Back in early 80s Soho, Blue Rondo A La Turk defined 'cool'. Singer/writer Chris Sullivan, guitarist Mark Reilly and vocalist Christos Tolera (with help from myriad talented personnel) married Latin jazz, R&B, Cuban and urban soul with a strong pop sensibility (witty lyrics, catchy melodies). After singles such as the Top 40 hit 'Me And Mr. Sanchez' and the irrepressible'Klacto Vee Sedstein' and debut album 'Chewing The Fat' in 1982, the team went their separate ways. While Mark Reilly and others founded Matt Bianco, a new line-up of the original combo re-emerged in autumn 1983 with shortened name Blue Rondo. Accompanied by new singles 'Slipping Into Daylight' (a club favourite at the time) and 'Masked.

The connection between language and music is as old as human history. In rituals, religious ceremonies, or storytelling, language and music merge into a unity that goes far beyond the mere transmission of information – a tradition that spans from antiquity to the present day. In language and music, people and their life paths meet, discovering connections where once there was estrangement. The new album „Nirgendland (Nessunluogo)” by Etta Scollo follows in this tradition. In it, Etta Scollo translates the poetry of Mascha Kaléko into music to commemorate the 50th anniversary of her death. Musically, „Nirgendland (Nessunluogo)“ is a work that unites various styles and genres, as Etta Scollo seeks the sound shape in each poem that suits Kaléko’s words. Through jazzy tones, elements of chanson, and intense vocal pieces, Scollo and her distinguished guests span an arc that reflects the diversity and complexity of the poems while allowing each piece to feel like a musical diorama, granting access to Kaléko and her world. Artists like clarinetist Tara Bouman, cellist Susanne Paul, and German songwriter Dota Kehr each make unique contributions to this album, characterized by a sense of community and collaboration as well as actress Eva Mattes, with whom Scollo recorded two duets. Internationally renowned musicians such as Belgian vibraphonist Els Vandeweyer and actress Maddalena Crippa also shaped the unique sound of „Nirgendland (Nessunluogo)“

Atlantic 75 Historic Reissue Series from Analogue Productions! Genesis' seventh studio album was released in February 1976 on Charisma Records and was the first to feature drummer Phil Collins as lead vocalist after the departure of Peter Gabriel. The album was a critical and commercial success in the U.K. and U.S., reaching No. 3 and No. 31 respectively. A Trick of the Tail was a landmark album for the band, and it still stands today as one of their best with classics such as "Dance on a Volcano" and "Squonk."

John’s PR states that at age 72 he should be retired. Did anyone tell Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Keith Richards, Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney, or Neil Young? No. This collection finds Mr. McCutcheon in a good voice. His repertoire is age-appropriate. This album features a regional singer-songwriter who should be more widely known, Carrie Newcomer - a marvelous, consistently good singer-songwriter who co-wrote & sings with John on “Fields of Stars,” a surprise like this is what I always look forward to.

The six Trio Sonatas for organ seem to belong to the earlier years of Bach's period in Leipzig, dated conjecturally to 1727, apparently devised for the use of the composer's eldest son Wilhelm Friedemann, who became one of the most distinguished organists of his generation in Germany. The sonatas demand clarity of performance and distinct enunciation of the two melodic lines and bass pedal part.

Francesco Gasparini was active in Italy during the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries; he served for a time at the Venetian orphanage called the Ospedale della Pietà, where he hired the young violinist Antonio Vivaldi. His music has been mostly unheard for several centuries, and this high-quality revival will be welcomed by Baroque vocal fans and those interested in Vivaldi and his world. Included are a quartet of cantatas, two for soprano and alto, and two solo cantatas, mostly with a pair of violins and continuo. Despite the plural "sonate" promised by the disc title, there is only one sonata, placed in the middle of the program as a kind of intermission.

Mitsuko Uchida is one of the finest interpreters of Mozart's piano music. She brings to this music a lightness and delicacy that fits it perfectly. Uchida plays with an incredible humility. Her performances are never overbearing - she offers subtlety and emotion rather than force. Both lyrical and expressive, she uses her brilliant technique to play the virtuoso parts of the sonatas, yet never seems to be showing off. Her nimble fingers give the most attractive ornaments to these pieces, yet, again, these ornaments are not gratuitous - they fit perfectly with the tone and colours of the works.

Not long after You're Gonna Get It, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' label, Shelter, was sold to MCA Records. Petty struggled to free himself from the major label, eventually sending himself into bankruptcy. He settled with MCA and set to work on his third album, digging out some old Mudcrutch numbers and quickly writing new songs. Amazingly, through all the frustration and anguish, Petty & the Heartbreakers delivered their breakthrough and arguably their masterpiece with Damn the Torpedoes. Musically, it follows through on the promise of their first two albums, offering a tough, streamlined fusion of the Stones and Byrds that, thanks to Jimmy Iovine's clean production, sounded utterly modern yet timeless. It helped that the Heartbreakers had turned into a tighter, muscular outfit, reminiscent of, well, the Stones in their prime - all of the parts combine into a powerful, distinctive sound capable of all sorts of subtle variations…
