Gratitude [Remastered] - Earth, Wind & Fire

Advantages: Some great 70's and 80's tracks
Disadvantages: May just be for disco (and similar style) fans

...I've been a very naughty girl recently spending obscene amounts of money treating myself, disgraceful aren't I! Ok, so when I say obscene amounts of money I actually mean the grand sum of £2.10 and when I talk about treating myself, well it was on a 2nd hand CD on Ebay, but who cares about the minor details eh! So what was the must have CD that tempted me to spend such a huge wad of cash? Well it was Earth, Wind & Fire Lets Groove, once again proving my musical taste is much older than my age. Earth, Wind & Fire are an American band formed in the very late 60's who released some classic 1970's Disco hits and some 80's classics with a bit more of a R&B edge. The band have seen many line up changes over the years and have released nearly 40 albums which include studio albums, live recordings and compilations, their singles tally is over... Read review

Advantages: A Piece of Music History
Disadvantages: None

...If you believe that the Sixties produced nothing musically beyond bland pop, then you have obviously never heard of the original power trio Cream. Formed in 1966 and breaking apart with all the force of a volcanic eruption less than three years later, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker and Eric Clapton are owed a huge debt of gratitude by every progressive rock and metal band that followed for opening the public’s minds and ears to the possibility of rock as an art form. Featuring nine studio tracks and four live performances, “Wheels of Fire” has as much power today as it had when it was first released, and is for me the best of their three full-length albums. If part of the National Curriculum were devoted to rock, this would be required listening. Entire schools would hear and hear about Baker’s stupendous natural talent on the drum kit... Read review

Advantages: You will get paralized into a trance listening to Marley! His lyrics will flow through your mind while you chill in peace!
Disadvantages: The Only disadvantage is that there could be more songs, but thats me being picky!

...All the way from sunny sunny Jamaica Re-Released Bob Marley and the Wailers - Catch A Fire! Bob Marley the Son of Reggae who has brought us such songs as "One Love", "Waiting in Vain" and "No Women No Cry", do you realy think he will release a bad album? I Don't! Catch a Fire is extreamly down to earth, this album compared to most Marley and the Wailers album realy makes you think. Bass has been used alot more so if you got a Sub get it boomin! "Catch a Fire" is an excellent debut album by the Wailers. As you can see by the front cover the "Herb" has be written into his songs and this amazing mix of chilling reggae tunes and the soft flowin lyrics of Bob Marley realy is worth listening to. This remastered version is alot more clear and no static on the tracks which bring the quality up. If you like Bob Marleys previous albums... Read review
