This compilation, billed as a rarities collection, seems to be Island'. This compilation, billed as a rarities collection, seems to be Island's way of saying "who's got the talent now, bitches?" Or maybe not, but still - unreleased Thursday and Thrice tracks pretty much allow Island to school just about everyone else. Thursday's contribution, a cover of Sigur Ros' "Ny Batteri" is 6 minutes of sheer beauty - Geoff's voice has never sounded better than when he's just singing gibberish

Rarities Volume I & Volume II is a two-album series collecting songs by The Who, released in 1983 on Polydor in the United Kingdom. The very first release in this series was a single LP titled Join Together - Rarities issued by Polydor in Australia and New Zealand in 1982. It had the same contents as the later released Rarities Volume II with the exception of a shorter version of "I Don't Even Know Myself".

Volume 1 is the debut studio album by American alternative rock band CKY. Recorded at The Ground Hog Studios in Holland, Pennsylvania, it was produced, engineered and mixed by guitarist Chad I Ginsburg, and originally released on February 27, 1999 by Distant Recordings and Teil Martin International. Since its initial release under the title Camp Kill Yourself, the album has been reissued a number of times by various record labels with different titles and album covers.

Glenn A Baker compilation of sixties pop songs. Jewel case - some copies with sticker applied to the front : "Due to the unavailability of certain master recordings, slight surface noise may be evident on some tracks.

A compilation album comprises tracks, which may be previously released or unreleased, usually from several separate recordings by either one or several performers.

this is not an album. these are rarities once lost and now found. i dug them up out of thousands of nameless files and left the rest where they belong. some of these date all the way back to 2004 some cover ground with my first official releases in 2006, 2007 and others are shards between proper albums or EPs. a few show glimpses of what would come years later and almost all were abandoned or destroyed in self-destructive fits before they could be fully realized. this is some of the realist. where is, what about ? i do not have them. they were either lost in hard drive crashes or blatantly deleted at some point and are now beyond my reach. i spent months digging through thousands of nameless, corrupted and partially recovered files from old hard drives to find these. the rest are lost forever and, while i wish i.

Songs included on a compilation album may be previously released or unreleased, usually from several separate recordings by either one or several performers. Other single-artist compilations, such as rarities or B-side collections, albums compiled from radio sessions, songs performed by an artist exclusively for a film soundtrack or collections that combine multiple releases, such as LPs and EPs together on one or more compact discs. Many hip hop producers will release a compilation album which features various artists, but with each track composed by the same producer or it is under the same record label. For multi-artist compilations, royalties are usually pro-rated.

It’s nearly three years since the last volume of this respected series. The eye-opener on this new collection will be the previously unissued version of ‘I Only Cry Once A Day Now’, a superb Gene Page arrangement treasured by the Puffs on Doré but performed here by the mighty Fidels. Fellow Los Angeles vocal group the Hyperions contribute the catchy and exciting ‘Why You Wanna Treat Me The Way You Do’, and the Lon-Genes’ rare single ‘Dream Girl’ gives further kudos to that city’s soul reputation. In the crowded marketplace of northern soul compilations, the release of a new volume in Kent’s Classiest Rarities series still manages to turn the heartbeat up. For obsessive connoisseurs and occasional dabblers alike, this is as satisfying a soul collection as you’ll find.
