Demon Thor was one of the most sensational continental rock groups in the '70s, despite only a short existence: first German band on the legendary Musikladen TV show, first ever appearance at Circus Kronebau in Munich, music awards from France and England, worldwide release of the two LPs by United Artists. The group was a fusion of the Swiss rock scene between Tommy Fortmann and Krokodil, and the singers Geff Harrison, Peter Bischof, and Oliver Freytag. The CD contains tracks from the albums Anno 1972 and Written In The Sky, originally released in 1972 and 1973 respectively. The tracks were produced at Dierks Studios by Dieter Dierks.

While they never achieved the commercial success or cultural impact of the Wailers, Toots & the Maytals were nearly as important in the history of Jamaican music. Like the Wailers, the Maytals thrived as ska gave way to rocksteady and then evolved into reggae, they boasted one of the island's finest singers and most charismatic frontmen in the great Toots Hibbert, and they worked with many of the most important producers and sidemen on the island.

Increasingly, and especially in a day and age where music is so widely and readily available thanks to advanced technologies, when a company or act wants to make a good box set, it had better deliver. To its credit, Beggars Banquet did just that with Rare Cult, an astoundingly comprehensive and entertaining collection that packs in 90 tracks over the course of six discs…

A sometimes sensational compilation of Australian artists covering the Beatles. Beatlemania was most intense downunder and for the band's mid-sixties tour 350000 people greeted them at the Adelaide airport; (a third of the city's entire population). This collection starts with the biggest band to score a place, with a relatively small song - the Bee Gees doing a squeaky clean take on From Me To You. Gold chains and hairy chests are nowhere to be seen yet. Then the Seekers ease us into the album with a torch-song version of Yesterday which shows off Judith Durham's great voice. Followed by a role-call of groovy Oz talent including Masters Apprentices giving a bluesy, garage version of I Feel Fine and the Hoodoo Gurus doing a more recent run through of A Hard Day's Night. Their rendition stays true with a note-perfect guitar solo!

The Soul of Designer Records Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Chances are, you've never heard of Designer Records. One of many independent labels run on a little less than a shoestring in the '60s and '70s, Designer Records was one of the many imprints run by Style Wooten, a Memphis recordman who recruited new talent in classified ads in the back of local newspapers (this also happened to be how he found his wife). Wooten's rates ran low but he wasn't cheap. As long as the musicians had the cash, he took his time in the studio, coaxing the best possible performances out of his nonprofessional artists, which wasn't a particularly easy thing to do due to his own amateur status. He could play a little, but he left a lot of the actual recording up to Roland Janes, a former studio guitarist for Sun who had played with Billy Lee Riley and Jerry Lee Lewis before he departed to set up Sonic Studios in Memphis in 1962. Two years later, Style became a regular customer of Sonic, cutting a wide variety of artists – country, rockabilly, soul, rock & roll – and issuing them on a bewildering number of imprints, many of them named after cars.

Long-established as a hugely popular radio format, the Classic Rock sound was established – though not codified and canonised until some while later – in the Seventies, when numerous British bands from a pop or blues-based background pioneered a muscular, riff-based sound that dominated American FM airwaves and led the most successful practitioners to fame, fortune and all manner of related excess.

Si l’histoire du rock est jalonnée de succès, souvent similaires dans leur narration, celui de Stuck in the Sound est tout particulier. - - Ayant acquis dès ses débuts un nom sur la scène indie parisienne, le groupe de Montreuil gagne rapidement en renommée à travers les tournées qui accompagnent ses premiers albums (Nevermind the Living Dead en 2006,Shoegazing Kids en 2009 et Pursuiten 2012). Mais c’est lorsque le titre ‘Let’s Go’ explose en France et à l’étranger, révélant un intérêt formidable des publics nord et sud-américains, que l’histoire se fait mémorable. Et quelques 280 millions de streams plus tard, Stuck in the Sound revient pour nous livrer un sixième album, très attendu des deux côtés de l’Atlantique. - - Pour ce nouveau chapitre, le groupe a souhaité conserver son indépendance et s’affranchir de tous les impératifs artistiques, se refusant même à la facilité des formules qui ont fait sa réussite.
