Various Artists – Crucial Harmonica Blues $7.2 Performers include: Junior Wells, James Cotton, Delbert McClinton, Carey Bell, Charlie Musselwhite, Little Charlie & The Nightcats, Sugar Blue, Sonny Terry, Cephas & Wiggins.Photographer: Dave Leucinger.One of three simultaneously released budget-priced Alligator blues compilations (the other two are Crucial Guitar Blues and Crucial Chicago Blues), Crucial Harmonica Blues is a 12-track anthology of the Chicago-based label`s most popular and legendary harp artists. The track list reads like a who`s who of harmonica with James Cotton, Big Walter Horton, Charlie Musselwhite, Carey Bell, Billy Boy Arnold, and Sonny Terry all contributing a track apiece. The tunes cover the years from 1972-2002 (practically spanning the label`s existence) as well as a variety of blues settings. Acoustic Piedmont style is handled by Cephas & Wiggins with an instrumental showcase called "Burn Your Bridges" that proves non-amplified playing can be just as fiery as the electric approach favored by the majority of these artists. Those who enjoy speed over emotion can latch onto Sugar Blue`s lip-shredding attack on "One More Mile to Go," or William Clarke`s husky playing on the appropriately titled "Blowin` Like Hell." A jazzier West Coast style is exemplified by Little Charlie & the Nightcats` "Coastin` Hank," a showpiece for the great Rick Estrin. "Broke and Hungry" from the label`s 1990 Harp Attack! showcase features both Junior Wells and Billy Branch. Liner notes only advertise the albums these tunes are culled from and the lack of personnel is a significant omission even if this is a budget-priced release. As a sampler though, this is an effective way to taste the label`s harp roster and should introduce all but hardcore fans to names they might not have known before. ~ Hal Horowitz Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.

Various Artists – Crucial Guitar Blues $7.2 Performers include: Luther Allison, Albert Collins, Lonnie Mack, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Johnny Winter, Roy Buchanan, Coco Montoya, Little Charlie & The Nightcats, "Gatemouth" Brown.Personnel: Bob DePugh, Bruce Iglauer (sampler).Photographer: Dave Leucinger.One of three simultaneously released, budget-priced Alligator blues compilations (the other two are Crucial Chicago Blues and Crucial Harmonica Blues), Crucial Guitar Blues is a 12-track, hour-long anthology of some of the hottest guitarists in the label`s extensive catalog. Although the word "electric" is not featured in the title, this is definitely a plugged-in affair. Kicking off with Luther Allison`s intense "All the King`s Horses," the track list of Albert Collins ("Lights Are on but Nobody`s Home"), Johnny Winter ("I Smell Trouble"), Roy Buchanan ("Country Boogie"), and Son Seals ("I Can`t Hear Nothing but the Blues") is a roller-coaster ride through Alligator`s marquee names. Lonnie Mack with Stevie Ray Vaughan charging through a breathless, self-explanatory "Double Whammy" adds even more firepower, and even the pace-changing, jaunty swing of Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown`s instrumental "Pressure Cooker" that closes the disc maintains the fast-fret theme that is the album`s calling card. Little Charlie & the Nightcats add some West Coast groove with their instrumental "Percolatin`," but generally tougher blues like Tinsley Ellis` "The Devil for a Dime" dominate. Oddly, there are no tracks from Alligator`s two most celebrated guitar albums, Lone Star Shootout and the Grammy-winning Showdown with Albert Collins, Robert Cray, and Johnny Copeland slinging it out. Unfortunately, liner notes are MIA, as are detailed personnel listings for each track. Blurbs describing the albums the songs are picked from are more advertisements than informative, but that doesn`t diminish the non-stop power and excitement of this excellent set. ~ Hal Horowitz Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.

Various Artists – Crucial Chicago Blues $7.2 Performers include: Koko Taylor, Hound Dog Taylor, Luther Allison, Junior Wells, James Cotton, Lonnie Brooks, Son Seals, Lil` Ed, Pinetop Perkins, Magic Slim.Unknown Contributor Role: Koko Taylor.One of three simultaneously released, budget-priced Alligator blues compilations (the other two are Crucial Guitar Blues and Crucial Harmonica Blues), Crucial Chicago Blues is a 12-track anthology of the Chicago-based label`s hometown artists. Harp players such as Carey Bell, James Cotton, and Junior Wells share space with guitarists Fenton Robinson, Magic Slim, Son Seals, and Lonnie Brooks, who nearly steals the show with his solo on a live "Cold Lonely Nights." Muddy Water`s pianist, Pinetop Perkins, is the only keyboard entry and oldest performer. In fact, the album should put "contemporary" in its title, since the classic blues performers most fans associate with Chicago — such as Otis Rush, Muddy Waters, and Howlin` Wolf — were never Alligator artists and hence are not included. Regardless, this is a formidable lineup, with the tough Chicago guitar sound well-represented by Magic Slim and Luther Allison. Both Little Ed & the Blues Imperials and Hound Dog Taylor (the label`s first signing) tear into slide-guitar boogie, with the latter`s "Take Five" a sizzling example of the kind of unbridled, house-rocking music that Alligator staked its early reputation on. At 50 minutes, though, this is on the short side for a sampler. That, along with the lack of liner notes (other than mini-advertisements for the albums these cuts are from) and specific track information are in keeping with the budget price. Still, it`s difficult for blues fans not to enjoy all of what is here. Both purists and new listeners will find this a worthy collection of some of Chicago`s and Alligator`s most essential artists. ~ Hal Horowitz Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.

Various Artists – Crucial Reggae: Dub $9.01 This rather brief selection of dub mixes seems rather hastily tossed together, and while there is one undisputed masterpiece here, Augustus Pablo`s "King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown," and a couple of other interesting tracks, including "Dub Belly" from Scientist and one of Lee "Scratch" Perry`s heavier-sounding early dub mixes, "Dubbing in the Backseat," most of what is here is on the arbitrary and perfunctory side of things. While it might be fine as an introduction to this Jamaican subgenre for someone who had never heard of it before, this compilation is really too short and sketchy to be even a cursory history of dub. At the very least, it certainly isn`t "crucial." ~ Steve Leggett Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.

This Is Crucial Reggae $9.98 Peter Broggs specializes in old-school roots and culture reggae, and if his songs frequently seem a bit derivative, and his vocals more than occasionally pitch-challenged, he mostly overcomes it by his complete Rastafarian sincerity and general hopefulness, traits that were often in short supply in Jamaica during the dancehall-dominated 1980s. This Is Crucial Reggae collects a dozen tracks from his various Ras releases, including the ganja-growing song that has given Broggs his nickname, “International Farmer.” It’s hard not to like the guy, and songs like “Four Hundred Years” and “Cool Down,” although neither is strikingly original, have a sincere, searching tone that put them over in spite of their shortcomings. Die-hard fans will already have everything here, but curious first-time listeners might find This Is Crucial Reggae the perfect place to start to sample what Broggs has to offer. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide

The Crucial Collection $10.99 Prior to the release of 2007’s full-length debut This Is Animal Music, Tallahassee indie rockers Look Mexico released a pair of EPs, 2005’s So Byzantine and 2006’s Crucial, which are gathered here alongside a number of alternative versions and remixes of songs from the album, as well as a pair of otherwise hard to find tracks. As the number of songs that appear on both the EPs and the debut full-length attest, there was no major change in musical direction between the EPs and the album: This Is Animal Music is basically a better-sounding and slightly more polished version of the EPs’ blend of Minus the Bear-style whimsy, post-rocky technical facility, and emo-tinged indie rock earnestness. Similarly, the three alternate versions of album tracks at the collection’s end — “Done and Done,” “You Ever Get Punched in the Face for Talking Too Much?,” and “You Come into My House, While I Sleep?” — are not radical revisions so much as they’re minor tweaks. Oddly, despite its relatively brief running time and claims of definitiveness, The Crucial Collection is not entirely complete: two of the six tracks from So Byzantine, “Comin’ in Hot with a Side of Bacon” and a brief early version of the album’s “I Had a Wrench, and I Hit Him,” are missing. Crucial? Only for the diehard, particularly since both EPs are available through various online services in their original form. But it’s a handy one-stop discography builder for the minor fan. ~ Stewart Mason, RoviPerformers: Matt Agrella – Marimba, Percussion, Trombone, Trumpet, Zheng; Ryan Slate – Piano

Various Artists – Crucial Live Blues $7.2 Performers include: Koko Taylor, Albert Collins, Luther Allison, Hound Dog Taylor, Delbert McClinton, Lonnie Mack, Son Seals, James Cotton.Personnel: Bob DePugh, Bruce Iglauer (sampler).Blues, like jazz, is often at its most striking in a live setting, where the interplay between the musicians and the feedback from the audience serves to push things to a high edge. This explosive collection from Alligator Records gathers 13 live tracks from an assortment of players, and there really isn`t a slack cut here. Koko Taylor`s "Going Back to Iuka" lyrically deals with a kind of resigned retreat back home, but Taylor delivers the song with such sass that it sounds more like a powerfully triumphant statement. Delbert McClinton pulls off the same trick with "Going Back to Louisiana," and in a different way, so does Son Seals as he turns desperation into a moral victory in "Call My Job." The closing track is the absolute steamroller, though, as the late Hound Dog Taylor blasts his way through a loose-kneed version of Robert Johnson`s (by way of Elmore James) "Dust My Broom" with all the subtlety of a locomotive headed for a cliff with a drunk and passed-out brakeman and the throttle stuck wide open. ~ Steve Leggett Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.

Various Artists – Crucial Texas Blues $7.2 Performers include: Marcia Ball, Delbert McClinton, Albert Collins, Johnny Winter, "Gatemouth" Brown, Johnny Copeland, W.C. Clark, Katie Webster, Long John Hunter, C.J. Chenier.Photographer: Terrence Bert.Opening with the ageless Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown`s "She Walks Right In" and continuing through the ferocious duel guitars of Johnny Copeland and Albert Collins on "Lion`s Den," the Fats Domino-like stroll of Katie Webster and Lonnie Brooks on "Those Lonely, Lonely Nights," and the funky "Standing on Shaky Ground" by Delbert McClinton, this sampler of Texas players on the Alligator Records roster shows a surprising diversity of approaches to contemporary blues. An obvious highlight here is "Richest Man" by East Texan C.J. Chenier, a slow, simmering ballad that hints at zydeco with its well-placed horns and accordions, but ends up being pure blues when all is said and done. All in all, this is a decent sampler of Alligator`s wares, with enough sameness to feel like the tracks belong together, and enough difference to keep things fresh. ~ Steve Leggett Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.

Various Artists – More Crucial Guitar Blues [5/22] $7.2 Personnel: Bob DePugh, Bruce Iglauer (sampler).Photographer: Paul Natkin.This wide-ranging sampler from the venerable Chicago blues label Alligator Records features tracks by some of the genre`s foremost artists, including the Texas blues of Albert Collins, W.C. Clark, and Long John Hunter, veteran Chicago musicians such as Lonnie Brooks and Luther Allison, and younger performers such as the Arkansas musician Michael Burks and the Buffalo guitarist Lucky Peterson.

Various Artists – Crucial Slide Guitar Blues $7.2 Performers include: Johnny Winter, Luther Allison, Sonny Landreth, A.C. Reed, Bonnie Raitt, Corey Harris, Hound Dog Taylor, Elvin Bishop, Dave Hole, Lil` Ed.Photographers: Jack Lardomita; Peter Amft.Alligator has a justifiable reputation as one of the premier blues labels, and it draws on its recorded resources for this compilation. There`s certainly no doubting the quality of the players and the music here, from Johnny Winter to the late Hound Dog Taylor, whose raw style sears the ears on Elmore James` "The Sun Is Shining." An older Corey Harris track reminds people that he`s a remarkable acoustic slide player, and Sonny Landreth`s "Taylor`s Rock," from a Hound Dog Taylor tribute, features him playing no less than four parts, and still injecting plenty of grease. Australian Dave Hole remains a bit of a secret, but on the basis of this, deserves wider exposure. And if there`s an odd man out here, it`s A.C. Reed, who doesn`t even play guitar. But he`s joined by someone who does, Bonnie Raitt, and she lays down some wonderful work on "She`s Fine." Elsewhere, there`s Elvin Bishop, Luther Allison, and Lil` Ed among the suspects, with everyone making sure that the listener has a rockin` good time and confirming that the art of slide guitar is alive and well. ~ Chris Nickson Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.

Various Artists – Crucial Acoustic Blues [5/22] $7.2 Photographer: Paul Natkin.This selection of acoustic blues from Chicago`s Alligator Records features many rare recordings from such blues legends as Buddy Guy and Junior Wells, heard here together in an intimate 1991 performance of "High Heel Sneakers," the big-voiced Koko Taylor accompanied by the guitarist Keb Mo` on "The Man Next Door," and the Carolina musician Sonny Terry, joined here by Johnny Winter and Willie Dixon on the Winter-produced country blues "So Tough With Me."

Dorothea Lange: The Crucial Years $34.78 Text by Oliva Maria Rubio, Sandra Philips, Jack von Euw.In 1935, the photographer Dorothea Lange joined Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Farm Security Administration project, charged with the task of inventing an iconography that would record and convey the tales of Depression-era America. It was a task that forced Lange’s photography to evolve from its then portrait-based character, as she stepped out into the streets to document the woes of the Great Depression, thus creating what is today her most legendary body of work. Gathering powerful images of displaced farmers, sharecroppers and migrant workers (such as the classic Migrant Mother) with her Graflex camera, Lange put a human face to this difficult era, and revolutionized documentary photography. She obtained results without forcing them, instead just sitting down on the ground with people, letting children look at your camera with their dirty, grimy little hands, and putting their fingers on the lens, and you just let them, because you know that if you will behave in a generous manner, you are apt to receive it. The Decisive Years surveys the various topics that Lange approached throughout the 1930s and 1940s, with an important selection of her work for the War Relocation Authority (on the evacuation and relocation of the American citizens of Japanese origin)–only a few of which have ever been reproduced in catalogues–and her documentations of farmers’ communities in California and Arizona, and the Conference of the United Nations in San Francisco.brDorothea Lange was born in Hoboken, New Jersey, in 1895. In 1941, Lange was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship for excellence in photography. She was a co-founder of Aperture magazine.
