Billie Holiday- The Complete Masters: 1933-1959, Disc 13 (2011)- ***1/2
Alex North/Ray Heindorf Orchestra- A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)- ****
Bob Dylan- Supper Club, 11/16/93: Second Show (1993)- **1/2
(Four songs was enough. I always forget that as wonderful as the band was, and as terrific as the recording is, and as cool as the set lists were, Dylan's vocals were unbearable.)
Simon & Garfunkel- Greatest Hits (1972)- ****
Bebel Gilberto- Tanto Tempo (2000)- ****
Siouxsie & The Banshees- The Scream (1978)- ***1/2
Kirsty MacColl- Kite: Bonus Disc (1989/2025)- ***1/2
Sugar Pie DeSanto- Use What You Got: Complete Singles, 1957-1974 (2021)- ****
The Darkness- One Way Ticket To Hell...And Back: 20th Anniv. Plus Bonus Tracks (2005/2025)- ****
(The debut gets all of the kudos, but this is a better record. The Darkness is a hard sell over at Burning Wood, as is most hard rock and heavy metal, though I think there are at least a half dozen readers who love this band as much as I do. These guys are hook machines. Justin Hawkins is hilarious, and always smart. There is more than meets the ear...here.)
Joan Jett- Bad Reputation: Personal Edit (1980/2024)- ***1/2

That Kite bonus disc contains one of my favorite Kirsty songs- Other People's Hearts... My song of the day on many days.
