Aztec Camera's 1983 album High Land, Hard Rain showcases frontman Roddy Frame at his most blissfully unaware, creating soulful post-punk with pieces that weren’t neccessarily supposed to fit together. This 30th Anniversary Reissue includes B-sides, remixes and live radio sessions from the period.

At the time, Press to Play was occasionally promoted as Macca's response to punk – which we all better hope is not true, since that means he was responding ten years after the fact, signaling just how out of touch he was. But McCartney wasn't that disconnected from reality (he did talk about punk in interviews from the late '70s), so a more accurate view of Press to Play is to see it as McCartney trying to reconnect with his classic strengths, from orchestral pop and whimsy to driving rockers and sweet love songs…

Quiet Life is the album that transformed Japan from past-tense glam rockers into futuristic synth popsters, though they'd been leaning in that direction for a while. It's also a solid proto-New Romantic synthesizer record, enhanced by Mick Karn's superb fretless bass work and David Sylvian's smooth, sneering vocals spread over pop hits like the title track and "Fall in Love with Me."…

In 1996 Ripete Records brought out The Best of Both Worlds, a pleasantly rowdy electric blues album by Napoleon "Nappy" Brown and the late Kip Anderson, natives of North and South Carolina, respectively. Stocked with standard jump blues material, some of it dating from the heyday of Brown's early successes as a Savoy recording artist, the punchy '90s production makes this a natural choice for cheerful reckless celebration and stress release. Highlights are a cover of Sticks McGhee's "Drinkin' Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee," a jammin' rendition of "Who Threw the Whiskey in the Well," Brown's famous "Night Time," and "Don't Be Angry," Anderson's rockin' "Knife and Fork," and a kicker of a version of "Hit the Road, Jack." If you're fixing to blow off a little steam, want to light a fire under a party, or just need a nice friendly kick in the butt, this might do it for you.
