Bassturd, The	"dirty Dirty South"	2009	Shrug/stone Cold Shit Records	Mint	0.00	This is a 45 RPM single, with the A-side being "Dirty Dirty South (featuring Steely D.Z.L.) and the B-side being "More Fucked Up than You" (featuring the Country Blumpkins). The quality of the vinyl is impressive, with none of the brittle artifacts I reme

1,000 Mona Lisas	Ep, The	1995	Rca	Excellent	0.00	This 5-track EP contains a hardcore cover of "You Oughta Know" as a bonus track.
3	Paint By Number	2000	Planet Noise	Excellent	0.00	This is the debut album from a rock combo that halis from Woodstock, NY. Joey Eppard's vocals recall both Chip Z'Nuff and Wheatus' Brendan B. Brown. I was surprised to find out that the band is still around after ten years. Good for them.
3	Don't Even	2000	Planet Noise	Mint	0.00	This is a limited edition, business card-sized CD single from band's sessions for their debut album, "Paint By Number." It's probably a collector's item.
30 Seconds To Mars	A Beautiful Lie	2005	Immortal/virgin	Excellent	0.00	This album features the band's hits "Attack," "The Kill," "From Yesterday" and the title track. The end of the album is capped with two untitled bonus tracks.
34 Satellite	Radar	2000	Hideaway	Excellent	0.00	Take Paul Westerberg, add some Springsteen and a large dollop of country. Mix together and you have 34 Satellite. Featuring the drummer from the Screaming Trees, the guitarist from Snatches of Pink and the bassist from Whiskeytown, this is a good mix of t
3rd Bass	Pop Goes The Weasel	1991	Def Jam/columbia	Excellent	0.00	This extended singles features the album, radio and instrumental versions of the title track as well as the album and remix versions of "Derelict of Dialect."
58	Diet For A New America	2000	Americoma/beyond	Excellent	0.00	This Nikki Sixx side project featured Steve Gibb on guitar (his dad is Barry of the Bee Gees). Musically, it follows the electronic-rock trend set by the Crue's "Generation Swine." An interesting effort.
88, The	Demo	2003	Emk	Excellent	0.00	This is the four-song demo CD from a LA pop-rock band. Nice.
8stops7	In Moderation	1999	Reprise	Very Good	0.00
98 Degrees	This Christmas	1999	Uptown/universal	Very Good	0.00	This is a good, modern-soul Christmas album.

Abney Park	Dark Christmas	2009		Very Good	0.00
Abney Park	Dark Christmas			Very Good	0.00	This is a great collection of electronica interpretations of Christmas songs, and it my favorite within the genre.
Ac/dc	Iron Man 2	2010	Columbia	Mint	0.00	While this is a compilation album, it still is not the greatest hits package the band needs. Points are scored, however, for including "Rock 'n' Roll Damnation," "Cold Hearted Man," "Evil Walks," "The Razor's Edge" and "Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be." T
Ace Of Base	Beautiful Life	1995	Arista	Very Good	0.00	In addition to the single version, this disc contains the Vission Lorimer Radio Edit.
Adele	21	2011	Xl/columbia	Mint	0.00
Aerosmith	Honkin' On Bobo	2004	Columbia	Very Good	0.00
Aerosmith	Rockin' The Joint	2005	Columbia	Mint	0.00	This is an excellent live album. Much better than the previous "A Little South of Sanity," Aerosmith pounds through a lot of early tracks, including "Seasons of Wither," "No More, No More" and "Rattlesnake Shake." They sound great throughout, and this dis
Aerosmith	Done With Mirrors	1985	Geffen	Mint	0.00	This album is the precursor to "Permanent Vacation," but there are no hair-metal flashes here, just solid hard rock. Surprisingly good, the disc is led off with "Let the Music Do the Talking," which previously appeared on the Joe Perry Project album.
Al Green And Teddy Pendergrass	Back To Back Hits	1995	Cema Special Markets	Mint	0.00
Alice Cooper	Live	2002	Classic World	Mint	0.00	This disc has also been released under the title "Live in Toronto '69," and that is an apt title. This is a VERY early edition of the band, before Vincent Furnier adopted the Cooper persona himself. As such, the material is much more heavy psychedelia rat
Allen And Allen	Christmas Like Never Before	1995	Cgi	Very Good	0.00	The gospel duo use the smooth jazz/lite funk approach to a holiday album.
America	History: America's Greatest Hits	1975	Warner Brothers	Excellent	0.00	A great compilation that is only short of "You Can Do Magic." Barring that, this is all the America you need.
Anita Baker	Rhythm Of Love	1994	Elektra	Very Good	0.00
Anthrax	Return Of The Killer A's	1999	Beyond/spitfire	Very Good	0.00
Atlanta Rhytm Section	Champagne Jam	1978	Polydor	Mint	0.00	This is the best-selling album from the southern easy-rockers, and contains the hits "I'm Not Gonna Let It Bother Me Tonight," the title track and "Imaginary Lover." Casual fans would be better served with a greatest hits collection, but this is a nice li
Audioslave	Revelations	2006	Epic/interscope	Mint	0.00	Found this in the bargain bin at CVS. An excellent CD that has more funky rhythms than the first two discs, but still rocks as hard. Chris Cornell's voice is still a marvel, especially on "Wide Awake." If this is truly the band's last album, it's a hell o
Bachman-turner Overdrive	Freeways	1977	Mercury	Mint	0.00	This was Randy Bachman's last album with the band. All the rough edges have been smoothed away, leaving behind a disc of mid-70's AOR. Everything's professionally played, it's just kind of limp. Save your cash for a good hits comp.
Bad Company	Extended Versions	2011	Sony	Mint	0.00	This is a live set from the UK, recorded in April, 2010.
Bag Of Panties	Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day	1999	Self-released	Excellent	0.00	An interestingly sloppy indie band from Brooklyn. Lots of different sounds on this disc.

Bassturd, The	Bling Ballz	2008	Stone Cold Shit	Mint	0.00	This is the 18th disc in a series of 20 EP's and features the BassTurd with a variety of collaborators on five hip-hop tracks. My favorites are the title track in which the 'Turd exhorts homies to sport the ultimate bling: a rhinestone-encrusted scrotum (
Beach Boys, The	Greatest Surfing Songs!	1990	Cema Special Products	Excellent	0.00	This is a budget collection of hits. The sound isn't great, the liner notes are incomplete and the packaging is cheap. Pass this one by.
Bee Gees	Thier Greatest Hits: The Record	2001	Universal	Mint	0.00	This is an excellent two-disc anthology that has all the hits. Also included is "Guilty" (Barbara Streisand's duet with Barry Gibb) as well as band renditions of hits they wrote for other artists: "If I can't Have You," "Emotion," "Heartbreaker" and "Isla

Benatar, Pat	Greatest Hits	2005	Capitol	Excellent	0.00	This is the best single-disc collection of Benetar's hits, lacking only 1993' "Somebody's Baby." Nice liner notes round out the collection.

Better Than Ezra	Deluxe	1995	Elektra	Very Good	0.00	This is the band's debut album, and contains the hits "Good" and "Rosealia." There is a bonus track tacked on to the last song of the album.
Big Wreck	In Loving Memory Of...	1997	Atlantic	Excellent	0.00	A good hard rock effort from a group that wanted to be Soundgarden. Although they fell short, it's still a solid disc. The lead singer and guitarist for Big Wreck went on to form the group Thornicus.
Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings	Double Bill	2001	Disky	Very Good	0.00	This is a two-disc set.
Billy Joel	52nd Street	1978	Columbia	Mint	0.00	This 1998 reissue contains videos for "Big Shot," "Honesty" and "My Life."

Bloom, Luka	The Acoustic Motorbike	1992	Reprise	Excellent	0.00	I had always heard of Bloom, but figured he was some sort of offbeat folkie. Then I popped this disc into the player. Great stuff! Since I'm into Irish music, I wish I had checked him out sooner. I'm not crazy about Bloom's cover of L.L. Cool J's "I Need
Blue Band, The	Another Blue Christmas	1999	Hot Fudge Music	Mint	0.00	This is a great disc from the Iowa blues band.

Bolton, Michael	Greatest Hits 1985-1995	1995	Columbia	Mint	0.00	This is a good single-disc collection of hits. The only track that's missing is "Love is a Wonderful Thing." With the exception of the new song, "This River," all of these tracks are on the "Essential Michael Bolton" collection.

Buddy Guy	Sweet Tea	2002	Silvertone	Excellent	0.00
Buffett, Jimmy	Christmas Island	1996	Margaritaville/mca	Very Good	0.00	This is a fun disc that's a little bit traditional ("Jingle Bells," "Mele Kalikimaka") a little bit covers ("Happy Xmas (War is Over)") and a few new tracks ("A Sailor's Christmas," the title track). Worth a spin for the holidays. This disc is a promot
Candlebox	Best Of Candlebox, The	2006	Maverick	Mint	0.00	This is a great collection of the band's work. All of the hots are here and many key album cuts as well. The only thing missing is "Don't You."
Carlin, George	Occupation: Foole	1973	Atlantic	Good	0.00	This is Carlin' follow-up to "Class Clown," and as such, there is a carry-over of material. "Filthy Words" is a good routine that could be called "The Seven Words Part 2." The centerpiece of the album, are the five tracks Carlin spends on his youth ("Whit
Carlin, George	Free Complimentary Extra Bonus Disc Not For Sale	2001	Laugh.com	Very Good	0.00	This is a collection of odds and ends from Carlin's career, with the most interesting bits being the intro to his pre-stand-up radio show and a selection of bits recorded as a teenager. For fans only.

Cars, The	Shake It Up	1981	Elektra/asylum	Mint	0.00	This is another excellent album from my favorite 80's band. The title track was the big hit, but "Since You're Gone" reached the charts as well. Very chilly New Wave. Recommended.

Cheap Trick	At Budokan	1979	Epic/sony	Mint	0.00	Five bucks at Wal-Mart of this classic! It's not a budget release, and it contains all the original liner notes and packaging.

Cooper, Alice	Constrictor	1986	Mca	Mint	0.00	This album was the start of Alice's late-80's comeback. The Coop keeps things in a propulsive mode that fit right in with the hair metal of the day.

Darin, Bobby	Legendary Bobby Darin, The	2004	Capitol	Excellent	0.00	This is really "The Legendary Bobby Darin on Capitol," thus, no original versions of "Splish Splash," "Mack the Knife" or "Beyond the Sea" and "Dream Lover" doesn't appear at all. Darin's version of "If I Was a Carpenter" is here, however. And there are a
Davis, Miles	Best Of Miles Davis, The	2002	Columbia/legacy	Excellent	0.00	This single-disc compilation encompasses Davis' Columbia output. The sound is 24-bit remastered, and the liner notes consist of a couple of essays as full track information. One quibble: the tracks are not presented in chronological order.

Mamas And The Papas, The	Gold	2005	Geffen/universal	Excellent	0.00	This is great two-disc anthology of the band's hits. Everything is here, including almost all of their debut album. A nice essay is in the booklet, but the discographical information needs to have the chart positions included. Recommended.
Mannheim Steamroller	Christmas In The Aire	1995	American Gramaphone	Excellent	0.00	This is a great Christmas disc that is upbeat, contemporary, and not sappy.

Marley And The Wailers, Bob	Legend (deluxe Edition)	1984	Universal	Very Good	0.00	This is a two-disc version of the essential Bob Marley disc. The first disc the the original version of "Legend," with two addition tracks. Disc two are mild remixes of the big hits. There's nothing about this bonus material that is special, but the origi

Mcdermott, John	Remembrance	1999	Angel/emi Music Canada	Excellent	0.00	This concept album from the Canadian tenor is a collection of songs with the common theme of remembering veterans. Not so much of a Celtic sound on this disc, but it does show up from time to time. The booklet has a nice essay on veterans and the songs on
Mcdonald , Michael	Very Best Of Michael Mcdonald, The	2001	Warner/rhino	Mint	0.00	This is great collection of McDonald's solo hits. The accompanying booklet contains a nice essay with interviews as well as full track information. Recommended.
Me First And The Gimmie Gimmies	Collected Trax	2005		Good	0.00	This is a disc of all the songs I had of this band at the time, and covers their whole studio career, from "Have a Ball" to "Have Another Ball." Fun stuff.
Megadeth	Anthology: Set The World Afire	2008	Capitol	Mint	0.00	This is an excellent two-disc set spanning Megadeth's career. I would have liked to see the studio version of "Symphony of Destruction" included instead of a live rendition.
Mellencamp, John	Words And Music: John Mellencamp's Greatest Hits	2004	Island/universal	Excellent	0.00	This is a great , two-disc anthology that contains all of Mellencamp's hits. Recommended.
Mellencamp, John	Trouble No More	2003	Columbia	Mint	0.00	This is Mellencamp's blues album, though sound-wise it picked up right where "The Lonesome Jubilee" and "Big Daddy" left off. Recorded in just two weeks, the former Johnny Cougar and his band run through 12 covers. The tracks are primarily mid-tempo, acou

Miller Band, Steve	Greatest Hits 1974-78	1978	Capitol	Mint	0.00	I got this from the clearance bin at Walgreen's in Lynn for the low, low price of just $2.50. As it contains all of Miller's big hits (with the exceptions of "Livin' in the U.S.A." and "Abracadabra") it will be the only Steve Miller disc most fans will ev
Mint	American Style	2001	Planetary	Excellent	0.00	Not great, but not unlistenable. Mint's reach often exceeds it's grasp. Starting an album with "Also Sprach Zarathustra" is not a good idea, especially if you don't have the chops to pull it off. I don't know if the cover of Madonna's "Into the Groove" is

Moore, Sam	Overnight Sensational	2006	Rhino	Mint	0.00	This comeback album is an all-star affair, similar to Santana's "Supernatural," only not as good, and with no "Smooth" to anchor it. Produced by Randy Jackson, there are multiple guests on every track--far too many to list here. All of the songs are cover
Motley Crue	Greatest Hits	1998	Motley/beyond	Excellent	0.00	Contains ticket stub for the 10/21/98 show at Stephens Auditorium, Ames IA.

Navarro, Dave	Trust No One	2001	Capitol	Very Good	0.00	This is an excellent solo effort from Navarro. As he has not released a follow-up in nine years, one can assume that he prefers to be in a band. I would like to hear more from him, however.
Nelson And The Stone Canyon Band, Rick	Garden Party	1972	Mca	Mint	0.00	With the title track being Nelson's last hit, this album is a good mix of country rockers and mid-tempo ballads. There's a pounding version of Chuck Berry's "I'm Talking About You," and "Palace Guard" is a good disc-ender. Nice stuff.
Nelson, Willie	Ultimate 20: Pride Wins Again	2008	St. Clair	Mint	0.00	Another $5 selection from the CVS bargain bin, this one is a two-disc compilation of old Willie Nelson songs. The best one on here is probably "Night Life." But any Willie is good Willie, so there's nothing to complain about with this collection.
Nelson, Willie	Super Hits	1994	Sony/bmg	Mint	0.00	This is a budget compilation that hits all the high notes of from the mid-1970's to the early 1980's. Key for me is that it has Willie's version of "City of New Orleans."
Nelson, Willie	Always On My Mind	1982	Columbia/legacy	Mint	0.00	This is an excellent album. In addition to the title track, Willie covers "A Whiter Shade of Pale" with Waylon Jennings, "Let It Be Me," and even "Bridge Over Troubled Water." This 2003 reissue includes new liner notes and two previously unreleased bon
Nelson, Willie	Many Sides Of Willie Nelson, The	1992	Sony Music Special Products	Very Good	0.00	This is a good, three-disc collection of Willie's Hits. The album is divided up into "Easy," "Duets" and "Cowboy." Liner notes would be helpful, as there is no booklet to speak of. It's still recommended, however.
Nelson, Willie	Half Nelson	1985	Columbia	Very Good	0.00	This is a solid collection of Willie's duets, including "Pancho and Lefty" with Merle Haggard and "To All the Girls I've Loved Before" with Julio Iglesias. Surprisingly, there are no tracks featuring Waylon Jennings.
Nerf Herder	"van Halen"	1996	Arista	Fair	0.00	This is a promotional single for the band;s quasi-hit. The Star Wars font for the band's logo is fun. Although the disc itself in in excellent sonic condition, the top has been written on with a felt-tip pen.

New Radicals, The	Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too.	1998	Mca	Very Good	0.00	Their one and only album, it contains the hit "You Get What You Give."
Nickelback	Dark Horse	2008	Roadrunner	Very Good	0.00	As usual, Nickelback can't decide whether they want to write serious hard rock songs or be a dumb party band. The sleaze is done well with the stripper anthems "Something in Your Mouth" and "S.E.X.," but "Just to Get High" is a well-written tale of a seei
Nile	Annihilation Of The Wicked	2005	Relapse	Excellent	0.00
Nixons, The	Foma	1995	Mca	Excellent	0.00	A post-grunge hard rock disc from the band best known for the song "Sister." I'm pleased to report that the rest of the album is just as good, with the bulk of the disc leaning to a harder-rocking tone. The band sounds similar to the Screaming Trees.
No Room To Breathe	Demo 21010	2010		Mint	0.00	I got this three-track demo at the Hot Topic in Saugus. The Boston band is in the modern metal category and carries a distinct Tool/hardcore influence, much like New Hampshire's Till We Die. Worth checking out.

Nu Shooz	Poolside	1986	Atlantic	Excellent	0.00
Oasis	(what's The Story) Morning Glory?	1995	Epic	Very Good	0.00	How a band this is know for their drunken brawling can make such pretty music is beyond me.

Reo Speedwagon	Ridin' The Storm Out	1974	Sony	Mint	0.00	With Mike Murphy as the band's third singer in five years (Kevin Cronin would return a few years later), this album has a different vibe than most people expect from the band.

Reo Speedwagon	Good Trouble	1982	Epic/sony	Mint	0.00	This disc is the band's followup to "Hi Infidelity," which was a massive hit.
