Excitable Boy: Remastered & Expanded

Search: Outtake
by: Warren Zevon

Release Date March 26, 2007
This is an outstanding and powerful album. The entire first half unfolds one masterpiece after another, although the whole lot are superb. This CD has bonus tracks too, including the haunting "I Need A Truck." Buy this, you'll thank me.

The Envoy: Remastered & Expanded

Search: Outtake
by: Warren Zevon

Release Date March 26, 2007
Although there are a couple of weak tracks, "The Envoy" features Warren Zevon in classic form. Referred to as "Excitable Boy" grows up when it was first released, "The Envoy" sounds quite good in the latest edition from Rhino. A pity that this wasn't released while Warren was alive. This album was available previously as an expensive import and key tracks were on Warren's two CD retrospective on Rhino but this is the first time (to my knowledge) that the whole album has appeared on CD. This captures Mr. Bad Example in very fine form indeed.

"Jesus Mentioned" played on acoustic guitar is very spare sounding thoughtful song about Elvis Presley and, of course, has plenty of Warren's humor in it. The title track is a killer rocker. "Looking ... Read More:

Soft Bulletin 5.1 [CD + DVD]

Search: Outtake
by: Flaming Lips

Release Date February 20, 2006
With every truly good rock band, they hit their peak in a stunning, magnificent album that leaves people breathless. For the Flaming Lips, that album is "The Soft Bulletin," their 1999 opus -- a trippy, epic, ingeniously strange collection compiled of only good songs. It's not musical perfection, but close to it.

It opens with a glorious Mellotron wave, which is deliberately just a little off, at the start of "Race For The Prize (Sacrifice Of The New Scientists)." "Two scientists were racing/For the good of all mankind/Both of them side by side/So determined," Wayne Coyne croons. With, of course, offbeat echoes and electronic wavers and whispers layered over the indierock melody.

Without sounding overpolished, the songs that follow ... Read More:

The Night Races into Anna

Search: Outtake
by: Green Pajamas

Release Date November 14, 2006
A stunning collection of oddities, offcuts and previously unreleased tracks which hangs together surprisingly well. Many bands would give their right arms to release an album of such quality.

For Pajamas fans it's absolutely essential, for others it's a good opportunity to dip into one of the most under-rated bands of our time....
