A new series of cheapo reissues caught my eye...read on
Original Album Series and Original Classic Albums are super cheapo compilations of five "classic" albums by various artists for around £11. The packaging is bog standard and some of the artists and albums stretch the word "classic" to breaking point but it is a great way of getting a shed load of good "reference" music for sampling or acquiring a whole catalog of a band you may have only dipped a toe into, such as I did with Earth, Wind and Fire. A good range of genres are represented as well, from funk and jazz to AOR (shudder) and country.
My picks are:
Original Classic Albums
Miles Davis
Duke Ellington
Nina Simone
Lonnie Liston Smith
Isley Brothers
Original Album Series
Dr John
Aretha Franklin
Bootsy's Rubber Band
Little Feat
Unless of course you prefer Ted Nugent, Kansas or The Cars....in which case please stop reading this blog.
