One of the strongest voices in the folk revival and the civil rights movement, Odetta was born on New Year's Eve 1930 in Birmingham, AL. By the time she was six years old, she had moved with her younger sister and mother to Los Angeles. She showed a keen interest in music from the time she was a child, and when she was about ten years old, somewhere between church and school, her singing voice was discovered. Odetta's mother began saving money to pay for voice lessons for her, but was advised to wait until her daughter was 13 years old and well into puberty.

Resurrection band was not just one of the early founders of Christian rock and early Jesus people music they were also the leaders behind (JPUSA) Cornerstone Festival which so many of us came to love and appreciate not to mention attend every single year. Those years were magical and nothing was greater that watch Rez play on main stage over the 4th of July weekend. It's something we all looked forward to every single year. Resurrection band is the most influential band in Christian music history. Rarely do you hear Resurrection Band get compared to any other band.

A four-CD set featuring the work of It Bites from 1986-1991. The collection features all three studio albums from that era (The Big Lad In The Windmill (1986), Once Around The World (1988) and Eat Me in St. Louis (1989)) as well as the Thank You And Goodnight live set. The studio albums all come with bonus tracks including seven-inch edits, B-sides, original CD/Cassette bonus tracks and more.

Over the years, Hamburg's legendary Helloween have carved a distinctive path, earning their place as the early pioneers of melodic power and speed metal. Making a lasting impact with the groundbreaking albums Keeper of the Seven Keys Parts I and II, the band now boasts a genre-defining discography that includes 16 studio albums, 4 live albums, 3 EPs, and 30 singles. With over 10 million records sold and having shared stages with giants like Iron Maiden, Scorpions, and Ozzy Osbourne, Helloween's influence is undeniable, and their enduring legacy secure.

Featuring 42 handpicked tracks, this collection showcases the band's decades of work and shines a lasting light on the career of these influential godfathers of the genre.

Studio Sysmo, Paris, February 17 & 18, 1988. This album was recorded barely three months before Chet Baker’s death (he died in mysterious circumstances, falling from his Amsterdam hotel room in May 1988, aged just 58) and was long thought to be his final recording session. In fact, Baker would record two more studio albums the following month. Even so, it documents one of his final recordings and provides a tantalising glimpse of unfulfilled future plans.

13 years in the making, Mr Bongo proudly presents a new compilation of beloved Brazilian disco and boogie finds from the legendary London disco connoisseurs, Horse Meat Disco. A labour of love, it showcases a tantalising cross-section of disco, funk, boogie, samba and MPB, from past to present. Unearthing tracks from the seemingly endless gold mine of Brazilian gems, the compilation features legends such as Jorge Ben, Gretchen, Marcos Valle and Robson Jorge & Lincoln Olivetti, alongside unsung heroes including Zé Carlos and Carlos Bivar. Over 20 years ago, the Horse Meat Disco crew (James Hillard, Severino Panzetta, Jim Stanton and Luke Howard) began their weekly residency at Eagle London back in 2003. That same year, Luke made his first visit to Brazil, beginning a musical love affair that is still going strong.

Das eine, das definitive, das endgültige Berlin Punk-Album. Diese Doppel-CD dokumentiert die klassischen Berlin Punk-Jahre von 1977 bis zur Maueröffnung '89. 44 Bands sind mit ebenso vielen Titeln vertreten, darunter wirklich jede Gruppe, die in der Berliner Punkszene der 70er und 80er eine Bedeutung hatte - von Old School-Ikonen wie PVC oder Tempo bis hin zu den bekannten Berlin-Bands der 80er wie Vorkriegsjugend, Charley's War oder Jingo De Lunch. Spezieller Bonus sind ein nirgendwo anders veröffentlichter, früher Titel von Die Ärzte sowie mehrere, ebenfalls vorher nie erschienene Nummern von Ostberliner Untergrund-Punkbands der 80er.

The "Best of" collection from Mastercuts Gold- easily the most comprehensive addition to the Heatwave catalog. Given the quality and craftsmanship behind each of their five original releases, it is difficult to capture, in essence, a hint of the band's contribution to fine funk/British r&b in a single collection. Here, however, are featured several later gems found on the wonderful "Current" LP in addition to "Candles", both of which warrant complete reissues. From the scintillating vocal arrangements to the timeless songwriting of Rod Temperton, Heatwave produced an all encompassing groove, blending sophisticated funk with memorable harmonic lines.

"The tale of Sonny Moore’s career is a long and unpredictable one: Emo kid from LA makes a name as leader of a screamo band, then pivots in the late 2000s to effectively redefine dubstep for millions of raging revelers at the exact moment the EDM economy exploded. Early 2010s EPs like Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites are now considered canon; along the way, he had a hand in some of the best pure pop tunes of the decade, scored a Harmony Korine film (2012’s Spring Breakers), and circled back to reunite with his old band, From First to Last. But for his outsized impact on the past two decades of pop culture, his studio albums have been few and, well, not always far between. Nine years passed between his full-length debut, 2014’s Recess, and his second album, 2023’s Quest for Fire; one day later, he released his third album, Don’t Get Too Close.

Resurrection band is the most influential band in Christian music history. Rarely do you hear Resurrection Band get compared to any other band. They clearly found their own sound and didn't worry about following in the footsteps of anyone else. Glenn and Wendy Kaiser along with Stu Heiss, Jim Denton and John Herrin simply knew what they were after, to spread Gods' love through music and ministry.

Songwriter, guitarist and producer Oscar Jerome releases his third solo LP, The Fork, weaving sophisticated and nuanced narratives into the recognisably lyrical guitar style with which he made his name in London’s vibrant musical community. A former member of celebrated outfit Kokoroko, Jerome has since honed an articulate, sensitive approach to song-writing, releasing two EPs and LPs and touring the world off the back of his acclaimed 2022 album The Spoon. Described by Jerome as “about coming to a reckoning with yourself", ”The Fork is the first record that he has produced entirely himself, maturing a sound that owes as much to folk troubadours John Martyn and Joni Mitchell as it does to Prince and early Carlos Santana. His most personal and ambitious record to date, The Fork represents a deepening of Jerome’s experience of the world through music, where a crafted metaphor or single chord can communicate feelings that are often impossible to grasp.
