 (3 Customer Reviews)
This 1998 reissue contains 5 bonus tracks (including the previously
unreleased "White Christmas") not included on the original release.
John Denver's music always had a warm, home-spun quality to it, so it isn't surprising that his 1975 holiday effort, Rocky Mountain Christmas, is a wonderfully low-key and friendly Christmas album. Divided between classic carols and new numbers, such as the fine "Aspenglow" and "Christmas for Cowboys," the album is an appealing, pretty record, perfect for late nights by the fireside. The 1998 CD reissue adds five bonus tracks: "Jingle Bells," "White Christmas," "The Music is You," "Perhaps Love," and "Dreamland Express." ~ Rodney Batdorf

Recorded from September to November 1968. Includes liner notes by Carlo Wolff.
The Climax Chicago Blues Band--not from Chicago at all, but from Stafford, England--were major participants in the 1960s British blues-rock scene. This classic 1969 debut record, recorded before the condensed their name to Climax Blues Band, hints at the power demonstrated on successive albums.
The Climax Chicago Blues Band were arguably the epiphany of the British beat movement or, at the very least, its epitaph. In any case, the group's 1968 debut self-titled album was pretty much the last gasp of a scene swiftly mutating into new genres entirely -- prog rock, space rock, hard ...

BIG HEAD TODD AND THE MONSTERS are one of those very special bands that defy genres and categories...a rock-n-roll band in the broadest sense – folk, blues, country, rhythm and blues, soul, contemporary, indie, alternative and everything in between. In a review of BHTM’s most recent studio release, Crimes of Passion--recorded in TODD’s solar-powered studio--The London Times described the band as “scandalously overlooked” and “as classy as American rock gets.” The band certainly deserves its place in the Rock pantheon, though they are ever defiant of the tired and well-traveled commercial formula that seems to define the overwhelming bulk of contemporary music.“Independent” and “alternative” are terms that are often used to describe Big Head Todd and The Monsters’ sound, but there is an undeniable pop/soul polish here, a song based accessibility that elevates BHTM from the mosh-pit. The band’s greatest strengths are their incendiary live performances and the songwriting of TODD PARK MOHR. Todd has consistently plowed new ground writing and helming BHTM’s seven studio and two live releases. He’s a writer in the tradition of Dylan ...

Everyone in America knows Elvis! Even 30 years after his death there are more Elvis fans now than there were when he was alive. People are still hungry for his music and they love his persona. Elvis Presley is well-known as a performer who rose to the top of the charts swiveling his hips in flashy jump suits and singing classics like " Burning Love," Jailhouse Rock," and "Don't Be Cruel." But Danny wants people to know that there was another side of Elvis few ever witnessed.Danny Vann’s “Elvis Gospel - The Other Side of Elvis” offers the public a FRESH look at the King of Rock-n-Roll. It’s a journey through the life of Elvis from a “spiritual” perspective. The gospel roots from those early years never faded out for Elvis. He longed to sing (and hear) that good ol’ Southern Gospel. Elvis wanted to perform more gospel music on stage but his management (and the fans) wouldn’t let him. There was something special about the way he made all of his songs come alive – and the general public just loved his music! But, there was also something incredible about the way he embraced his gospel music! In fact, the ONLY Grammy awards he ever won were all for his gospel music.Now that same love for God and gospel music – Elvis style – comes alive on stage through Danny Vann! The gospel music that came so naturally to Elvis lives on in Danny Vann with the same passion and dynamic presentation. This show has already played to sold-out audiences throughout Michigan – and is now ready to take the national stage.People are ready for this fresh perspective on Elvis!"The message that I'm trying to get across here is that there was another side of Elvis," Danny explains. "Away from the glamour and fame, there was a spiritual guy." Danny goes on to explain that of the many songs he recorded and thousands of concerts he presented, Elvis only ever won three Grammy Awards - all for gospel songs others didn't think he should record."He was trapped, they wouldn't let him do it," Danny ...
