Editorial Product Review: :\N essential recording:Most critics complain Back in Black, the album AC/DC recorded after the death of their original lead screamer Bon Scott, is ridiculously juvenile, obvious, snickering, bludgeoning, derivative, single-minded about sex and booze, a big cartoon. All true, of course, and--on rock 'n' ragers like 'What Do You Do For Money Honey,' 'You Shook Me All Night Long,' and the title track--all great. As Scott's replacement Brian Johnson reminds us, loud and crunchy, no-holds-barred ...

Editorial Product Review: :\N :If time is the true test, then Guns N' Roses' Greatest Hits confirms that they really were one of the greatest rock & roll bands in the world. While, in retrospect, fellow graduates of the class of 1987 are about as cool as poodle perms and spandex, the L.A. bad boys still rock like gods. Listening to the sun-drenched chords of 'Paradise City' and the ensuing stadium-sized swagger is enough to make wearing leather trousers ...

Editorial Product Review:Album Description:Japanese exclusive reissue of 1983 album packaged in a miniature LP sleeve features 10 tracks. CBS. 2003. :While not as timeless as Ride the Lightning or Master Puppets, Metallica's debut album--originally released in 1983--is still a fine piece of thrash metal, and as good a marker as any for the debut of the genre.
