After four years of nearly nonstop performing, CCR sounds as polished and tight as ever on this album. Of the two hit singles from the LP, "Hey Tonight" and "Have You Ever Seen The Rain?," the latter’s slower ballad format clearly suggests the band was exploring new areas of its music, including a developing emphasis on instrumentals. With this swing of the pendulum, the creative tasks would in the future be shared by all members of the group.

Have You Ever Seen the Rain?
Hey Tonight

lthough their styles were regions apart and they'd never performed together previously, Georgia harmonica ace Sonny Terry and Texas guitar titan Lightnin' Hopkins fit like foot in sock when producer Kenneth S. Goldstein paired them at Rudy Van Gelder's studio on October 26, 1960. As LeRoi Jones observed in the original album notes, "There is a meeting of ways, where the light and the sad seem to come together simply as blues." Selections six through 10 were recorded the following year, and Terry was back in the more familiar company of another great guitarist, his longtime partner Brownie McGhee.

This classic session is the ultimate in cool jazz. Bill Perkins' mellow tone matches quite well with the quiet but inwardly passionate playing of pianist John Lewis, guitarist Jim Hall, bassist Percy Heath and drummer Chico Hamilton. Lewis is featured with the rhythm section on "I Can't Get Started," Hall is added for "Skylark," and the full group plays three standards plus Lewis' memorable and atmospheric "2 Degrees East, 3 Degrees West."

Everest is a group of Los Angeles music community alumni and friends who decided to create music together. The result is the album Ghost Notes, a release of Vapor Records. Everest was formed by Russell Pollard (vocals, guitar, drums), J. Soda (guitar, keyboards, vocals), Rob Douglas (bass, vocals) and Joel Graves (guitar, keyboards, vocals), with the help of friend and drummer Davey Latter. Kevin Bronson of the Los Angeles Times observed that the band members “sport resumes longer than the intro to ‘Cortez The Killer’ and it's true, these guys have spent time in bands such as Sebadoh, the Folk Implosion, Earlimart, Mike Stinson, Slydell, John Vanderslice, and the Watson Twins.

For the follow up to his classic Sweet Baby James, archetypal sensitive singer-songwriter-guitar player James Taylor wisely elected not to stray too far from the approach that had worked so well on his previous album. One of the most memorable tunes here, "Hey Mister That's Me Up On The Jukebox" is one of the more effective songs to bemoan the plight of the lonely balladeer, evidence that James Taylor was a pioneer of the introspective troubadour style. “You’ve Got a Friend,” “Highway Song,” “Riding On a Railroad,” and the touchingly beautiful “You Can Close Your Eyes” are all highlights of this magical album.

This Audiophile Classic is a Stunning Album and the Sound is Remarkable!

Rickie Lee Jones' self-titled 1979 debut is one of the most impressive debuts for a singer/songwriter ever!

Includes the hits "Chuck E's in Love" and "Young Blood," as well as "Danny's All-Star Joint" and "Coolsville" which are just as good.

Austin's Shearwater returns with their hugely ambitious followup to 2006's Palo Santo. Rook meditates on man's intersection with the natural world. Images of animals and landscapes act as metaphors for human relationships, a dark fairy tale encased in a cycle of songs.

Jonathan Meiburg's bold, soaring voice, occasionally falsetto, still anchors the songs, which broaden his pastoral pro-folk chaotic celestial mindbend into new realms. Beyond the continuing touchstones of late Talk Talk, Nico and John Cale, there are now allusions to Van Morrison and hints of Joni Mitchell. All this is set in a newly lush sonic gorgeousness of harp, strings and woodwinds atop the magnificent rhythm section of Thor Harris and Kim Burke. This LP version comes on 180g Vinyl in a Stoughton gatefold jacket and includes MP3s and a bonus track.

Mahalia Jackson's deep soulfulness, the passion of her Christian conviction and a belief in the power of her music led her to breakthrough in the U.S. where she appeared at Carnegie Hall and took her to Europe where she performed at the Vatican. It did not, however, though many had wished it so, lead her to jazz, blues and rock ’n’ roll. The public’s wide acceptance of her music proved her right in pursuing her own spiritual path first and foremost, although some critical listeners claimed to have spotted commercial undertones in her inimitable, highly expressive singing.

This live recording from the Newport Festival from 1958 cannot be accused of having been made for commercial reasons because it by no means reflects the common cliches of gospel singing. There is no rhythm group, no chorus and no clapping of hands so no sound is left unheard here. Mahalia’s soft, raucous voice retains its volume and warmth in moments of drama as well as in whispered passages. In this performance she is accompanied only by a piano or occasionally a Hammond organ with a cloud of chords. This is a pure, authentic musical experience that is free of style and trends, making it all the more meaningful and rare all these years later. Hear it in all its sonic glory here on this 180g Import LP!

Three famous and famous-sounding Ballets by Stravinsky, all conducted by Antal Dorati and packaged together here by Speakers Corner. This extensive 180g Import 3 LP Box Set also includes a slip case and deluxe 12 page booklet.

Stravinsky Ballets Dorati Included Works:

Mercury SR90216 Stravinsky: Petrouchka/Dorati/The Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. Petrushka was born of Stravinsky’s vision of a long-haired musician hammering indiscriminately at the piano keys and engaging in a furious contest with the orchestra answering with vehement protests and acoustic fisticuffs. As was the case with The Rite of Spring and The Firebird, Sergei Diaghilev and his Russian ballet had their share in ensuring that the “burlesque” in the four scenes would be suitable for the stage.

The clown-doll Petrushka revels in his spiteful teasing and pranks at the Shrovetide fair. The orchestra contributes swirling dance figures, blaring brass and scurrying strings to his high-spirited clownery but then the Moor enters and dances with the Ballerina, arousing jealousy in Petrushka. Although the clown-doll does not survive this bitter-sweet story, he triumphs at the end, his ghost mocking the crowd at the fair.

This highly inventive music combines folksong, popular music and the waltz, all bounded together by exhilating rhythms which are often taken to thunderous extremes. With its outstanding sound, this recording is a must-have in any Stravinsky collection.

Mercury SR90226 Stravinsky: The Firebird/Dorati/The London Symphony Orchestra. The Firebird can almost be described as a work of fate, since it is not only the first of several ballets that Stravinsky wrote for Sergei Diaghilev and his Ballets Russes but also marks his international breakthrough as a composer. In comparison with his other earlier stage works, the ecstatic, sharply contoured Rite of Spring for example, The Firebird, with its melodic character, is a far gentler work altogether. There are unmistakable reminiscences of the musical language of Rimsky-Korsakov and Tchaikovsky as well as snatches of late-Romantic harmonies; all this lends the music the charm of the Russian tradition.

In his performance, Dorati chooses the golden mean in that he has his ensemble produce a highly colorful but by no means glaring sound. Thus the listener is given the opportunity to follow the development of the finely chiselled motifs which are so characteristic of this early composition. Happily, the chamber-music-like transparency is preserved even in the loud, more exposed passages and the sound leaves the loudspeakers with a sprightly, athletic tread.

Mercury SR90253 Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring/Dorati/The Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. While he was finishing the score of The Firebird, the idea came to Stravinsky for a pagan, ritual scenario. The background history of Le Sacre du printemps is well known: while the modernists praised the work, the conservative public thought they were being hoaxed. The reason for their irritation and the scandalous fiasco of the premiere is still audible to this day. Stravinsky carries the aggressive, hammering rhythms to the extreme, casting them in atonal harmonies which feed on the alternation between a red-hot and a mild mixture, as Stravinsky put it.

Dorati urges on his ensemble with robust tempi, and the orchestra is quick to respond to all the refinements of the tightly knit movement. It appears to cope effortlessly with the extremes of contrast and manages to amalgamate the rhythmic excesses with the tenderness of the numerous tiny motifs and figures which seem to sprout like flowers out of hard rock. The excellent recording technique captures both the extreme loudness and the finely pulsating tones, resulting in a sound in which no detail goes unheard. The listener can be sure that this Stravinsky deserves the rating "excellent" both for the interpretation and for the sound.

180g Import LP With 8 Bonus Tracks

The Jam's second album, This Is The Modern World, was released in 1977 just after their In The City debut. Despite generally bad reviews from critics at the time, the album does have its shining moments including "Life From a Window" and the “The Modern World.” But it's also interesting as a piece of history for its lyrical content, which, as the album’s title promised, is a snapshot of a day in the life of the declining British Empire during the late 1970s. This 180g Import Vinyl version is housed in a gatefold cover and contains 8 bonus tracks from the BBC sessions.

Released in 1970, this was the third album from Os Mutantes, the geniuses of wacked out Brazilian psychedelic rock. They may have been trying to pay homage to their better known icons back in the States, but in doing so they created something that went beyond all that until, 30 years later, they became the ones that everyone was trying to imitate. This album, further testimony to their limitless creativity and considered by many to be their best, was recorded during the height of the Brazilian military regime’s crack down on artists, and fellow members of the Tropicalia movement, Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil had already been sent into exile in the U.K. Available here on 180g Import LP.

Along with the Stooges, the New York Dolls were largely responsible for pioneering the sound and attitude of punk, and this, their self-titled debut, is one of the founding documents of post-'60s rock. Outrageous, shambolic and bursting with energy, the Dolls borrowed from the amped-up, bluesy swagger of the Rolling Stones, the pop confections of Phil Spector, and the campy theatrics that would flower with the glam movement, yet brought it all together with a visceral impact that recalled the jolt of early rock & roll.

Released shortly after Stevie Wonder completed his 1972 tour with the Rolling Stones, Talking Book went on to reach #3 in the U.S. and it serves as the second release in what is widely regarded as his classic period. Despite the strong initial disapproval from label execs, Wonder broke completely from the Motown sound and philosophy here and the record's phenomenal success forced Motown to grant him complete artistic freedom over his work. Talking Book also helped prove to the music industry that R&B artists could find widespread appeal with rock audiences. Features the #1 pop and R&B staple, “Superstition.” Now available on this 180g Import LP housed in a gatefold jacket.

Turning Point was recorded live in 1969 during a show at NYC’s famed Fillmore East just after Mick Taylor left to join the Rolling Stones.

PJ Harvey’s second album, 1993’s Rid Of Me, is an art-punk classic that pushes the genre and the listener to extremes. Alternating between searing noise/feedback and sparse open spaces, Rid Of Me is truly an emotional experience. As usual, legendary producer Steve Albini maximizes every space and sound, working with that exacting, mechanical precision that he has become known for, the perfect complement to Harvey’s harsh, stark, disturbed songwriting. #52 on Pitchfork’s 'Top 100 Albums of the 1990s,' PJ Harvey’s best album is back in print here on 180g vinyl for the first time in years!

Keb' Mo's self-titled debut is an edgy, ambitious collection of gritty country blues. The contemporary blues-based artist pursues new ground here, trying to incorporate some of the sensibilities of the slacker revolution without losing touch of the tradition that makes the blues the breathing, vital art form it is. His gutsy guitar playing and impassioned vocals, as well as his surprisingly accomplished songwriting, make Keb' Mo' a debut to remember.

Outstanding '60s electric blues, featuring a young Charley Musselwhite as he hones his distinctive harp style and Harvey Mandel with incredible guitar accompaniment.

Smiley Lewis made several fabulous singles, had a booming, terrific voice and received the same great backing and support that defined the city's R&B sound.

The 1970 self titled debut from Detroit's nastiest, most shredding funk-rock group. Arising from the ashes of George Clinton's Plainfield, New Jersey-led R&B group, The Parliments, Funkadelic formed in the late '60s and, in addition to Clinton, included the blazing guitar of Eddie Hazel, organist Mickey Atkins, rhythm guitarist Tawl Ross and drummer Tiki Fulwood. Though firmly rooted in funk and soul, Funkadelic incorporated a dark psychedelic element, influenced by Hendrix and Sly Stone, to create a sound that was unparalleled at the time and since. Sampled by everyone from DJ Shadow to Ice Cube, De La Soul and the Beastie Boys, Funkadelic still sounds fresh today and is the first solid example of George Clinton's eccentric genius.

Maggot Brain, released in 1971, is Funkadelic's all-out masterpiece. Absolutely no one working in soul and funk at the time had the scope, vision and, let's be honest, sheer lunacy to pull off the kind of record that George Clinton and his collaborators have made here. Eccentric funk jams are bookended with tracks like "Maggot Brain" and "Wars Of Armageddon," which are some of the heaviest tracks ever committed to tape. The title track and album opener are nothing short of mind-blowing. An essential classic and the deepest album to come out of the Parliament-Funkadelic canon.

Originally released in 1978, Brian Eno's second album collaboration with Dieter Moebius and Hans-Joachim Roedelius of Cluster is full of blissed-out instrumentals, made up of repeated synthesizer patterns and sustained guitar. Reminiscent of the ambient style from Eno's collaborations with Robert Fripp, After The Heat is a classic piece of German kosmische musik.

Moebius and Roedelius, a.k.a. Cluster, released this, their fourth album in 1976. Electronic rhythms combine with bubbling synths, piano and guitar to create sonic landscapes of pure bliss. Some of the greatest ambient electronic music ever, Cluster was on the cutting edge of German space-rock and their influence can still be felt today.

Newman's second album from 1970 finds him much more comfortable performing his own material in the studio and as an artist. Opposite of his debut, the songs on this album were cut with a small combo (featuring Ry Cooder) allowing more of Newman's blusey vocal style. The songs are much stronger than his first album and 'Have You Seen My Baby', 'Let's Burn Down the Cornfield', 'Mama Told Me Not To Come' and 'Suzanne' particularly shine.

1. Have You Seen My Baby? (Newman) - 2:32
2. Let's Burn Down the Cornfield (Newman) - 3:03

12. Uncle Bob's Midnight Blues (Newman) - 2:15

The Material Girl's 1998 return to pop after a four-year hiatus. Sonically, this the most adventurous Madonna record ever made. It is also the most mature and restrained album, which makes it extremely accessible.

The Healer was oddly a major mainstream breakthrough for John Lee Hooker. The album was one of the first to feature a wide array of guest stars, including Bonnie Raitt, Los Lobos and Carlos Santana. The album immediately captured widespread media attention because of all the superstar musicians involved in its production and has to date been John Lee's most successful release. Recorded in analog and mixed to 1/4" 15ips analog tape, the sound is better than almost any other Hooker recording. Transferred from the original 1/4" analog tapes by Bernie Grundman using Classic's "all tube" cutting system, gives this release a warmth and comfort it has never had. If you're a John Lee Hooker fan then this a must! Great sound and classic Hooker guitar and vocal performances.

MIKE OLDFIELD's TUBULAR BELLS: A quintessential "studio production" in pop music lore, Mike Oldfield conceived an eclectic mix of both standard and odd instruments, along with classical and rock elements, to achieve a steadily building, layered texture, totally unheard of at the time. After being shopped and rejected at other labels, Richard Branson chose it as the first release for his Virgin Records in 1972. Originally tagged with the working title Opus 1, Oldfield, who had been playing and recording professional since his teens, oversaw the entire production and played most of the parts himself, eventually layering over thirty different instruments and sounds. Listeners had fun trying to identify each and remember the order they appeared, as the late Vivian Stanshall (Bonzo Dog Band) ceremoniously announced each as it joined the mix. The original LP eventually sold over 16 million copies and topped the UK charts for weeks. The eerie opening section was famously featured in the soundtrack to the motion-picture The Exorcist, winning the Grammy in 1974 for Best Instrumental Composition. The original master tapes were used to cut both the original issue and this reissue making the original issue hard to best. With Chris Bellman doing the mastering honors using Classic's "all tube"� cutting system and being pressed on Classic's proprietary Super Vinyl Profile sheds new light on, and a slight nod to the Classic reissue of, this longstanding audiophile favorite.

On their fifth album originally released in 1977, ABBA demonstrated a new sense of ambition: longer tracks, more complex structures and lyrics that aspired to be more than just words that fit the melody.

In 1969, Blind Faith fused the psychedelic blues of Eric Clapton and the soundful vocals and keyboards of Steve Winwood with the superstar drumming of Ginger Baker and their self-titled, lone release is one of classic rock & roll's absolute masterpieces.

Live At The Apollo left no doubt in anyone's mind that James Brown was a live, dynamic performer without peers and that his talent could come across just as strongly on tape as in person.

Jimi Hendrix's mind blowing 1967 debut album, Are You Experienced, launched him as a major International star and it's widely regarded as one of the best albums in rock & roll history and perhaps the best debut of all time.

More than 30 years after the 1975 release of Elton John's landmark #1 album Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, Elton John and Bernie Taupin produced its autobiographical sequel entitled, The Captain & The Kid. The album chronicles not only the events of their lives and their dynamic relationship, but also touches on the fantastic records of the '60s and '70s when music was the voice of our culture and when the album was its prime vehicle. In typical Elton John fashion, the music stretches across multiple genres including pop, rock, blues, folk and country with his signature piano riffs throughout.

Van Morrison's unique blend of Irish mysticism, spiritual yearning, literary allusion and blue-eyed R&B can be as beautiful and deeply emotional as any music ever made and that's certainly the case on his 1971 release Tupelo Honey.

Gaucho, released in 1980, was Steely Dan's last until the release of Two Against Nature twenty years later.

Cat Stevens' highly regarded 1970 release, Tea for the Tillerman came only seven months after the start of his comeback with Mona Bone Jakon and its arrangements, performances and songs are all enveloped in a confident grace and beauty. Stevens was able to pull off a rare feat with Tea for the Tillerman in that he was able to achieve pop accessibility without having to sacrifice artistic relevance. The album is also noteworthy for having four of its songs "Where Do the Children Play?," "On the Road to Find Out," "Tea for the Tillerman" and "Miles from Nowhere" featured in Hal Ashby and Colin Higgins' 1971 black comedy Harold and Maude.

Eric Clapton's solo career truly caught fire on his 1974 release 461 Ocean Boulevard. The album is best remembered for his hit version of Bob Marley's "I Shot The Sheriff," but it's also an album on which emotions run high, especially on two Clapton originals, the prayerful "Give Me Strength" and the pleading "Let It Grow." Following a dark period of reclusiveness and a battle with drug addiction, 461 Ocean Boulevard was a powerful comeback for Clapton. Reissued here on Vinyl LP by Universal Records.
