Recorded live between June & October 2001. Includes liner notes by Michael Bracewell.

After 18 years off, everyone knew that Roxy Music's 2001 reunion tour was going to be an event, and by all accounts, it was. But once the thrill of it all wore off, did the band still have anything to say musically? The answer is a resounding yes. Eagle Records' release of the double-CD Live features tracks recorded all over the world, creating a virtual dream concert made from the best-recorded, best-played songs of the 2001 tour. Unfettered by the need to promote an album, Roxy was free to survey their entire career, and it would be hard to come up with a better set list (OK, "Pyjamarama" should have been included). The expanded lineup enables the band to effortlessly re-create everything from Eddie Jobson's violin solos to Eno's treatments and textures, and while the arrangements stick pretty much to the original script, the band really digs into the tunes, and Phil Manzanera and Andy Mackay have never sounded better as soloists. In fact, Manzanera is consistently dazzling every time he steps to the fore, sounding every bit as ferocious and unearthly as he did on their first few albums. Having Paul Thompson back behind the drumkit was vital for the early material, but also adds some needed power to tunes like "My Only Love". Bryan Ferry's voice has weathered just a bit, but he's still the epitome of crooner cool.

The sound quality, as expected, is excellent, allowing the listener to hear every musical detail the band offers. Audience participation, the bane of many a live album, is largely held in check until the very end of the set when it intrudes slightly on the encore numbers. But this is a very small quibble about a thoroughly wonderful release. This set should impress those unfamiliar with Roxy and will surely thrill longtime fans. It's a fine testament to this band that these songs sound timeless rather than dated nearly 30 years down the line in many cases. After nearly two decades away, Roxy Music prove that they still have plenty of style and plenty of substance. Recommended. ~ Sean Westergaard

5 stars Roxy Music still class act in 2001
Roxy Music's main members reunited in 2001 for a tour, and this brand new 2 CD set is the result. CD has all their classic tracks including tracks from their classic 'Avalon' album. Beautifully recorded and classy artwork which has always been a RM staple. Essential for any Roxy Music fan!

5 stars WOW!
Rarley do you find bands whose members seem to have been put on this earth to work together. Roxy Music is one of those bands, and even after 18 years of having not worked, when 4 out of 5 original members reunited to do a world tour, the music still sounded like it could have been produced yesterday. Recorded from gigs around the world, the music leaves you feeling almost giddy. They still sound great, these guys havent lost a thing. A great cross section from their rather lengthy recording career. Its times like these that I wish I watched more TV or read more newspapers or listened to the radio because they came to my hometown and I completely missed it, track 21 was actually recorded there. I cant say enough about this album or this band so I'll let it go at that, only to add, rumors have been circulating about a new album and tour from these guys so lets keep our fingers crossed. Fans of Roxy Music should not miss this one, its great! Take Care

Neil Young American Stars 'N Bars CD  (1977) Remastered

Live album
CD $6.55  4.1 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology. Released right after the career albums TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT and ZUMA and right before the big-selling COMES A TIME and RUST NEVER SLEEPS, this country-rocky 1977 album is often forgotten. But it introduced the sensational "Like A Hurricane," which has remained a staple of Young's concerts, and such quirky favorites as "Homegrown," an ode to marijuana, and "Old Country Waltz," ...

CD $8.59  4.7 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
After working his way through loss and chaos on the brilliant TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT (recorded in 1973, but not released until 1975), Neil Young deftly exorcised any lingering demons with 1974's ON THE BEACH. The album opens with the saunter of the aptly titled "Walk On," followed by the utterly gorgeous, Wurlitzer-tinged "See the Sky about to Rain." The set also features a trio of scathing songs--"Revolution Blues," "Vampire Blues," and "Ambulance Blues"--that address issues important ...

Neil Young Hawks & Doves CD  (1980) Remastered

CD $7.09  3.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology. Following up the energetic, one-two punch of RUST NEVER SLEEPS and LIVE RUST, Neil Young takes a more understated route with 1980's HAWKS & DOVES. On rustic tracks such as "Little Wing" and "The Old Homestead" (both written in the mid-'70s), Young revisits his HARVEST era with a spare sound that relies heavily on his distinctive voice and acoustic guitar. As the album progresses, its scope widens both musically and lyrically; "Stayin' Power" is a jaunty, piano-driven tune about ...

Neil Young Re-AC-Tor CD  (1981) Remastered

CD $7.09  4.3 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology. Released in 1981, REACTOR was a transitional album for Neil Young, most notably in that it marked a break in his longstanding relationship with Reprise Records. But before Young left for the supposedly greener fields of Geffen, he unleashed this amped-up outing with Crazy Horse in tow. "Opera Star," with its refrain of "ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho" and unusual synthesizer backing, sets a quirky tone that's furthered by "T-Bone," a nine-minute guitar workout with lyrics comprised only of the lines "Got mashed potatoes/Ain't got no T-bone." On other tracks, however, the iconic rocker leaves blatant eccentricities behind; "Southern Pacific" rolls along vintage Young ...

Neil Young Greendale CD  (2003) Bonus DVD

Live album
CD $16.59  4.9 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Includes a bonus DVD entitled LIVE AT VICAR STREET, which features a solo acoustic concert recording of the GREENDALE album. GREENDALE 2ND EDITION includes a different DVD and different artwork from the original GREENDALE. This release includes a bonus DVD entitled INSIDE GREENDALE, which contains behind-the-scenes footage of the GREENDALE recording session. Critics were sharply divided over this album, some hailing it as a masterpiece and some dismissing it as a tossed-off trifle. Longtime Young fans will notice right away that GREENDALE's raw, minimalistic sound and quirky songs hearken back to such gloriously off-kilter 1970s releases as ZUMA and TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT.

DESTINATION features 22 recordings from pop singer Ronan Keating, formerly of Boyzone. This album includes the songs "I Love It When We Do," "Lovin Each Day," and "We've Got Tonight." The Hong Kong edition features five bonus audio tracks and four videos.

On Ronan Keating's Destination, his collaborations with Gregg Alexander, totaling nine tracks, offer more upbeat, guitar-infused pop confections, ...

The Filthy Tongues were skulking in the shadows making their guitar, drums and bass snarl like the Scottish musical cousins of The Dirty Three, before meeting this American girl in 2004 coaxed them back into the limelight."We were playing a gig in London," recalls bassist Fin Wilson."I thought I met her in a psychiatric hospital," ponders guitarist Martin Metcalfe."That was it," recalls Derek Kelly, drummer. "Aye it was, because you thought having a therapist in the band might be a useful thing in the future."However it happened, Stacey Chavis from Portland, Oregon, became Isa with The Filthy Tongues.

Having in-house therapy on call must have seemed like a good idea after the trio's experiences as the heart and lungs of Goodbye Mr Mackenzie, a band who ricocheted round record labels narrowly missing a high score in Europe, before ...
