CLASSICS collects some of the best tracks from Sonny & Cher's albums of the 1960s. Though they're dismissed, perhaps unfairly, by fans of serious music as light, manufactured pop, there is an undeniable charm to the duo, and that charm is clearly evident on their takes on classic pop tunes, such as "Then He Kissed Me," featured here. CLASSICS also includes a number of Sonny Bono-penned tunes, including "Baby Don't Go" and "Living for You," underscoring his strengths as a songwriter. ("I Got You, Babe" is conspicuously absent, however). A blast from the past, CLASSICS also offers the chance to reevaluate the merits of this fun, sunny pop pair. Classics Review

Classics
$13.59 The title of this Sunshine Company compilation was chosen very carefully, considering they only really had one hit. "Back on the Street Again" (1967) may have made them famous, but the only song that even came close to it on the charts was "Happy." ...
| | Beatles - A Hard Day's Night DVDs (1964)
Classics
$10.49 A HARD DAY'S NIGHT presents a fictionalized day in the life of the Beatles as they give a performance on a live television show. Filmed just a month after their appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in February 1964, this film--the Beatles' first--introduces us to the unique personalities of each member of the band. The film opens with the Fab Four boarding a train mobbed with adoring young fans (mostly women) as they attempt to travel to the television studio in London. The antics of the band during rehearsals and makeup application provide a large part of the comic material in this feature, though there are other moments of pure hilarity. The unscripted vignette featuring a hangover-suffering Ringo is especially funny, particularly when he is arrested and risks having to miss the broadcast. None of this goes unnoticed by the director of the show, played by Victor Spinetti, who went on to become a recurring cast member in Beatles movies. As the clock ticks away dramatically, our heroes manage to free Ringo from jail and sneak onto the stage in the nick of time, delighted in the knowledge that they have nearly driven the ...
| | Rod Stewart Never A Dull Moment CD (1972) Gold
Classics
$19.10 NEVER A DULL MOMENT picks up where EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY left off. Here we have more raucous rock & roll with healthy dollops of soul and twang thrown in for good measure. Always looking for a good songwriter to cover, Stewart's honorees here include Jimi Hendrix ("Angel"), Dylan ("Mama You Been On My Mind"), and Rod's personal hero, Sam Cooke ("Twistin' The Night Away"). Sidling up nicely next to these heartfelt interpretations are some of Stewart's finest original songs. Teaming with spiritual brother Ron Wood, Stewart offers up the cheeky "Italian Girls" and "True Blue," a track that goes along at a mid-tempo clip before exploding into a heartfelt rave-up.
Most notable is a collaboration with Martin Quittenton on "You Wear It Well," an irresistible addition to the Stewart canon. Although the Sam Cooke cover is the one spot where the soulful Scot would be expected to indulge ...

| | Halford III: Winter Songs CD (2009) Special Edition; Digipak
Classics
$13.58 At first glance, Halford's entry into the crowded holiday market looks like a parody. Heavy metal and Christmas make for strange bedfellows, and WINTER SONGS' pastoral cover art -- which depicts Rob Halford staring wistfully (with a goatee and shades) into a soft, snowy pine forest -- screams Spinal Tap. That said, the Judas Priest frontman approaches yuletide standards like "We Three Kings" and "What Child Is This?" with the same conviction that he applied to Priest classics like "Electric Eye" and "Freewheel Burning" -- it probably helps that most traditional Christmas hymns tend to fall into the same brooding minor keys that serve as the foundation for most, if not all, heavy metal songs. While WINTER SONGS, like Twisted Sister's excellent 2006 TWISTED CHRISTMAS collection, may not be mainstream enough ...
| | Sting If On A Winter's Night... CDs (2009) Digipak
Classics
$14.19 It's no secret that Sting is a serious man, so it's only logical that his holiday album -- his first new music since the Police reunion, not that it really matters -- is a serious endeavor, thank you. No niceties for him, no comforts of carols; he favors formal over familiar, writing madrigals, not ditties. It is music made by someone who lives in a castle, which isn't necessarily such a bad thing: the austerity is genuine, not affected, and the cerebral nature of the album is fascinating, albeit mildly so, as this is as sleepy as it is thoughtful. And it's that thoughtfulness that does distinguish IF ON A WINTER NIGHT...; ...
| | Mad About The Boy 15 CD (2007) (Import)
Classics
$22.35 The 15th edition in the Klone Records flagship series delivers once more in fine style with tracks from artists and producers from all corners of the world. CD1 starts with a stunning dance take of Take That's smash “Patience” from JayJay, Australian uber-hunk Peter Wilson contributes 3 fabulous original tracks (Boney M lovers should check “Doin Fine”, based on “Daddy Cool” sanctioned by Frank Farian himself); Jason Oliver covers 5 Star's "The Slightest Touch" and “The Rose”. American NRG hero Ernest Kohl serves up "To Save The Love 2007" while Norma Lewis returns ...
