Rock ‘n’ Roll at 50: A Galaxy of Hits from Rock’s First Decade We should all look so good at fifty.
Rock n Roll at 50: A Galaxy of Hits From Rock s First Decade is a three-disc companion to the PBS special airing nationwide beginning in December 2003. The special was produced in cooperation with WQED/Pittsburgh by the same team that created the famed Doo Wop 50 special (the #1 PBS fundraiser of all time). This new box set contains sixty chartbusting hits, from the genesis of rock in the mid-Fifties, through doo-wop, surf music, Motown, Brill Building pop and the British Invasion.
The track list is a Who s Who of rock: Elvis Presley, The Beach Boys, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, The Supremes, Roy Orbison and many, many more.
With the PBS special airing throughout the holiday season, Rock n Roll at 50 makes a perfect gift item for the last-minute shopper!
Includes a 40-page booklet–chock-full of photos and track-by-track liner notes–and attractive digibook-style packaging. Every track was a Top 40 hit, and most were Top 10!
Customer Review: A First-Rate Collection from Rock ‘n’ Roll’s Golden Era
What’s not to like? This sixty-song companion to the PBS documentary is an astonishing testament to rock ‘n’ roll’s golden era. Nearly half of the artists represented here (26 by my count) have been inducted into the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame. Beginning with Bill Haley’s 1954 hit “Shake Rattle and Roll,” these three CDs provide a crash course in everything from doo wop to soul to the British Invasion.
Prokofiev: The Symphonies

Prokofiev: The Symphonies Customer Review: Idiomatic Prokoviev!
The captivating conveyance of this outstanding conductor elevates the rank of the performances, the London Symphony and the London Philharmonic are by definition, two superb ensembles. It is not easy to obtain so rewarding works, because Mr. Ozawa simply is out of comparing. The musical stature of Walter Weller has not appreciated yet in his fair dimension, by unknown reasons. He is beloved widely in England but unexplainably in the rest of the world.
Diana Ross Live - The Lady Sings… Jazz & Blues (Stolen Moments)

Diana Ross Live - The Lady Sings… Jazz & Blues (Stolen Moments) Customer Review: A Spectacular Show From The “Female Entertainer of the Century”
This concert was truly a pay-per-view spectacular when it aired on December 4, 1992, from the Ritz Theatre (NYC), as Diana Ross performed jazz standards while backed by an all-star lineup.
With a number of the songs associated with Billie Holiday, Ross is essentially recreating live her incredible 1972 movie soundtrack, Lady Sings the Blues. The musicians - including Ron Carter, Jon Faddis and Roy Hargrove - propel the songs to incredible heights.
Blues Masters, Vol. 8: Mississippi Delta Blues

Blues Masters, Vol. 8: Mississippi Delta Blues Customer Review: ****1/2 - one of the best in the series
Not five straight stars, though…partly because the authentic Mississippi Delta stuff is interspersed with much more urban sounds from B.B. King and Albert King. And (very) electric Chicago-sides by Howlin’ Wolf, Elmore James, and Robert Nighthawk do much to blur the distinctiveness of this package.

Stone Country: Country Artists Perform the Songs of the Rolling Stones
March 11th, 2010
Stone Country: Country Artists Perform the Songs of the Rolling Stones Customer Review: Recommendable
Fine Rolling Stones tribute album. Various country bands play well known Stones songs. Most I like “Honky Tonk Women” by Travis Tritt, “Paint It Black” by Tracy Lawrence, “The Last Time” by The Tractors, “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” by Rodney Crowell and “Brown Sugar” by Collin Raye.
Customer Review: Fun and Forgettable
I love the Rolling Stones, and I have long been amused by their reverance for American country music. I’d like to have a CD of Stones tunes in which the country element shines through, such as “Virginia” and “Honky Tonk Women” and “Country Honk.”
Hip Hop Elements, Vol. 1
March 11th, 2010
Hip Hop Elements, Vol. 1 This DVD takes you live to the annual Pro Am competition in South Beach, Miami where B-Boys and Girls from all over the world compete to be crowned the best. Live footage of beatbox battles, MC battles and old school DJ competitions bring back memories of KRS-One, Grandmaster Flash and Kool G Rap. The B-Boy contest features classic styles such as Poppin’, Lockin’ and crew competitions. This is the true, underground B-Boy DVD.
Destroy Rock & Roll
March 11th, 2010
Destroy Rock & Roll With influences ranging from Prince (’Guilty Of Love’) through to Daft Punk (’Ottos Journey’) and even Scissor Sisters (’Musclecar Reform Reprise’), it’s little wonder that The Face described him as ‘Scotland’s answer to Royksopp’. By refusing to adhere to any one musical style, Mylo may well become one of the most misunderstood artists of his generation, yet despite this, expect this totally absorbing debut to make its mark on the end of year ‘best of’ listings. Breastfed. 2004.
Customer Review: Pure Electro bliss
Mylo has put out one of the best electronic albums to arrive on the scene in years. Destroy Rock & Roll combines nearly every electronic sub-genre imaginable and does so flawlessly. Here’s a track-by track-review:
