Really energetic live recording from 1977! Recorded live a mere 10 days after the release of their seminal 3rd long player, Rocket To Russia, this classic radio broadcast captures New York's (and arguably the world's) greatest punk band at the pinnacle of their fast, loud, dumb powers. Everything you could hope for from a live Ramones set!
This CMH Records' release uses roots rock elements to masterfully honor the band, capturing a familiar misfit energy that would make each of the member proud. When you hear these rockin' rockabilly versions of songs like "Beat On The Brat", "I Wanna Be Sedated", and "The KKK Took My Baby Away", the only thing you'll be saying is Gabba Gabba Hey!
Sweet hit the peak of their powers on Desolation Boulevard, a wonderfully lightweight collection of fizzy melodies and big, dumb hooks. Essentially, the album consists of three dynamic singles buoyed by a bunch of filler, but those singles – "Ballroom Blitz," "The 6-Teens," and "Fox on the Run" – are addictive slices of bubblegum glam rock…
Almost Heaven is the tenth regular studio album by European-American pop group The Kelly Family. Based on a concept by Dan Kelly, it was co-produced by Kathy and Paddy Kelly and released in 1996 throughout most of Europe. Following the major success of previous albums Over the Hump and Christmas for All and the number-one single "I Can't Help Myself," the album debuted number-one in Austria, Germany and Switzerland. It also entered the top 5 in the Netherlands and Norway and made it to the top 20 in Belgium. Almost Heaven eventually sold more than three million copies worldwide, making it the band's second biggest-selling release to date.
