| | Ready Men Get Ready!! CD Ready Men Discography of CDs
 (1 Customer Review)
If you've never heard of these guys, don't worry--even back in their early-'60s heyday, they were world-famous only in Minneapolis, where they had a local hit with a totally over-the-top "Surfin' Bird"-derived take on "Shortnin' Bread." Which means they're barely a footnote to rock history, but GET READY--which collects (mostly) primitively recorded rehearsal tapes and live gigs--is terrific rowdy fun; in fact, on the evidence here, the Ready Men rocked out every bit as hard as more famous Northwest brethren like the Wailers.

| | Link Wray Slinky! The Epic Sessions '58-'61 CDs (2002)
Get Ready!!
$19.49 
Recorded between 1958 and 1961. Includes liner notes by Teisco Del Rey.
The king of the power chord is ably represented on this generous two-disc set. SLINKY! covers Link Wray's tenure at Epic Records between 1958 and 1961 and features some of his finest material, including the title track and "Raw-Hide," both of which recall his landmark grungy stomp "Rumble." There is plenty of the guitarist's gnarled tone and aggressive attack on display here, and it's easy to hear why Wray's conception of the instrument became a reference point for punk and metal some years later.
In addition to the expected trademark workouts and rave-ups, there is some Latin-influenced material that mixes mariachi and mambo flavors with a greaser sensibility, as well as some eerie, lounge-ish instrumentals that would not sound out of place on the soundtrack to a David Lynch film. SLINKY! works wonderfully as an introduction to Wray; but with its rare singles, unissued outtakes, alternate versions, and demos it is also indispensable to fans.

| | Mary Black Looking Back CD (1995)
Get Ready!!
$15.89
LOOKING BACK, Mary Black's 1995 collection of pop songs from four of her earlier albums, showcases the Irish folkie's eclectic, resonant work and includes two new tracks. Delicate and sensitive one minute, growling and defiant the next, Mary Black has the ability to turn herself inside out, getting into the heart and soul of the characters she sings about. The album begins with the single "Soul Sister" where Black musically unites all women through the love, devotion, and even the missteps that they all share on their travels. "No Frontiers," luminously sung with an upbeat and hopeful vibe, implores listeners to always keep their hearts open without any boundaries. Black, known for her lilting soprano, uses her lower register to great dramatic effect on "Ellis Island," relating the personal pain of immigrants leaving their homeland, setting out to an unknown future. "Bright Blue Rose," sung almost as a meditation, is one of Black's most precious songs as she encourages everyone to seek their own path and diverge as much as possible until they find their way. "Only A Woman's Heart" (the title track from a compilation album, which has become the best selling album in Irish history) features a high-flying duet with the magnificent Emmylou Harris. The two voices mesh so beautifully and become one solid instrument, making the song a searing portrait of a woman's feelings and desires. Black excels at her musical portraits of women as they challenge themselves to move on or simply find the courage to stand completely still and comprehend their place in the world.
Engineers include: Billy Robinson, Dan Fitzgerald, Andrew Boland.
Personnel: Mary Black, Emmylou Harris (vocals); Declan Sinnott (acoustic & electric guitars, synthesizer, background vocals); Bill Shanley (guitar); Donal Lunny (bouzouki, synthesizer); Frank Gallagher (fiddle, synthesizer, tin whistle); Caroline LaVelle ...
