Tuff Enuff is a 1986 studio album by Texas-based blues rock and rockabilly band The Fabulous Thunderbirds which pointed the band in a more mainstream direction. The single, "Tuff Enuff" was featured in the films Gung Ho, Tough Guys, as was the follow-up single "Wrap It Up". It has also been played a number of times on the sitcom Married… with Children. "Tuff Enuff" remains the band's only Top 40 hit, peaking at No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Six years after its initial appearance, Ronnie Wood's fifth solo album, Slide on This, is reissued by KOCH International in a deluxe package. There is one bonus track, a remixed version of the leadoff song, "Somebody Else Might," but the real draw to this version of the album is the 56-page booklet packaged with it, which contains examples of Wood's painting. He takes as his subjects his fellow members of the Rolling Stones, along with other musical peers such as Pete Townshend and Keith Moon of the Who, the Edge from U2 (who contributes some guitar work to the album), and Bob Dylan, as well as music legends like Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday, Jimi Hendrix, and Jim Morrison, and even a few animal portraits.

Un disco tropicale, dall'anima clubbing, anche se la discoteca non si trova a Milano Marittima ma fra le risaie della Lomellina.

Procol's Ninth is the eighth studio album (ninth including Live) by Procol Harum, and was released in September 1975. Produced by songwriters Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, Procol's Ninth featured a slightly different direction from the previous album, with a much more stark sound than Chris Thomas's more elaborate productions. According to an interview with guitarist Mick Grabham, conducted by Roland Clare for the 2009 reissue, Leiber and Stoller focused less on the production sound and more on "the structure of the songs". The band appeared on the cover of the album in a straightforward unassuming photograph, mirroring the sound of the album itself. The cover featured simulations of each band member's signature.

One is the Bee Gees' eighteenth studio album (sixteenth worldwide), released in April 1989 (August 1989 in the United States). After the European success of their previous album, E.S.P., the Gibb brothers began to work on the One album in early 1988. In March, their brother Andy suddenly died and the Bee Gees took a break until November when they returned to the studio to complete the album, but this time they shifted to Mayfair Studios in London, making One their first album since Mr. Natural to be recorded partly or fully in the British capital, though "Ordinary Lives" was started before Andy Gibb's death. The style of One was more melancholic than E.S.P., and heavily influenced by the loss of their brother. The album was dedicated to Andy and the song "Wish You Were Here" was written as a tribute to him.

Bruce Springsteen once said he intended to make an album with words like Bob Dylan that sounded like Phil Spector where he sang like Roy Orbison, a nifty summary of many, but not all, of his artistic ambitions and a key to his appeal. Unlike any other singer/songwriters saddled with the appellation of "the new Dylan" in the early '70s, Springsteen never hid how he was raised on '60s AM radio.

Elvis Presley mag dan de belangrijkste persoon zijn in de Amerikaanse populaire muziek van de 20e eeuw, maar daarmee is hij nog niet de beste en zeker niet de meest consistente. Niemand kan echter ontkennen dat deze muzikant het meest verantwoordelijk is geweest voor de groei van de internatational populariteit van rock & roll. Zijn muziek uit de vijftiger jaren legde de basis voor rock & roll; zijn explosieve en seksuele uitstraling tijdens optredens werden standaards voor het visuele imago van de muziek; zijn stem was ongelooflijk krachtig en veelzijdig.

Emerging from the Liverpool group scene during the goldrush years, The Merseybeats' combination of Everly Brothers-style vocal harmonies and adroitly-chosen beat boom ballads saw them record several hit singles (including 'I Think Of You', which reached the Top Five), a brace of very popular EPs and a self-titled album that spent a couple of months in the LP charts. After their superb version of 'I Stand Accused' (a big favourite of local teenager Elvis Costello, later to cover the song) failed to become the huge success that it deserved to be, group leaders Tony Crane and Billy Kinsley reinvented themselves as vocal duo The Merseys, who recorded one of the classic mid-Sixties pop hits in 'Sorrow', subsequently quoted in Beatles track 'It's All Too Much' and taken back into the charts a few years later by David Bowie. 'Sorrow' was followed by a handful of Merseys singles that, although less successful, are now highly regarded by admirers of late Sixties British pop and psychedelia, and are now legitimately assembled under one roof for the first time.

Three CD anthology containing every song recorded by Merseybeat group, The Swinging Blue Jeans between 1963 and 1969. Plus their sole UK album 'Blue Jeans A' Swinging' (1964) in full in both mono and stereo versions and all of the tracks from their rare 1966 Canadian only LP 'Don't Make Me Over', believed to have been withdrawn soon after release. These tracks include versions of The Beatles' 'This Boy', The Lovin' Spoonful's 'Do You Believe In Magic' and soul man Rufus Thomas' 'Jump Back'. The Swinging Blue Jeans had a residency at Liverpool's legendary Cavern Club where The Beatles once appeared as their guests and, like the Fab Four, they cut their teeth playing Hamburg's The Star-Club. The huge success of their 1963 single 'Hippy Hippy Shake' made The Swinging Blue Jeans stars in the UK, Canada, Scandinavia, Germany, Australia and the USA. Terry Sylvester from The Escorts joined The Swinging Blue Jeans in early 1966, appearing on singles, 'Sandy', 'Rumours, Gossip, Words Untrue' and 'What Have They Done To Hazel' and the Canadian album, 'Don't Make Me Over', before leaving to replace Graham Nash in The Hollies in 1968. Singers Madeline Bell and Kiki Dee guest on the 1967 single 'Tremblin'.

Sir Simon Rattle Over a career that has included extended tenures with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Simon Rattle has become recognized as one of the world's top conductors. Mostly focusing on symphonic music, he has also conducted major operatic productions. His recording catalog is vast and includes music from Haydn to contemporary works, but he performs music of the late 19th and early 20th centuries especially often.A native of Liverpool, Rattle was born on January 19, 1955. He studied piano, violin, and percussion as a youngster, joining the Merseyside Youth Orchestra as a percussionist and later playing with Britain's National Youth Orchestra.

Music from Faye Adams, Charlie & Ray, Maurice Williams & The Zodiacs, and more – 50 tracks in all.

Reissued for the first time in decades as a standalone title the 47th (and a bit) anniversary 3D EP CD. 1977 was a classic year for singles, the year when ‘Punk’ mutated into New Wave producing a seemingly endless run of great 45s – from The Ramones to The Jam, Elvis Costello to Jonathan Richman, Sex Pistols to Richard Hell. With David Bowie (Heroes), Kraftwerk (Showroom Dummies) and Bob Marley (Jamming) also, releasing key singles – it was as if Marley’s Punky Reggae Party had plenty of wonderful music from the mainstream to broaden the 7” mix still further… but that’s only one side of the story… Mainstream music buyers seemed oblivious to much of the above as - Elvis Presley (death), David Soul (TV, twice), Rod Stewart (preventing Sex Pistols from reaching No.1) and Mull of Kintyre (ending the year and the start of 1978), dominated the pole position in the singles charts.
