Jesus of Cool
: :2008 marks the 30th anniversary of Nick Lowe's seminal 1978 album Jesus of Cool. The album, released in the U.S. as Pure Pop for Now People, marks the beginning of one of the most storied and influential solo careers in pop music and marks the true emergence of a songwriting monolith. The album is a literal compendium of 25 years of pop music history. Here, the sweet melodies of pre-Beatles pop, the energy of the British Invasion, the excess of glam and elements of ska and new wave don t ...

Disc One: All Their Greatest Hits 1991-2001
: :Electrifying performers and pure-pop songwriters of the highest order, Toronto's Barenaked Ladies have emerged over a decade as that strangest of beasts. They'll never land a dishy cover story in Mojo Magazine, but as they reflect on those ribald years between 1991 and 2001, the five can allow themselves wry smiles, knowing that sometimes, just sometimes, the cream rises to the top. In addition to familiar radio staples such as 'Pinch Me,' 'The Old Apartment,' 'Jane,' 'Alternative Girlfriend,' and the ubiquitous 'One Week,' there's a trump card on All Their Greatest ...

#1 Record/Radio City
: :A two-for-one combo of the first two Big Star albums (they only recorded three). Heard side by side, #1 Record and Radio City only add further testament to Big Star's seminal greatness. On the first album, Chris Bell and Alex Chilton share songwriting credit, though each brings a remarkably different sensibility to the band: Bell creates pure pop nuggets ('Feel') while Chilton swaggers with reckless melancholy ('Ballad of El Goodo,' 'Thirteen.'). After Bell's departure, Chilton took control of the helm for Radio City, and what a ride it is. While not ...

The Very Best of Todd Rundgren
: :A good, inexpensive single-disc compilation of Rundgren singles may not be what the world's been waiting for, but it's a fine thing nonetheless. Largely avoiding the big pretensions of many of his post-Something/Anything? albums, this record distills 15 years of releases into a hits-just-keep-on-coming set which makes sense of the sensibility that produced the bemusedly soulful 'Hello It's Me,' the straightforwardly sweet 'Dream Goes On Forever,' and the outright goofy 'Bang the Drum All Day.' --Rickey Wright

Cheap Trick At Budokan: The Complete Concert
: essential recording:Originally released as a 10-track live album in the late 1970s when live albums were all the rage, At Budokan neatly summed up this oddball power-pop/hard rock band with the added ferocity a live show brings. Tracks such as 'Hello There,' 'Surrender,' 'I Want You to Want Me,' and Fats Domino's 'Ain't That a Shame' were infused with a power their studio versions only hint at. Twenty years after the original concert in April 1978, the classic live album has been expanded to include nine additional tracks that make ...
