Brent Spiner - Ol Yellow Eyes Is Back (1991)









VBR Get It

Found this whilst in space, it's quite "intriguing".
Variable BitRate 220 average
Thanks to original ripper

Ol' Yellow Eyes Is Back is a 1991 album by Brent Spiner, best known for his role as Data in the American television series Star Trek: The Next Generation.
The title is a parodic reference both to Frank Sinatra's Ol' Blue Eyes Is Back and the Data character, whose eyes are indeed a golden yellow.
On the album, Spiner is backed by the orchestra from that series as he sings a number of old pop standards, mostly from the 1930s and 1940s.

Another Christmas gem found on the Interweb for you holiday enjoyment,
Taken from a lossless source and converted to mp3 (Lame) at 192 bitrate,
Many Thanks to the original ripper.

The only bad thing about this CD is that it only has 12 tracks ;-)This CD is a MUST for every Beatles fan.
Tired of hearing the old Christmas tunes the same way every year? Get this CD.
The "Rubber Band" managed to arrange and play Christmas songs using the real "Beatles sound" and instrumentation.
The casual listener will immediately think that's the real Beatles.

Rubber band is a Danish Beatles cover band,They started in 1979, when it was still considered blasphemous to copy The Beatles, and their music.
Despite this opinion, that was held by most of the general public, Rubber Band continued to rehearse with dedication, until their first public performance as “Billerne”. (They later changed their name to Rubber Band, inspired by The Beatles LP “Rubber Soul”).

Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Xmas (1996)










192 Get It

Christmas Gem i found in Cyberspace,
transferred from lossless to 192 bitrate by me (enjoy)
Thanks to original ripper

Don't take the title of Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Christmas too literally. Though there are a number of new wave artists here — XTC, Squeeze and the Pretenders among them — the album actually plays like an alternative rock collection, reaching back to the notorious David Bowie & Bing Crosby duet on "Little Drummer Boy" to the Pogues and Throwing Muses.
Of course, that complaint isn't a serious one — the music on Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Christmas is entertaining and several tracks are genuine alternative rock classics.
More importantly, most of the material on the disc is very rare, so the album functions as a convient way to gather an abundence of offbeat new wave and alternative tracks.
The record doesn't really gel into a cohesive listening experience, but as a grab-bag sampler, it's fun. by Stephen Thomas Erlewine (allmusic.com)

1. The Three Wise Men (Aka XTC) - Thanks For Christmas

Heart - Greatest Hits (1998)












192 Get It --
Part 1 Extra Mirrors Badongo or MU

Part 2 Extra Mirror MU


Heart had a pair of greatest-hits collections to their credit by 1997, but both did not contain all the renowned studio versions of their classic hits from the '70s (both 1980's Heart Greatest Hits: Live on Epic and 1997's Greatest Hits on Capitol contained half studio and half live material).
1998's Greatest Hits on Epic/Legacy finally corrected this once and for all —collecting all of Heart's '70s studio hits on a single disc.
Nearly all of the songs have become classic rock staples, the best-known being the Zep-esque rockers "Crazy on You," "Barracuda," and "Magic Man," while the more subdued acoustic material ("Dreamboat Annie," "Love Alive," "Dog & Butterfly") showcases the immense talents of vocalist Ann Wilson.
Other notables include "Kick It Out," "Heartless," "Bebe le Strange," "Straight
On," and "Even It Up," while an all-new studio cut recorded in 1998 ("Strong,
Strong Wind") and a live cover of Led Zeppelin's "Rock and Roll" from 1980 are
included as bonuses.
While Heart may have enjoyed their biggest commercial success in the '80s with pop-oriented material, their more straight-ahead '70s work, showcased on
Greatest Hits, has stood the test of time incredibly well.

Blue Oyster Cult - On Flame With Rock And Roll (1990)









192 Get It .. More Mirrors RS..MU..ZShare


CBS (now Sony) Special Products' second discount-priced Blue Öyster Cult compilation improves upon its first, (Don't Fear) the Reaper, by including not only that album's title track, which was BÖC's biggest hit, but also "Burnin' for You," and its only other Top 40 entry.
The other six tracks are good choices from the catalog, among them "Transmaniacon MC" and "Cities on Flame with Rock & Roll" from the debut album, concert favorite "Godzilla," and BÖC's cover of the MC5's "Kick Out the Jams."
Add another half-dozen tracks, and you'd have the ideal one-disc compilation of Blue Öyster Cult, but at eight tracks, what you have is a bare-bones collection that nevertheless is the best BÖC greatest hits album available.
In fact, we would make it the "pick" BÖC record if it really were easily available — Special Products releases tend to turn up more in discount bins in convenience stores than in record stores, so there's no guarantee you'll be able to find this release.

Meco - Star Wars and Other Galactic Funk (1977) (1999 CD)









320 Get It

Found on the Interwebs - Artwork included
Files are just like i found them..encoded at 320 Kbps

As a purist, Meco's Star Wars and Other Galactic Funk should be heard on its original vinyl, even if that means losing the two bonus tracks on the Hip-O CD, the "Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band (7" Radio Edit)" and the "Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band (12" Disco Mix)."
This is not the music most people would listen to every day, so why not enjoy the experience. The LP's cover is large, and the two space travelers bumping bottoms is hilarious cheese.
Musically, the LP and the CD are identical (with the exception of the bonus material).

An interesting trivia bit is that John Williams supposedly did not know anything about disco when he returned from London.
When he was asked to listen to Meco's version of his now famous recording, Williams was apprehensive.
But, in the end, he credited Meco with helping bring symphonic music further into the mainstream.
This important genre-busting album is most enjoyable in its original form.
The "Title Theme" was a number one hit in 1977.
Star Wars and Other Galactic Funk makes one of the best kids albums out there. (JT Griffith allmusic.com)

Theory Of A Deadman - Gasoline (2005)









192 Get It



Chad Kroeger isn't as close to Gasoline as he was Theory of a Deadman's 2002 debut, which he co-produced and helped write.
But his Nickelback-ian bellow is still a primary influence on Theory frontman and principal songwriter Tyler Connelly, and Gasoline's read of the grunge handbook is just as broad.
The acoustic touches on "Hello Lonely" and "Santa Monica" are a respite from the record's processed distortion hammer,

but only in the way Tantric bludgeons the tradition of Alice in Chains' Jar of Flies EP.

No, Gasoline's main thrust is Connelly's brooding over a departed girlfriend, which he does incessantly as his band methodically transforms 1990s grunge dynamics into mindless 21st century hard rock thud.
Opener "Hating Hollywood" roars on the siphoned power of a riff you've heard a million times before, "No Way Out" overdoses on yowling wah-wah pedal, and "Better Off" is another three minutes of meaty guitar setting up a cynical,
one-dimensional chorus: "I don't care about anyone/You know that I'm better off," in this case.
"No Surprise" has a similarly unfortunate swagger — "It ain't no surprise/Woah that that bitch is leaving me" — but its melody at least carries it as a single.
Barely. Gasoline's remainder drops in a power ballad ("Since You've Been Gone"), a bluesy throwaway ("Hell Just Ain't the Same"),

and songs like "Quiver" and "Save the Best for Last" that would slot into anything by Nickelback or Puddle of Mudd without the turn of a tuning peg.

Orange Is In - Another Lame Semi-Tragedy (2006)

Check Out Orange Is In At Their
Website & MySpace
Buy Their 1st Full Release
Here or Here

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
orange is in was born out of the years of writing, recording and constant quoting of the movie Stripes by two talented veterans of the Houston music scene, George Kovacik and Jeff Balke.

In 2002, the two were joined by established veterans of the Houston music scene including Chris Rogers (late of Skillit) on guitar, Amy Price (late of Gordian Knot and the Buddhacrush) on violin and Leesa
Harrington-Squyres (late of Carolyn Wonderland) on drums.

A blend of pop hooks, hard-driving rhythms and a rootsy edge, the band has already won fans in Houston and around the Texas music scene. Recording over the summer and fall of 2005, in January 2006,
orange is in released its first full-length CD, Another Lame Semi-Tragedy.

Full of complex struggles of adult life, the tracks from Another Lame Semi-Tragedy are in stark contrast to the tongue-in-cheek title.
Both dark and hopeful imagery are set against a backdrop of lush, organic
instrumentation straddling the line between decidedly American rock and pop music.

Track List:
1. Run Towards The Warmth Of The Sun
2. Dividing All We Are
3. (You're Not) My Final Song
4. Dead Weight
5. Dancing All Alone
6. A Walk Through The Valley
7. Father's Day
8. Tell Me Why
9. Like You Do
10. Holding Me Holding You
11. She Calms My Nerves
12. Suzanna

Zakk Wylde - Book Of Shadows (1995)









192 Get It


After spending several years with Ozzy Osbourne and recording one album with the heavy Southern rock trio Pride & Glory, guitarist Zakk Wylde released his debut solo album, Book of Shadows, in June of 1996.
Naturally, the album is a guitar showcase, with each song boasting a dazzling guitar solo or two.
That much was expected.
What is a surprise is the musical diversity apparent throughout the album.

Wylde does kick out some heavy riff-driven rockers, but he also detours into blues, country, and folk on occasion.
That diversity ensures that Book of Shadows is more listenable for the average listener than most guitarist-led albums.
However, Wylde's songwriting skills remain weak; although the playing is memorable, the melodies rarely are.
Nevertheless, there's enough prime instrumental work here to make it a very worthwhile listen for guitar aficionados and a few of the tracks should satiate fans of straight-ahead heavy boogie rock.

[Book of Shadows was reissued in 1999 with a bonus disc, containing the non-LP cuts "Evil Ways," "The Color Green," and "Peddlers of Death."] by Stephen Thomas Erlewine (allmusic.com)

Track List
Disc: 1

1. Between Heaven And Hell
2. Sold My Soul
3. Road Back Home
4. Way Beyond Empty
5. Throwin' It All Away
