In that context, this 24-song CD from the U.K. constitutes the mother lode, at least until someone does a box (fat chance) on this satirical country-based rock group. Everything here dates between 1972 and 1974, and 21 of the songs are the work of the late Shel Silverstein, either solo or as a collaborator, so you know this is the real article and the distillation of the group's best classic work -- and the sound is good as well, the guitar, piano, bass, and brass getting lots of bite on "Queen of the Silver Dollar," the mocking lead guitar on "Cover of the Rolling Stone" crisp and bright, while the steel guitar is up close and personal on "Sylvia's Mother" like it never was on the radio. And the vocals were never more fun than they are here. This is best part of the group's entire output for the three years represented. If the two biggest hits don't do it for you, then "Hey, Lady Godiva" is worth the price of admission by itself, and the only crime is that there are no notes to tell of the background on these songs or the band or Silverstein. And the handful of non-Silverstein songs actually make a good contrast Track List 01 - Sylvia's mother [03:51] 02 - Queen of the silver dollar [04:42] 03 - Marie Lavaux [02:39] 04 - Cover of The Rolling Stone [02:50] 05 - The ballad of Lucy Jordan [03:54] 06 - Hey, Lady Godiva [02:18] 07 - Four years older than me [02:32] 08 - Makin' it natural [02:50] 09 - Freakin' at the freaker's [02:47] 10 - If I'd only come and gone [02:41] 11 - Carry me, Carrie [04:18] 12 - Penicillin Penny [02:49] 13 - Life ain't easy [03:02] 14 - Roland, the roadie and Gertrude, the groupie [03:01] 15 - Acapulco Goldie [02:19] 16 - When Lily was queen [02:26] 17 - Monterey Jack [01:14] 18 - You ain't got the right [03:28] 19 - Sing me a rainbow [02:31] 20 - Kiss it away [04:04] 21 - When she cries [03:02] 22 - Judy [03:42] 23 - I call that true love [03:00] 24 - Mama, I'll sing one song for you [02:36] Audio File Information, Properties And Specifications Artist / Group: Dr.Hook & The Medicine Show Genre: Rock / country / soft rock Album Release Year: 2000 Number of Tracks: 24 Total Duration: 72 Minutes ________________________________ Audio File Format: FLAC Lossless Codec Version: libFLAC 1.2.1 Encoding Bit Rate: 848 kbps (Average Bit Rate) Number of Audio Channels: 2 (Stereo) Audio Quality: 16bit / 44,100 KHz ________________________________ Audio File Source: Original CD Release Converter: EAC V1.0 beta 3 ________________________________ Audio File ID Tags: VorbisComment Included Artwork: (Embedded Artwork Within FLAC Files) Tag / Artwork Editor: Mp3tag v2.58 Additional Files: CUE Sheet, Log Sheet, MD5, FFP, and M3U Total File Size: 445 MB  PLEASE SEED - PLEASE SHARE - PLEASE UPLOAD  Related Torrents
