Revolver [UK]

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: The Beatles

October 25, 1990
For my definition of 'classic' albums please refer to my review of 'Heaven Or Las Vegas' by the Cocteau Twins.

If The Beatles had ended their career with the album "Help", they would still remain the best pop and rock band of all time. But that was not meant to be. God wanted more. It was Thursday and God still had one more working day. I was amazed, astonished and stunned with God's creations on the first five days of the week. It was too much to me. But on Friday he seemed to be in a better mood and came up with something half sweet, half weird, called Rubber Soul, an ape losing his body hair and tail and standing on his two feet. And then God said: "I've had enough. I've created human being and a world for him. Now I'm gonna ... Read More:

Music for the Motion Picture Into the Wild

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Eddie Vedder

September 18, 2007
Great music, fit the movie perfect and best of all it stands alone....One bad thing to say: The songs are too short!
If you are going on a road trip, this CD is perfect! Also it is a great stress reliever! Eddie's voice has so much emotion and the lylics are pure poetry!

A Rush of Blood to the Head

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Coldplay

August 27, 2002
I was given this album as a gift three years ago and while it was new to me I immediately noticed that the lead vocalist had no idea of how to break away from singing very "clunkily" in syllables...to every song!!!
I haven't read all the reviews to this album (would take days) but wonder if he annoys anyone else as much as he annoys me?

High Voltage

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: AC/DC

February 18, 2003
The first American release from the sneering and swaggering AC/DC was a torn together pastiche of two Australian albums with a new cover, but that doesn't stop "High Voltage" from giving serious zap power. AC/Dc had already figured out exactly what route (Highway to Hell, maybe) they were taking and began to blast their way to the top. Even with the heavy dose of filler that's on this CD, there's still no way to deny the visceral force of the best songs here.

There's the statement of purpose in "It's a Long Way To The Top," the rock- as-street-gang chant with "TNT" and the dirty joke as blues number when Bon Scott sneers "She got The Jack." Behind it all is Angus Young's volume blasting but deceptively dexterous guitars and one of rock's best ... Read More:

Let There Be Rock

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: AC/DC

April 29, 2003
This is AC/DC`s best produced album. Vander and Young did a suburb job on the dials here. Everything about the sound on this album is brilliant, the guitars are right up front and virtually assault your ears, the drumming and bass are tight as a virgin`s you know what and finally Bon`s vocals are so powerful and loud. It`s not punk but it`s just as, if not more, ferocious as punk but their playing and musicianship is much better than punk. This album, i think, made a bit of a turning point in British music back in 1977. Just as people were getting a bit tired of average playing punk musicians, along came this Australian album which had everything punk had but was more skillfully played than punk. It`s not punk though, it`s heavy rock`n`roll. I`d even class it a heavy ... Read More:

Forever More

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Tesla

October 07, 2008
As I expected, Tesla still has that soulful hard rock thing happening. Although I just receieved this CD this last weekend, I believe it to be right up there with their best. It is nice to hear new music from one of my all time favorite bands. There is something about their music that always sounds genuine and pure. Buy this CD, you won't be disappointed.

Tennessee Pusher

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Old Crow Medicine Show

September 23, 2008
Though I love this type of country music I found Tennessee Pusher to be repetitive and way too druggy. I would play maybe two of these songs again.
Not worth the money.

Michael Bublé

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Rock
by: Michael Bublé

February 11, 2003
I know I'm a bit behind buying this album now when its been out for a few years, but I own the two newest albums and LOVE them. I have to say that this album did not disappoint me one bit. I think I like it even more than his most recent albums. The songs are so romantic and sexy. If you are a Michael Buble fan and don't have this one yet, do yourself a big favor and buy it!
