And about the CD itself... it's great and that's basically all I have to say. Even if you're not a big Sex Pistols fan these CD is awesome. Very good, even for the modern punk rocker. Every track is listenable and the crowd, being a live album, doesn't take away from the quality of the CD. My one wish: that this CD had more tracks. Sid lives.
If you are a Sex Pistols fan you HAVE to buy this CD... but do not pretend to hear Johnny Rotten singing as we are still in the 70s!!! Hey, he is older, his voice has changed... he sounds like the P.I.L.'s singer singing the Sex Pistols songs! But I'm sure you'll enjoy this album... *A 24 y.o. italian punk* ... Read more | |

Turn up "Prety Vacant" to ten and feel everything punk was, and should still be. Although Iggy Pop helped lay a framework, and even Alice Cooper [the band] used outrage as part of its appeal, The Ramones first album is, IMHO, the first punk record. And almost NO ONE would ever have heard it if not for their progeny. The Sex Pistols were so explosive in England, and so good, that British TV and newspapers were fascinated by them. And American TV took note, as did popular music magazines. And punk *was* the Sex Pistols-- the music and Johnny Rotten were angry, and were expressing in raw terms what they felt. And the songs on this record are a fantastic way to enter the world of the Pistols' music.

While this raw and somewhat sonically-challenged- in-spots live recording won't impress non-fans of The Jam (in fact, they may be somewhat horrified by the musical sloppiness found on this disc), it's a remarkable document of a purely British phenomenon in full live frenzy that came to an abrupt end in 1982 when the group's singer/songwriter/frontman Paul Weller decided to call it quits. No one ever accused Weller of having a pretty voice (one critic once likened Weller's singing style to that of a foreman barking orders) but the times weren't as demanding of aesthetics back then as much as wanting truth unfettered by pop music's tendency to sugarcoat the message. Which made Weller the right man with the right voice at the right time. "When You're Young", "The Eton Rifles", "Town Called Malice", and "Down At The Tube Station At Midnight" are a few of the songs that The Jam aimed at the top of the British charts which are included here. Brilliant album tracks like "Pretty Green" and B-sides like "The Butterfly Collector" are on this as well, swapping the polish found on the studio versions for a sweaty grit and frantic energy. Non-fans of The Jam should start with the several available greatest hits packages before attempting to digest this disc. For the rest of us, this collection of live tracks is one more reason to mourn the loss of a truly unique band.

Album Description As founding member of two of the UKs most successful bands - The Housemartins in the 80s and currently The Beautiful South, Heatons wry and witty observations of every day life have resulted in a string of top ten hits and million selling albums for him over the past 18 years. Heaton continues to record and tour with The Beautiful South whilst pursuing his solo career under the guise of Biscuit Boy. Following in the foot steps of past compilers Morrissey, Ian Brown and Paul Weller, Heaton introduces the listener to some of his all time loves, and in his case its a gloriously soulful mix of country, rhythm and blues, folk, hip hop and soul. The album is a genuinely joyful ride, with some beautiful tracks from artists such as Al Green, Manu Chao, Ugly Duckling, Willie Nelson, and Hem. Reviews (2)

Are you a Costello completist? If you are, there's no doubt you'll buy this 12-disc box set! The 28-tracks included here (disc 2 also contains an "uncredited" alternate version of "Alison") are basically taken from EC's first 12 singles, each in a replica picture sleeve (including disc 11 with the inside-out jacket of "Accidents Will Happen", which also contains 2 tracks that made up disc 9, the giveaway single for some attendees of the Dominion Theatre concerts of 1978). This little "chest" includes a 12-page booklet that gives a track-by-track history of each of the singles. An obvious attempt at "cashing in" by the record company, this box (the first of 3) covers the 1977/03 to 1980/01 era of EC's singles, but the whole thing would have fitted on a single CD. For completists only, since almost all tracks are available on some compilations or remastered re-issues. You'll have to decide whether the 4 tracks making their first appearance on CD are worth the price tag ?!? ... Read more | |

"Positive Touch" is the result of that desire given run of the studio. While it certainly doesn't lack for great catchy songs, the band couldn't keep their impulses in check. As a result, "Life's Too Easy," a song that would have sounded great stripped to its basics is buried in a mish-mosh of bad piano and overwrought production. (Even the band must have figured that out, the single remix/bonus track sounds infinitely better.) There are also the O'Neill brothers' forays into psychedelia, as witnessed by "Julie Ocean" and "Sigh and Explode." While interesting, it also began to show Feargel Sharkey's limitations as a vocalist even as his ambitions were starting to exceed his grasp. Sharkey really didn't have the chops to sing soulfully, although "You're Welcome" reaches pretty hard and almost succeeds. (As would his eventual unlistenable solo albums.) If you want the kind of brilliant fast pop tunes that The Undertones provided on their first two albums, they're still here. Songs like "His Good Looking Girlfriend," "Boy Wonder" and "It's Going to Happen" still show that the Tones' had a knack for an ace hook. "Positive Touch" still holds a spot in my library (the overly dense "Sin Of Pride" never stayed), but I really can't rate it any higher than average. In this case, getting older got the better of The Undertones. ... Read more | |

If you care to actually read what I said, my reasons for disliking the later RP material is that I find it to be stale, dull and soul-less. In other words, I too prefer the '80s material based on its merits. My suspicions of 'selling out' and 'cashing in' are a result of how RP's '90s music sounded to my ear, not vice versa.
Having said that, I do like the 80's Peni stuff better, too. But my grounds for preferring the 80's repertoire is based on the merit of the 80's material, not on suspicions that the band is rehashing good old days to cash in. So, if you're new to Peni, skip "Underclass" here and get the 1st two EPs and "Death Church." If you like those, move on to "Pope Adrian 37th" (a 1995 release), then the 1989 HP Lovecraft tribute album "Cacocophony", and then finally their other stuff, including this release. I'm a huge fan of Rudi Peni singer Nick Blinko--not only his music, but his art and his writing as well. Peni's form of psychotic, hallucinatory, schizotypal punk rock is like no one else's. They bring artistic integrity and real passion to their music, and all this comes through, even on their lesser releases. Recommended for anyone who wants to hear disturbing, yet driving, hard punk influenced sounds.

More importantly, you get both sides of their debut single, with "One Chord Wonders" (in a tighter, punkier arrangement than the re-recording on CROSSING) and "Quickstep", which did not appear anywhere else. An outtake from the CROSSING sessions appears later on ("New Day Dawning", now included on the CROSSING CD reissue), as well as "We Who Wait" and a live version of "New Church". And, finally, for those who would rather not spend their money on CASTS OF THOUSANDS, you get to hear the "highlights" from that disc, too... All in all, this disc is a great addition to your CD collection if you've got CROSSING THE RED SEA and want to hear more of this woefully short-lived band.

Some tracks of note: the title track is a lot of fun replete with blazing guitar riffs. "Do You Want To Be Like Dougy Bell" is ridiculous to an extreme. "You Won't Be Merry On the North Sea Ferry" is a blast to listen to, but will make you wonder how awful the North Sea Ferry really is. "Geordie's Gone to Jail" is probably the most serious song on the album, but I take a little less seriously because I have a version of it in Japanese. This CD is worth every penny! ... Read more | |
