Box sets
To celebrate her nearly 15 years playing on the fringes of the music business, Tori Amos and Rhino Records have created her first five-CD box set. Not only do fans hear such famous Amos works as "Silent All These Years," "Winter," "Cornflake Girl" and "Lust," but remixes of "Cruel," "Playboy Mommy," "Bliss" and alternate mixes of "Precious things," "Crucify," "Flying Dutchman," "Caught a Lite Sneeze" and "Mother." Previously unreleased treasures include "Dolphin Song," "Peeping Tommi" and "Not David Bowie," along with a piano-keyboard box cover and a 60-page book. Scott Iwasaki
LOUIS ARMSTRONG; "The Wonderful World of Louis Armstrong" (Time Life) ****
THE BEE GEES; "The Studio Albums 1967-1968" (Rhino) *** 1/2
A decade before the phenomenal "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack, the Bee Gees were just another British group hitting the United States, doing Beatle-esque '60s pop. Barry, Robin and the late Maurice Gibb had a knack for catchy hooks and lyrics that stuck in the mind. This box set features extended versions of the trio's first three albums, along with extensive bonus features. Songs include "New York Mining Disaster 1941," "I Started a Joke," "Massachusettes," "To Love Somebody" and alternate takes on certain songs, along with "All My Christmases Came at Once," "Come Some Christmas Eve or Halloween" and a medley of "Silent Night/Hark the Herald Angels Sing." Good pre-'70s collection. S.I.
BIG BILL BROONZY; "Amsterdam Live Concerts 1953" (Munich) ***
