“Now” is a refined and intimate collaboration between pianist Gary Husband and guitarist Alex Machacek, two highly respected figures in modern jazz fusion. The album focuses on duo interplay, emphasizing musical dialogue, harmonic depth, and spontaneous interaction without the support of a traditional rhythm section. This stripped-down setting allows both musicians to explore compositional ideas with clarity and precision, highlighting their technical mastery and expressive control. Machacek’s intricate guitar work blends seamlessly with Husband’s nuanced piano phrasing, resulting in a fluid and conversational musical experience. The compositions range from lyrical and introspective pieces to rhythmically complex and harmonically adventurous sections, maintaining a consistent sense of cohesion throughout. “Now” stands as a sophisticated and modern fusion recording that prioritizes subtlety, creativity, and musical communication over density or excess, offering a thoughtful listening experience for fans of contemporary jazz exploration.

Two classic easy-listening albums by Paul Mauriat and His Orchestra, originally released in 1969 on the Philips label, together on one CD and remastered from the original analogue stereo tapes for Vocalion's trademark crystal-clear sound. French composer/conductor Paul Mauriat is a classically trained musician who decided to pursue a career in popular music. His first major success came in 1962, as a co-writer of the European hit "Chariot." In 1963, the song was given English lyrics, renamed "I Will Follow Him," and became a number one American hit for Little Peggy March. Mauriat is best remembered for his 1968 worldwide smash "Love Is Blue."

2013 mix from the original multi-track tapes by Robert Fripp, Tony Arnold and David Singleton at the Courthouse, Cranborne, Dorset.
As Robert Fripp had done with King Crimson's first live LP, Earthbound (1972), USA is a single-disc concert package documenting the quartet during its 1974 swing through North America. As with its predecessor, USA was also issued as a sonic cenotaph of the concurrently defunct Krim. So insistent that the band would not be resurrected, Fripp concluded the LP's liner notes at the time with another three-letter epitaph: "R.I.P." The 1973/1974 King Crimson included the collective efforts of Fripp (guitar/Mellotron), David Cross (violin), John Wetton (bass/vocals), and Bill Bruford (drums/percussion)…

Most famous for his vocal and guitar work in the group Ten Years After, Alvin Lee had a long solo career after the band dispersed, still working in the hard rock, rockabilly, and British blues style that TYA did until his sudden death in Spain in the spring of 2013. This set captures his last live show, a concert held in Raalte, Holland, on May 28, 2012, with a crisp rhythm section of Pete Pritchard on bass and Richard Newman on drums. The show was recorded, and although it wasn't recorded to be an official release, Lee was pleased with the performance and authorized its release, not knowing, of course, that it would be his swan song.
