Pearl Jam Live In London (May 29th 2000)
Pearl Jam: Eddie Vedder (vocals); Mike McCready, Stone Gossard (guitar); Jeff Ament (bass); Matt Cameron (drums). This is part 4 of a 72-CD series documenting Pearl Jam's 2000 World Tour. Though Pearl Jam began its life as part of a genre that found a massive audience rather quickly, Eddie Vedder and company have never done things the mainstream way. From its notorious distrust and avoidance of the rock star lifestyle, to its David-and-Goliath-like battles with corporate dragon Ticketmaster, Pearl Jam has always been a people's band. The group's series of simultaneously released live albums marketed through the Internet is another subversive chapter in its career. The interesting thing about this 25-volume double-disc series documenting the group's 2000 European tour is not only the depth of repertoire it has amassed over the years--the diversity of the sets is impressive--but the consistently palpable emotional commitment it brings to its music night after night. This series offers a unique opportunity tofollow that thread from one performance to the next, offering a sonic still-life portrait whose intimacy is unprecedented in the world of commercial concert recordings.

Dub Gone Crazy Vol.1 (The Evolution Of Dub At King Tubby's 1975-1979)
Personnel includes: Osbourne "King Tubby" Ruddock; Carlton Barrett, Sly Dunbar, Santa Davis, Robbie Shakespeare, Aston Barrett, Tony Chin, Geoffrey Chung, Earl Smith, Carl Harvey, Keith Sterling, Jackie Mittoo, Winston Wright, Tommy McCook,Lennox Brown, Bobby Ellis, Skully Sims, The Aggrovators. Producer: Bunny Lee. Compilation producer: Steve Barrow. Includes liner notes by Steve Barrow. The UK reggae reissue label Blood & Fire has unearthed dozens of lost dub and roots classics, but DUB GONE CRAZY by legendary producer/mixer King Tubby is one of the label's absolute best. The 14 rhythms on which these tracks are based are all taken from Jamaican singles of the late '60s and early '70s largely written by producer Bunny Lee. As usual with Lee's tracks, the rhythms are sprightlier and more melodic than the heavier, dread-filled sounds favored by his contemporaries Bob Marley and Lee "Scratch" Perry. King Tubby, along with his mixer proteges Prince Jammy, Prince Philip, and Scientist, turns these rhythms into classic heavy dub, emphasizing bass and organ over the skittering percussion and novel sound effects favored by some other dub mixers. Tubby and friends also use more of the tracks' original vocals than some mixers, fading them in and out of the constantly shifting dub landscapes. SKU: 1007112

New Chautauqua
Solo performer: Pat Metheny (acoustic, 6- & 12-string electric & 15-string harp guitars, electric bass). Recorded at Talent Studio, Oslo, Norway in August 1978. Guitarist Pat Metheny is one of the few artists that can perform an entire album by himself and sound like whole orchestra on his own. NEW CHAUTAUQUA finds the modern guitar master employing a myriad of stringed instruments, in both solo works and multi-tracked collages, to great effect. Each piece is awash in Metheny's signature pastoral style, full of lush strummed chords and angular melodic lines. So complete is the guitarist's musicalcreation that it is difficult to distinguish the seams dividing his many instrumental voices, sounding as if he had played them all simultaneously. For the listener, this creates a sublime sonic experience. The tracks range from dense epics like the opening title track to the programmatic "Daybreak," a delicate solo work that produces a dramatic effect that is both lonesome and comforting. Metheny stays acoustic for much of the disc, employing stunning finger picking on the folk-styled "Country Poem" and the intricate "Sueno Con Mexico." The most haunting piece is the darkly lit "Hermitage," a melancholy work that displays Metheny's renowned expressiveness. Also included is the mood piece "Long Ago Child/Fallen Star," which hints at the guitarist's equally inspiring experimental side. SKU: 5047962

1.22.03 Acoustic (Live)
Maroon 5: Jesse Carmichael (vocals, guitar, piano); Adam Levine (vocals, guitar); Ryan Dusick (vocals, percussion); James Valentine (guitar); Mickey Madden (bass guitar). Recording information: The Hit Factory, New York, New York (01/22/2003). Following up the runaway success of 2002's SONGS ABOUT JANE, Maroon 5 unveiled this (mostly) acoustic EP in 2004 to tide fans over until the group's next full-length album. With the exception of a loose, live rendition of AC/DC's "Highway to Hell," this set is unplugged, allowing the spotlight to shine on frontman Adam Levine's emotive vocals. The remarkably catchy hit single "This Love" opens the disc, followed by the jazzy, piano-driven "Sunday Morning" and the pensive, percussion-laden "She Will Be Loved." The standout song here, however, is abeautifully spare rendition of the Beatles' "If I Fell," a thoughtful selection that perfectly complements Maroon 5's bittersweet love songs. SKU: 6584819

Peace Sells....but Who's Buying
Megadeth: Dave Mustaine (vocals, guitar); Chris Poland (guitar); David Ellefson (bass, background vocals); Gar Samuelson (drums). Additional personnel: Mike Anderson, Paul Sudin, Casey McMackin, Randy Burns (background vocals). Recorded at The Music Grinder, Los Angeles, California. Guitarist Dave Mustaine was an original member of thrash-pioneers Metallica. But he was booted from the band during the recording of that band's debut album, KILL 'EM ALL. Instead of moping around, Mustaine returned to California and immediately formed another group--Megadeth. He promised his fans that the new outfit would be faster and more lethal than his former band, and Megadeth's 1985 debut, KILLING IS MY BUSINESS, AND BUSINESS IS GOOD, made good on this threat. Megadeth and Metallica duked it out in the music press, but both acts thrived. In 1986, each released its finest record, Metallica's MASTER OF PUPPETS and Megadeth's PEACE SELLS...BUT WHO'S BUYING? While Metallica initially shunned MTV, Megadeth used the video format to its advantage--becoming the first thrash band to do so. Both "Wake Up Dead" and the anthemic title track received constant play on MTV's HEAVY METAL HOUR; the latter song's brief bass intro was even usedas the theme to MTV news in the early-'90s. Tracks such as "The Conjuring," "Devil's Island," "Good Mourning/Black Friday," and a cover of Jeff Beck's "I Ain't Superstitious" proved to be just as brutal. PEACE SELLS is an influential, all-time heavy metal classic. SKU: 1003422

I Am Shelby Lynne
Personnel: Shelby Lynne (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars); Bill Bottrell (electric, 12-string & pedal steel guitars, harmonica, organ, keyboards, bass, drums, percussion); Roger Fritz (guitar, dobro, slide mandolin); Jay Joyce (guitar, organ, keyboards, bass); Greg D'Augelli (flute, horns, acoustic bass); BillCoulson (horns); Dorothy Overstreet (drums); The Memphis Strings. Shelby Lynne won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best New Artist. I AM SHELBY LYNNE is a genre-blending affair marked by lustrous production and surprisingly mature songwriting. Lynne dips into soul, R&B, folk, and rock to forge a collection of radio-ready tracks that pay tribute to many of the great female singers who inspired her. "Your Lies" approaches Spectorian pop grandeur filtered through a '90s sensibility. On "Leavin'," the singer attempts to revisit the warmth of Aretha Franklin-like vintage soul. "Life Is Bad" may please fans of Sheryl Crow and Lucinda Williams. "Why Can't You Be" almost sounds like a tribute to Williams, expect for the blaring horns that bring the track to unexpected corners. The lightly hypnotic "Lookin' Up" calls upon strings, flute, synthesizers, and a slightly Stereolab-like intro for eminently palatable results. "Where I'm From" is an honest and straightforward tribute to the singer's Alabama home. And on "Black Light Blue," Lynne sounds like a world-weary chanteuse, working a smoky room in Southern Texas. Fans of radio-friendly female singer/songwriters will want to pounce on I AM SHELBY LYNNE. SKU: 5053294

3 Feet High And Rising (Expanded Edition)
3 FEET HIGH AND RISING includes a limited edition bonus disc containing rare B-sides and remixes. De La Soul: Trugoy The Dove, Posdnuos, P.A. Pase Master Mase. Additional personnel: Q-Tip, Jungle Brothers, Prince Paul, Red Alert, MC Lyte (vocals); Al Watts, Donald "Kid Wonder" Newkirk, Human Mix Machine Wise, Misha, Popmaster Hight,China, Jette, Andre Myers, Granny (background vocals). Engineers include: Sue Fisher, Bob Coulter, Dan Miller. Recorded at Calliope, New York, New York. They were like a breath of fresh air when they showed up on the scene in 1989, bringing a new vision to the young genre still known as rap. With one album De La Soul helped usher in the New School that dominated hip hop before the rise of Gangsta. Sure, some of 3 FEET HIGH AND RISING may already sound dated, like some strange relic from an imaginary 1989 summer of love, but it's still packed with the energy and humor that made it so irresistible in the first place. Posdnuos, Trugoy and Mase rapped in a lazily melodic code you could spend hours trying to decipher, but once you accepted the "Change In Speak," it was easier to just lay back and let the diverse samples move your butt. The hits still sound fresh--pop chestnuts like "Eye Know" and "Buddy" (featuring the first appearance of A Tribe Called Quest), as well as self-descriptive songs like "The Magic Number." And although the game show theme that binds together the loose frame of the record is a bit silly, it must be remembered that it created the current craze of interludes and asides found on today's rap albums (from Wu Tang Clan to Too Short). 3 FEET HIGH... is the epitome of Afro-centric peace-oriented rap; yet De La Soul moved on very quickly from this manifestation of the style, although they've yet to lose their ingenuity or intelligence. A visit to the D.A.I.S.Y. Age can do you no harm--it might even keep you sane in these days of guns and gangs. SKU: 1083747

Garage Inc.
GARAGE INC. includes the GARAGE DAYS RE-REVISITED EP as well as rare B-sides and newly recorded covers. Metallica: James Hetfield (vocals, guitar); Kirk Hammett (guitar); Cliff Burton (bass); Jason Newsted (bass); Lars Ulrich (drums). Additional personnel: Jerry Cantrell, Les Claypool, Pepper Keenan, Sean Kinney, Jim Martin, John Popper, Gary Rossington. Producers: Bob Rock, Metallica, Mark Whitaker. Engineers include: Randy Staub, Csaba Petocz, Jeffrey Norman. Disc one recorded at The Plant Studios, Sausalito, California in September & October 1998. Disc two recorded at various locations between 1984 and 1998. Includes liner notes by David Fricke. "Whiskey In The Jar" won the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance. Anybody who's anybody in rock has been in a cover band. Although "cover" has a negative connotation, it is the playing of others' material that forges the identity and agenda of future superstars. Every recorded cover tune from Metallica plus 11 newly recorded covers are included in this double-CD set. They combine to give fans a glimpse into the wide variety of influences that have shaped metal's mightiest band. Disc one is the new material, and Metallica place their undeniable stamp on each track. Transforming Bob Seger'smidtempo "Turn the Page" into a real rocker, and converting Nick Cave's "Loverman" into sheer brutality. Closer to the mark of Metallica's style, a Mercyful Fate medley retains the spirit of the original. James Hetfield's growls give an extra dose of attitude to Thin Lizzy's "Whiskey In The Jar," while an acoustic radio station jam of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Tuesday's Gone" is a southern delight. Disc 2 contains GARAGE DAYS RE-REVISITED, which had been out of print and heavily bootlegged. Rounding out the package are B-sides and one-offs including four Motorhead covers the band rehearsed for Lemmy's birthday party. SKU: 1000379

Love Songs (A Compilation - Old And New)
Recording information: 1980 - 2001. This 2004 collection features romantic hits that Phil Collins personally chose from his extensive solo catalog, including the emotive "Against All Odds," the pleading "One More Night," and the gentle "You'll Be in My Heart." However, there are also obscure tunes found here, and these songs make this compilation unique. For example, this two-disc set includes a rehearsal version of Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors," a song Collins often covered in concert during the late 1980s. This R&B-inflected rendition contains a clever vocal arrangement from Amy Keys and Brad Cole that employs rich harmonies, leaving the instrumental accompaniment in the backseat. Another Collins rarity is his live version of the Jerome Kern song "The Way You Look Tonight." Collins's take on this standard avoidsbeing overly sentimental, with Harry Kim's impassioned flugelhorn solo adding a jazzy and sensitive tone. For fans of Collins's softer side, LOVE SONGS is quite a treasure. SKU: 6576570

Mest [ECD] [PA]
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Mest: Tony Lovato,Jeremiah Rangel (vocals, guitar); Matt Lovato (bass); NickGigler (drums). Additional personnel includes: John Feldmann (vocals, guitar); Brian Arthur (guitar); Geoff Zanelli (keyboards); Benji Madden. Recorded at Foxy Studios, Marina Del Rey, California. Depending, to use an outmoded phonographic term, on where you drop the needle on MEST, you might come away with the wrong idea. Although the band's home base is clearly Green Day-descended punk-pop, with all the attitude-laden trappings that entails, there's more to their sonic story. For one thing, there's a fair amount of Goldfinger-like ska/reggae flavor cropping up throughout the album. Beyond that, though, there's a more varied, expansive approach to arrangements and production that seems far outside the pale of the Blink 182 nation, suggesting that even if kids grow tired of fourth- (fifth) wave punk, these guys will still have room to manuever. There's even a Green Day/"Time of Your Life"-type Eleanor Rigby-with-tattoos move on the acoustic guitar-plus-strings tune "Chance of a Lifetime." SKU: 6545331

Libertines, The [PA]
Recording information: Metropolis Studios, London, England. Hailed as England's answer to the Strokes, the Libertines do tread the same garage-y punk-pop path as their American brethren. Fuzzed-out guitars, ragged rock rhythms, and radiant hooks abound on their self-titled sophomore effort, as on their debut, UP THE BRACKET. But while the Stooges and NUGGETS-style raunch can be heard, it is the influence of native ancestors that distinguishes the band's music. Traces of the Kinks, and early Beatles and Rolling Stones can be heard ("Don't Be Shy"), as well as cheeky '50s throwbacks ("What Katie Did"), lager-fueled pub rockers ("Tomblands"), and arch social satire ("The Man Who Would Be King") Another key to the Libertines' success is their use of dynamics. While THE LIBERTINES rocks, it does so in a low-key, understated way. "Music When the Lights Go Out," driven by acoustic guitar, alternates dreamy, ambling verses with a punchy refrain. Theminor-key rocker "Last Post on the Bugle" is so gently melodic that its edge seems incidental. There are exceptions, of course, as on the old-school punk thrash of "Arbeit Macht Frei." Appealing and familiar, yet freshly presented, THE LIBERTINES is a very strong entry in the garage revival of the early 2000s. SKU: 6571370
