The Monkees' "Last Train to Clarksville," Seals and Crofts's "Diamond Girl," and Boz Scaggs's "Lowdown" represent just a fraction of the hits containing licks or solos by guitarist Louie Shelton. Shelton's L.A. session work ushered in a golden age of guitar on records when his torch was taken up by aces like Larry Carlton, Lee Ritenour, and Jay Graydon. For all that, Urban Culture doesn't have the impact of his best studio work, but it does accurately reflect his artistic range. Appreciation of Shelton's art comes from close listening to the niceties of his elegant touch. Occasionally, as on "Inner City Blues" and "Boogaloo (reminiscent of some of John Scofield's recent work), the energy level lifts off a bit, but more often the grooves, while refreshingly human, are more relaxing than exciting. Still, Shelton has the distinction of having helped invent "smooth" and in his hands, it is still a positive thing. --Michael Ross

You'd be right to be excited about Rhino Records' voluminous compilation, Whatever: The '90s Pop and Culture Box. After all, they did such a great job with their 1980s comps, not to mention all their various approaches to prior decades, from the original Nice Day series to the expanded and brilliant Nuggets collections. Whatever is a seven-disc set that comes with a bag of stale coffee inside it. This US-centric collection has a lot of great tracks on it, from throwaway songs ("Sunscreen," "Sex And Candy") to absolute classics ("Baby Got Back," "Under the Bridge"). But ultimately, it's a complete and utter mess. A lot happened in the '90s of course; hip-hop went pop, rock got funky and weird, grunge broke open and imploded, Moby sampled the Lomax archives for a surprise hit, even the weirdest indie bands had cash thrown at them by major labels, the daisy age morphed into the chronic age, and dance music was quite nearly the next big thing. Rather than provide a narrative of underground and mainstream movements, this set smacks of the sort of lowest common denominator, novelty-centric approach that makes lowbrow VH1 programs only fleetingly satisfying. Sheesh. Hip-hop, metal, and dance music are barely covered here. And the lack of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" alone is enough to make the listener want to return the set with the words "try again" scrawled into the cover. --Mike McGonigal

Album Description

Remember the 1990s? Dot-com booms and stock market pinnacles? The fall of the Wall, the rise of Desert Storm, Presidential impeachment, and Beavis & Butt-head? The decade of grunge power, alt-rock diversity, and hip-hop evolution? The decade of grunge power, alt-rock diversity, and hip-hop evolution? It's an era that's oh-so-close, yet already so far away. If you're pining for those '90s, and we know you are-our monlithic new 7-disc box takes you back to the good old days in style.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Great because it HAS songs out of the ordinary! We all KNOW Pearl Jam and Nirvana!.......2007-06-29

This is great because we all have a lot of the songs that were really popular by Nirvana, Pearl Jam, etc... These are titles that you don't get on EVERY collection or hear all day on 90's stations, but still huge hits for either long or short periods of time. Great job!

4 out of 5 stars Would've been better broken up..........2007-04-24

Let me start by saying that I LOVE 90's Alternative rock. I was a college radio DJ, went to clubs and had myself a whale of a good time so I was looking forward to reliving it all with "Whatever". I don't think it's "too soon" to do a 90's box set either. In only a few years we'll be celebrating the 20th anniversary of Nirvana's Nevermind and most grunge kids'll be pushing 40. The DIY ethic and counterculture chest-thumping of 90's music seems like a faded fond memory in this homogenized processed teen pop world of ours today.
The trouble with Rhino's 90's set is that it tries to take several disparate genres of music and make it all fit our definition of the 90's. They missed the boat here because unlike the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's....radio became more fragmented in the 90's. You would'nt find too many Hip Hop fans rocking out to White Zombie and Pantera fans probably would'nt be grooving to Marc Cohn. Each fanbase usually had it's own radio station and culture. Whereas Rhino's "Ohmigod!" 80's box could get away with putting Tommy Tutone and The Psychedelic Furs on the same playlist because at one point BOTH would've been on pop radio, the 90's simply did not offer that kind of unity. EVERYONE who was a Gen-Xer (like me) would have their own idea of what 90's music represented to them. Rhino got it right with the 80's by acknowledging and then issuing a seperate box set to cover 80's college rock/alternative called "Left Of The Dial". It probably would've been smarter to do the same thing here with seperate 90's Alternative and 90's Hip Hop boxes (and I betcha buyers would be raving about them!).
That said, there IS a great deal of nifty music on here and if you have an open mind or find yourself getting nostalgic about a song you did'nt even like at the time (a strange phemomenon that happens to all of us eventually) you'll find yourself in 90's nirvana (no pun intended...they ain't on here).
I can only imagine the difficulties Rhino will have with a 00's box set. How do you judge what goes on it? the most downloaded songs from the decade? will there even be CD's in ten years? will Amazon be selling mp3's?

3 out of 5 stars It's ok.......2007-01-13

It's ok if you like the latest 90's pop, I wasn't totally impressed with it, but I did like some of the songs.

2 out of 5 stars E for effort?.......2006-10-04

The 90s ended just a mere 6 yrs ago... and for sure there's still dust settling... leave it alone and try again anytime after 2010

3 out of 5 stars Something in the Way..........2006-07-13

Great compillation, capturing the full sound of the 90s, including all the retrospectively embarrassing stuff we all used to swear by! Just one problem... there's nothing here by the most notorious band of the 1990s: Nirvana. I don't understand how Tad, Mudhoney, L7 and Bikini Kill are all collected here, without the presence of the band that got these bands commercial recognition to begin with!

Not even "Smells Like Teen Spirit?" Come On!

5 out of 5 stars ORIGINAL.......2007-07-07

This is entirely authentic music from entirely authentic musicians. I have watched the evolution of this band since they were in their mid-teens. I watched as they fell in love with this genre and incorporated it into their own style of music.
I have listened carefully and witnessed their evolution and I think that they finally got it perfect.

Their music is authentic. They are the genuine artical. They are some of the hardest working musicians you'll find anywhere. They love what they do. This album is brilliantly produced. The sound is incredible. While I am a much bigger SKA fan than a reggae fan, JBB has inspired me to listen to more reggae -

1 out of 5 stars Just Awful.......2006-04-26

This has got to be the worst "reggae" I have ever heard recorded. From the wanna-be-Bob-Marley cliche lyrics; to the fake Jamaican accents; to the painfully dull melodies; to the droning, uninspired bass lines, this is just awful stuff. There's just too much excellent to really even just passable reggae, from Jamaica and beyond, for anyone to ever have to endure this affliction. Sorry if this review isn't quite "irie", but "who da cap fit", as is said.

5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Original........2006-02-08

I bought Pressure Points some months ago when my buddy got back from Camp Bisco where JBB had a set. He knew I'd really like them because of my love for reggae. Needless to say, I was hooked immediately and extremely interested in who John Brown's Body was and where their music has been, slipping by me somehow. After seeing them live and buying All Time at the show, my respect for them grew even more because at that point I owned only their first and latest albums, both being great and yet extremely different. Within a few weeks I needed another album and for whatever reason I chose Spirits All Around Us. THIS CD BLOWS ME AWAY.

Just as an overall scope of it, there is so much diversity and originality. It's roots reggae, it's hip-hop, it's jazz, it's pop-rock, it's ska, and it's all really really good music. Deep bass lines accented by weaving horn fills and vocal melodies that keep you on your toes wanting more and questioning, "How'd they put this all together?" No doubt this is one of my favorite studio albums I've ever owned and I constantly play it for friends who are floored and happy to hear something fresh and feel-good.

Highlights for me are:
1.Feel
2.33rpm
4.Traveling Man
5.ORIGINAL MAN
7.2 Bulls
8.GARDEN TREE
12.AMBROSIA

So happy I found about JBB, buy this album.

5 out of 5 stars Information!!!.......2006-01-22

This album is creative, diverse and a reminder that Jamaican music will influence American music FOREVER!!!! Now add the fact that alot of us born here have Jamaican friends, more and more we realize that it is a natural progression. You know, like how we have all those cities on the West Coast with Spanish names? People don't even realize that Spanish is a part of American culture too half the time.......I love this album, GO BUY IT!!!!

4 out of 5 stars Good contemporary reggae.......2005-12-12

As a long time reggae fan I dig, and dig and dig for hidden gems from throughout the history of reggae. I rarely find good contemporary roots reggae. But Spirits All Around Us by John Brown's Body is one of the few. Some tracks on this album are excellent, some are mediocore, but most are solid which explains my 4 star rating. I'll go track by track with my ratings.

Feel: (3 stars) feel good reggae. Nothing special but easy to listen to.

33 RPM: (5 stars) probably the best track on the album. It has a great hook, and message.

Eyes of the Maker: (4 stars) easy listening, great message. It's a little bright for my tastes, but it's definitely solid reggae.

Travelling Man: (5 stars) this track has a great feeling of distance and space. You really feel the theme of travelling. Great track.

Original Man: (4 stars) good hook and intensity. Solid track.

Good Vibes: (4 stars) good vibe, easy listening.

2 Bulls: (4 stars) I really like the intensity of the is track. Good use of metaphor in the lyrics. It has a very chant like quality.

Garden Tree: (4 stars) very fun track. Your girlfriend will love it.

Win Them: (3 stars) a little sappy for me, but some may really like the message.

Instrument: (3 stars) not bad, but there is so much good instrumental reggae out there, and this track doesn't really move to the level it could.

Peace in the Valley: (5 stars) the more I listen to this track the more I like it. I doesn't have the same hook that 33 RPM has, but it has great lyrics and atmosphere. It's my favorite track.

Ambrosia: (3 stars) it seems like it's trying to be deep but ends up a little cheesy, and kind of has the feeling of Rice Krispies. One of the mediocore tracks.

Forward Always: (4 stars) simple and sweet with a very good message.

Time to Move On: (3 stars) decent track. Easy to listen to, but a little repetative.

5 out of 5 stars Smooth Jazz.......2000-11-04

Louie Shelton has been gracing music lovers with great hooks since the 60's and his guitar playing on some of the greatest hits of all times. All serious guitar players and listeners know him as one of the masters of the perfect melodic guitar lines and chords at the right times. In Urban Culture he has written some wonderful tunes that feel like your there with him in the urban sitting of a jazz club. Not only has he shown his skill for the right melodic patterns but also beautiful chords and octaves. Any great student of guitar needs to listen to Louie Shelton. His skill is knowing not to over play but to leave the right space for the mood of the songs to breath. Urban Culture may seem laid back but when you listen close it has lots of energy that speaks of genius.

4 out of 5 stars Nicely laid back blend of reggae, soul, hip-hop and jazz..........2005-04-29

This album is a nicely laid back blend of reggae, soul, hip-hop and jazz. I would best describe them as a mellow Funkedelic. They can also get into a real nice groove like Funkedelic does too. Very unique band...how many hip-hop artists do you know that cover Mose Allison and Frank Zappa while sampling Charles Mingus and Mel Brooks? Plus they creatively utilize instruments such as violin, trumpet, turntables and a sitar!

My favorite tracks are the very soulful "Swim", the Miles Davis meets George Clinton like "Toes" and the cover of one of my favorite Zappa tunes "Muffin Man". This Papa's Culture CD was released by Elektra in 1993 and sadly it the only the CD they ever released.

5 out of 5 stars Band on the loose.......2004-05-08

This is a blend of POP,REGGAE,SKA,DUB,RAP,FUNK music.All yuou need is some kind of fabulous car to bring you higher.This uncategorizable music is hard to find.The reason why I got this CD is that they covered the MOSE ALLISON'S song ,TOP 40.Their interpretation is put a new light on the original song.This campy feeling in this CD is something that we cannot find these days.Unless you can dive in this campy sound ship, you have to swim by yourself all the way to the gates of delirium.Not a POP band,but a COMICAL,DELIRIOUS BAND.

5 out of 5 stars an overlooked treasure.......2002-11-21

This amazing record by Detroit's Sherard Ingram is one of my favorite records ever of any kind - and it may be both the greatest Triphop record ever and the finest Detroit Techno album of all time. I'd describe it as sounding like a magical combination of Derrick May and DJ Shadow, with a bit of the serene atmosphere of Harold Budd, the echoing melancholy of Pole or Rhythm and Sound, and a touch of the transcendence of Alice Coltrane. It's perfect music for a night drive along the beach, or a walk through the forest under a pearly full moon. I think that, along with Black Dog Production's Bytes, Kenny Larkin's Metaphor, Autechre's Chiastic Slide, Aphex's Selected Ambient Works 85-92, and Carl Craig's More Songs About Food and Revolutionary Art, this is one of the essential recordings of contemporary electronic music that any fan of the genre should have in their collection. Well, thanks for listening... er, reading, i guess.... - Chris V.

4 out of 5 stars Strange and original.......2000-08-23

In my opinion, this album is a nice blend of the best that music has come to. Trip-hop, hip-hop, and an pizzacato-5-esque atmosphere. One can also sense the influence of UNKLE and DJ Shadow. A good buy. Interesting everytime you put it on.
