| | World Of Rock N Roll CD
World of Rock N Roll is an entertaining, 33-track collection of classic rock & roll and R&B songs from the '50s and early '60s. Outside of a couple of tracks, all of the collection is familiar -- "Tequila," "Blue Suede Shoes, " "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin On, " "Surf City, " "Do You Want to Dance?, " "Duke of Earl, " "Personality, " "Surf City, " etc. -- but it's nice to have these songs in one place. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine World Of Rock N Roll Music | List Price | $8.97 (You save $0.52) | | Category | Rock/Pop Albums, Rock CDs, Oldies | | Label | ZYX | | Orig Year | 1996 | | All Time Sales Rank |  313720  | | CD Universe Part number | 7103377 | | Discs | 2 | | Release Date | May 23, 2006 | | Studio/Live | Studio | | Mono/Stereo | Stereo | | Additional Info | Import |

World Of Rock N Roll album

You'd need a wall full of early rock & roll records to get a truly definitive summary of the best sounds from the music's first decade. That qualification noted, this is about as good a sampling of the most important early rock & roll hits and performers as could be stuffed into a three-CD, 62-song set, and deserves the highest rating even if it can't tell the whole story. Other than Elvis Presley (perhaps not present due to licensing obstacles), it has definitive hits by all the major early rock & roll performers, including Bill Haley, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, Bo Diddley, Gene Vincent, Carl Perkins, Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers, the Everly Brothers, Jerry Lee Lewis, ...
| | Michael Buble Crazy Love CD (2009)
World Of Rock N Roll CD music
$14.49  
Buoyed by the popularity of the hit contemporary pop ballad "Home," singer Michael Bublé's 2005 album, IT'S TIME, clearly positioned the vocalist as the preeminent neo-crooner of his generation. Easily the singer's most stylistically wide-ranging album so far, 2009's CRAZY LOVE is also one of his brightest, poppiest, and most fun. Bublé kicks things off with the theatrical, epic ballad "Cry Me a River" and proceeds to milk the tune with burnished breath, eking out the drama line by line. It's over the top for sure, but Bublé takes ...

NIGHT CASTLE appears just in time for the big 2009 holiday season but don't be fooled: this isn't a Christmas album, even if it's sonically indistinguishable from Trans-Siberian Orchestra's other seasonal releases, and the fact that it's been dubbed "Capra-esque" ...

World Of Rock N Roll album
$10.89
Gentle Giant was reduced to a quintet on In a Glass House with the departure of elder brother Phil Shulman, but its sound is unchanged, and the group may actually be tighter without the presence of his saxophones. The time signatures are still really strange, and the tempo changes are sometimes jarring, as is the wide range of dynamics, but this is also one of the group's most pleasing records -- they rock out in various places, and elsewhere perform all kinds of little experiments with percussion instruments ("An Inmate's Lullaby"), or create a strange, otherworldly sort of modern medieval-style music ("Way of Life"). None of it except possibly "A Reunion" is light listening, but the challenge does yield some rewarding sounds. ~ Bruce Eder
Gentle Giant's fifth album was the maker (or breaker) of their career. Evidently of no interest to Columbia Records or to England's Vertigo label, which had issued their prior albums, it marked a break in their commercial stride; fans in England could buy it on the WAA label, but in America -- where imports were still carried mostly by specialty shops and a tiny label like WAA didn't exactly rate next to EMI, British CBS, etc. -- fans had to scramble to find it. It's arguable that the group never recovered from the lapse, because between its relative obscurity in England and the near-impossibility of finding it in America, it created a major gap in their library -- you couldn't really absorb the record that followed, The Power and the Glory, without listening to In a Glass House first, so there was a major piece in their musical matrix missing for actual and potential American fans from that day forward. Additionally, plain and simple, In a Glass House was their best album, bar none, so on that basis ...
