 The Band
The Band's wonderful, acoustic and laid-back album "Jubilation" was released in September 1998 and was to be their last, as the three original members finally went their separate ways.
Upon moving to Hollywood, The Band began recording their second LP, a self-titled masterpiece issued in 1969; a commercial success as well as a critical favourite, both "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" and "Up On Cripple Creek" became FM radio favourites, and established Robertson among the greatest songwriting talents of his generation.
The Band's first headlining tour followed, with life on the road subsequently becoming the subject of 1970's "Stage Fright", which sacrificed the focus on history and myth so prevalent on the first two records in favour of a more contemporary vantage point.

This album is The Band's and one of music's greatest albums of all time.
Given the high standard established by The Band and its better-still 1968 predecessor, Music from Big Pink, it's not surprising the Band peaked early as a recording group.
I have this album, but since I also own To Kingdom Come, the ultimate Band album, and Stage Fright (and all their other albums) I play this album infrequently, but still enjoy it.

 SOUTHERN crass
Love Songs collects the lyrics and poems of anarchist band Crass; a band which, though largely bypassed by the mainstream music business, sold over a million records from its own staunchly independent label, and inspired a massive underground following from 1977 – 1984.
And although many will remember the Crass sound as being ’unlistenable cacophony’ and their lyrics as ’shock slogans and mindless token tantrums’ (copyright: The Sun), listen to these records now and what you hear may surprise you, as what went on the studio was actually quite revolutionary in more than just the political sense.
At the centre of their philosophy were themes of free thought, enthusiasm, creativity, ingenuity, peace, and yes, love – a radical standpoint for a band set within the generally nihilistic context of punk rock.

 Pitchfork: Daily Music News
The band has finished recording the aforementioned album and are preparing to mix it as we speak, and their recently relaunched website has confirmed the tracklist.
The record is much more bracing and straightforward than Can's later work-- with Mooney yowling nonsense (for the most part) over acid-tweaked garage-rock-- although it showcases the band's Teo Macero-esque approach to recording: jam for hours and edit the highlights into songs and albums.
While the name The Band may have seemed pretentious in other hands, the individual artistry of members Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Richard Manuel, and Garth Hudson came together to form a true musical brotherhood that depended on each individual to carry the musical weight.

If one subtracts the already available remastered tracks from the Band's albums, and the bonus tracks included on those remaster editions, there is approximately one CD's worth of interesting material here.
Chances are if you love the band's music, this project will be of interest, but whether it merits spending $80 depends on how much disposable income one has; my feeling is that this is a ponderous, redundant reissue with no as yet unheard quintessential moments.
On that list you’ll find everything from early versions of Band tunes to "song sketches" (pieces for which the lyrics may have been unfinished, but, as in the case of the late Richard Manuel& soulful "Beautiful Thing," the emotion is captured just the same.
