To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the birth of Lelio Ruttazzi, the Italian composer, actor, singer, and pianist, Massimo Farao has created a masterpiece of his great works as a jazz piano trio full of charm. [Massimo Farao (piano), Nicola Balbon (double bass), Alessandro Basi (drums) Recorded in Italy, March 2023.

The enduring charm, contemporary relevance, and harmonic convergence of Crosby, Stills & Nash's fabled self-titled debut owe not only to impeccably played songs and resonant lyrics, but to career-defining performances by music's first genuine supergroup. Crosby, Stills & Nash lingers as an example of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. Factor in phenomenal studio production and acoustic-based architecture that served as guideposts for myriad albums that followed, and popular music would never be the same.

Massimo Farao', Nicola Barbon and Bobo Facchinetti present a set of classics including songs by Percy Sledge, John Hicks, Bobby Timmons, Ocar Peterson and more.

A modern jazz piano album with a relaxing mood in which the Massimo Trio plays beautiful and comfortable swings of Italian canzuone's big hit song "Dreaming Thoughts" and other beautiful melodic Italian love songs!

The second album from the rapidly rising Italian jazz trumpeter, Cesare Mecca, is a beautiful and mysterious Afro-Cuban jazz world, with romantic trumpeting that is full of dangerous notes!

Steely Dan's gold-selling third studio album Pretzel Logic, charted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 and restored the group's radio presence with the single "Rikki Don't Lose That Number," which became the biggest pop hit of their career and peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. The 1974 album was produced by Gary Katz and was written primarily by Walter Becker (bass) and bandleader Donald Fagen (vocals, keyboards).

DEFINITIVELY MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL ANALOG MASTER TAPES: SACD PLAYS WITH REFERENCE CLARITY, SUPERB DYNAMICS, AND LIVELY IMMEDIACY. Van Halen did more than announce to the world the earthshaking arrival of a revolutionary guitarist. Performed by an enterprising California quartet that took its name from two of its principal members, the 1978 debut ripped headlines away from punk, injected fresh energy into a then-moribund rock 'n' roll scene, reimagined how heavy music and throwback pop could coexist, and invited everyone to experience the top-down pleasures of a beachfront Saturday night every day of the week no matter where they lived. Painstakingly restored by Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab, and the first of a multi-album series in an exciting partnership between the famous reissue label and Van Halen, Van Halen delivers feel-good thrills and hormonally charged desires like never before.

Over the last half-decade, The Pineapple Thief - led by musical polymath Bruce Soord and bolstered by the involvement of master drummer Gavin Harrison - has rapidly ascended to the upper echelons of Europe’s Alternative Rock scene.

Agropelter is a progressive rock project from Norway. It is the creative outlet of Kay Olsen, a new contender on the blossoming norwegian prog scene. The music lends as much inspiration from the classic prog groups like Genesis, Camel, King Crimson and Eloy, as it does from classic composers Rachmaninoff, Beethoven, Bach along with Vangelis and Terje Rypdal.

In the three years since their second LP Editrix II, Eisenberg, Daniel, and Cameron have thrived in individual states of motion — in and away from music. New York City-based Eisenberg is an accomplished solo artist in the avant-garde realm, receiving recent acclaim for their album Viewfinder (released by American Dreams in 2024). They are also a prolific collaborator, performing in a handful of projects alongside the likes of romantic partner more eaze, Bill Orcutt, David Grubbs, and others. Cameron relocated from Massachusetts to New York City around the same time Editrix II came out, taking a slight step away from music to return to school. Daniel is the only member of Editrix left living in Massachusetts, and performs with the eclectic bands Landowner, Hot Dirt, and The Leafies You Gave Me.

Multi-Platinum band Fitz and the Tantrums have officially announced their highly anticipated new album, "Man On The Moon". "Man On The Moon" follows Fitz and the Tantrums' 2022 studio album "Let Yourself Free." Highlighted by singles "Sway" and "Moneymaker," the LP arrived to widespread praise from Rolling Stone, American Songwriter and Billboard. The band toured extensively in support of the album, visiting sold-out venues coast-to-coast and abroad. It also delivered high-energy performances on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" and "Good Morning America," and brought holiday cheer to the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve" and The Rose Parade.

Bianca Gismonti, daughter of famed Brazilian Composer, Guitarist and Pianist Egberto Gismonti brings us the new album Gismonti 70.

Why Chopin impresses his listeners and performers again and again is beyond explanation. However, as I wrote in the liner notes to this album, for me the relationship with Chopin is a highly ambivalent one. The reason for this lies perhaps most of all in Frédéric Chopin's endlessly complex personality. For Chopin, in contrast to the mainstream of his time, does nothing other than defy musical public opinion (public taste?), but he always does so, cryptically speaking, with his starting point being a far-reaching respect for and, above all, knowledge of the traditions (especially Bach and Mozart). And this is obvious if we consider that Chopin's music always strives for absolute harmony, which he fights for again and again.

This is the third album of the Chilean guitarist Patricio Baeza. For this solo album Patricio has chosen the most popular Latin songs written between 1943 to 1979.
