aksman — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 09:55:27 GMT

“

The result was a fantastic debut appearance, and if the cult of Drake consistently reads more into his work than is perhaps deserved, Five Leaves Left is still a most successful effort.

aksman — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 08:45:04 GMT

“

And that’s the great thing about the Black Keys in general and Brothers in particular: the past and present intermingle so thoroughly that they blur, yet there’s no affect, just three hundred pounds of joy.

Johnny Winter - Second Winter [Friday Music 180g DoLP] "DM series" vinyl rip in 24-bit/96kHz & CD-format

aksman — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 19:57:01 GMT

“

Johnny's second Columbia album shows an artist in transition. He's still obviously a Texas bluesman, recording in the same trio format that he left Dallas with. But his music is moving toward the more rock & roll sounds he would go on to create.

aksman — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 08:38:40 GMT

“

... the record represents a moment in time, for sure -- Vangelis seems stuck between rock, pop, and epic scope -- but for the same reason it's an intriguing, engaging listen, particularly for completists.

Recorded at a Los Angeles performance from the Into the Labyrinth tour, the astounding Toward the Within shows that the band's magic was clearly not simply something created in studio.

“

More than any other Black Keys album, El Camino is an outright party, playing like a collection of 11 lost 45 singles, each one having a bigger beat or dirtier hook than the previous side.

Pink Floyd - The Wall (1979 [Japan LP 1st press] Definitive Master vinyl rip in 24-bit/96kHz & CD-format

aksman — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 09:45:46 GMT

“

Generally, the fully developed songs are among the finest of Pink Floyd's later work, but The Wall is primarily a triumph of production: its seamless surface, blending melodic fragments and sound effects, makes the musical shortcomings and questionable lyrics easy to ignore.

Ommadawn still stands as -- if not Mike Oldfield's greatest achievement (can anything displace Tubular Bells?), then at least his most visionary.
