41.The Very Best Of Cream by: Cream January 24, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £9.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.98 You Save: £5.01 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.00
If this really were the best of Cream it would consist almost entirely of live tracks whereas in fact there is only one included here, the celebrated 'Crossroads'. In any case 'Wrapping Paper' and 'Anyone For Tennis' obviously have no business being here as 'the best of' but are here simply because they happened to be released as singles, more because of Cream's management than Cream themselves. On the other hand of course this sort of compilation traditionally rounds up things that are not included on the main albums thus insuring sales to completists. I really wish they had not chosen to take 'I'm So Glad' from 'Fresh Cream' as this does sound very artificial especially when compared with the amazing live version on 'Goodbye Cream'. ...

42.Blonde on Blonde by: Bob Dylan March 29, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £9.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.98 You Save: £5.01 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.80
Blonde on Blonde When you've had a rubbish week and the hum-drum routine is starting to get you down, put this record on and be reassured. I love all of Dylan's work but not all of it is as joyful and pleasurable as this. Like fine food and wine, Blonde on Blonde is one of life's great indulgences.

43.Electric Ladyland by: Jimi Hendrix Experience July 26, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £14.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.98 You Save: £5.01 (33%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £6.00
The definitive Hendirx cd, brilliantly produced it ranges from low beat blues records such as 'voodoo chile' to upbeat rock records in 'crosstown traffic' to great covers in the form of 'all along the watchtower'. The 'wah-wah' effect on 'voodoo child slight return' is ledgendary and will be remembered until the end of man. The guitar playing on '1983...(A Merman I Should Turn To Be)' is brilliant and really suits the pysecdelic theme of the song.

44.461 Ocean Boulevard by: Eric Clapton March 17, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.97 You Save: £2.02 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £4.25
This is a wonderful album. It marked Clapton's sobriety following his heroin usage, and has a theme of redemption and rebirth running through it. Also, there's a strong taste of someone who has turned himself inside and out. In places, this is passionate, elsewhere playful, and in many places you can hear a man asking himself what he has left. Fantastic stuff, strongly recommended.

45.At Fillmore East by: The Allman Brothers Band July 06, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.97 You Save: £2.02 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.49
Beautiful recordings from this masterpiece live session at Fillmore east. Duane is something out of this world - and the others aren't far behind. I place Duane Allman up there with Peter Green and Hendrix, what a player! If you like Rock, Blues/Rock then this is for you, Clapton who??

46.Aman Iman by: Tinariwen February 05, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £12.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.98 You Save: £3.01 (23%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.00
I'm no world music expert, but from time to time something comes along from outside the English speaking world that demands my attention. 'Aman Iman' is such an album. These Touareg musicians from the Western Sahara create a music whose 'otherness' is obvious, yet which is immediately accessible to western sensibilities. Their music evokes the solitude of the desert and the loneliness of exile, and yet is life affiriming and joyous. It's a thrumming, hypnotic, even foot-stomping sound, not obviously African, with arabic influences and hints of the blues, and deserves a wider audience.

47.Rolled Gold (Special Edition) by: Rolling Stones November 12, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £19.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £11.98 You Save: £8.01 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £9.32
I had the vinyl version of this album. It is by far the best Rolling Stones collection on the market. This CD release is no disappointment. The sound quality is superb. I can add little to other reviews, with one exception. This was the only place that I knew the stereo version of "Paint it Black" to be. I can confirm that this reissue still has the "Paint it Black" track in stereo, which was a major reason for me buying this collection for another time. I agree with a previous reviewer who says that this is a much better collection than "Hot Rocks." This is a much better collection and better sound quality.

48.Blues Deluxe by: Joe Bonamassa May 30, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £13.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £8.98 You Save: £5.01 (36%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £9.71
I discovered Bonamassa for myself not long ago with the 2008 "live from nowhere in particular" and immediately bought his other albums. Among the latter this one just stands out head and shoulders! Blues/Rock artists are thirteen a dozen these days, but Joe is special. He has got an amazing musical range, masters the guitar like god, but THIS album did for me what Texas Flood (from SRV) did many years ago. This is a pure blues album, covers all from acoustics to slide, from fast to slow, and there is not one weak song. Honestly I have thousands of blues CD's and I think these days it is not easy to come up with something that just has not been done before. But Bonamassa amazed me, he is special, he really seems to have the blues inside him, and he deserves the hype around ... Read More:

49.Naturally by: J.J. Cale October 07, 1987
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £2.98 You Save: £3.01 (50%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £1.70
"Naturally" by J J Cale - an album that compells you to nod your head and utter the words "Hell, yeah." Make no mistake, this album is seriously cool - a short collection of perfectly executed tunes. The tunes bop and swagger along, underpinned by tantalising guitar licks, awesome boogie-woogie piano, cheeky drum beats and Cale's laconic vocal drawl. "After Midnight" is a cracker - a bluesy piano riff, off-beat rhythms and a sassy vocal from Mr Cale. "Nowhere To Run" is beautiful muted funk, with choppy piano, a honeyed vocal line and a solid gold horn section. Both of these tunes are perfect examples of the laid back vibe that permeates this consistently great album. "Naturally" is as welcome and as easily enjoyable as a rare steak served ... Read More:

50.Layla & Other Assorted Love Songs by: Derek & The Dominos March 17, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £8.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.98 You Save: £4.01 (45%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.99
This is one of the few albums that can be classed as a masterpiece. From the perfectly crafted album opener 'I Looked Away' to the evocative 'Bell Bottom Blues', the powerful blues of 'Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out' to the great riff on 'Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad', the masterly Hendrix cover 'Little Wing' and of course the song that never loses it's power 'Layla', this album has so many gems and brilliant tracks it is hard to know where to begin. 'Layla' sounds so powerful, especially sitting amidst the other tracks on this album, and on reflection it really does adhere to the 'timeless' label heaped on lesser songs. This songs till ignites after all these years. This albums shows EC playing at his height and most creative and although he has played as well since, this ... Read More:
