Hot Rods & Custom Classics
: :Here's an educated guess that road tapes are the second most popular type of homemade mix cassette. (One suspects that old off-road standard--the bedroom mix--would clock in at No. 1.) Hot Rods & Custom Classics is Rhino Records' big daddy of road mixes: four discs housed in an elaborate box that includes a scrupulously assembled 66-page booklet, a catalog of hot-rod accessories, a strip of decals, and even a set of fuzzy dice for your own resto rod. Musically, this collection is all over the road, ranging from selections that seem like they ...

Jefferson Airplane Loves You
:Album Details:Triple Box of all the Hits and More. :It's hard to remember in light of the monstrosities that were the various incarnations of Starship, but there was a period during the late '60s when the Jefferson Airplane was one of American rock's finest groups. Indeed, no one, including San Francisco fellow travelers the Grateful Dead, better captured the psychedelic hippie-dippy revolutionary spirit of the day. This three-CD box set presents all the material from those glory days. Unfortunately, even though the band made great records, it wasn't always the best live group ...

Mos' Scocious : The Dr. John Anthology
: :New Orleans' burgeoning '50s R&B scene was the crucible for Mac Rebennack, an in-demand session guitarist in his teens, but he was sidelined by a gunshot wound to his left hand. He learned organ, then blossomed as a gifted pianist in a city renowned for brilliant, idiosyncratic players, and Mac soaked up the tradition. A move to Los Angeles and a trippy side project under the nom du disque of Dr. John, the Night Tripper, clinched his fate, giving American music one of its most ebullient, reliably musical originals. It's his gravelly, juicy ...
