| Deep Purple - Listen, Learn, Read On
|
(EMI 24354-09732 EU-02 800:-)
This 6-CD box set tells the band's story from their first American hit in 1968 through to their final live shows in 1976. It does so through a remarkable collection of over seventy tracks (around a quarter of which are unreleased), all subject to extensive work at EMI's Abbey Road Studio to ensure the highest sound quality.
If you want an in-depth introduction to the group, all their classic numbers are here, many newly remastered, while long term fans will turn to the twenty or so previously unissued live performances, radio sessions and alternate takes. In addition the box also houses a long format book written by Deep Purple archivist Simon Robinson, which tells the band's story in detail via 120 pages of text, with pictures, cuttings, memorabilia, musician profiles and discographies. The set is further enhanced by a selection of early tracks by the members of the band prior to joining Deep Purple, giving an insight into their pre-Purple careers.

| Doobie Brothers - same
|
(Warner WPCR-12349 Jap-06 175:-)
One of the most inauspicious debuts by a major rock group, this subdued slice of country boogie might be called the missing link between Moby Grape and the later, revved-up Doobies of "Listen to the Music." Only a handful of West Coast hippies bought this record originally, but it lays the blueprint for the Doobies' future radio-friendly sound: chugging rhythm guitar, stretched-out harmonies, Tom Johnston's joyful R&B vocals, and Patrick Simmons' acoustic picking.

| Doobie Brothers - The Captain and Me
|
(Warner WPCR-12351 Jap-06 175:-)
The Doobie Brothers' third long-player was the charm, their most substantial and consistent album to date, and one that rode the charts for a year. It was also a study in contrasts, Tom Johnston's harder-edged, bolder rocking numbers balanced by Patrick Simmons' more laid-back country-rock ballad style.

| Dury, Ian - Laughter
|
(Victor VICP-64055/56 Jap-08 275:-)
Working with lead guitarist Wilco Johnson, Ian Dury gradually moves away from disco with his third album, Laughter. The steady dance pulse is still apparent, but it's balanced by rockers and pub singalongs that give the album more depth.
Vinyl Replica Paper Sleeve with 3 bonus tracks and Bonus disc (16 tracks) included.
