy, but the public actually part with the cash. Surely 26 million people cannot be wrong, as original Mac guitarist Peter Green's creation became the prime example of AOR long after his departure.

Best Of Cracker: Get On With It songs
$9.89 Many overlook the fact that Sylvester was as much of a soul artist as he was a disco artist, what with his gospel roots and his ability to wrap his voice around a slow, deliberate arrangement. That's a shame, since there are soul-loving disco haters who simply avoid Sylvester's records for his disco connections, not to mention his sexual orientation. He was one of the most versatile artists of his time, singing deeply and sensually ("Thinking Right") one moment and then reaching up for a type of falsetto that will either cause your goose pimples to rise or make you run for shelter ("Can't You See"). Too Hot to Sleep is one of his most refined and laid-back albums, a consistent but unremarkable one that puts a spotlight on his crooning (best heard on his version of "Ooo Baby Baby"). The problem with this record is that it seems too much like a compromise. It's lacking in personality and hardly captures all of what makes Sylvester Sylvester. [Fantasy reissued this album in 1999 and combined it with 1977's Sylvester; Too Hot to Sleep was retained as the title.] ~ Andy Kellman
In 1999, Fantasy reissued Sylvester's first and last albums for the label--Sylvester (1977) and Too Hot To Sleep (1981)--on this 74-minute CD. Both sessions point to the fact that no artist was no more consistently mindful of disco's northern soul and gospel roots than Sylvester, who made sure that his albums were as listenable as they were danceable. This CD is full of dance-floor classics--club hounds of the Disco Era were well aware of infectious gems like "Over and Over," "Down Down Down" and "Change" from Sylvester and "Give It Up (Don't Make Me Wait)" from Too Hot to Sleep. But Sylvester wasn't recording strictly for clubs, and his talents as a soulful, charismatic provider of slow jams and ballads are evident on "Loving Grows Up Slow," "Tipsong" and a superb cover of Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' "Ooh Baby Baby." Of course, Sylvester didn't escape the wrath of the knee-jerk disco bashers of the late 1970s ...
