"Fantastic Rock & Roll"

This CD is truly what the title says. It's like someone went through the first dozen or so White Label LP's and pulled out the best rockabilly tunes…...The Lonesome Drifter was really a master at rockin' up a country rhythm as best heard on the stupendous Eager Boy and Teardrop Valley . Charlie Brown does much the same thing on his 4 tunes. The 2 Mickey Hawks and the Nighthawks' classics, Rock & Roll Rhythm and Bip Bop Boom , are always welcome to the party, and Be Bop Battlin' Ball by Eddie Gaines creates enough commotion to single to singlehandedly start a party. Rock & Roll On A Saturday Night by Dwain Bell, Big Sandy by Joe Griffith and Wait A Little Baby by Jimmy Roby are just 3 more topflight rockers on this generous 25 tracker. Highly recommended.

Mott The Hoople - Mott (1973, Legacy Bonus Tracks Remaster 2006) (PT. 1)

Legacy's remastered and reissued edition of Mott the Hoople's most successful album is presented wonderfully and respectfully -- not even the hyper-critical Ian Hunter can really complain about the way the label treated it. Historically, Mott the Hoople enjoyed chart success with All the Young Dudes, both the album and the single. The collaboration with David Bowie worked like a charm and brought the Mott magic to the studio for the first time. They had moved to Columbia Records from Island (in the U.K. -- their albums in the States had been released by Atlantic). Mott had also signed with Bowie's manager Tony Defries. However, trouble loomed once again for a band that had seen more than their fair share of it . Defries' attention was occupied with Bowie's rising star and he had little time for the band. Terminating that contract, they also lost Verden Allen, the keyboardist who was so much a part of the sound on All the Young Dudes; he was a bedrock of their sound. He left because he felt his own songs weren't a big enough part of the Mott mix. The band decided not to replace him. They also decided to produce their next album themselves, against the wishes of the label. The album was titled, simply, Mott. Engineers like Bill Price, Alan Harris, and a very young John Leckie were important collaborators. The album itself struck pay dirt and was hailed as the best album the band ever released. This is an amazing thing given that a huge chunk of it is dedicated to lamenting the corruption and frustration of the music biz. Arranged by Ian Hunter who wrote or co-wrote everything on the set except Mick Ralphs' "I'm a Cadillac/El Camino Dolo Roso," the album contains many of Mott's best-loved songs including "All the Way from Memphis," "Whizz Kid," "Honaloochie Boogie," and of course, the classic "I Wish I Was Your Mother." Rolling Stone called the record "the best record by the best band of the early seventies." OK. That's easy to buy given the group's live shows, which rivaled anyone's, including Bowie's and the Rolling Stones'. Mott is an album that endures because of Ian Hunter's songwriting and a production that was immediate, adventurous, full of the sensationalism of glam from a band that wasn't, and saturated in roots rock energy and grit. The use of a chorus of female backing vocalists, Andy Mackay (from Roxy Music) on saxophone, and the leaner, meaner, four-piece attack presented Mott the Hoople in all its glory, presented Hunter as a songwriter who needed to be taken very seriously.

Mott The Hoople - Mott (1973, Legacy Bonus Tracks Remaster 2006)

The album cracked the U.S. Top 40 (number 35), and hit the U.K.'s Top Ten (number seven at its peak). The Legacy reissue contains four bonus cuts, too -- even though it's a tough to follow an act like "I Wish I Was Your Mother," which closes Mott. First is "Rose," the rare B-side of the "Honaloochie Boogie" single. Then there's a demo of the tune, that's rough, rowdy, and edgy. Ironically there is also a demo of Verden Allen's "Nightmare" written in 1972 that never made it onto an album. Finally, "Drivin' Sister," from the famed Hammersmith Odeon gig in 1972 on the All the Young Dudes tour, with some additional musicians in the mix including Morgan Fisher, Paul Buckmaster, and Andy Mackay. The bonus material showcases different sides of a band who had arrived, fully in command of their sound and performance. In addition to the great sound and bonus material, there are good historical and critical notes from Keith Smith, the editor of Two Miles From Heaven, the official organ of the Mott the Hoople Appreciation Society. Like All the Young Dudes, any fan will need this, but more importantly, anyone interested in the music of the early to mid-'70s will find Mott a treasure that can still hold its own over 30 years after its original release. It still sounds fresh, rough, and gritty, and is full of outrage and fantastic musical theater. (Thom Jurek, Allmusic)

Dana Valery - Dana (1964, Mono LP) Not The Flower But The Root (Brunswick Stereo 1972) Dana Valery (Stereo LP 1975)

Not The Flower But The Root (Brunswick Stereo 1972): This is the CD debut of any of Dana Valery's albums. The only album that she recorded for the primarily soul music label, Brunswick, this is a very welcome CD to finally have issued. Dana Valery has a multi-faceted career, and this 1972 album NOT THE FLOWER BUT THE ROOT, was her first album in the US that followed a decade of album releases abroad & single releases in the US. By the time this blue-eyed soul album was released on the Chicago based soul label, Brunswick Records in 1972, Dana was a seasoned singer and entertainer. One of the things that is stunning about this album is that it was recorded with many of the original instrumental tracks used for the hits by the big name Brunswick stable of artists. The album opens with HIGHER AND HIGHER, and it utilizes the exact same track of the 1967 Jackie Wilson smash. It's fascinatingly good , and Dana's vocals are a mix of soul, pop and cabaret with a somewhat international accent . The whole album is filled with just that , and it's nothing but a pleasure to hear. Songs like YOU BABE, THIS LOVE IS REAL, FOLLOWING YOU and LOVE IS FUNNY THAT WAY are all stand-out hybrids with the use of brass to accentuate both the soul & the cabaret type feel of Dana's vocals. It gets even funkier on THE FOUNTAIN , with wah-wah guitars and female backing vocals right up front with Valery. It reaches the funk zenith with Dana's version of Barbara Acklin's LADY LADY LADY , which is a groovy gas to hear. As with HIGHER AND HIGHER, the original backing tracks of The Chi-Lites hits HAVE YOU SEEN HER and OH GIRL are used to accompany Dana's vocals, here re-titled HAVE YOU SEEN HIM and OH BOY. As familiar as both these songs are, these versions are fresh to hear, and Dana's spoken interlude on HAVE YOU SEEN HIM highlights her unique international accent. Two more songs written by Eugene Record of The Chi-Lites are the driving THE FOUNTAIN and a fantastic version of another hit of The Chi-Lites I'M GONNA PAY YOU BACK.

This CD reissue is part of the large Brunswick label catalog to be released on CD in Japan. The sound quality is fantastic, very clear. It is in stereo. The original 10 track album is here, with just one bonus track, I'M A WOMAN NOW, which is in Mono. Faithful reproduction of the front and back covers are included. But the liner notes are written in Japanese, which is a real detriment. Usually with CD reissues from Japan , they include the song lyrics in English, which are here, but not the liner notes. That makes no sense at all. With this album so short on playing time, it's a loss for the listener that they failed to include Dana's other non-LP singles on Brunswick - PORTOFINO and YOU ON MY MIND. At the high price of Japanese import CD's, not including these extra songs is a missed opportunity. I'll have to continue to play my used 45 record to hear those songs. Another track missing is her Italian version of KILLING ME SOFTLY WITH HIS SONG, which was only on the LP released in Italy.

Dana Valery - Dana (1964, Mono LP) Not The Flower But The Root (Brunswick Stereo 1972) Dana Valery (Stereo LP 1975)

This is a wonderful, unique album. A soul label recording a white singer who had a varied career of album and single releases, as well as TV and stage performances. Dana was born in Italy, but moved with her family to South Africa when she was a teenager. She recorded for Columbia Records and several albums containing both English and Italian recordings were released. In the UK , Decca released several on singles. Dana also appeared in the South African originated musical WAIT A MINIM in London and New York. By 1967, Columbia Records in the US was finally releasing some of Dana's singles. Her version of Paul Simon's YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR INTEREST LIES has become a bonafide soul classic in the UK, where it sells for loads of money. She also is well-known for her TV appearances on talk shows as well as on What's My Line and To Tell The Truth. She also is the sister to singer and actor Sergio Franchi, now deceased. In 1975 she recorded the DANA VALERY album with Leslie West of the band MOUNTAIN producing . She also appears on his 1975 album THE GREAT FATSBY with guest vocals on several songs.

This album stands the test of time. A great female vocalist recorded with real musicians. It blends a number of genres together, and stands up to many of the era's biggest hits . Definitely worth a hear. Some of these songs have been released on CD on Chicago soul compilations. Now that this excellent album has been reissued, hopefully other labels will start to reissue more music by Dana Valery. A CD containing her Columbia recordings would be a very welcome. With her version of Paul Simon's YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR INTEREST LIES being such a valued 45 that also commands extremely high prices, a record company would be very wise to release that song and her many other Columbia recordings at last on another CD. (Dusty Groove)

Dana Valery (Stereo LP 1975): Dana Valery's Rock Classic, Produced by Leslie West. This 1975 album by Female Vocalist DANA VALERY is a very underrated, must be heard classic. Italian-born Dana had been singing for well over a decade , cutting her first records in , of all places, South Africa. There she recorded for Columbia, and had several 45's released in the US also, including her soulful version of Paul Simon's YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR INTEREST LIES. She also had played on the stage, made TV appearances and cut other singles as well. She also is the sister to the late singer SERGIO FRANCHI. Her first US album was in 1972 with the Soul label, Brunswick, NOT THE FLOWER BUT THE ROOT. In 1975, she worked with ex-Mountain guitarist/vocalist/songwriter LESLIE WEST on his album, THE GREAT FATSBY, and also on this, her self-titled 2nd album. Both Dana's and West's albums may have been been recorded simultaneously, as both came out in 1975, have the same musicians playing on both albums and were released on PHANTOM RECORDS.

DANA VALERY is a great album of both rock, and some rock ballads. She's got an excellent voice that can sing out with power, or softer with restraint. Her version of the LOBO hit I'D LOVE YOU TO WANT ME is a perfect song for her, with acoustic guitars that build up as her voice carries the song to new heights. Neil Sedaka's SOLITAIRE is also in the same vein, another great take that stands apart from other versions. Biggest surprise is her version of The Rolling Stones' PLAY WITH FIRE. The production is a mix of powerful lead & background vocals, guitars and an atmospheric production. Sort of conjures up mysticism, and expands the short Stones version into a longer rock jam. LESLIE WEST surrounds Dana with production and playing that does n

The Cowsills - The Cowsills (1967, Expanded 2009)

The Cowsills possessed one of the most pleasing vocal blends in all of popular music. In addition, they created--without proper credit--the blueprint for countless other singing family bands, including, the TV-created Partridge Family, who were actually based on The Cowsills. Released in 1967, The Cowsills' self-titled eponymous album was the perfect long-playing launch pad, blending soft pop buoyancy with psych pop excursions and sunshine pop sensibilities. The thread that tied these elements together was their undeniable vocal dexterity. This first-ever legitimate CD issue of THE COWSILLS -from the ORIGINAL MONO MASTER - includes the Top 10 hit 'The Rain, The Park And Other Things.' Also included are EIGHT bonus tracks, including most of the material that comprised THE COWSILLS PLUS THE LINCOLN PARK ZOO album. All sourced from ORIGINAL MASTERS. The full-colour booklet also includes rare, unpublished photos and extensive liner notes that feature the participation of original band members.
