This concert recording finds Janis Joplin and Big Brother returning to San Francisco upon completing a triumphant East Coast tour that found acts such as B.B. King and Albert King opening for them, Big Brother were hailed as conquering heroes prior to their hitting the studio to record what would become CHEAP THRILLS. At the center of it all was Janis Joplin, a raw-throated Texan whose love of Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith was channeled through her music every night.
More than a mere lover of the blues, Joplin amply displayed her impressive range as she crooned her way through the standard "Summertime," poured her soul into Erma Franklin's "Piece Of My Heart" and belted out folkie Mark Spoelstra's "Magic Of Love." Whether in the traded vocals of Joplin and guitarist James Gurley on "Easy Rider" or the chugging insistency of "Combination Of The Two," LIVE AT WINTERLAND '68 perfectly demonstrates the fluid synergy between Joplin's singing and Big Brother's brand of acid-rock, capturing the intensity that this impressive unit carried through the two sets that make up this disc.
/Big Brother & The Holding Company.Entertainment Weekly (6/5/98, p.85) - "Joplin fans won't find any forgotten gems on this famous, beautifully recorded performance, but Big Brother, thrillingly raw and raunchy, emerges as one of the most unjustifiably maligned bands of the era..." - Rating: B+ Live At Winterland '68 Music Live At Winterland '68 Music Review Buy Live At Winterland '68 CD Purchase Live At Winterland '68 CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Husker Du Zen Arcade CD (1984)

TRACKS includes 56 previously unreleased masters, many of which were recorded during the BORN IN THE U.S.A. and THE RIVER sessions, as well as ten B-sides.
All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.
This handsomely packaged box set goes a long way towards illuminating the darker corners of Springsteen's recording career. Apparently, almost every time the Boss went into the studio he recorded more songs than he could possibly fit onto a record, and most of those extra tracks languished in obscurity. The four-disc TRACKS aims to change that. The amazing thing about the never-before-heard material here (and the little-known ...

Live At Winterland '68 songs
$12.59 
Seven years after the duo's inception, Suicide's debut album finally sneaked out in 1977 on the coat tails of the nascent New York punk scene. If its aim had been to confuse, startle, or repulse, SUICIDE succeeded in spades. By the same token, if a part-time sculptor and avant-garde jazz musician form a two-chord synthesizer duo and call it Suicide, commercial considerations are presumably low on their list of priorities. SUICIDE was a record destined to have future journalists reaching for words like "seminal". Synth duos ...

The Bruce Marshall Group formed in 1991 and has been performing and recording steadily throughout the New England Region since their inception. On the road for most of the 80's with Bruce Marshall and the Clue, Bruce took a break from the band to join forces with Toy Caldwell of the Marshall Tucker Band, and toured and recorded with him in '89 and '90. The Bruce Marshall Group emerged shortly thereafter and originally had an 8 pc. lineup that featured Bruce's sister, Sally Marshall Griffin on vocals, who continues to do select shows with the group.The Bruce Marshall Group live show treats their fans to a soaring ride as they rip through a catalogue of original material that truly sets this band apart. They love to mix it up, whether its pulling off exciting jams that build with dynamics and layering, or playing the concise arrangements of their songs with discipline and restraint. The sound defies categorization, slipping seamlessly around touches of R & B, Rock, Country Blues and Southern Boogie. The newest 5 pc. lineup has taken the sound and musical direction to new heights and must be experienced live to be fully appreciated.Lead Vocalist/Guitarist and chief songwriter Bruce Marshall has a keen eye for the human experience and an uncanny knack for creating songs you find yourself humming the next day. A powerful and expressive vocalist who can deliver the grit and conviction in the rock numbers and is also able to convey emotion and sensitivity needed to put across a ballad. Favors a melodic style of lead guitar rarely heard today and is very adept at intricate rhythm and lead passages while singing lead. Also featured on slide with his trademark steel body Dobro throughout the set, which has become a crowd favorite. Influences include Duane and Greg Allman, Van Morrison, Marvin Gaye. Guitarist/ Vocalist Dave Cournoyer has earned a reputation for "coaxing seemingly impossible sounds from his instrument", and has mastered the art of re-inventing himself every night, almost never playing the same lick twice. Totally at ease with over ...
