About This Item

Wildfire was a household name in Tropical Island music circles due to their excellent albums and performances throughout Trinidad, Tobago, the Caribbean & US Virgin Islands and French Guadeloupe. In 1962 they started off as 'The Sparks' (a well-respected Calypso outfit who released a bunch of successful singles) but with the of their hit single 'Come On Down' from 1975, they exploded into Wildfire. Wildfire had a very fruitful career and released four top full-length albums and a vast amount of singles before calling it quits. Led by bandleader Oliver Chapman (bass & guitar player, vocalist, arranger, producer and co-writer for the majority of the bands' songs) and comprised out of high talented musicians, Wildfire was out there with the big boys in the niche they carved out for themselves. On the album we are presenting you today (Time Is The Answer from 1980) you'll find the perfect mix of funk, soul and disco, basically the popular sounds of the day, and all tracks are originals. The album is FUNKY and the production quality can rival with any of their peers and records produced/recorded in the US. The performance of Wildfire on this album is beyond excellent. This was also the first time the group took control over production and getting their album out in the world. Also included is the hit single 'Say A Little Prayer For The Children' which is just one of those songs that will be stuck in your head forever. Besides virtuoso Oliver Chapman the talent that was featured on 'Time Is The Answer' is exceptional. Anstey Hamilton carries around a rich noticeable tenor voice. Arthur Byron who also did vocals on the album, has a beautiful rasping tone that can knock you out anytime he gets into his act. Fitzroy Isaac on keyboards and Donald Leid on drums are the guys that were responsible for keeping the groove tight. Clifford Wilson like Oliver had been wit

    Alice Cooper - Alice Cooper's Greatest Hits   - VINYL LP
    4.5(2)

    Vinyl LP pressing. Alice Cooper's Greatest Hits is the only greatest hits album by rock band Alice Cooper, and their last as a band. Released in 1974, it features hit songs from all of their studio albums, but does not include any material from their first two albums Pretties for You or Easy Action. This compilation's song versions were remixed by Jack Richardson at the time, with the remix of InchI'm EighteenInch being released as a single in the US. The reason behind remixing the songs was perhaps to boost it's appeal as InchnewInch versions because no new tracks were available for inclusion by the group as they were on hiatus at the time. Album Tracks 1. I'm Eighteen 2. Is It My Body 3. Desperado 4. Under My Wheels 5. Be My Lover 6. School's Out 1. Hello Hooray 2. Elected 3. No More Mr. Nice Guy 4. Billion Dollar Babies 5. Teenage Lament '74 6. Muscle of Love

    Madvillain - Madvillainy   - VINYL LP
    4.9(11)

    Madvillain Madlib, MF Doom. Additional personnel includes Lord Quas, M. E. D. , Wildchild, Viktor Vaughn, Stacy Epps. Two years in the making, and combining two of the best underground hip-hop artists of the early 2000s, this collaboration between MF Doom and Madlib has been appropriately dubbed MADVILLAINY. With both men known for their stunning soundscapes, rhyming skills, and schizophrenic personalities, the duo decided to have Madlib concentrate on the beats and let Doom handle the lyrics. In mixing their comic-book-like personas, Madlib and Doom play to their nearly superhuman strengths; while some other collaborations of this caliber seems forced and lop-sided, there is absolutely no filler here-just undiluted beats and rhymes, best exemplified by the singles InchAmerica's Most BluntedInch and InchAll Caps. Inch Lib's inventive production leans towards the jazzy side of his repertoire, and Doom unleashes outrageous lyrics on par with his solo efforts (and even his work as Zevlove X in his stint with K. M. D. ). Never flashy or glamorous, MADVILLAINY is served straight up, the way hip-hop was meant to be. Album Tracks 1. The Illest Villains 2. Accordion 3. Meat Grinder 4. Bistro 5. Raid 6. America's Most Blunted 7. Sickfit 8. Rainbows 9. Curls 10. Do Not Fire! 11. Money Folder 12. Shadows of Tomorrow 13. Operation Lifesaver Aka Mint Test 14. Figaro 15. Hardcore Hustler 16. Strange Ways 17. Fancy Clown 18. Eye 19. Supervillain Theme 20. All Caps 21. Great Day 22. Rhinestone Cowboy
