Epic. essential recording:In 1976, when the Eagles, Peter Frampton, and Heart ruled the rock airwaves, along came five scruffy young men (the lead guitarist was maybe all of 18 and dressed in a schoolboy's uniform) from Australia playing some of the rowdiest, hardest, ...

Witness 'Whole Lotta Love,' a woozy epic based on one simple, head-banging-friendly guitar riff. Or the mock-dramatic 'Heartbreaker,' propelled by far ...

Editorial Product Review: :\N :Experience Hendrix brings together the major singles with a stack of majestic album tracks and the career-defining live Woodstock version of 'The Star Spangled Banner' on a fat 20-tracker. While best used as a sampler to direct new listeners to the immortal Are You Experienced, Electric Ladyland, and so on, the CD (which supplants the short-lived Ultimate Experience collection) does hang together as a listen. Its blend of Hendrix the rocker and Hendrix the underrated soul ...
Editorial Product Review: :No Description AvailableNo Track Information AvailableMedia Type: CDArtist: LED ZEPPELINTitle: LED ZEPPELINStreet Release Date: 06/21/1994DomesticGenre: ROCK/POP :As it turned out, Led Zeppelin's infamous 1969 debut album was indicative of the decade to come--one that, fittingly, this band helped define with its decadently exaggerated, bowdlerized blues-rock. In shrieker Robert Plant, ex-Yardbird Jimmy Page found a vocalist who could match his guitar pyrotechnics, and the band pounded out its music with swaggering ferocity and Richter-scale-worthy volume. Pumping up blues ...

Focusing on the concept of power and abuses thereof, this is a collection of complex, intelligent music, played at about a hundred miles an hour. Not that these are short songs; this eight-song ...
Editorial Product Review: :If it's your belief that one of the reasons today's rock is so bereft of personality is that all sense of show business has been drained from the music, then a look back at the career of Styx offers proof positive that it wasn't always thus. Greatest Hits offers a comprehensive overview of the band, from its art-rock days--which produced a top 10 hit in 'Lady,' a new version of which is included in this package--to its years ...

Editorial Product Review:Album Description:The follow-up to their Multi-Platinum Debut Featuring the hit single 'Call Me When You're Sober' :There's nothing like a breakup to focus your muse. This follow-up to the stunning, multi-platinum Fallen was penned as singer Amy Lee's troubled romance with bandmate Ben Moody was spiraling out of control, impelling her to craft an anxious record full of recriminations, revelation, and self-flagellation, as she questioned everything that kept her whole. It's a fascinating journey for the listener as ...
