Better Be Good Music Review

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars The Real Deal
For anyone who dug the Real Kids first record, the bulk of what's on Better Be Good comprises alternate (outtake) versions of all the same material, mostly differing in the vocal delivery (and indeed more in keeping with the band's live sound in those days). An essential supplement to the red star (1st) album. Top that off with the band's debut single versions of "All Kindsa Girld" and "Common At Noon", and 4 great cuts from the Bomp label EP (heretofor not available on CD) and you have what is probably The Real Kids best showing on compact disc, at the very least the equal of the first album or the best material on the live Grown Up Wrong set.

5 stars What an edge,boy!
Unlike most of the folks,i strongly recommend this alternative collection of rehearsals & demos,as they represent the Kids at their best... You just can't sit down when hearing the sonic thunderstorm these four boys from suburban areas generate groove after groove... Needless to say they were stars in France & complete unknowns in their homeland(remember the Groovies,buddy?). So,eat your heart out,Mr Bush,the frogs had impeccable taste this time around!!!

Okay, this is a little complicated, but bear with us. In the beginning, or at least in 1975, there were the Real Kids, maybe the best pop-punk band Boston ever offered up. Their fantastic self-titled debut came out in 1977, but it stiffed commercially. The Real Kids broke up and leader John Felice became a roadie for the Ramones. Then, in late 1978, ...

Better Be Good CD music

$24.65

A remastered and greatly expanded version of THE WHO SINGS MY GENERATION was released in 2002 as MY GENERATION: DELUXE EDITION. This 2-CD deluxe edition of MY GENERATION includes previously unreleased bonus tracks plus alternate and full-length versions of the original recordings. Includes liner notes by Mike Shaw, Shel Talmy and Andy Neill. This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players. "Ours is a group with built-in hate." Pete Townshend said that in 1965, around the time that THE WHO SING MY GENERATION came out. That hate--or, more accurately, angst--jumps out of the grooves on the album. Although the line between righteous anger and self-centered bitchiness occasionally wears thin, there is no denying that the Who were truly revolutionary. The ...

Hugh Moffatt Dance Me Outside CD (1992)

Better Be Good music CDs

$17.75

Siblings Hugh and Katy Moffatt have pursued different musical roads over the years. Hugh has established himself in Nashville as songwriter and folk-influenced singer, while Katy has leaned in a more overt country direction. This is their first full collaboration, and it showcases Hugh's troubadour-like rich baritone and poetic lyrics and Katy's dynamic country vocals and passionate songs. The top-notch backing musicians include Buddy Emmons (steel guitar, dobro), Tim O'Brien (mandolin), Stuart Duncan (fiddle), and Albert Lee (lead guitar on two songs). ~ Roundup Newsletter From the Gram Parsons/Emmy Lou Harris like "We'll Sweep Out the Ashes" to the soul tune "Dark End of the Street", this collection of originals and standards is satisfying throughout. Includes the familiar Katy Moffatt-Tom Russell penned songs "Walking On the Moon" and "Dance Me Outside".

*********Hugh MoffattThe list of artists who have recorded Hugh Moffatt's songs is international and multi-dimensional. It ranges from Patti Page to Jerry Lee Lewis to The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band to Merle Haggard, Dolly Parton, Alabama, and Johnny Cash and includes pop, country, traditional and gospel artists from around the world. These records include the chart-topping country singles "Just in Case" by Ronnie Milsap, "Old Flames Can't Hold a Candle to You" by Dolly Parton, and "How Could I Love Her So Much" by Johnny Rodriguez, and the Southern Gospel hit "Roll Away the Stone" by Wendy Bagwell and the Sunlighters. His song "Rose of My Heart" is part of Johnny Cash's last recording, American V: A Hundred Highways.

As a performing artist himself, Moffatt has released nine albums and toured extensively around the world. His albums are LOVING YOU, TROUBADOUR and DANCE ME OUTSIDE (duets with Katy Moffatt) for Rounder Records, THE LIFE OF A MINOR POET for Watermelon Records, LIVE AND ALONE for Brambus Records in Switzerland, THE WOGNUM SESSIONS (The Hugh Moffatt Trio) for Strictly Country Records in the Netherlands, GHOSTS OF THE MUSIC for Brambus, and SONGS FROM THE ...

Better Be Good album

$15.09

This quartet date by guitarist Christy Doran, bassist Mark Helias, drummer Bobby Previte, and saxophonist Gary Thomas may have been recorded in Europe by Stefan Winter, but its feel is utterly New York. Doran's playing is far more on the jazz-rock than avant tip here, giving the entire proceeding a feeling of that beautiful, edgy walk between composition and improvisation. Thomas -- normally an outside player -- reins himself in as a soloist in order to focus on the sometimes wondrous ensemble playing at the heart of the disc. Each member of the band ...

Very Best Of Marvin Gaye CD (2004)

Better Be Good CD music

$45.65

This generous two-disc compilation does an excellent job of tracing soul legend Marvin Gaye's career. It moves from his earliest, most pop-oriented recordings ("How Sweet It Is," "I'll Be Doggone") to his famed duets with Tammi Terrell ("Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing") and his later, more socially conscious work from the WHAT'S GOING ON era. Things kick off marvelously with the vibrant "Stubborn Kind of Fellow," where Marvin works his magic around sassy vocal assists from the Vandellas and a slightly Latin-tinged arrangement sporting flute and cowbell. Other stops along the way include songs from the ultimate make-out album LET'S GET IT ON, the latter-day glory of the subtly sensual "Sexual Healing," and of course ...
