$14.30 
Rush is no stranger to best-of compilation albums, they've released a slew of them. They are also no stranger to DVDs. To mark their 35th anniversary, they've released Working Men, which is both; it marks their first best-of live compilation exclusively from the DVD sets Rush in Rio (2003), R30 (2005), and Snakes & Arrows Live (2008). There is also an unreleased cut from R30 -- a killer version of One Little Victory. While fans may simply regard this as a record company cash grab, hardcore fans know how closely Rush monitors each release and controls all aspects of their career. On hearing these tracks without benefit of the visuals, it becomes lucidly ...

| | John Gary Catch A Rising Star/Encore CD (2002)
This Fading Time CD music
$12.89
This discount two-fer appropriately pairs John Gary's first two RCA Victor albums, Catch a Rising Star and Encore, the former recorded at sessions in July and August 1963, the latter immediately after, in September and October. The 30-year-old Gary had kicked around in the music business for years without catching fire, perhaps because he was equally interested in his diving company, perhaps because the record labels weren't looking for a new traditional pop singer in the early rock & roll age. When RCA finally took the plunge, it was only months ...
| | Susumu Yokota Symbol CD (2005)
This Fading Time music CDs
$10.34
Possibly the most unique item within Susumu Yokota's highly idiosyncratic oeuvre, Symbol finds the multifaceted Japanese electronica master defying and muddying genre distinctions to create sui generis compositions of considerable beauty and strangeness. That's not exactly new territory for Yokota, but this time there's a gimmick: the album is consists primarily of fragments taken from classical pieces, many of them highly familiar, if not always readily identifiable, ...

| | O C Word...Life CD (1994)
This Fading Time CD music
$9.59 
All songs written by O.C. Includes samples from "Hey Young World" (as performed by Slick Rick), "Searchin'" (as performed by Roy Ayers), "Fresh Is The Word" (as performed by Mantronix) and "Sound Of The Police" (as performed by KRS-One).
Wild Pitch recording artist O.C. was first seen as a guest on Organized Konfusion's "Fudge Pudge," but it wasn't until his own full-length debut, WORD...LIFE, that he proved to be one of rap's finest up-and-coming lyricists. In fact, his initial single, "Time's Up," answered the prayers of hip-hop fans who watched their music dominated by phony rappers who "pose lyrical but really ain't true."
WORD...LIFE gathers together some of hip-hop's top underground producers (Buckwild, Lord Finesse, Organized Konfusion), but it's more than just the phat tracks that make it stand out from the pack. With its hypnotizing, laid-back beat and Slick Rick sample, "Time's Up" commends those who practice what they preach ("That's what I consider real in this field of music") and scolds those who do not ("Instead of putting brain cells to work they abuse it/Non-conceptual, non-exceptional/Everybody's either crime-related or sexual"). The album's title track defines the themes O.C. explores throughout--Word signifying truthfulness, Life reflecting the urban environment within which the rapper exists. He clearly reflects his values on tracks like "Born 2 Live" and "Point O Viewz": no guns or violence, no weed-smoking, no vulgarities or over-exaggerated frontin'. And what better way to emphasize the album's positive feel, than by using his own mother's vocals on "Ma Dukes."
O.C.'s auspicious debut announced the arrival of one of modern rap's more gifted storytelling lyricists. The artist dropped his thesis on "Time's Up" a '90s rap benchmark track that served to separate rap's true school from its ever-expanding species of frauds. On that track, O.C. takes umbrage with money-grubbing fake MC's over a combined droning bass guitar and well-plucked sample from Slick Rick's "Hey Young World." The album is drenched in classic, hard-core East Coast B-boyism, ...
