Pete Townshend originally planned The Who Sell Out as a concept album of sorts that would simultaneously mock and pay tribute to pirate radio stations, complete with fake jingles and commercials linking the tracks...

With Another Side of Bob Dylan, Dylan had begun pushing past folk, and with Bringing It All Back Home, he exploded the boundaries, producing an album of boundless imagination and skill. And it's not just that he went electric, either, rocking hard on "Subterranean Homesick Blues," "Maggie's Farm," and "Outlaw Blues"; it's that he's exploding with imagination throughout the record...

Back To Birth is Jackie's first solo record in 5 years. Since his first release in 2004, Jackie Greene has sold over 120,000 albums as a solo artist. He has toured relentlessly, performing solo shows, and as a guitarist with The Black Crowes, and as a special guest with numerous artists including Phil Lesh. He's also a member of Trigger Hippy, whose members include Joan Osborne and Steve Gorman (Black Crowes). With Back to Birth, Jackie Greene wanted to focus on the song, not guitar technique. These songs establish him as the singer, songwriter and musician. He's a solo artist, not tied to the collaborations and his association with the jam band music community that he's become better known for in recent years.

Equal parts blue-eyed soul shouter and wild-eyed poet-sorcerer, Van Morrison is among popular music's true innovators, a restless seeker whose incantatory vocals and alchemical fusion of R&B, jazz, blues, and Celtic folk produced perhaps the most spiritually transcendent body of work in the rock & roll canon. Subject only to the whims of his own muse, his recordings cover extraordinary stylistic ground yet retain a consistency and purity virtually unmatched among his contemporaries, connected by the mythic power of his singular musical vision and his incendiary vocal delivery: spiraling repetitions of wails and whispers that bypass the confines of language to articulate emotional truths far beyond the scope of literal meaning.

Despite the initial news and the rumors as to the deteriorating health of Joni Mitchell which flooded the Internet earlier today, word comes that the reports of Joni Mitchell being in a coma and unresponsive proved not to be true. For once this week, we can breathe a sigh of relief. With all the news so far this year of passings, hearing news about the loss of yet another icon so early in 2015 would be tough to take. And sometimes the Internet can’t be the most reliable source, as some sites just love to drive traffic, even at the cost of integrity. So, to celebrate, I thought I would run an early concert, a club date. Recorded at Club 47 in Cambridge, Massachusetts around January of 1968. A solo acoustic set – featuring Joni Mitchell – a career on the rise.

"German rock group Element of Crime began in 1985, shortly after a different Berlin-based band to which Sven Regener (vocals, guitar, and trumpet) and Jakob Ilja (guitar) belonged dissolved. Not wanting to quit music, however, the duo added bassist Paul Lukas, drummer Uwe Bauer, and saxophonist Jürgen Fabritius, called themselves Element of Crime and started playing around town. In 1986 their debut full-length, Basically Sad, was released on indie label ATA TAK, after which Polydor began to take interest in the group..."

Though Rogers achieved success at the tail end of the '60s with his band The First Edition, it wasn't until he fully crossed over into the Country market that international fame came calling. Ironically, his move away from the Pop charts actually brought him more success once Country Music began to crossover into the same market he had initially given up on. Contains the albums Love Lifted Me (1976) and Kenny Rogers (1977). 21 tracks.

Although bassist Tony Levin has played on countless albums since the early '70s, he did not get around to issuing his first album until the late '90s. Perhaps to make up for lost time, Levin has cranked out solo releases on a consistent basis since his 1996 solo debut, World Diary. 2002 saw the release of his fourth solo outing in six years, the double-live disc Double Espresso.

Open All Night had the unwieldy pressure of being the follow-up album to a surprise hit. The Georgia Satellites' self-titled offering, issued in 1986, yielded the smash single "Keep Your Hands to Yourself," which was also an MTV staple for six months. The track and its accompanying video were viewed as novelties by radio and MTV, so when Open All Night appeared, the "joke" was over...

At the beginning of 1991 and after recording a demo, Daisley leaves the band and is replaced by the actor and singer Rob Lewis Jones, who also discovers his vocation is on the theaters and not in the studios, so the band again looses a vocalist, just when they had been offered a contract with the Dutch label SI...

Without a doubt, Harrison's first solo recording, originally issued as a triple album, is his best.
