| | Al Green Definitive Greatest Hits CD Al Green Discography of CDs
(3 Customer Reviews)
An expanded version of Al Green's beloved GREATEST HITS (which was already bolstered from 10 tracks to 15 in 1995), this 21-song collection features all the tunes from the earlier editions, including his biggest singles--among them, the supremely romantic "Let's Stay Together" and the beautifully weary "Tired of Being Alone." The real draws of 2007's DEFINITIVE GREATEST HITS are the additions of the plaintive "Back Up Train," which finds the legendary soul singer in his formative late-'60s period, and the gently funky "I Can't Stop," from Green's triumphant 2003 return-to-secular-form album of the same name. Although some fans may bristle at yet another tweaking of this top-notch compilation, DEFINITIVE succeeds at painting a bigger picture of Green's impressive career.

| | Nas Illmatic CD (1994)
Definitive Greatest Hits album
$6.09 Out of a seemingly endless array of hip hop albums, every now and again something fresh and powerful rises to the top of the pile. Hailing from the Queensbridge Housing Projects in Long Island City (home to Marley Marl among others), 20-year old Nasir "Nas" Jones is less concerned with being an impersonator than with being an originator, bypassing adolescent fantasies and B-boy braggadocio in favor of jazzy beats, rap noir realism and new answers to urban despair.
ILLMATIC is his story, a cautionary tale of the inner-city streets, and as Nas makes plain on his opener, "The Genesis," this is what he does, with or without a record contract, and it's going to be served up straight, no chaser. And because Nas has the courage to transcend popular trends, to separate himself from the ranks of wannabes ...

$9.65 Savoy Jazz's Jazz for When You're Not Alone is a companion piece to the labels' collection Jazz for When You're Alone. Where that set was made up of moody ballads and sad songs, this collection is made up of romantic tunes and love ballads. As with all of Savoy's Jazz For series, the songs are drawn from the catalog of the Muse label from the '70s, '80s, and '90s and the artist roster contains some very big names like Sonny Stitt, Curtis Fuller, Bobby Hutcherson, Cedar Walton and Woody Shaw, as well as some lesser but still worthy performers like ...
| | Rhonda Smith RS2 CD (2006)
Definitive Greatest Hits songs
$17.69 One of the great aspects about having a steady, lucrative side gig -- in the case of versatile bassist, singer and songwriter Rhonda Smith, nearly ten years playing with Prince -- is the freedom to create a solo project that happily defies any easy genre categorization. Of course, it's also nice to have Prince himself in the house, lending a promotional quote ("This is Rhonda...and she is funky!") and his crunchy lead and rhythm guitars to the old-school soul)-(\rock jam "Time." Smith says it all about the eclectic nature of her disc in the half-minute industrial vibing intro called "What Do They Think Music Is." She answers that in many ways throughout RS2, beginning with the adventurous, sensuous soul meets trippy electronica tune "To Get with You," and engaging in some biting commentary about an emotionally stunted lover on the sparse, percussive neo-soul-jazz piece "Lost Child." "Always" moves into progressive urban smooth jazz territory, with Smith focusing more on the melodic capabilities of her axe, accompanied by Ron James' soprano sax and some gently echoing background vocals. "Why Criticize" takes this same road, complementing its long intro with a brief dose of Smith's most beautiful vocals. There are also some percussive jazzy elements on the hypnotic closer "Ray of Light." Smith never stays in one place too long, however zipping next ...
