Otis Redding: Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul [Collector's Edition]

Read "Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul [Collector's Edition]" reviewed by Mike Perciaccante


It's tough to review a classic album. What new can be said? In the case of Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul, quite a lot. The beauty of this reissue is that the first 11 songs on each of the set's two discs constitute different versions of the original album--one mono, one stereo. Mono versions ...

Mick Hucknall: Tribute To Bobby

Read "Tribute To Bobby" reviewed by Mike Perciaccante


Two decades into his career and a good decade after his last U.S. chart success, Simply Red lead singer Mick Hucknall releases his solo debut.

Read "Three From The Vault" reviewed by Doug Collette


A multi-track recording fully mastered and shelved for nigh on thirty years, Grateful Dead's Three From the Vault marks the beginning of a significant period in the San Francisco rock band's musical progression.

Miles Davis: The Very Best of Miles Davis: The Warner Bros. Sessions 1985-1991

Read "The Very Best of Miles Davis: The Warner Bros. Sessions 1985-1991" reviewed by John Kelman


Miles Davis' final decade was filled with controversy. Accusations of “sell-out became even more vehement in 1985 when, after thirty years with Columbia, the late trumpeter jumped ship and signed with Warner Bros. That said, he issued two highly successful studio albums, participated on two soundtracks, and hit the road hard with a series of must-see ...

Grateful Dead: Live at The Cow Palace New Year's Eve 1976

Read "Live at The Cow Palace New Year's Eve 1976" reviewed by Doug Collette


With Live at the Cow Palace, Grateful Dead Productions' newly-formed alliance with Rhino is off to an auspicious start.

Beyond Description: Grateful Dead 1973-1989

Read "Beyond Description: Grateful Dead 1973-1989" reviewed by Doug Collette


Serendipity is dead... Grateful Dead that is. A successor to the similarly massive and comparably gorgeous box set The Golden Road (1965-1972) , Beyond Description (1973-1989) depicts the latter day Grateful Dead's utter and perhaps naïve willingness to surrender to their muse for inspiration, whether it be on the stage or in the studio. ...
