This was the debut album by Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen. LOST IN THE OZONE was released in 1971, after the band moved to San Francisco from Michigan. The group's mix of Western swing, country, rockabilly, & novelty songs was not typical of the Haight-Ashbury music scene. In retrospect, this album, with its earthy mix of assorted genres culled from the early days of rock & roll, seems to have been ahead of its time. They only other Bay Area band similar to them at the time was the ...

The third & commercially most successful album by Los Angeles rappers Compton's Most Wanted contained such terse narratives as " Dead Men Tell No Lies" & " Hit the Floor." If there hadn't been such an abundance of similar material in the early '90s, these tales might have triggered intense scrutiny & analysis. Instead, the most common response is that MC Eiht's raps aren't quite as loose or expressive as those of Spice 1, Ice Cube, Nas, or many others telling identical stories. Ron Wynn. ...

Abandoning the Bright Eyes moniker he's been performing under since his teens, Conor Oberst reverted to his birth name for his 2008 follow-up to 2007's Cassadaga. As he not only released the record under his own name but titled it Conor Oberst, it's hard not to think of the album as a new beginning or statement of purpose, as that's generally the case when a singer/songwriter splits from his main b&, but this is such a low-key record it can't support such grand theories. But that subdued attit ...

YOU FAIL ME marks the first taste of large-scale commercial success for a band long lauded by many in the know as one of the most important underground acts on the metal-minded hardcore scene. Luckily, Converge changed little after signing to Epitaph, retaining its trademark mix of half-screamed/half-grunted vocals, brutal guitars, & stop-start rhythms. The production is exquisitely raw & immediate, providing the listener with an impression of sitting in the group's warehouse rehearsal space ...

Here it is domestically -- finally -- 18 tracks of prime rockin' Conway Twitty from his first five years in the music biz. That first five years set the template for a remarkable five decades, where he nailed a charting record at one time or another. & he did it while he was alive, so Elvis doesn't count. This set, with impeccable liner notes by the great Colin Escott, begins right where it should with " It's Only Make Believe, the 1958 original hit version & still the best one among the man ...

Comsat Angels - Time Considered As A Helix Of Semi-Precious Stones

Time Considered as a Helix of Semi-Precious Stones, a collection of the Comsat Angels' BBC sessions from 1979-1984, is an excellent introduction to the band's early work. The performances of many of these songs are at such a high level that the band views them as being better than their studio versions. A sparse, slightly faster rendition of "Independence Day" along with a powerful take on "JuJu Money, highlight the first session with John Peel from 1979. (It was Peel who got the ball rolling f
