VA - The Baton Label ~ Sol's Story (1997)
Rhythm & Blues, Soul | Mp3 320 kbps | 170 Mb
The Baton label, run by Sol Rabinowitz, was a small New York R&B indie that had some modest successes in the 1950s, most notably with the original version of "Got My Mojo Working," by Ann Cole (included here). This has 28 sides from 1953-1959, three of them previously unissued, presenting a solid if occasionally generic mix of period R&B styles, particularly doo wop and jump R&B. Highlights include the dreamy doo wop of the Rivileers' 1953 single "A Thousand Stars," Baton's first release and first
Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons - Jersey's Best (2008)
Pop, Rock | Mp3 320 kbps | 2 CD | 212 Mb
At their best in the early '60s, the Four Seasons, thanks in no small part to the songwriting and production team of Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio, plus, of course, Frankie Valli's one of a kind soaring lead vocals, were a sort of bridge between the previous era's doo wop groups, the teen idol phenomenon that emerged in the very late '50s, and the coming pop sophistication of groups like the Beatles and the Beach Boys. Early- and mid-'60s tracks like

Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons - Jersey Beat (2007)
Pop, Rock | Mp3 320 kbps | 3 CD | 576 Mb
In the wake of the success of Jersey Boys, the theatrical production based on the Four Seasons' lives, Rhino issued this impressive three-CD, 76-track box set. It's never been hard to find a Four Seasons best-of that includes all their big hits (which are all here as well), but for those who want a bigger collection of the group's material, this fills the bill well. The usual intelligence Rhino brings to such large career retrospectives

Albert King - The Ultimate Collection (1993)
Blues | Mp3 320 kbps | 2 CD | 365 Mb
Rhino's 1993 double-disc set The Ultimate Collection remains the greatest-of-all Albert King collection, gathering the best of his recordings. True, the collection is tilted toward his Stax recordings, somewhat shortchanging his '50s and early-'60s recordings, but it is also true that the late-'60s/early-'70s recordings are the cornerstone of King's legacy, the ones that showcase his stinging guitar at its blistering best. By acknowledging as much the set gains credibility, it doesn't lose it, and while an artist with a career as long

Ike & Tina Turner - The Ike & Tina Turner Revue ~ Live!!! (1993)
R&B, Soul | Mp3 320 kbps | 107 Mb
With most classic R&B acts, we feel lucky to get one genuine live recording -- in the case of Ike & Tina Turner, by contrast, we have an embarrassment of riches in the way of concert recordings from the early- to mid-1960s, and it started with this Kent Records release. Issued in 1964, soon after they left Kent, it captured 35 minutes of their live act, from the Club Imperial and the Harlem Club in St, Louis. In addition to Tina Turner in an extended rap attached to "Please, Please, Please," we also get Jimmy Thomas
Bix Beiderbecke - The Art Of Bix Beiderbecke (2006)
Jazz | Mp3 320 kbps | 2 CD | 292 Mb
In 2006 Primo brought out a 40-track collection entitled The Art of Bix Beiderbecke. Loosely covering a time span extending from June 20, 1924 to May 21, 1930, this pleasantly jumbled portrait touches briefly upon Bix's early work with the Wolverine Orchestra and the Sioux City Six; revisits his collaborations with C melody saxophonist Frankie Trumbauer, and stirs in examples of Beiderbecke leading his Rhythm Jugglers, his Gang and his Orchestra. Also included is evidence of Bix's adventures as a member of the Paul Whiteman Orchestra

Moon Mullican - I'll Sail My Ship Alone (2002)
Country | Mp3 320 kbps | 2 CD | 361 Mb
One of the first issues in Proper's "Pairs" series, this budget two-disc set is the most comprehensive overview of Moon Mullican's music available, spanning his career from his days with the Blueridge Playboys in the mid-'30s to his solo recordings of the early '50s. Its 50 tracks don't contain all of his best recordings (no Mullican collection does), but his most important songs -- "I'll Sail My Ship Alone," "New Jole Blon," and "Cherokee Boogie" -- are here, along with many other greats.

The Beatnix - It's Four You (1994)
Rock | Mp3 320 kbps | 117 Mb
The Beatnix' It's Four You is the work of painstaking archivists who gathered all 19 Lennon/McCartney compositions that were given to other artists (like P.J. Proby, Cilla Black, Billy J. Kramer & the Dakotas, Peter & Gordon, etc.) and never recorded for Beatles albums. The Beatnix perform these songs faithfully, in a strongly Beatlesque style that crosses the line from influence into imitation. But that's the point of the album -- giving power-pop fans a chance to hear what these songs probably would have sounded like had the Beatles kept them -- and in that sense, it accomplishes exactly what it set out to do.
