Eagles - 26-Aug-09 12:12 PM
The Eagles are for me one of the most overplayed, overrated, boring highly successful acts in music history. For some reason their bland brand of country-infused rocks resonates with mass audiences. Bandmembers Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Randy Meisner, and others have released equally uninteresting material away from the band. The Eagles are really more of a product and a corporate marketing concept than they are a band. My recomendation is to avoid their music at all costs.
Daughtry - 25-Aug-09 04:00 PM
Former American Idol finalist Chris Daughtry is in a rock band that is name after his last name. You probably already know this by now, and you probably also already know this band is extremely bland, predictable, commercial, and formulaic...But a blockbuster success nonetheless. I cannot recommend the music of Daughty at this time. This sort of music industry nonsense never would have taken place in the past. If its frontman had never been overexposed to millions of gullible viewers on Fox TV's American Idol, this pretend band never would have even existed. The worst of the worst in American entertainment.
Glenn Underground - 25-Aug-09 03:58 PM
One of the greatest and most prolific house music producers of all time, his best records are probably the ones he released on the Cajual/Relief/Prescription/Balance family in the mid-1990's, though many of his Guidance and Nite Life Collective releases are worth picking up as well. Best known as a deep houser but also a good producer of tech-house and disco sample house. His "Wilderness EP" as CVO on Balance Records seems to have been recalled or withdrawn and is one of the most valuable and collectible Chicago house music records of its era.
Billy Joel - 25-Aug-09 03:48 PM
Billy Joel is quite simply one of the most boring, overrated, overplayed musical performers of the last 100 years. Despite being a tremendously successful singer songwriter in commercial terms, the music of Billy Joel needs to be left in the past and man kind must start walking away from music such as Bill Joel that deserves to be buried in the sands of time. The most tolerable Billy Joel is the early Billy Joel, and the less singing and more commercial, the better.
Fresh And Low* - Wind On Water EP - 12-Jul-09 08:35 PM
This EP by the Scottish Deep House act was deeper than deep and certainly helped to establish Guidance Recordings from near downtown Chicago as a force to be reckoned with along with the mega-popular Blue Boy record that came out around the same time. While the record is probably best known for "Wind On Water" the quality level remains high throughout and furthermore this record seems to have stood the test of time particularly well and sounds much better than most of its deep house contemporaries. Fresh And Low would continue to release many records over the years on this and other labels under this and other names, but this release remains by far their best in my opinion.
