The Call, one of the many forgotten bands from the 80's, were not the norm. Owing more to 70's punk than either New Wave or the metal flavor of the decade, The Call were led by Michael Been, a limited singer with more than enough passion to make up for his shortcomings. The band could rock, and put out a good bunch of excellent singles. "Let The Day Begin", "Everywhere I Go", and "The Walls Came Down" kept the band on the radio. The respect they got from the music industry was huge...guest musicians include Garth Hudson, Peter Gabriel, Bono, and Bruce Cockburn. There are lots of really good songs here, and The Call is a band that deserves to be revisited.

The band broke up in 1990. A better compilation exists...1991's The Walls Came Down: The Best Of The Mercury Years. But this is still worth having.

The original Best Of The Guess Who from 1971 is still the one to have. Other compilations cover later years (not the best idea), and include way too much filler. But this one, even with the three bonus tracks tacked onto the end, is still number one on the list. The period covered here is small (1968-70), and shows what a force this Canadian band was for a short time. Fronted by Burton Cummings and featuring the guitar work of Randy Bachmann, The Guess Who were one of the best singles bands of the time.

And the track list here bears that out. There aren’t a lot of bands who could boast a set like this. From “These Eyes” through “Hang On To Your Life”, recorded with Bachmann already gone, there isn’t a single weak moment, not a single bad track. The band soldiered on after this, eventually losing Cummings in the process before calling it quits in 1975. They got together (without Cummings) later in the 70’s and have continued on comparatively unnoticed…but the early days were magic. This is a perfect chronicle of that time, some of the best singles of the era.

I guess when you live in Minneapolis, your own band isn’t enough…you need an outlet to play covers and goof off on stage. That’s kind of how the supergroup Golden Smog got started. Members of bands like Soul Asylum, The Jayhawks and Run Westy Run hooked up with guys from Big Star and The Replacements to form a loose collective that touched down in Minnesota like tornados: you never knew what was next, or who would be in the band. Eventually, they started writing material for Golden Smog and recruited Jeff Tweedy from the ashes of Uncle tupelo, and they started making albums. You can only take this band so seriously, as they only take themselves so seriously. But, they did make some pretty great music, so there is definitely enough to take notice of here.

The Rykodisc Years is not really a very large period at all: in fact, it covers only two albums, Weird Tales and Down By The Old Mainstream. The best part of this collection is that you get the best songs from the two albums minus the filler, plus two previously unreleased tracks: a newer version of “Until You Came Along” and a pretty sweet cover of The Beach Boys “Love And Mercy”. If you have both albums, there’s really no need for this collection, but if not, it’s the perfect introduction to the band, and maybe all that you really need from them, as subsequent albums Blood On The Slacks and Another Fine Day don’t have material as good as what’s here, and the early EP On Golden Smog is all covers. A fun band regardless, with a load of talent. Just don’t take them too seriously.

2003- MCA
Produced By JANIE HENDRIX, JOHN MCDERMOTT & EDDIE KRAMER

1. Red House
2. Voodoo Chile
3. Come On (Let The Good Times Roll)
4. Georgia Blues
5. Country Blues
6. Hear My Train A Comin’
7. It’s Too Bad
8. My Friend
9. Blue Window
10. Midnight Lightning

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that the musical legacy of Jimi Hendrix expands far beyond they three Jimi Hendrix Experience albums, and that he was so much more than just a rock guitarist. Thankfully, the Hendrix estate has been very diligent in keeping his work in public view. And thankfully, the greatness of the man was not lost on Martin Scorsese, who, in 2003, created a fascinating and important PBS series called The Blues. Done in seven episodes, The Blues covers the entire history of the genre, from the early Delta blues players to the rockers who continue to breathe life into the blues. Hendrix came into play in episode number six, “Red White And Blues”, which covers a lot of the 60’s and 70’s blues revival among rock and roll players. Recorded between 1966 (“Red House”) and 1970 (“Midnight Lightning”), these ten studio tracks are all of exceptional quality, and showcase how powerfully Hendrix’ take on the blues really was. There is not a weak second on this album, loaded with some of the best players in music, and with, most importantly, one of the most gifted guitar voices in history.

The Experience is featured here, but so are Buddy Miles, Steve Winwood, Stephen Stills, Lonnie Youngblood, Jack Casady, Billy Cox…the list is long. The takes are legendary. The 15 minutes of “Voodoo Chile” are breathtaking, and Hendrix smokes everything in his path here. Of special note are two previously unreleased tracks (by 2003, you would have thought that all he did was out already). “Georgia Blues” includes saxophonist Youngblood, and is excellent. But the real prize is “Blue Window”, nearly 13 minutes of pure Hendrix heaven. The Hendrix estate releases music via Experience Hendrix, and has done an amazing job of trickling out amazing performances by the man who changed the electric guitar forever. This compilation is much better than you might think it should be, given that it was released 33 years after Hendrix’ death. It’s actually exceptional…one of the best Hendrix posthumous albums you’ll find. Heaven in an album.
