All tracks originally released on the French label New Rose. Performers include: Dead Kennedys, The Cramps, The Gun Club, Alex Chilton, Calvin Russell, Johnny Thunders, The Saints, Sky Saxon, The Real Kids, True West. Unmistakably packaged in a neon pink box, this four-CD survey of the first 20 years of France's New Rose label is an essential guide to the European post-punk underground -- and that's the real underground, the stable and singles that may not have had the critical impact of Rough Trade, Homestead, Hot, or Blast First, but who informed more of those mavericks than you could ever imagine. Like Rough Trade, New Rose started life as a record store alone, named for its founders' favorite 45, the Damned's "New Rose." The label was launched in 1980 with the Saints' live EP Paralytic Tonight Dublin Tomorrow and, concentrating on both local and foreign talent, New Rose was soon issuing up to ten albums a month, together with a multitude of handsomely packaged 45s, many of which swiftly became collector's items -- and a lot of which are rounded up here. From Willie Alexander to Chris Spedding, the Cramps and Gun Club to Sky Saxon and the Fugs, New Rose's specialty was unearthing the cults that everyone thought they ought to have heard of but few had actually encountered before. And, if the quality of the material didn't always live up to expectations (much of New Rose's Johnny Thunders output is distinctly sub-bootleg), that only added to the cachet. Eighty-five tracks across four CDs, of course, tell only a fraction of the New Rose story, but it's difficult to quibble with how well those discs have been stuffed. Besides, a 44-page booklet offers biographies, anecdotes, and a full label discography to let you fill any gaps in yourself. ~ Dave Thompson

$10.99 This Philadelphia troubador produced some of the best political and social commentary music in the Northeast during the late 1960s and early 1970s. His trippy, spacey and down-to-earth style is very similiar to Tom Rush, Eric Anderson, Tim Buckley and Ph
Liner Note Author: Roger Maglio. Recording information: 1970. Experiment in Metaphysics is one of the rarest and most sought-after artifacts of the hippie era. Recorded live during a five-hour session in the basement of a shoe-repair shop in June of 1970, most of the 300 original copies of Experiment in Metaphysics were simply given away in one afternoon, yet, inexplicably, bootleg copies of the album later sprang ...

Duran Duran: Simon LeBon (vocals); Andy Taylor (guitar); Nick Rhodes (keyboards); John Taylor (bass guitar); Roger Taylor (drums). "It's like the Mamas & the Papas meets Kraftwerk." This line, more baffling than a lyric like "Shake up the picture, the lizard mixture, with your dance on the eventide," is how Simon LeBon described Astronaut to Rolling Stone. If it was meant to lower expectations of the first Duran Duran album to feature the Fab Five (meaning LeBon, Nick Rhodes, ...
