“In 1972 Bruce Johnston left The Beach Boys and two new members were added - Blondie Chaplin and Ricky Fataar. Their time in the band was short-lived, enough for these two albums plus the live album released in 1973, but their presence was felt. The "Carl and The Passions" name is simply to make The Beach Boys into a "new" band for this record. Sort of the way The Beatles "became" Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band in 1967 for that landmark album. But in this case all it did was confuse a mostly disinterested public. And that's too bad because there are some great songs on this little-heard album. “Holland,” on the other hand, remains one of the jewels of the Beach Boys’ post-Capitol Records catalog. There are lots of highlights here. "Sail On, Sailor" is the lead-off track and the most recognizable song on the album, but dig deeper and you'll be amazed at what the band members could accomplish when they put their minds to it. This CD reissue includes the six-song E.P. ("Mt. Vernon and Fairway") that was included with the album.”

“Exceptional debut by teen brothers fully engulfing themselves in punk rock and other unexpected genres. Guitarist-vocalist was 16 and the drummer was 12 when this was recorded. They are half Chinese and half Afro-Caribbean and based in Los Angeles. Ten of the 11 songs are self-penned. Not everything works, but when this duo connects with their inner punk gods, all is right with the world.”

EAC RIP | FLAC+CUE, LOG | Complete Booklet Scans @ 600 d.p.i. | 1 CD | 550Mb
Genre: Rock, Pop Rock

“"The Beach Boys In Concert" is a double album of excellent performances of old and new Beach Boys songs in front of enthusiastic crowds on the group's 1972 and 1973 tours. With drummer Dennis Wilson sidelined from his drum set with a broken hand he now freely roamed the stage with a microphone. The fragile peace of the Beach Boys all being in one room at the same time was thrown into chaos each night usually by mid-show. Dennis, often drunk or high, spent the majority of the concerts demanding that people sing along -- he would often thrust the microphone into the faces of people in the crowd. As the de facto frontman Mike Love found the unwelcome presence of this loose cannon irritating. Still, whatever drama was playing out on stage every night took a back seat to the one thing the Beach Boys had going for them: their golden song catalog. But that legacy was being tarnished by sloppy singing and playing and infighting amongst the group members on just how many old songs they could stand to play.”

EAC RIP | FLAC+CUE, LOG | Complete Booklet Scans @ 600 d.p.i. | 1 CD | 361Mb (Album) + 114Mb (CD Single)
Genre: Rock, Pop Rock

“Three of the four musicians who had created the soundtrack for the Rutles 1978 TV movie and album (Neil Innes, John Halsey and Ricky Fataar) reunited in 1996 and recorded a second album, "Archaeology," a send-up of "The Beatles Anthology" albums. The fourth 'real' Rutle, Ollie Halsall, died in Spain of a heroin overdose in 1992. Eric Idle was invited to participate, but declined. Like the "Anthology" project that it lampooned, it featured tracks ostensibly from all periods of the Rutles career, sequenced to reflect the fictional band's chronology. Includes the UK CD single "Shangri-La" with two bonus tracks.”

Badfinger - Magic Christian Music (1970)

Badfinger - Magic Christian Music (1970)
EAC RIP | FLAC+CUE, LOG | Scans @ 600 d.p.i. | 1 CD | 294Mb
Genre: Rock, Pop Rock

“Despite its title Badfinger’s “Magic Christian Music” is NOT the official soundtrack to the Peter Sellers/Ringo Starr film “The Magic Christian.” The actual soundtrack album for the film, which featured three new songs from Badfinger, had originally been scheduled for release on the Beatles’ record label, Apple Records, but the addition to the running order of the Thunderclap Newman song "Something in the Air" prevented that. Instead, the soundtrack was released on the little-known label Commonwealth United Records in the U.S. and on Pye in the U.K. As a result, it was largely unavailable to American record buyers. To capitalize on this gap, and the fast-selling "Come And Get It" single, Apple Records combined the three Badfinger movie songs (their Top 10 Paul McCartney penned hit "Come And Get It," "Carry On Till Tomorrow," and "Rock Of All Ages") with seven songs found on their debut album as The Iveys ("Maybe Tomorrow") and four previously unreleased songs to create a pseudo-soundtrack.”

George Harrison – Wonderwall Music (1968) [Japanese Pressing TOCP-67571]
EAC RIP | FLAC+CUE, LOG | Scans @ 600 d.p.i. | 1 CD | 318Mb
Genre: Soundtrack

“"Wonderwall Music" is George Harrison's first solo album and the soundtrack to the film “Wonderwall.” The songs are virtually all instrumental, except for some non-English vocals and a slowed-down spoken word track. The songs were recorded in December 1967 in England, and January 1968 in Bombay, India. Released November 1, 1968 in the UK and a day later in the U.S., “Wonderwall Music” is notable for being the first official solo album by one of the Beatles. It is also the first album released on the Beatles’ record label, Apple Records, predating the release of “The Beatles” (the double album commonly referred to as “The White Album”) by three weeks. Written, arranged and produced by George Harrison. Japanese CD pressing.”

Badfinger – The Very Best Of Badfinger (2000)
EAC RIP | FLAC+CUE, LOG | Complete Booklet Scans @ 600 d.p.i. | 1 CD | 455Mb
Genre: Rock, Pop Rock

“The tragic story of Badfinger is well documented. What lives on is their music. Over the decades EMI/Apple/Capitol and Warner Bros. have issued several “Best Of” compilations covering different periods of Badfinger’s career, but 2000’s “The Very Best Of Badfinger” from EMI/Apple/Capitol is the most appealing. The CD features most of the best Apple tracks with a few songs from their Warner Bros. years, ending with 1974’s “Wish You Were Here,” the last album recorded with Pete Ham. Yes, there are several noticeable omissions -- it's hard to justify the absence of “Flying” and “Apple Of My Eye”, but the hits are all present and accounted for. With complete booklet scans at 600 d.p.i.”

EAC RIP | FLAC+CUE, LOG | Scans | 5 CDs | 1.77Gb + 68.5Mb (scans)
Genre: Rock, Pop Rock

“Released in 1994, “Artifacts II” is the sequel to the ground-breaking Beatles rarities compilation issued the previous year by Italian bootleggers. Like its predecessor, “Artifacts II” is a sweeping 5-CD compilation of newly unearthed Beatles rarities presented in chronological order. It features outtakes, live concert tracks, demos, overdub sessions, and rehearsals covering the group's known recordings from 1960 through 1969 -- it's essentially a best-of the rest of the Beatles' unauthorized output, from what were then the best-known sources of every track represented. The "Artifacts" box sets were clearly the prototype for the authorized collection of Beatles outtakes (“The Beatles Anthology”) issued by EMI in 1995. The official Beatles vault releases have made much of what is found on the “Artifacts” boxes obsolete, however, there are some tracks found on the bootleg box sets that don’t appear on “Anthology,” making it a worthwhile addition to any Beatles collection. This is the second 5 CD box set in the series.
