The only Iris you need own........2005-09-13
Okay so if you're trying to gap fill your album collection and you want good eighties new wave/punk this would be "the" one Iris CD to buy. "Why?" You say. Because A) it has Ah Leah (one of the many "anthems" of the day and an incredible sing/yell along song. If you know the title you most likely have a good memory attached to it as well. As for the rest? I think it important to note the editing/arrangement of songs is excellent and if you are out to hunt for hits alone, you will lose the flow by chosing the best hits/masters CD's. The Cd as a whole will give you a better "feel" of the music at time of release. B) Agnes is a great song and again, great to release some energy whilst singing along. "I can't hear you" has a chorus you will find yourself singing to to your kids and laughing.
All in all a fun and nice sounding set of songs. If you are looking for incredible instrument work or deep and poetically intense lyrics then look elsewhere. This is about fun, singing along, and raising your energy a bit. Just for fun play Red Riders "Lunatic Fringe" right after Leah. Enjoy !!!
Ah! Donnie Iris!.......2004-10-05
This is the Donnie Iris album that has "Ah Leah!" on it. Problem is, it was pretty rocky after that. Iris and partner Marc Avsec played everything on this album, and it comes off a bit too stiff. Also, there is too much going on here to make Iris sound like he was doing much else other than chasing styles. Aside from "Agnes" and "I Can't Hear You," there is little here that sounds like an artist defining himself. (Nonsense like "Joking/Shock Treatment" don't help his case, either.) Besides, after this, Iris put together the Cruisers and cut the far superior "King Cool." Since the three best songs on "Back On The Streets" are on the "20th Century Masters" set, you can steer yourself in that direction rather than pay for the over-priced used copies.
Amazing album.......2003-03-19
This album is outdone only by the next album 'King Cool' and that takes quite some doing to out do this album but 'King Cool' is in my top 5 of all time. 'Back on the Streets is easily in the top 15.
It was 'Love is like a rock' that converted me into a die hard Donnie Iris fan, of course that song is on the next album, but Ah leah played a major part to.
Id say the 3 weakest songs on this album(I can't hear you, Back on the streets, and Daddy don't live here) are still better then average meaning the other 7 are great. the 2 that stand out for me are 'She's so wild' and 'You're only dreaming' but only slightly over Agness, Ah Leah, Shock Treatment, and Too Young to love. Joking is another very good song but not quite up there with previousely mentioned. No fillers at all.
Undiscovered Gem- what a great album- front to back........2003-01-01
"Ah! Leah!" is the song that got my attention. At a time when REO speedwagon seemed to dominate the airwaves, this HUGE rockin' power ballad stood out as something unique.
"I Can't Hear You," "Joking," and "Shock Treatment" are lyrically brilliant- (although at times very eighties).
"Back on the Streets," is a Springsteen-esque ballad that is as good as or better than any Springsteen epic.
"Agnes," is a great "story" that builds as it goes- unforgettable.
"You're Only Dreaming," "She's So Wild (amazing rocker)," and "Daddy Don't Live Here Anymore" revisits some ot the quirkiness and silliness of trackes 2,3, and 4.
"Too Young to Love," just hurts when you listen to it.
Iris has tapped into the very ache of love and desire on a lot of this album and it leaves you with an unforgettable experience. Kick back and listen to all of this at once. You won't regret it.
Memories.......2001-08-15
This albumn brings back those memories of college in the early 80's. This CD is great from start to finish. A must buy for any Donnie Iris fan. The problem is that there are no longer albumns, only CD's. There are still some Donnie Iris albums that need to be made into CD's.

THE BEST MELODIC PUNK ALBUM EVER MADE.......2004-01-04
Folks, it doesn't get much better than this. Simply put, 88 Fingers Louie was one of the finest bands in the genre, and this is clearly their best work. This album covers all the bases, giving you hardcore songs like "State" and "Worst Man Won", pop-punk tunes like "Summer Photos" and "Joyboy", and straight melodic punk with "Two-Faced Bastard" and "Admission". This is by far my favorite 88FL record, and without a doubt, one of the best albums in my collection. Unfortunately, this was 88 Fingers Louie's final full length album, but you can find its former members in bands such as Rise Against, Undercast, and Break the Silence. Well, I guess that just about sums up my review, so go out and get this album!
Unbelievable album.......2003-12-13
This album is one of the top punk albums of all time. I loved it when it first came out, but even 5 years after the fact this album continues to absolutely rock. The drumming is absolutely jaw dropping, and the tone Mr. Precision got out of his guitar on this album is amazing. Every song rocks.
A hell of a going away present.......2000-12-13
88 Fingers Louie are...or I suppose were, Back on the Streets. Yes, while one of the greatest hardcore bands of all time has once again broken up, they leave with a awesome last album. In the time since they last broke up, they haven't lost their edge at all! The songs are a little more melodic, but not to the point where they're [sappy]. This is as good, if not better than any of their previous albums, I would definately reccommend it if you're a fan, and if you aren't, get it anyway. This is the best hardcore to come out in a long time, and probably will stay that way for a while.
mmm hmmm.......2000-09-25
very original. i'm not going to compare these guys to any other band, simply because there are no other bands like 88 fingers louie. the lyrics will blow you away. (since you're already online, why don't you search for this album's lyrics?) the music's awesome. the whole album's great. and i mean the whole album.
Great Album!!.......1999-07-15
88 Fingers Louie did a Great job with this album!! It's easily as good as "behind Bars" A great Cd to pick up whether your a fan, or just like punk music.

Sounds too fake for TOP. Very Uninspiring.......2003-10-24
I know Tower of Power can put out better albums than this. The first track, Rock Baby, would make me feel embarassed if someone caught me listening to it. Not a good way to start off the album, but the tracks due get progressively better towards the end. My favorite tracks are Nowhere to Run and Just Make a Move (And Be Yourself). These two at least have some energy to them and save the album from a one star rating. Overall I think the album was overproduced and sounds too comercial and fake, but it has its moments.
Oh My God.......2001-12-05
this is the only album I've ever heard that has left me physically, mentally, and emotionally injured. I plead with you, avoid this album at all costs! Stick to TOPs Warner Brothers output or their 90s stuff, just stay away from this!!!
Arguably Tower Of Power's Worst Album.......2001-06-03
If you love Tower Of Power, as I do, you should pick this up for the 4 good songs: "Rock Baby", "And You Know It", "It Takes Two (To Make It Happen)" and "Just Make A Move (And Be Yourself)". After these 4 songs, the rest is fairly awful. Michael Jeffries, the vocalist on this album, does a splendid job as the latest in a revolving door of lead singers for the group.
Break out the polyester!.......1999-11-13
Oh man. Say it ain't so. Thank goodness this wasn't the first album of theirs I checked out. I would have written it off as another insipid "let's hire some horns to back up our bubble gum groove" effort so prevalent in music of the lte 70's. This stuff definitely has a disco flavor, with the cheesy additions of strings. It is gathering dust in my CD rack.
awesome horn section with gritty vocals.......1999-01-14
By far this group epitomises the great Bay area funk scene of the 70's. With Cold Blood, Mandrill, and the Doobies, Tower of Power added to Santana's dominance of funk, soul, blues and rock fusion groups that will never be matched.

Warning!.......2006-10-10
The picture shows Gary Moore's 1978 album 'Back on the Streets'. What Amazon is selling is quite different - a compilation of his solo rock stuff. Don't order this thinking you'll get the 78 album - it's just not available yet.

Customer Reviews:
Speed King.......2001-04-25
If blindingly fast guitar 70's style is to your liking, this is the cd for you."Back on the Streets" begins with a good solid rocker title track and takes off from there on a journey through several musical styles that Gary manages to master one and all."Don't Believe A Word" is a great bluesy tune more in common with the material he is now best known for.Three songs in the middle find Gary tackling jazz fusion stuff very remeniscent of the Jeff Beck / Jan Hammer collaborations of the same time period. You might even think of Al DiMeola circa "Elegant Gypsy"."Song For Donna" has some sweet mellow tones and worth the price of admission alone is the original studio version of "Parisienne Walkways" with lead vocals by Phil Lynott with Gary doing backup vox.Absolutely fantastic! This cd is a must have for completists and anyone interested in the evolution of one of the best guitarists of this or any other era.I would have given the disc 5 stars except for the inclusion of the song "Fanatical Fascists", which is probably the worst song Gary Moore has associated himself with.( Italian mustaches?)Otherwise a superb recording.
gary moore plays fusion - meltdown baby!.......1999-07-01
Without a doubt some of Gary's best work is contained on this CD. "Don't Believe a Word" and "What Would You Rather Bee or Wasp" highlite Gary's trademark sound - a melding of blues, jazz and rock in a way that sounds both seamless and timeless. Mr. Moore has sent many a guitarist (myself included) back to the woodshed. But don't think of this as music for musicians... strong melodies (think "Parisian Walkways" here) have always been a hallmark of Gary's style and this CD is the rule, not the exception. I heartily recommend this selection... you won't be dissapointed.
