In 1984, with Led Zeppelin no longer a going concern, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page found themselves with time on their hands. The result was THE HONEYDRIPPERS, a five-song mini album of old R&B covers featuring backing by Jeff Beck, ex-Stray Cat Brian Setzer, and Chic bassist Nile Rogers. The name was lifted from jump blues stalwart Joe Liggins, whose "The Honeydripper" was a big hit in 1945.

A one-off studio project (the Volume 1 tag has turned out to be a bit of a tease) THE HONEYDRIPPERS delivers a hit single in the atmospheric version of Phil Phillips' "Sea of Love." Also noteworthy here are faithful recreations of standards by Ray Charles ("I Got a Woman") and Roy Brown ("Good Rockin' at Midnight"). This is basically slight stuff (and with a running time of 18 minutes, it's over before you know it) but the old lemon squeezers are definitely having a heartfelt, infectious good time.

The Honey Drippers include: Robert Plant (vocals); Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Brian Setzer (guitar); Paul Schaffer (keyboards); Tony Thompson (drums).

Producers: Nugetre, The Fabulous Brill Brothers.

The Honeydrippers: Robert Plant (vocals); Nile Rodgers (guitar); Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page (guitars); Paul Shaffer (piano).

Personnel: Robbie Blunt (guitar); Jezz Woodroffe (keyboards); Paul Martinez (bass instrument); Richard Hayward (drums); Queen Bees, The King Bees.

December's Children (And Everybody's)
Also Bought
Rolling Stones December's Children (And Everybody's) CD  (1965)

Volume One
CD $10.39  3.9 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Recorded in Hollywood, California, Chicago, Illinois and London, England. DECEMBER'S CHILDREN marked a crucial point in the Stones' development. The band was beginning to move away from its blues/R&B roots toward something more uniquely its own. Certainly those roots were far from absent in the songs composed for this album, and the Stones still cover their share of the masters here (Chuck Berry, Arthur Alexander, Hank Snow), but something new was afoot. The aching ballad "As Tears Go By," complete with baroque orchestration, heralded a new direction in the Stones' songwriting. Similarly, the folk-rockish strains of "The Singer Not The Song" ...
Let It Bleed
Also Bought
Rolling Stones Let It Bleed CD  (1969)

Volume One
CD $13.55  4.8 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
The last Stones studio album of the '60s finds the band, for perhaps the first time, accurately reflecting the spirit of its age. The erstwhile bad boy outsiders of rock now found themselves firmly in the center of the social and political post-'68 whirlwind, and faced up to the challenge magnificently. The band's confident climb to its artistic peak was begun by BEGGAR'S BANQUET, but LET IT BLEED is a quantum leap even from that musical milestone. The album's opener, "Gimme Shelter," with its insinuating guitar introduction, leads us decisively out of Flower Power and into a world where rape and murder are "just ...
A New World Record - Expanded Edition

Electric Light Orchestra A New World Record - Expanded Edition CD  (1976) Bonus Tracks; Remastered

Volume One
CD $7.59  4.1 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Also available in a 3-pack with FACE THE MUSIC and DISCOVERY. 1976's A NEW WORLD RECORD is both a classic of commercial '70s pop and an archetypal ELO album. From the outer-space synths and rich orchestrations that open the album to Jeff Lynne's meticulous production and Beatlesque melodies, A NEW WORLD RECORD is magnificent ear candy. Both ambitious enough to appeal to "serious" rock fans and ultra-catchy enough to sound terrific on Top 40 radio (the plaintively gorgeous, McCartney-like "Telephone Line" and the anthemic "Livin' Thing" were well-deserved smashes), ELO was one of the few '70s bands whose appeal covered both the FM and AM spectrums. The album even resurrects "Do Ya," a classic single by Lynne's former band, the Move, in a splashy new version. The next ELO album, 1977's elaborate double-album OUT OF THIS WORLD, was probably the band's commercial high point, but A NEW WORLD RECORD is the group's artistic high-water mark. Jeff Lynne reportedly regards this album and its follow-up, Out of the Blue, as the high points in the band's history. One might ...
Face The Music

Electric Light Orchestra Face The Music CD  (1975) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Expanded Edition

Volume One
CD $7.59  4.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Also available in a 3-pack with A NEW WORLD RECORD and DISCOVERY. Master Sound releases are 24-karat gold CDs remastered from first-generation masters. This process utilizes 20-bit technology and Sony's revolutionary "Super Bit Mapping" system. ELO was big enough by 1974 that some people actually suggested that ELDORADO featured Satanic backward-masking. Of course, the idea was ludicrous; but the band playfully responded by adding a backward message to "Fire on High," the opening instrumental on 1975's FACE THE MUSIC. Besides "Fire on High," which was used as background music for countless television programs in the '70s, this ...
