OK Computer [2 LP] [Limited Edition]
:Album Description:180 Gram/Audiophile pressing Gatefold jacket/2 discs Printed sleeves :Radiohead's third album got compared to Pink Floyd a lot when it came out, and its slow drama and conceptual sweep certainly put it in that category. OK Computer, though, is a complicated and difficult record: an album about the way machines dehumanize people that's almost entirely un-electronic; an album by a British 'new wave of new wave' band that rejects speed and hooks in favor of languorous texture and morose details; a sad and humanist record whose central moment is Thom Yorke crooning ...

22 Dreams
: :''After As Is Now I thought the time was right to make the sort of record Iwanted to make,'' says Paul Weller of the creative process which ledto his striking ninth solo album 22 Dreams.

Mermaid Avenue Vol. II
: 's Best of 2000:Mermaid Avenue, Vol. II finds Billy Bragg & Wilco setting Woody Guthrie's words to their own music a second time. The result is more sonically diverse than the first installment, but just as rewarding. With guests Natalie Merchant and bluesman Corey Harris lending their voices to this new-century hootenanny, this 15-song disc manages to capture the collective spirit of both IWW and the WTO times. Woody would've been proud of the initial collection; he'd be prouder still of this one. --Steven Stolder Amazon.com:Who knew that after the undeniable, sometimes shimmering, ...

Essential Clash
: :The Essential Clash demonstrates once again how superior the Clash were to any of their punk peers. It's striking that, while the effects of the movement continue to resonate decades later, most '70s punk has dated badly. Even the great singles of the Sex Pistols, perhaps because they encapsulated the time so perfectly, do little more than remind one of 1977. But this fine 40-track double-disc collection demonstrates that the Clash's sound maintains its vitality, whether in the apocalyptic foreboding of 'London Calling' or the sulking 'I'm So Bored with the USA.' When ...

The Stone Roses
:Album Description:Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing. BMG. 2008. :Some albums really can change the world, and in 1989 this was one of them. The psychedlic dance extravaganza that was The Stone Roses ushered in the era of Madchester, baggy trousers, Kangols, and the Hacienda. From the magnificent protracted opening of 'I Wanna Be Adored' (where, for once, the arrogance wasn't overdone) to the dying seconds of 'Fools Gold,' every note was perfect. Jon Squire's guitarwork was a thing of magic, a new hero for ...
