Number One Modern Rock Hits Of 1992
Alternative Airplay is a record chart published by the music industry magazine ''Billboard'' that ranks the most-played songs on American modern rock radio stations. Introduced by ''Billboard'' in September 1988 and named Modern Rock Tracks until June 2009, it was initially compiled based on weighted reports from several national rock radio stations. Starting with the chart dated June 12, 1993, radio airplay data compiled by Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems – which electronically monitors various radio stations on a daily basis – was introduced as a factor in determining chart rankings. Modern Rock Tracks later became solely based on Nielsen data, a change that took effect with the chart dated January 22, 1994. 145 songs topped the Modern Rock Tracks chart in the 1990s; the first of these was "Blues from a Gun" by The Jesus and Mary Chain, which spent three weeks at number one from December 1989 to January 1990.

''O' Cracker Where Art Thou?'' is a compilation album containing bluegrass versions of Cracker songs. The songs are played by two members of Cracker, David Lowery and Johnny Hickman, with musical accompaniment by Leftover Salmon. Reception In a review for AllMusic, William Ruhlmann stated that the album "provides a different way of hearing Cracker's catalog that may help a new audience recognize the quality of the group's songs. And Leftover Salmon provides plenty of good picking." Andrew Gilstrap, writing for PopMatters, commented: "it's hard to tell how seriously to take the record, but the band's sense of fun is so apparent that the listener's best choice is to probably just go along for the ride and not worry too much." Brian Ferdman of Jambands.com wrote that the "combination of excellent songwriting, virtuoso musicianship, and ebullient energy plays out like a jamband's studio fantasy, and Leftover Salmon and Cracker should be commended for producing one of the best al ...

Greatest Hits Redux
''Greatest Hits Redux'' is a compilation album by the American rock band Cracker featuring re-recordings of previously released material. The album was released on February 21, 2006 on the Cooking Vinyl label, the same day their previous label Virgin Records issued ''Get On With It: The Best of Cracker'', which featured the original versions of many of the same songs, but was released without the band's permission or cooperation. In a similar fashion, the ''Redux'' versions of the songs undercut the price of the originals on iTunes, resulting in greater sales for the ''Redux'' versions. Nine of the 13 songs that appear here are also on the Virgin compilation. Since these songs were re-recorded, there are some subtle differences scattered throughout such as changed lyrics or different instrument fills. The one new song, "Something You Ain't Got", would appear a few months later in the year on their ''Greenland Greenland ( kl, Kalaallit Nunaat, ; da, Grønland, ) is an isl ...
