Good Luck Charm - BOOTLEG
Artist: The Kinks

It's got no label or catalog number, and it ain't easy to find, but if you're a Kinks fanatic, you should try to get a hold of this. It has some rare BBC/live material from the mid- and late '60s, highlighted by the never-released R&B/rock original "All Aboard" and three songs from a 1967 Dave Davies solo broadcast (one of which, "Good Luck...

Sultans of Swing: The Very Best of Dire Straits
Artist: Dire Straits
Community Score: 9.25

Exactly ten years after Dire Straits' first compilation, Money for Nothing, appeared in the stores, their second, Sultans of Swing: The Very Best of Dire Straits, was released. Though a decade is a significant span of time, Dire Straits had released just two subsequent albums -- 1991's On Every Street and 1993's On the Night, a live album culled... Read More

The Globe Sessions
Artist: Sheryl Crow
Community Score: 7.07

Since her dense, varied, post-modernist eponymous second album illustrated that Sheryl Crow was no one-album wonder, she wasn't left with as much to prove the third time around. Having created an original variation on roots rock with Sheryl Crow, she was left with the dilemma of how to remain loyal to that sound without repeating herself on her... Read More

Artist: The Kinks
Acoustic Live
Artist: Nils Lofgren

Acoustic Live is a small treasure for longtime Nils Lofgren fans. Capturing Lofgren alone in front of an appreciative audience, knocking out such favorites as "You," "No Mercy" and "Keith Don't Go," plus six new songs. Even with the new songs, there are no real revelations, only a selection of little gems that will certainly bring a smile to the... Read More

Acetates and Alternates, Vol. 2
Artist: George Harrison

This latest bootleg from the All Things Must Pass sessions is superior to its earlier rivals, pulling together the best tracks from the four-disc Making of All Things Must Pass and adding some related treasures. The most important of the latter is George's superb demo of "It Don't Come Easy," although the 45 r.p.m. single mix of "My Sweet Lord"... Read More

Lennon Legend: The Very Best of John Lennon
Artist: John Lennon
Community Score: 8.33

Lennon Legend was released in the fall of 1997 in England to replace the deleted John Lennon Collection, and the 20-track collection is remarkably similar to its predecessor, replicating a full 16 tracks and deleting the relatively nonessential "I'm Losing You," "Dear Yoko," and "Move Over Ms. L" in favor of "Borrowed Time," "Mother," "Nobody...

Boxed
Artist: Graham Parker
Greatest Jukebox Hits
Artist: Elvis Presley
Community Score: 8.00

Appropriately, Greatest Jukebox Hits is a brief but entertaining selection of some of Elvis' biggest hits -- the songs that are frequently heard on the radio and jukeboxes across the land. There are no surprsies here, and while there are certainly a lot of hits missing, this isn't a collection designed for collectors -- only casual fans will... Read More
