The legendary pianist Joe Albany, whose career was largely fouled up by drugs, recorded several rewarding sets during 1971-82. "The Albany Touch" (originally recorded for the Japanese Trio label before being made available domestically on an obscure SeaBreeze LP) is relaxed, thoughtful and shows off Albany's roots in the bop era although the pianist generally sounded at his best in a trio setting. Highlights include "A.B. (After Bird) Blues II," "You Stepped Out Of A Dream" and "A Night In Tunisia."
"Pasadena Session" was recorded in Pasadena, CA on February 29, 1972.

This was Johnny B. Moore's first CD ever and he got an Award nomination for it! It was all Westside Chicago Blues and self-penned songs. Willie Kent and Tim Taylor are on bass & drums and you could hear that Johnny would be one of the greatest - on both - guitar & vocals.

The members of Welcome recorded their debut album in 1975 at Aquarius Studios in Geneva on the EMI/Swiss label to modest reception. The young trio embarked upon a small series of live shows in an attempt to promote the record, but lagging sales and lack of publicity led to the departure of bassist Francis Yost, who was replaced by Helmi Erdinger around the time of the band's second and final release, "You're Welcome". Welcome's music is distinctly in the vein of the early seventies, owing much of their sound to Yes ala "Relayer". The production quality of their studio releases is rather uneven, and is characterized by sometimes wavering harmony vocals, heavy mellotron and Hammond, and rather sparse guitar work. The band appears to have moved toward a more commercial sound with their second release.

The box set consists of material from the band's 2000 albums Machina/The Machines of God and Machina II/The Friends & Enemies of Modern Music.

The performance Florence Price’s Piano Quintet receives on this eagerly awaited new release from the Takács Quartet and Marc-André Hamelin would suggest that it can be only a matter of time before the work—rediscovered only in 2009—is as familiar and much-loved as the one by Dvořák with which it shares the album.

Filmed live at the Oxford Apollo in 1985 to promote the new Misdemeanour album. Featuring the singles 'This Time' and 'Night Run', plus UFO classics 'Only You Can Rock Me' and 'Doctor Doctor'. UFO originally formed in 1969, around singer Phil Mogg, bassist Pete Way and drummer Andy Parker. Reaching a peak with 1978's 'Strangers In The Night', after five classic records featuring mercurial lead guitarist Michael Schenker, UFO carried on into the 1980s with Paul Chapman replacing Schenker. Although it seemed as if UFO had called it a day at the end of their 1983 tour to support the 'Making Contact' album, singer Phil Mogg put together a new look band for 1985's 'Misdemeanor' record. Eschewing the more guitar- driven hard rock that made their name during the previous decade, the latest album had a more keyboard driven sound, typical of the 1980s. The new look UFO featured Paul Gray on bass, Jim Simpson on drums, Paul Raymond from the classic 'Strangers In The Night' era line-up of the band - back in the fold after a stint with The Michael Schenker Group - handling rhythm guitar and keyboards, plus Atomik Tommy 'M' on lead guitar.

The Detroit Symphony Orchestra and its Music Director Jader Bignamini present Wynton Marsalis’ Blues Symphony. The work is a triumphant ode to the power of the blues and the scope of America’s musical heritage. With a blend of influences from ragtime to habanera, the work takes listeners on a sonic journey through America’s revolutionary era, the early beginnings of jazz in New Orleans, and a big city soundscape that serves as a nod to the Great Migration. Detroit being one of the most vibrant melting pots of musical cultures in the US, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra seems the ideal advocate for this original contribution to the symphonic repertoire. The recording is also the first with Jader Bignamini, giving a new dimension to his music directorship.
