Who Made Who

Advantages: The Title Track - Who Made Who
Disadvantages: Only has one great new song

...and three new songs, "01. Who Made Who" which is a great song and really worth getting your hands on. "03. D.T." Which is an instrumental and also "08. Chase The Ace" which is another instrumental. If you are familiar with AC/DC you will see this as an unofficial greatest hits, If your not an AC/DC fan then this is a good first album to buy. This includes the thunderous Hells Bells and You Shook Me all night long which I think are fantastic songs ...
...For Those About to Rock (We Salute You) which is simply superb to hear it blasting from your speakers. AC/DC fans will enjoy the new songs on this album, people who enjoy rock, but haven't heard AC/DC will enjoy it even more with so many AC/DC great songs on this ...

Review of Who Made Who (Film Soundtrack For Maximum Overdrive) [Digipak] [Remastered] - AC/DC

CODA B-sides

Advantages: Some good gem's to add to the collection
Disadvantages: Few tracks not in the same league as the best zeppelin work.

Coda. Led Zeppelin's 1982 release (by jimmy page mostly) of one live track and b-sides. The concept of releasing a cd under the zeppelin name was slightly odd as drummer bonham was 2 years gone. Jimmy page devised the idea of releasing a cd after the influctuation of zeppelin bootlegs (live and unrelased tracks) began circulation after the bands demise and even during their hey day. Ive given the tracks a rating out of ten based on zeppelin fans ...
...9/10 Track 2-Poor tom 9/10 Track 3-i cant quit you baby 9/10 Track 4-Walters walk 7/10 Track 5-ozone baby 7/10 Track 6-darlene 7/10 Track 7-bonzos montreux 3/10 Track 8-wearing and tearing 5/10 overall a good addition to the zeppelin range. The tracks are basicly B-sides and one live track. ...

I Know It's Over

Advantages: Great songs and great singing
Disadvantages: Still don't dig Eternal Life

...6 concerts in Jeff Buckley's Mystery White Boy tour make up this live album. My ratings are as follows: [*] - Nothing really catches the attention. [**] - Something grabs my attention. [***] - Gets me air-drumming, air-guitaring and singing along to the track. 1. Dream Brother Slow to start, and though in the buildup there is some laidback vocal improvisation, Jeff is having to squeeze hard for some of those falsetto notes. [**] 2. I Woke Up In A ...
...heavy, and the riffs dirty. [***] 3. Mojo Pin Solid but for the final bridge where Jeff slips into sheepish singing - however he does come on strongly for the finale. [**] 4. Lilac Wine As if Buckley has had too much to drink here, what with the guitar losing its way and his vocals being reduced to a croak at the end, though the improvisation in the singing is as strong as it is soulful. [***] 5. What Will You Say Similar to Dream Brother in that ...

Review of Mystery White Boy - Jeff Buckley

X-Tina's X-Mas

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: Final Dance track

“My Kind Of Christmas” came out in 2000 and was the first Christmas album for the Pop singer Christina Aguilera. Coming directly off her debut album, which was then re-recorded in Spanish, it was released prior to her “Stripped” years and so has her in a position where she was much more accessible to the 'family' market. Here she mixes traditional carols with well-covered Christmas classic and some of her own original ones. 1.“Christmas Time” We ...
...that I felt made a strong impression as it shows that here she is down to bring an album that reflects how her debut album sounded with the heavy R&B influence, but she ensured that it sounded as though it stuck to the main 'Christmas' themes. It was one of only two singles from the album, and I felt that it was a nice way to get it underway. **Four Starr** 2.“This Year” We see that she comes in with another fresh tune (a non-cover) here and she ...

Review of My Kind Of Christmas [ECD] - Christina Aguilera

A let down in comparison with the previous 3 volumes

Advantages: Some good tracks
Disadvantages: Not as good as the previous volumes, less covers

I have been eagerly anticipating Live Lounge Vol 4 having loved the previous 3 volumes. However, I was very disappointed with this collection. It contains less covers than the previous volumes. The covers for me where always the best thing about it. There are several good tracks including Little Boots doing Beat Again, Biffy's Love, Sex, Magic and Kasabian's cover of Gwen Stefani. I found Lady Gaga's Pokerface an unexpected highight. However, there ...
