  Squeeze - Music Downloads - Online
By the time the album was released in the spring of 1978, the group and A&M had abandoned the record's working title, and it was released as Squeeze.
In America, the band and album had to change their name to UK Squeeze, in order to avoid confusion with an American band called Tight Squeeze; by the end of the year, they had reverted back to Squeeze in the U.S..
Released in the September of 1993, the album became a moderate British hit, debuting at number 26; it was ignored in the U.S..

The album that would have a song to touch everyone across the board: the dope boyz in the trap, the hoes in the shake, the radio PD’s with no ear to the street, and the suits in corner offices in the major label skyscrapers.
The first half of the album is smooth and captivating, but near the end, the tracks tend to lose focus.
The album starts off really slow with an eight-minute extended version of “Southside Da Realist.” I know things tend to be a little more laidback in Texas, but a song that long is a bit too laid back to kick off the album.

The album starts off with a bang with "What you got?" where Chino challenges any MC, while spitting at a rapid fire pace like his life depended on it.

This album is indeed the album that Chino XL fans have been waiting for since his debut album dropped.

The second album, released in September on Atlantic Records, sold 80,000 copies compared to the 210,000 notched up by their 2004 debut, Greatest Hits.
"The second album hasn't sold as well as the first and that is the reason they don't want to continue with us, but we are probably in a stronger position than ever," said Mr Dodds.
He said the group wanted to buy the rights to the second album from Atlantic and re-release it on their own label.

 Songwriter Says Columbia Dropped Her in Fight Over Album - New York Times
Nellie McKay, a young singer-songwriter whose 2004 album, "Get Away From Me," was one of the most acclaimed pop debuts in recent years, says she has been dropped by Columbia Records just as her follow-up was scheduled to reach stores.
McKay had been fighting with the label over her insistence on a 23-song, 65-minute version of the album; Columbia was pressing for a 16-song, 48-minute version.
Spin magazine called the 21-year-old artist "a sharp-eared satirist" and said the album was "not only a testament to McKay's talent, it's also a tribute to her artistic sense." In a four-star review, Blender described Ms.

 Amazon.com: Red Gone Wild: Thee Album: Music: Redman   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The Album" was released in 1992 and I still remember the cassette maxisingle that I purchased when I was in high school that had 2 versions of his first single, "Blow Your Mind" and another track, "How To Roll A Blunt".
A full six years since his last LP, Redman finally dropped what is probably hip hop's most delayed album not named "Dretox." "Red Gone Wild: Thee Album" is a completely refreshing, hilarious, and satisfying release from a hip hop legend that totally stands tall even when compared to his 90s classics.
It wouldn't be a great Redman album without Soopaman Luva, and he appears in all his greatness on the album's last songs.

 ART 002: Assignment 5   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Most rock bands born in the early nineties grunge era have vanished because they could not maintain a high enough level of originality, but one band born in the that era has successfully made the transition into the new millennium.
That album included "Alive", a song from the tape that Eddie wrote lyrics to before he had joined the band.
Their songs have gotten noticeably slower with each album and that may be contributed to the increasing age of the band.

Although AZ blazed every verse HE dropped, the album itself was disappointing, and it seemed as though he was labeled guilty by association.
And when that album finally dropped, it was considered an underachieving album and received very little praise.
While AZ still hasn't completely fulfilled his potential, this album is definetly a step in the right direction; in my opinion it's the best (major label) one he's released.

Cincinnati, OH Former Drill singer and KMFDM diva Lucia Cifarelli was dropped by Universal Records 3 weeks before her debut album From The Land Of Volcanoes was to be released on May 15, 2003.
Unofficially, rumors speculate she was dropped because radio stations so much as ignored her debut single "So Clever." No airplay, no coverage, no profit = no reason to keep her around.
Now she's shopping around labels trying to get the album out of her own accord, but it doesn't seem like it will be released any time in the forseeable future.

 Shipping News: Flies the Fields - PopMatters Music Review
Built on a repetitive and slowly shifting groove, the song is effectively moving, with chilling spoken-sung vocals, and a melody that for the most part remains elusive until the track's final breathtaking moments.
The rest of the album however, is astonishingly forgettable, and continues largely where Very Soon, and in Pleasant Company ended off.
The album falls remarkably short of any pay off, as the songs and compositions wander about without any sense of purpose or even finality.
