Collection or Collections may refer to:
Collections is a compilation album by hip-hop group Cypress Hill. It was released in 2008 and forms part of Sony Music's budget Collections series. The album consists of singles and album tracks taken from Black Sunday, Cypress Hill III: Temples of Boom, Cypress Hill IV and Stoned Raiders.
(*) Although not credited as such, "Tequilla Sunrise" was the 'Radio Edit' version.
Collections is the second album by rock band The Young Rascals. The album was released on January 9, 1967 and rose to #15 on the Billboard Top LPs chart.
Collections was the Rascals' first album to showcase their songwriting talent, with six of the album's songs written by band members. On its original release, the song "Turn On Your Love Light" was incorrectly titled as "Love Lights," and credited to The Sonics' bandleader Gerald (Gerry) Roslie, who had written a song called "Love Lights" for that band. Upon its release as a single, "(I've Been) Lonely Too Long" was credited to Cavaliere/Brigati, rather than to Felix Cavaliere alone.
The album featured two Top 20 U.S. hits; "(I've Been) Lonely Too Long" reached #16 on the Billboard Hot 100, while "Love Is a Beautiful Thing" (released as a double A-side with non-album single "You Better Run") preceded it at #20.
In his review for Allmusic, music critic Bruce Eder wrote the "garage rock" sound of the band's first album was gone and called it a "wonderfully soulful body of music that picks up right where "In the Midnight Hour" from the prior album left off. Most of this record is among the most danceable white rock music of its period..." The band was awarded a Gold Album in the United States for Collections.
The Uzi (Hebrew: עוזי, officially cased as UZI) pronunciation: i/ˈuːzi/ is a family of Israeli open-bolt, blowback-operated submachine guns. Smaller variants are considered to be machine pistols. The Uzi was one of the first weapons to use a telescoping bolt design which allows the magazine to be housed in the pistol grip for a shorter weapon.
The first Uzi submachine gun was designed by Major Uziel Gal in the late 1940s. The prototype was finished in 1950. First introduced to IDF special forces in 1954, the weapon was placed into general issue two years later. The Uzi has found use as a personal defense weapon by rear-echelon troops, officers, artillery troops and tankers, as well as a frontline weapon by elite light infantry assault forces.
The Uzi has been exported to over 90 countries. Over its service lifetime, it has been manufactured by Israel Military Industries, FN Herstal, and other manufacturers. From the 1960s through the 1980s, more Uzi submachine guns were sold to more military, law enforcement and security markets than any other submachine gun ever made.
Uzi was an American alternative rock band, formed in 1984 in Boston, Massachusetts and disbanded in 1987. The band featured Thalia Zedek (vocals, guitar), Danny Lee (drums), Randy Barnwell (bass guitar), Bob Young (guitar) and Phil Milstein (tape loops). Never achieving commercial success during their short period of activity, the band gained a cult following, becoming a part of Boston's underground rock scene.
Uzi was formed by Zedek and Lee after Zedek left the all-female post-punk band Dangerous Birds in 1983. Barnwell was replaced briefly by Craig Federhen prior to Uzi's first concert.
The band released only one EP, Sleep Asylum, released by Homestead Records in 1986. The band's sound featured "gritty wall of sound guitars, tape loops, and heavy drumbeats, accompanied by Zedek's strong vocal presence," which drew comparisons to noise rock acts such as Sonic Youth and to a lesser extent, Big Black. The EP was included at No. 5 in the annual Village Voice Pazz & Jop critics poll.
Uzi (unofficially subtitled The Rape Of Palestine) is a CD compilation of the Muslimgauze albums Uzi and The Rape of Palestine. The unofficial subtitle is used to distinguish between this album and Uzi.
This CD is wrongly indexed between tracks 16 and 17 so that track 17 is not "The Power Of The Word" but is instead the second part of "Ways Of Faith". The real "The Power Of The Word" that was included in The Rape Of Palestine 12" is missing in this release.
