The Essential Marty Robbins: 1951-1982
: :Country's jack-of-all-trades, Marty Robbins handled so many musical styles so well. The common threads were his shivering, fragile tenor; an ability to tastefully emote; and of course, an uncanny knack for appealing to popular tastes. From his earliest heart-rending ballads to his Western sagas, rockabilly romps, countrypolitan crooning, standards, and even his kitschy pop, Robbins lent them all a grace and civility that was simply hard to resist because he never (well, rarely) confused accessibility with shallowness. Though best known for bringing the cowboy uptown, Robbins helped expand the parameters of ...

The Chess Box
:Album Description:Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing. Universal. 2008. :He's celebrated for the syncopated beat bearing his name that has spanned rock & roll's entire history. Unfortunately, his namesake also gets him mislabeled as a one-trick pony. This two-disc set does much to remedy the situation, tracking 1955 through 1968 and featuring all the hits. However, The Chess Box also displays Diddley's rock and blues versatility, from the reggae-ish (before there was reggae) 'Crackin' Up' and the Who's onstage hard-rock anthem 'Roadrunner' to ...

The Bootleg Series, Vols. 1-3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961-1991
: :Bob Dylan has always been incredibly prolific, only releasing a fraction of what he records. Such a policy has made him a prime target for bootleggers over the years, finally prompting this sanctioned 1991 triple-disc dive into the Dylan vaults. It consists of rare tracks, unreleased outtakes, early versions of classics ('Times They Are a-Changin',' 'Like a Rolling Stone,' 'I Shall Be Released'), and alternate versions that sometimes cut the originals ('Idiot Wind'). A measure of Dylan's depth is his list of discarded songs ('She's Your Lover Now,' 'Blind Willie McTell,' ...
