This EP from Primus contains 5 cover songs. Their cover of Pink Floyd's Have A Cigar is absolutely stunning.

First solo album from ex-Skid Row vocalist. Some new studio songs and some solo performances of Skid Row songs. Fans of Skid Row should probably have this; other will probably have no interest.

I have to admit that I really don't like this album all that much, YET. I fully expect that it will eventually grow on me, but I am new to VDGG and I find this hard to enjoy at the moment. I am a bit better with Peter Hammill's voice than when I started with VDGG, but I still don't really care for David Jackson's saxophone playing. At times the sax playing is decent, but mostly it just sounds like he is strangling a cat.

Debut solo album from Led Zeppelin front man. I think that this is the most Zeppelin-esque of his solo albums and should appeal to Led Zeppelin fans.

Includes Alex Lifeson on guitar and Tony Levin on bass guitar. Lawrence Gowan later went on to join Styx.

Almost sounds like a Rush album to me. Great stuff!!!

In my opinion, an excellent compilation. For me, The Who are one of those bands where the greatest hits album is much better than any of their individual albums.

Unlike many, I tend to enjoy cover songs and cover albums as a way of seeing how some of my favorite bands might sound doing another bands music and there are always a few song that I have never previously heard before so it might lead to new discoveries. That being said, while a fun listen, I would guess that this was done under label pressure and to fulfill contract obligations and won't appeal to those who frown upon these kind of albums.

King's X meets Winger. This supergroup's debut and only album to-date, brings Doug Pinnick from King's X together with Reb Beach of Winger fame to create a very enjoyable hard rock/hair metal album. The album was produced by Kip Winger and also includes Kelly Keagy from Night Ranger on drums and Timothy Drury from Whitesnake and formerly of The Eagles on keyboards. For fans of the aforementioned bands.

I purchased this album solely for the purpose of owning a version of Turn Up The Radio, which was a hair metal anthem from my teenage years.

I know. I am strange. Most people do not like the ABWH album. I like it quite a bit however. I also like the Yes Union album too however, so take that for whatever it is worth.

The debut album from Steven Tyler and company contains Dream On, one of the greatest power ballads ever written, and Mama Kin, a really good rocking song that I had never heard until Guns and Roses covered it many, many years later. The rest of the album is decent blues rock in the typical Aerosmith sound which will be further developed on future albums.

I am not a big fan of David Bowie's and I don't know how representative this compilation is of his catalogue, but I do like many of the songs that are included on this compiliation.

This is one of my favorite live albums of all time. The original was released in 1993 with 12 or 13 songs on it. The expanded 2-disc edition was released in 2003. These discs consist of many of the Moody Blues greatest songs played live with a symphony orchestra. Highly recommended to fans of the Moody Blues and symphonic prog music.

This is a compilation of songs from the Police frontman's solo career. I believe that Sting is generally labeled as adult contemporary or easy listening but I find his music to be much better than that of artists that are generally labelled as such. There appears to be various versions of this compilation album. My version has only 14 songs and includes Fortress Around Your Heart and Be Still My Beating Heart, and it does not include the 5 songs that I have marked as bonus. The track listing is slightly different as well. As will most compilation albums, this is a good retrospective of Sting's solo career. There are other songs that I might have included and some that I might not have included but overall it is a good representation of his career. This also includes 2 new songs which I believe were first released on this album When We Dance and The Cowboy Song.

This album is the soundtrack to the Wes Craven movie Scream 2. I purchased it used because it had a decent lineup of alternative and pop artists including Dave Matthews, Collective Soul, Foo Fighters, Tonic, Everclear, and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. As with most soundtracks, some of the music is pretty good and some of it I could do without. All in all this is an OK album.

I now own this on CD, but Pyromania was one of the two first proper rock albums that I ever owned on vinyl. I got this album and Quiet Riot's Metal Health as Christmas presents. Anyhow, I still really like this album all these years later.

Wow. Much anticipated and long awaited. This completes the Porcupine Discography as far as full albums. I don't have Nil Recurring yet. I immensely enjoyed this album on first listen.

Where's the music???? I know that this is the kind of stuff prog fans seem to really like about King Crimson, but seriously, where's the music???? Once in a while they throw in some song structures, but mostly this is just a noise salad; random noises tossed together. And I suppose I tend to prefer cheese with my salads, and there is little of that to be found here.

This is a sampler album created by ProgRock Records to promote their excellent stable of unknown modern progressive rock bands. This is easily one of my favorite compilation albums of all times. This "free" CD did cost me tons of money however, after I went out and purchased most of the albums featured on it.
