Led Zeppelin was the master at studio albums. Every studio recording in their catalog rates high, and makes the band one of the greatest of all time. Live albums? If there is a place where Zeppelin did not exceed, this is the place. During their incredible run of a career from 1969-1979, the band released eight albums, all of them considered to be classics to this day, and rightfully so. Live albums? During their time together, there was one. The only other in concert recording of the band came out in 2003, the far superior How The West Was Won. This album, the soundtrack for the concert film of the same name, is the biggest disappointment in the Led Zeppelin catalog. Recorded three years prior to its release, this massive double album is overlong, overloaded and overbloated. The band sounds tired and almost bored, and the songs, after the first few, are way too long and drawn out. The sound is murky and dark, and even the order of the album does not match the film (this was corrected in the 2007 re release, which is a better album…and also a half hour longer).

There are some great instrumental moments, mostly provided by Jimmy Page, and while Robert Plant’s vocals are strong, he shows that he can be a bit of a detriment as a front man (“Does anyone remember LAUGHTER?”). Particularly, the long screeching staccato ending of “Dazed And Confused”, which runs an obscene 26 minutes. “Moby Dick” is 12 minutes of John Bonham playing a drum solo, which is 12 minutes too long, and why “No Quarter” and “Whole Lotta Love” have to be stretched beyond 10 minutes is beyond me. Not much here is worth much with the film to accompany it, and even less is worth hearing without it. Even the members of the band have always been indifferent to this album, and even though it was the coolest thing on the planet during the mid 70’s, there is now a respectable Zeppelin live album to replace it. Unless you have to have all things Zeppelin, this is not up to par with the rest of their catalog: get How The West Was Won instead.

1971-ATLANTIC
Produced by Arif Mardin

1. Illegal Smile
2. Spanish Pipedream
3. Hello In There
4. Sam Stone
5. Paradise
6. Pretty Good
7. Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore
8. Far From Me
9. Angel From Montgomery
10. Quiet Man
11. Donald And Lydia
12. Six O'Clock News
13. Flashback Blues

John Prine is one of America's most underrated songwriters period. This album, his debut, is loaded with classic songs. "Illegal Smile" became the pot smokers anthem. "Spanish Pipedream" (She was a level headed dancer/On the road to alcohol"). "Sam Stone" (There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes). And on and on. Most artists never get this many good songs in one career. Prine got them all in one shot. An absolute classic album.

3. Dimebag
4. Breakdown
5. Sister
6. When It All Goes Down
7. Final Curtain

This was one fine band. And no, they are nowhere near being from Canada. The name actually comes from the four original band members (Grady Cross, Cody Canada, Randy Ragsdale and original bassist Matt Weidermann). This band hails from Oklahoma, and they had a nice 15 year run as one of alt-country and southern rock’s better bands. Garage is the fifth of their seven albums, and it’s pretty much their best work. It’s also their most rocking album, featuring some terrific guitar work and songs that fall well outside of the usual fare for country music. It’s heavy yet tuneful, lyrical and lovely, and never snoozy. Cross Canadian Ragweed made some fine records during the first decade of the 2000’s before they split up in 2010, and none finer than 2005’s Garage, which was named because of their desire to capture the sound of a garage band.

It worked. This is a rock and roll record. It’s as rock as anything by Drive-By Truckers or Lynyrd Skynyrd. Count that as a victory. “Fightin’ For”, “Late Last Night”, and “This Time Around” are highlights…but the real keeper here is “Dimebag”, a tribute to Pantera guitarist Dimebag Darrell, who had been killed onstage a few months before. The album also features a Bo Diddley cover, and maybe the heaviest and coolest alt country track ever in “Lighthouse Keeper”, which features a Skynyrd like guitar finish. It’s absolutely glorious. CCR (now, where have I heard those letters together before?) had a wonderful career, and any of their albums are worth checking out. But Garage is the one you really want to have. Unsung alt-country heroes. At their ultimate rocking very best. You’ll be very happy with this one.

Super Fly 
Soundtrack
1972 – CURTOM
Produced By CURTIS MAYFIELD

1. Little Child Runnin’ Wild
2. Pusherman
3. Freddie’s Dead
4. Junkie Chase (Instrumental)
5. Give Me Your Love (Love Song)
6. Eddie You Should Know Better
7. No Thing On Me (Cocaine Song)
8. Think (Instrumental)
9. Superfly

As a producer and songwriter during his peak in the 1960’s and 70’s, Curtis Mayfield was matched only by the great Smokey Robinson…and Robinson was always reluctant to step into anything even mildly controversial. Mayfield, who began his career with The Impressions, was never afraid to air it all out, singing about racial issues, drugs, and violence. Superfly, the soundtrack to the 1972 blaxploitation film about a drug dealer, came on the heels of Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On album, and the two stand as the ultimate in concept soul albums about issues of the day. Because of the subject matter of the film he was writing for, Mayfield’s album is more immediate and in your face. It is also the pinnacle of Mayfield’s career. Superfly has nothing second rate on it anywhere, and is simply a genius work through and through…not only one of the greatest soul and funk albums of the 70’s, but also one of the best of all time.

While everything here is strong, there are two tracks that really stand out here. The title track (and closer) is a sly, funk driven track with punctuating horns that is immediate and perfect. The other track is “Freddie’s Dead”, a song about a character in the movie who is run over by a car. It is a great song driven by a perfect guitar riff and a wonderfully executed string arrangement. These tracks made Mayfield’s career, and those who were sold by them got to experience the rest of the greatness of Superfly. Mayfield remained prolific through the 70’s before slowing down in the 80’s. In 1990, a bank of stage lights fell on him, leaving him paralyzed from the neck down, effectively ending his career. He died in 1999, leaving behind a most impressive body of work…none of it greater than Superfly. This album is pure greatness, and you really should own it.

2001 – COLUMBIA
Produced By CAKE

1. Opera Singer
2. Meanwhile, Rick James…
3. Shadow Stabbing
4. Short Skirt / Long Jacket
5. Commissioning A Symphony In C
6. Arco Arena
7. Comfort Eagle
8. Long Line Of Cars
9. Love You Madly
10. Pretty Pink Ribbon
11. World Of Two

There are two things that once made Cake (or CAKE) a good and fun band. They rocked, and they had a sense of humor. Both of these things made Fashion Nugget a success. The lack of both of these things make Comfort Eagle more of a bore than anything. They do step up and make “Short Skirt / Long Jacket” a fine track, but beyond that, there’s not a whole lot to recommend this one. Singer John McCrea sounds bored, and seems to have forgotten his sense of melody much of the time. The charm of having a trumpet player in the band (Vince DiFiore) seems to have been lost as well, as his instrument is used more sparingly than ever.

More than anything else, though, the band sounds like they want this to be over already. Which works to your advantage, because maybe the best thing about Comfort Eagle is that it’s barely 35 minutes long. When inspired and on point, this is a fun band to listen to. When they are neither of those things, the result is a flat effort like Comfort Eagle. Even crafty song titles can’t save the tracks from being so so, and the singles “Arco Arena” and “Love You Madly” failed for good reason. If you like Cake, you should stick to the earlier stuff. Comfort Eagle has none of that magic, and it’s disappointing to hear a band that can have the energy that they have had in the past sound so flat and out of it.

2010 – OH BOY
Produced By AL BUNETTA

1. Spanish Pipedream
2. She Is My Everything
3. In Spite Of Ourselves (Feat. Iris Dement)
4. Long Monday
5. The Late John Garfield Blues (Feat. Sara Watkins)
6. The Bottomless Lake
7. Bear Creek Blues
8. Saddle In The Rain
9. Angel From Montgomery (Feat. Emmylou Harris)
10 Your Flag Decal Won’t Get You Into Heaven Anymore
11. Mexican Home (Feat. Josh Ritter)
12. Unwed Fathers (Feat. Iris Dement)
13. Glory Of True Love
14. Paradise (Feat. Kieran Kane, Kevin Welch & Fats Kaplin)

I would love to see John Prine in concert. So a live John Prine album is the next best thing. Live And In Person is the most recent of his three live albums, and it’s got some pretty special performances. Stripped down to just Prine, guitarist Jason Wilber and bassist Dave Jacques, this is the way you want to hear him, with his voice and his humor and his songs up front and personal. Oh, and with plenty of guest stars. Prine has always been great with duets, from back in the day when he and Bonnie Raitt recorded the definitive version of “Angel From Montgomery”. On this album, he’s joined on that song by Emmylou Harris, and it’s great. He’s also joined by Sara Watkins (“The Late John Garfield Blues”), Josh Ritter (“Mexican Home”), and best of all, he and Iris Dement give a classic reading of “In Spite Of Ourselves”.

He’s also joined by Kane, Welch & Kaplan on the finale, a wonderful version of “Paradise”. And his short snippets of story between songs are, as always, worthwhile. Even on record, Prine has a way of making you feel at home with him. A couple of the songs just don’t work…the opener, his classic “Spanish Pipedream”, is way too fast and a mess. And “Saddle In The Rain” feels forced and lacks the groove of the studio version. But you sure can forgive a couple of missteps for as good as the rest of this is. Prine was well into his sixties when this was made, and it sounds like he just doesn’t give a damn about that. What he does give adman about, clearly, is sharing his songs with you. And that is a fine, fine thing. Not sure exactly when or where this show was…the album notes don’t mention the time or place. But it feels like it’s right there in your own living room…and that’s what’s important.

1993 – MAVERICK
Produced By DAVID GAMSON, ANDRE BETTS, BOB POWER & ME’SHELL NDEGEOCELLO

1. Plantation Lullabies
2. I’m Diggin’ You (Like An Old Soul Record)
3. If That’s Your Boyfriend (He Wasn’t Last Night)
4. Shoot’n Up And Gett’n High
5. Dred Loc
6. Untitled

11. Picture Show
12. Sweet Love
13. Two Lonely Hearts (On The Subway)

Michelle Johnson changed her name to NdegeOcello, Swahili for free as a bird, and embarked on a life as a masterfully soulful and agonizingly misunderstood artist. A sultry singer and rapper, a gifted songwriter, and a monster bass player (she once tried out for Living Colour), she also has just enough of an eclectic personality that, with the exception of two early songs, has allowed her to survive for over two decades in the business without becoming a massive superstar. Plantation Lullabies is her debut album, and it showcases the many sides of NdegeOcello. She’s a bohemian, a somewhat militant feminist, politically savvy (none of which translates to huge popularity), and loaded with an amount of soul comparable to anyone on Motown in the 60’s. The results can be puzzling, but are mostly more than satisfying. When this album is at its best, it’s a huge breath of fresh air.

The hit here is “If That’s Your Boyfriend (He Wasn’t Last Night)”, and it’s a fine track (her other hit was, of all things, a duet with John Mellencamp on a cover of Van Morrison’s “Wild Night”). Other highlights include the perfectly titled “I’m Diggin’ You (Like An Old Soul Record)”, “Outside Your Door”, and “Call Me”. It has uneven moments, but it’s evident why this album sparked a movement towards this kind of soul music, and why she’s still held in such high regard. NdegeOcello has released ten albums since Plantation Lullabies, none of which has hit it big, which seems to suit her just fine. When she’s on, she’s loaded with cool and soul, things that we could all use a little bit more of in our lives. This is her best work, not perfect by any means, but it’s a portrait of a young soul singer finding her voice, different and unique as it may be.

Some of my favourite albums are here and also some that I think is garbage (come on: pump up the jam) but I suppose it's normal because it's your 900 to 1000 favorites. In any case congratulations for making the effort to construct such a fine top 1000
