This two-fer from the Australian Raven label is a part of a series of Delbert McClinton reissues. All of them come with new liner notes, session photos, and bonus tracks. These two albums, from 1980 and 1981, respectively, represent a renaissance for McClinton of sorts. While he never had a fallow period creatively, The Jealous Kind allowed him a renewed commercial viability even if it was short-lived. Both records were issued by the Muscle Shoals Sound imprint of Capitol Records and were produced by Barry Beckett with the Muscle Shoals rhythm section and horns. While the first disc is centered around diversity in its song choices – by everyone from Larry Henley to Bobby Charles to Van Morrison to Al Green to Jerry Williams – and took radical approaches to reinterpreting the material through soul, blues, funk, rock, and country, the latter chose hard-driving Southern-fried funk and R&B and a relatively close-to-the-vest approach in terms of material – most notably covers of "In the Midnight Hour" and Naomi Neville's "Lipstick Traces (On a Cigarette)".
Stereo version (original LP was available in Mono and Stereo).
Pink Floyd’s first UK Number 1 album, this was the band’s first recording with an orchestra. Title track, the Atom Heart Mother Suite, takes up a full side of the LP, while other tracks include If and Fat Old Sun. Gatefold sleeve.
Sound of My Heart is the fourth studio album by the German synthpop band Hubert Kah, and their second English language album, released in 1989. It was produced by Michael Cretu. Three singles were released from the album: "Welcome, Machine Gun", "So Many People" and "It's Me, Cathy (Follow My Heart)". The band's 1987 single "Military Drums" was also included as a track on the Japanese edition of Sound of My Heart. Shortly after the album's release, Hubert Kah split up due to Hubert Kemmler suffering from depression and health issues.
I was sooooooo overjoyed when I saw this album for sale –- "Concert in Rhythm, Volume 2" is okay, but what I had mostly been interested in was the rare out-of-print "Perfect '10' Classics" album… I'd been searching for it for YEARS (I'd needed to replace an old cassette tape of this album that I'd WORN OUT from listening to it so many times, LOL!!!), and it had never been available. I absolutely ADORE these rich-toned light-hearted "bouncy" arrangements of the popular light-classical melodies! Highly, HIGHLY recommended! - Amazon -
The Pretty Things' second album, Get the Picture? (released December 1965), has not only been remastered from original session tapes so the group sounds like their amps are practically right in your lap, but it's also been expanded to 18 songs with the addition of tracks cut for singles and EP releases from the same sessions. That's enough to recommend it even to casual fans – this is now a record that's just a few notches short of Rolling Stones level in the charisma department, and pretty tough any way you want to look at it.
Reminiscing back to the early to mid '60s we find several outstanding albums by Percy Faith ~ two of which have found their place on this double album CD ~ "More themes For Young Lovers/Latin Themes For Young Lovers" all with the "Percy Faith Touch" we have grown to love over the years. If it's strings you crave and a few of today's top hits in a lush instrumental version then this is the place. -Amazon-
