1990 - Steppin' Out The Very Best Of Joe Jackson



1990 - Steppin' Out The Very Best Of Joe Jackson @320



Ever since Joe Jackson's debut album, Look Sharp, yielded his first single in "Is She Really Going Out With Him?" in July of 1979, which peaked at number 21 on Billboard (the album hit number 20), his career has seen him investigate a multitude of musical styles with clean-cut charm and poise. Jackson has dabbled in everything from reggae, disco, and soul to power pop, jazz, and even big band. Stepping Out covers 15 of his biggest singles, including his highest chart-topper, "Stepping Out," which hit number six on Billboard's Top 40, from the suave sounding Night and Day album. The downhearted appeal of "Breaking Us in Two" appears here as well, along with the salsa- flavored "You Can't Get What You Want (Till You Know What You Want)," which reached number 15 and was the strongest track from 1984's Body and Soul album. Outside of his chart appearances, the rest of this hits collection holds up well. Jackson's voice is heard in wispy detail on "Fools in Love," while his humor and wit explode on "I'm the Man" from the album of the same name. The live release entitled Big World from 1986 is spoken for with both "Right and Wrong" and the candid allure of "Hometown." This quick overview of Joe Jackson's most lucrative singles not only bookmarks each of his experiments in different musical varieties, but also proves that few artists can accomplish such a feat with unblemished dexterity.

John Lee Hooker - 1997 - Don't Look Back



John Lee Hooker - 1997 - Don't Look Back @320





With new John Lee Hooker songs, new versions of old Hooker songs, four duets with and a new song by Van Morrison, Don't Look Back continues the venerable bluesman's string of excellent albums in his '90s renaissance. Produced by Morrison, it also celebrates the 25th anniversary of their first recording together, as Morrison guested on Hooker's seminal Never Get Out of These Blues Alive in 1972. Don't Look Back hits the ground running with a rowdy, thumpin' remake of "Dimples" with Los Lobos; "Spellbound" pounds out more of Hooker's stylistic trademark -- throbbing, raw, hard-driving boogie. The Morrison tracks include the ruminative title cut and his haunting "The Healing Game." Hooker also gives Hendrix's classic blues "Red House" his own rough-hewn, distinctive treatment.(AllMusic)

Taken A Few Days Out


 

* Hi, sorry have taken a few days out, had a few things planned for Friday and Saturday in the real world, and have decided to chill out a bit today as well. I will return tomorrow (Monday) with some posts. Well there is lots of stuff on Vibes, maybe you have missed something!! Take a look.  Sometimes you just need to take a break, I am in the middle of some cleaning in my HD's. I take thing's and I already have, sometimes it's an upgrade on what I already have and sometimes it's not. Well I have a system that works well enough for me, but from time to time, I need to do a bit of housework in the HD's and clear, the lower bit rate version out and delete them. Having been busy this last week doing this, but yesterday, we were out all day. * 

* No idea what I will share tomorrow, but that's normal for me, LOL, just what takes my fancy on the day to be honest!! *

* Strange one, the vinyl has 10 tracks the CD has 12 and the version, I have has 16 tracks, the same 12 as on the back cover above from the CD version. I have no idea from where I got my copy from, at all, but it contains a John Session with 4 extra tracks from the CD version, I can't find my version on discogs? * 

* Ok did a bit of research on the Peel session added, it was recorded on the 18th October 1988 and broadcast on John Peel's show on the 24th October 1998. It was recorded in Studio 4 at the BBC studio's at Maida Vale and was engineered and produced by Mike Robinson *
