Originally released in the mid-'80s, Hungry Years has been reissued, re-released, and remastered many times in many countries. The most common American version perhaps being the 1995 Castle issue. Short and to the point, Hungry Years includes some of the best selections from Accept's early catalog, including I'm a Rebel, Breaker, and the metal classic Restless and Wild. Rightfully, nothing is selected from the group's woeful eponymous 1979 debut. All three songs culled from Restless and Wild – including the title track, "Princess of the Dawn," and "Fast as a Shark" – are career highlights for Accept, not just the early era covered on Hungry Years.

A very special posthumous album featuring the one and only Philthy “Animal” Taylor, the maniac drummer who put the motor in Motörhead! The Little Villains project was founded by Taylor and UK-born guitarist James Childs (Airbus), who are joined on this album by ex-Hawkwind bassist, and Lemmy prodigy, Alan Davey!

At age 62, Tom Jones is, in a sense, making a comeback with each new recording. That is certainly the case with Mr. Jones, on which he puts himself in the hands of producers Wyclef Jean and Jerry Duplessis. Jones has never minded being the mouthpiece of a producer or two, confident enough in his own persona to stretch to meet different styles. Here, he collaborates with his partners, co-writing many of the songs. And the trio isn't afraid to take on the Jones' legend directly, starting with the lead-off track, "Tom Jones International," which even finds the singer rapping – well, sort of – in a dance-friendly paean to himself.
