Clash - This Is Dub Clash (2000)

The Clash were an English rock band that formed in London in 1976 and were key players in the original wave of British punk rock. Billed as "The Only Band That Matters", they used elements of reggae, dub, funk, ska, and rockabilly, and they contributed to the post-punk and new wave movements that followed punk. 
For most of their recording career, the Clash consisted of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Joe Strummer, lead guitarist and vocalist Mick Jones, bassist Paul Simonon, and drummer Nicky "Topper" Headon

This Bootleg,  a great collection of dub material from The Clash, who explored this genre very deeply from 1980 onwards with Mikey Dread, who as Bill Price put it, added "Genuine Jamaican dub" to the Clash's music.
This album collects material from Sandinista! and Super Black Market Clash
along with a few songs no longer in print.
The songs are all remixes of other songs that you will be familiar with.

Depeche Mode - 101 (2CD) (1989)

101 is a live album and documentary film by English electronic music band Depeche Mode, released on 13 March 1989 by Mute Records
It chronicles the final leg of the band's Music for the Masses Tour and the final show on 18 June 1988 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.

As an event, Depeche Mode's huge (attendance around 60,000) Los Angeles Rose Bowl concert in 1988 remains legendary; no single artist show had totally sold out the venue since eight years beforehand, while the film documentary done by Dylan-filmer D.A. Pennebaker based around the show clearly demonstrated fans' intense commitment to a near-decade-old band most mainstream critics continued to stupidly portray as a flash-in-the-pan synth pop effort. 
This start-to-final-encore record of the concert showcases a band perfectly able to carry its music from studio to stage as well as any other combo worth its salt should be able to do. 
Understandably focused on Music for the Masses material, the album shows Depeche experimenting with alternate arrangements at various points for live performance; big numbers like "Never Let Me Down Again," "Stripped," and "Blasphemous Rumors" pack even more of a wallop here. 
Slower numbers and more than a couple of ballads help to vary the hit-packed set, including a fine "Somebody" and "The Things You Said" combination sung by Martin Gore. 
"Pleasure Little Treasure," on record an okay B-side, becomes a monster rocker live, the type of unexpected surprise one could expect from a solid band no matter what the music. 
With a triumphant set of closing numbers, including magnificent takes on "Never Let Me Down Again," "Master and Servant," and the set-ending "Everything Counts," with what sounds like the entire audience singing the chorus well after the song has finally ended, 101 does far better at its task than most might have guessed.

Rupert Holmes - Partners In Crime (1979)

Partners in Crime is the fifth studio album by British-American singer-songwriter and musician Rupert Holmes, released on August 5, 1979. 
The album was Holmes's most commercially successful record and includes all three of Holmes's solo top 40 hits: "Him", "Answering Machine", and "Escape (The Piña Colada Song)". 
"Escape" was the top Billboard hit of December 1979 and January 1980; it was the only single to hold the number-one position in both years and in different decades. 
Although "Escape (The Piña Colada Song)" was released as a single on Infinity Records, "Him" was released on MCA Records; the Infinity catalog had been absorbed by MCA at the time the latter single was released. 
The album itself reached number 33 on the Billboard 200

Before the release of this successful 1979 album, Holmes released four albums that failed to capture him at his best. 
Shortly before this, Holmes made his mark as songwriter. He penned the kitschy cannibalism tale "Timothy" for the Buoys. From his 1976 effort Singles came "The Last of the Romantics" which was covered to great effect by Engelbert Humperdinck. 
Partners in Crime finds Holmes more focused with pop savvy and a great batch of songs. The effort's biggest hit, the ingratiating "Escape" (The Pina Colada Song)," though skilled, is cutesy enough to make some people's eyes roll. 
Despite the nature of that track, Holmes was also willing to tackle more interesting issues. With the slightly disco-fied title track, he deftly examines the male/female dynamic as business deal. 
Throughout the song, Holmes is having a lot of fun with every salacious detail. "Nearsighted" has him going the power pop route and all but wringing tears out of seeing "slightly out of focus." 
As Partners in Crime goes along, what becomes striking is some of the tracks' subtle use of R&B flourishes. "Him" depicts Holmes as the cuckold and has a beautiful string arrangement, a great hook, and strong, vivid lyrics. 
The album's best ballad, "The People That You Never Get to Love" has Holmes again giving a warm and confident vocal and is poignant rather than weepy. 
Although there are a few waste cuts, on the whole Partners in Crime is a thought-provoking and polished album.

1.  Escape (The Piña Colada Song) - 4:36 
2.  Partners in Crime - 5:16

The Band - Islands (1977)

Islands is the seventh studio album by the Canadian-American rock group the Band. Released in 1977 to mixed reviews, it is the final studio album from the group's original lineup.

Primarily composed of previously unreleased songs from the Band's career (including their 1976 cover of "Georgia on My Mind", which was recorded to aid Jimmy Carter in his presidential bid), Islands was released to fulfill the group's contract with Capitol Records, so that the soundtrack to their film The Last Waltz could be released on Warner Bros. Records
In the CD liner notes, Robbie Robertson compares the album to the Who's Odds & Sods
John Bauldie in Q called the album "a ragbag of old outtakes and otherwise unplaceable new numbers.

Theoretically, even though the Band had given up touring as of Thanksgiving 1976, they were going to keep making records, and Islands was the first album released in the new era. 
Only it wasn't; it was the album they scraped together to complete their ten-LP contract with Capitol Records and the last new full-length album the original five members ever made. 
The playing, as ever, was impeccable, and the record had its moments, notably a Richard Manuel vocal on the chestnut "Georgia on My Mind" that had been released as a single in 1976 to boost Georgia governor Jimmy Carter's successful run for the presidency. 
But the songwriting quality was mediocre, and the Band had set such a standard for itself in that department that Islands couldn't help suffering enormously in comparison.

Manassas - Manassas (1972)

Manassas is the 1972 debut double album by Manassas, a blues rock group led by American musician Stephen Stills, released April 1972. 
It was a critical comeback for Stills, and continued his commercial success by being certified Gold only a month after being released and peaking at number 4 on the US charts.

The album was recorded at Criteria Studio B late 1971, where Stills used his clout to keep the studio and engineers Ron and Howard Albert available around the clock. 
The band all stayed in a rented house about 30 minutes away from the studio, in Coconut Grove
This allowed Stills to record the album around the clock, waking up band members in the early hours of the morning when an idea struck. Stills would also record in mammoth sessions often going on for days, until Chris Hillman and Stills got into a fight, after which they started to record at regular hours. 
Al Perkins and Dallas Taylor had a rule where they would not perform any more than seven takes for a single track, so often Stills would stay in the studio editing after having released the band at 4 or 5 am. 
The band then flew to Stills' house in London in January 1972 to finish recording and mixing the album and to rehearse for an upcoming tour starting in March 1972. It was here that Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones played bass on and co-authored "The Love Gangster" and is reported to have said that he would have left the Stones to join Manassas. 
At one point Stills put in an unbroken 106 hour stint in the studio, and engineer Ron Albert said he had just gotten to bed after a marathon session lasting 84 hours when the phone rang with Stills summoning him back to the studio with the words: "I know you're tired, but there's this idea I've got for this song that I want to get on tape before I forget it..." Another time, working to Stills' manic schedule, the band cut eight tracks in two days with no sleep.

The album was split into four thematic sides. 
Side 1 - The Raven, is a composite of rock and Latin sounds that the group would often perform in full live exactly as recorded. 
Side 2 - The Wilderness mainly centers on country and bluegrass. 
Side 3 - Consider is largely folk and folk-rock, and contains the song "Johnny's Garden", reportedly for the caretaker at Stills' English manor house bought from Ringo Starr
This includes Stills at his most experimental including using a Moog Synthesiser on "Move Around". The closing section, titled "Rock & Roll Is Here to Stay", is a rock and blues set.

"What to Do" and "Right Now" are Stills take on the CSNY split and his relationship with Graham Nash.

The album was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

C.C.C. Inc. - To Our Grandchildren (1971)

CCC Inc. (eerst opererend onder de naam Capital Canal City Folk & Blues Incorporated) is een Nederlandse Americanaband, oorspronkelijk afkomstig uit Amsterdam. 

De bekendste bezetting was: Joost Belinfante (viool, gitaar, zang), Jaap van Beusekom (banjo, autoharp, dobro, zang), Ernst Jansz (wasbord, piano, zang), Huib Schreurs (mondharmonica, concertina, zang), Jan Kloos (gitaar) en Appie Rammers (bas). 
De groep werd in 1966 opgericht en kwam in 1970 in het nieuws door zich als muziekcommune terug te trekken in de Brabantse Peel. De band werd daardoor een boegbeeld van de hippiecultuur van de 70er jaren en was met name populair in het alternatieve Provadya?
Eind 1969 besloten Cor van Sliedregt en Frank Hoogkamer de band te verlaten. Voor hen in de plaats kwamen Jan Kloos, school- en studievriend van Ernst Jansz, en tieneridool Appie Rammers, voormalig bassist bij de Amsterdamse Outsiders
De naam werd nu voorgoed: CCC Inc. of kortweg CCC. Begin 1970 verhuisde het gezelschap naar Neerkant, een klein dorp in de Brabantse Peel, en begon er een muziekcommune. Op 30 juli trad de groep op in VPRO’s live tv programma Piknik
Eind dat jaar werd de eerste lp opgenomen in de Bovema Studio van EMI in Heemstede, onder de productie van Wim Noordhoek en Rik Zaal, dj’s bij de VPRO. De vriendinnen van de muzikanten verleenden op een van de nummers vocale medewerking. 
Het album, To Our Grandchildren, opgenomen op 2-sporen en uitgebracht op Imperial, begin 1971, kreeg lovende kritieken: Veruit de beste popelpee in Nederland gemaakt.

Propaganda - Outside World (2002)

Propaganda was formed in Düsseldorf, West Germany, in 1982, by Ralf Dörper (a member of the pioneering German industrial band Die Krupps). 
As a trio, with artist Andreas Thein and vocalist Susanne Freytag, the group made initial recordings in Germany which were destined for future release in the UK, where Ralf Dörper's early experimental recordings had received critical acclaim by radio DJ John Peel and journalist Chris Bohn (aka Biba Kopf). 
With the inclusion of classically trained musician and composer, Michael Mertens and singer Claudia Brücken (who had been in an all female band, The Topolinos, with Freytag), music journalist Paul Morley signed the band to Trevor Horn's newly formed ZTT label in 1983.

Outside World is a 2002 compilation album by Propaganda. The album collects remixes, B-sides and extra tracks released on 7-inch and 12-inch records, cassette singles and white-label DJ vinyl pressings during the band's tenure on the ZTT label in 1984/85. 
It was released as a CD and as a CD with a bonus DVD containing promotional videos and TV commercials. 

Track 9 was originally only previously available as a promotional white-label 12-inch vinyl recording, having never been commercially released prior to its inclusion on this compilation.

The German version of the CD replaces "Complete Machinery" with "p:Machinery Connected", taken directly from a copy of the cassette single. As a result, the sound quality is diminished. Reference to this issue is made in the album's liner notes

Sonny & Linda Sharrock - Paradise (1975)

Sonny Sharrock was one of the first American free-jazz guitarists. He played in the '60s and early '70s with Miles Davis, Pharoah Sanders, Roy Ayers, Herbie Mann and many other greats. 
He also recorded three solo LPs at the beginning of the '70s with his wife Linda Sharrock on vocals, before discreetly disappearing from the musical scene. The couple divorced in 1978.

1st off, you have have to be ready for Linda's vocals. They're wordless, and an confident take on the path Yoko Ono blazed. 
It's mannered, funny, terrifying - i wonder if the B-52s heard this. She's in tune and fearless; i enjoy it, and i've sold Keith Jarrett records solely because of his vocalizations in the background. 
She doesn't sing that much, either. The focus is on the guitar.
That's the reason you're here, of course. Sharrock's guitar; he plays high up the fretboard, choking otherworldy skronks out. 
Everything wobbles and smears. It rocks as surely and complexly as any Ulmer or Fripp, but no one sounds exactly like this.
The rest of the band is competent, but not monster, famous players. The keyboardist, Kenny Armstrong, deserves mention for some fun Moog solos.
"Gary's Step" ends the record on a slow burn, building through successive waves of guitar frenzy on a bluesy groove and Linda's keening; Sharrock may not have liked this record, but I do.

The Pet Shop Boys are an English synth-pop duo formed in London in 1981.
