Star Time 
Compilation
"The greatest single collection of JB, the greatest and most influential R&B artist in history, and the inventor of funk.

"Eurythmics debut was not released in the U.S. early in their career. This is an excellent post punk album which has a dreamy and psychedelic feel but with an edge to it. I think this would surprise a lot of people and this certainly deserves to be discovered."  Reply

"Dylan's soundtrack to Sam Peckinpah's, pat Garrett and the Billy the kid, in which Bob also featured in an acting role. The music, half of it is mellow acoustic instrumentals, and the other half, vocal tracks. Of the vocal tracks, the most famous is off course the classic, knockin' on heaven's do..."  [+]  Reply
