Collection album
 $11.65 
The 1998 Holland collection Definitive Collection isn't really definitive, of course -- it's the kind of title common to budget-line discs or European and Asian-only compilations -- but it is a good sampler of ELO's hits all the same, containing 19 songs, including many, many hits: "Showdown," "Can't Get It out of My Head," "Evil Woman," "Strange Magic," "Livin' Thing," "Turn to Stone," "Don't Bring Me Down," and "Rock N' Roll Is King." There are enough absent hits and album tracks to make this not worth seeking out -- especially since the "Limited Gold Edition" statement on the back of the box does not mean that this is a remastered, audiophile gold disc -- but if it can be ...
| | Electric Light Orchestra No Answer - Expanded Version CD (1972) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Collection CD music
$7.65   
Here's one of the few rock urban legends that appears to be true: This album, eponymously titled in the rest of the world, was called NO ANSWER in the US because when a secretary at United Artists called the band's office to find out the title, no one was there, and a handwritten note to that effect was mistaken for the record's name.
This is less the first ELO album than the last Move album. Four of the nine tracks are by Move leader Roy Wood, and even the five Jeff Lynne tracks sound closer to the Move's classically orchestrated hard-rock masterpiece ...
| | Electric Light Orchestra Elo II CD (1973) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Expanded Edition
Collection music CDs
$7.59
Electric Light Orchetra Part II: Pete Haycock (vocals, guitar, bass); Eric Troyer (vocals, keyboards); Neil Lockwood (vocals); Bev Bevan (drums, percussion, background vocals).
Electric Light Orchestra/Electric Light Orchestra, Part II: Wilfrid Wilson Gibson (violin); Richard Tandy (Moog synthesizer); Michael d'Albuquerque (bass guitar); Colin Walker, Jeff Lynne, Mike Edwards , Roy Wood, Bev Bevan.
It's an often-forgotten fact that the Electric Light Orchestra was originally conceived as a side project. Following the orchestrated hard rock of the group's final two albums, LOOKING ON and MESSAGE FROM THE COUNTRY, the Move--Roy Wood, Jeff Lynne and Bev Bevan--decided to further explore this arena with a more classically oriented album under the pseudonym the Electric Light Orchestra. This album was a commercial flop and Wood left to form the more experimental Wizzard. Lynne and Bevan bagged the Move and made ELO their primary endeavor.
This is a transitional album not unlike the Move's LOOKING ON. Like that album, ELO II consists of five very lengthy tracks evenly roughly split between Lynne's Beatlesque pop-rock ...

Collection CD music
$15.30   
Bon Jovi's 2007 effort, LOST HIGHWAY, found New Jersey's finest brandishing a Nashville-tinged, commercial rock/country crossover sound that wasn't too far a stretch from their usual arena rocking anthems for the Everyman. And where that album sometimes tried too hard to fit into the conventions of trad country, sacrificing some of the fist-pumping potency ...
| | Texas Blues Guitar Summit CD (1998)
Collection music CDs
$26.79
This 13-track anthology brings together new recordings from five distinctly different Texas blues players. U.P. Wilson from the Dallas/Fort Worth area is the biggest name here and his work on "That's Your Woman, but She Comes to See Me," athe instrumental "Chankety Chunk" and his work with Bobby Gilmore on "I Just Can't Help It" makes for some of the finest moments on this disc, full of wild skitterings up and down the guitar neck, with strong vocals in support. Henry Qualls is traditional to the point of being 'backwoods, ' and his "Rosie Mae" and "Party Tonight" feature plenty of his ragged vocals and a sense of timing normally associated with folk-blues performers. Bobby Gilmore shines on his solo offerings, "Strange Bed" and "I Can't Be This Way No More," while Andrew "Junior Boy" Jones' slashing guitar work on "Stinky Dink" and "Fast Woman" makes them tracks that belong in the highlights file. Another Dallas/Forth Worth native, J.B. Wynne also heats things up on "All Alone Blues," ...

| | Revillos Rev Up CD (1980) (Import) Canada
Collection album
$16.55 
Emerging more than a year after Fay Fife and Eugene Reynolds broke a nation's heart by dismantling the Rezillos, the Revillos' Rev Up debut set the stage, immediately, for a mission that was going to take the last band's sound into an entirely new universe -- one that had, sad to say, already been visited by the B-52's' and the Cramps' recent doings, but which was nevertheless ripe for serious exploration. A dramatic hybrid of day-glo rockabilly, B-movie glitter, and post-punk trash, Rev Up is a howling good time, a blur of wacked intentions and wired energies that settle for ...

Collection CD music
$11.59
Paint It Black continue to kick the old-school hardcore on their Jade Tree release, Paradise. This time around, though, Paint It Black release a lot of the tension throughout the album with a reliance on melodic sensibilities -- guitar and vocal lines with interesting half-time chumpdowns -- which may be a result of Paradise being produced and recorded by J. Robbins. These are introspective songs of identity against a backdrop of global breakdown and corporate manipulation. Paint It Black offer up fast beats, thick chords, and passionate lyrics on Paradise, ...
| | Melk The G6-49 CD (2006)
Collection music CDs
$11.35
The second album from Indiana-based experimental duo Melk the G6-49 follows the same path as their debut, Glossolalia: bass and drums playing sludgy lo-fi noise rock without guitars or keyboards, but with occasional interpolations of unidentifiable noise. The random noise elements are slightly closer to the forefront of the songs than on the first album, although not enough ...

Collection songs
$13.15
What is Phungi Muzack? Phungi Muzack is the intoxication felt when music mixed with words form a drug-like trance, in turn causing the body to move. The motion in which the body's movement mimics, is that of a dance. This is a highly abused substance that most individuals waste and abuse these days. Lumpz One, formally a master of taming roaches, displays the true formula in making the most potent, smoothe, intoxicating poison known yet! The vibes you will feel will cause a comatosing event inside your ...
