Great Americana & Classic Folk Songs music CDs
$13.75
For the Soul and for the Mind: Demos of 1971-1974 is an astonishing document. Basically, it is a found reel of David Allan Coe's earliest demos as a staff songwriter for the late Pete Drake's Window Music publishing company. Coe was paid a "draw" of $100.00 a week. The draw was basically a loan against royalties if and when a songwriter scored. The reel was found by Drake's widow, Rose, and handed over to Steve Popovich, who took it to Coe. The 15th cut is a demo from 2001, recorded at home. This is hardcore country music, from honky tonk ballads to drinking anthems to truck driving country tunes to story songs -- all written before Coe exposed his ""Long Haired Redneck"" persona. Sound quality varies a bit, but is mostly very good. Sometimes Coe is backed only by his guitar, at other times, by a small session band -- no matter what the setting, his work here shines. Regardless of the fact that none of them really hit, these cuts offer shining proof of Coe's status as a poet. "Teardrops and Wine," despite being a solo ...

| | Jurassic 5 CDs (1998) With DVD; 11th Anniversary Edition
Great Americana & Classic Folk Songs album
$12.15
The original EP clocking in at only half the running time of your average rap album circa 1997, Jurassic 5's debut was the most refreshing hip-hop release of the year, and not just because it abandoned the epic-length concepts of the rap mainstream. With old-school vibes to spare, excellent rhythmatic raps, and the production genius of Cut Chemist and DJ Nu-Mark, Jurassic 5 finally delivered on all the diverse talents promised by the growing hip-hop underground. "Jayou" is a flute-loop classic, and "Concrete Schoolyard" has that nostalgic "can it all be so simple" vibe so rarely heard from hip-hop. Interspersed with the songs are instrumentals, usually laced with the most obscure samples a veteran crate-digger could hope to shovel up, including an instructional record that listed definitions of common science terms and another that pointed out the absurdity of ...

| | King Crimson Red CDs (1974) (Import) Wdva
Great Americana & Classic Folk Songs album
$25.05
The initial pressing of RED is packaged in a cardboard-stock gatefold sleeve.
After the transitional ISLANDS, LARK'S TONGUES began the third Crimson phase that ended with RED. The quartet of David Cross, John Wetton, Robert Fripp and Bill Bruford (augmented on LARK'S TONGUES by madman percussionist Jamie Muir) is regarded as the most innovative of Crimson's many lineups, offering hard-edged improvisations on an unprecedented level. With founding member/lyricist Pete Sinfield departed, Robert Palmer-James stepped in with a more cutting, concise lyrical approach that matched the group's uncompromising instrumental precision.
Cross was relegated to guest status on RED, but still makes his presence felt, as do returning Crimson vets Mel Collins and Ian McDonald on saxes. The ominous, hard-edged aspect of Crimson's sound has always been alleged as an influence on early heavy metal, and RED, their heaviest, makes it clear why. The Wagnerian tendencies of early Crimson are magnified here, but the airy-fairy "prog-rock" trappings are discarded in favor of a sound that melds hard rock, modern classical music and jazzy improvisation. The resultant fusion-oriented sound is like a darker, rockier cousin to Tony Williams' Lifetime or the Mahavishnu Orchestra (or the repeating riff cycle that ends the Beatles' "She's So Heavy."
King Crimson fell apart once more, seemingly for the last time, as David Cross walked away during the making of this album. It became Robert Fripp's last thoughts on this version of the band, a bit noisier overall but with some surprising sounds featured, mostly out of the group's past -- Mel Collins' and Ian McDonald's saxes, Marc Charig's cornet, and Robin Miller's oboe, thus providing a glimpse of what the 1972-era King Crimson might have ...
