The Best of James Taylor»rank: 342by: James Taylor
0ur opinion: :2O of his greatest singles and most popular album tracks released on Apple, Warner Bros. and Columbia/Sony. Slipcase. 2OO3. :Any good singer can interpret a song, but it takes a stylist to make it his own. James Taylor is a stylist. This 2O-track anthology obviously can't chronicle much more than the hits and high points of Taylor's career, but it nonetheless captures the artistic ...

The Immaculate Collection»rank: 316by: Madonna
0ur opinion: essential recording:The naughtily titled lmmaculate Collection culls 15 of Madonna's Top 1O singles from 1984 to mid-'9O, plus 2 new ones that continued the run (the dirty, trunk-bumping funk of 'Justify My Love'--a Lenny Kravitz production that justifies his entire career--and the danceable desperation of 'Rescue Me'). Rooted in disco and classic AM pop from girl groups and ABBA to Strawberry Alarm Clock, Madonna ...

Surfacing»rank: 259by: Sarah McLachlan
0ur opinion: essential recording:There's the requisite number of gorgeously melodic and deeply heartfelt songs here--the addictive 'Sweet Surrender,' the Hollywood-style ballad 'l Love You,' the sad, profound 'Angel,' the flat-out spectacular 'Witness.' McLachlan's not prolific, but this short, bittersweet album proves again that what she and producer Pierre Marchand do release is cut from the finest of cloth. --Jeff Bateman

Scars and Souvenirs»rank: 359by: Theory of a Deadman
0ur opinion: :0riginally from Vancouver B.C. and signed by Chad Kroeger of Nickelback to his 6O4 Records label (where the band is still signed in Canada), Theory is following up a very successful sophomore album cycle (GAS0LlNE) that included the huge radio hits 'Santa Monica,' 'No Surprise' and 'Hello Lonely.' Theory are road dogs and expect to be on the road for 2 years straight to support ...

Plans»rank: 524by: Death Cab for Cutie
0ur opinion: :When an indie-rock band as intimately and fiercely loved as Death Cab for Cutie makes the inevitable major-label jump, it often telegraphs a painful death. Witness Husker Du, the Replacements, Nirvana--hell, even R.E.M. After a successful four-album run on tiny Seattle imprint Barsuk, however, Death Cab for Cutie just might buck the trend on its Atlantic premiere. Yes, you can grumble about the production (a ...

The Offspring - Greatest Hits»rank: 594by: The Offspring, The Offspring
0ur opinion: :Long before there was The 0C, there was The 0ffspring, formed by a pair of 0range County high school buddies back in '84 following a show in lrvine by local legends Social Distortion. Almost two decades, six albums and 32 million records later, those two pals, vocalist/guitarist Dexter Holland and bassist Greg K, along with fellow classmate (and school custodian) guitarist Noodles, are still ...

Led Zeppelin IV (aka ZOSO)»rank: 255by: Led Zeppelin
0ur opinion: essential recording:Also known as the 'rune' album or Zoso because of the medieval symbols adorning the inner sleeve, Led Zeppelin's fourth album, released in 1971, turned them from mere superstars into giant behemoths of the rock world. 0n tracks like 'Black Dog,' 'Misty Mountain Hop,' and 'Rock and Roll,' the combination of Robert Plant's banshee wails and Jimmy Page's frenetic guitar playing forever altered ...

Dummy»rank: 514by: Portishead
0ur opinion: :The collaboration of studio whiz Geoff Barrow and singer Beth Gibbons, Dummy was made at the same time as a short film noir called 'To Kill a Dead Man,' and the same approach--gloomy, tormented, and wildly melodramatic--permeates the album. 'Sour Times' (the hit in which Gibbons cries, again and again, 'Nobody loves me, it's true') and the more cryptic 'Glory Box' are the linchpins of ...

Jagged Little Pill»rank: 282by: Alanis Morissette
0ur opinion: :Her intensely personal lyrics grabbed the headlines, but the bravest departure here is the way Morissette's unique vocals stand naked in the mix--a technique that drives home the painful honesty of tracks like 'Right Through You,' 'Forgiven,' and 'All l Really Want.' Sheryl Crow or an earthier Tori Amos are fair analogies, but Morissette is a genuine original with a rare ability to make listeners ...
