THE ULTIMATE POWER POP GUIDE (2008) (new rips)
As some of you may have noticed, all the UPPG links were mostly dead. So, instead of re-upping the old rips previously posted in 2008, i've made some brand new rips and converted them to mp3 (320) using the lame 3.98 codec. For the first time, the whole collection is also available in FLAC (the lossless links are on RS as MF doens't accept files over 200 mb).
Between 2008 and today, a lot of the items featured on the list have been reissued on CD (Candy, The Late Show, D.L. Byron, Clovis Roblaine and more...), though some other albums remain tricky to find.
In 2008, John Borack and Not Lame published "Shake Some Action - The Ultimate Power Pop Guide". According to the list of the Top 200 of the best Power Pop albums, i made these nine (unauthorized) compilations. Click on the links below to read all the details about this popular collection.
