Perhaps second to only Freddie Mercury, Gary Glitter was the most flamboyant figure of the early '70s U.K. glam rock movement. With a bouffant hairdo, snazzy clothes, high platform boots, and hairy chest exposed, to the delight of his female fans, Glitter rocked his way to the top of the British charts, enjoying a string of big hit singles. This 32-tracks official compilation is a fine introduction to one of glam rock's leading artists. Every track is good/great/wonderful. You can't go wrong with such glam standards as "Rock & Roll Pt. 2", "Do You Wanna Touch Me", "Leader Of The Gang", "Doing Alright With the Boys", and "Oh Yes! You're Beautiful", which are all included here in their mascara-caked glory. This 2 CD set is the best Gary Glitter compilation on the market.

The Singles Plus is double disc collection of singles and more from BR Music (The Netherlands) for the world famous L.A.-based Doo Wop/R&B vocal group. 48 tracks & a full-color glossy booklet with track by track credits.

Law Of The Order was the major label debut for Shark Island, coming after the release of S'cool Buss, and was supposed to push the band into superstardom. However, even with killer tracks such as "Paris Calling", "Somebody's Falling" and "Spellbound" the album went largely unnoticed. Even great ballads like "Bad For Each Other" and "Why Should I Believe", as well as a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain", didn't help. It's really a mystery as to why Shark Island didn't make it big, cause Richard Black is an excellent singer with a good vocal range and sounded spectacular on this disc. The playing of the other band members is also tight throughout the album, and Shark Island was considered the next big thing to come out of Los Angeles. The band should have been huge, but it just was not to be--but Law Of The Order still receives two thumbs up!

So this is what it comes to in the 21st century music business. It’s where an artist like Gretchen Wilson comes out of nowhere, skyrockets to the top of the charts with her first single “Redneck Woman,” which becomes an anthem, sells millions and millions of copies of her debut album, Here for the Party, releases two more fine offerings....

Since they busted into the big leagues in 1999, Montgomery Gentry's five previous studio albums (and a greatest-hits collection) have all cracked the Country Top Ten. In addition, each album has been certified gold or platinum. Of the 20-plus singles they've released to date, 13 have landed in the Top Ten -- including the title track from 2008's Back When I Knew It All. It's a hell of a track record. Montgomery Gentry don't write much of their material, but they don't need to.....

Fusing traditional country with traditional rock & roll, the Mavericks became one of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful groups of the early '90s. Led by singer/songwriter Raul Malo (born August 7, 1965, Miami, FL), the band was formed in Florida in the late '80s. Malo had previously played in several different bands while he was in high school, as did bassist Robert Reynolds (born Robert Earl Reynolds, April 30, 1962, Kansas City, MO).
