…The members of Liquid Jesus borrowed ideas from other bands and genres with gleeful abandon, and the colorful mix of ideas was far more interesting than almost anything their contemporaries were doing. This strategy was nevertheless a weakness because the radio programmers had no idea what to do with such a sprawlingly diverse album. Rolling Stone gave the album a very good review, as did several other influential journals, but the Pour in the Sky never got the attention it deserved.

The harmonic player, composer and professor Tommy Reilly (Ontario, 1919-2000) offers here one of his recordings with orchestra of German musician and director Kai Warner (1926-1982), brother of the well known director James Last. Reilly in 1967 designed a concert harmonica that was manufactured by the Hohner house. In collaboration with Kai Warner performed this compendium of 12 Latin-themed pieces (in other editions entitled 'America armonica'). The harmonica, a small instrument usually underestimated, is large by the hand of a virtuoso like Tommy Reilly.

CD album performed by Celia Cruz and released in 2002, months before her death, compilation of 21 boleros from his wide repertoire. Can be highlighted some of the most known items in the Hispanic world as 'Perdón', 'Esperaré' or 'No me vayas a engañar'. Again the queen of salsa this time playing boleros.

John Mayall is often more remembered for who has passed through his group than he is for his music. Such artists as Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, Peter Green, Mick Taylor, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, and a host of others are ex-Bluesbreakers. John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers: Live At Iowa State University was recorded in 1987. His band at the time consisted of dual guitarists Walter Trout and Coco Montoya with Bobby Hayes on bass and Paul Hines behind the drums. He was in his mid-fifties at the time this concert was recorded and appeared healthy. His voice is in fine shape. He even seems to be having fun on stage. The music is superb. John Mayall plays the blues and nothing but the blues….

Marilyn Mazur’s work has always expressed a free-spiritedness beyond idioms and borders. Born in New York, raised in Denmark, she has contributed powerfully to improvisation on both sides of the Atlantic, and her resume has included stints with Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter and Gil Evans as well as 14 years on the road with the Jan Garbarek Group. In recent years her own groups have been the primary focus and the adventurous, song-oriented “Celestial Circle” has been active since 2008. The present disc is the group’s first recording. Material intersperses songs and instrumentals penned by Mazur with collectively improvised trios and duos. Singer Josefine Cronhom (who previously worked with Mazur in the Percussion Paradise ensemble) has her ECM debut here and old friends John Taylor and Anders Jormin make welcome returns.

2013 release, the sixth album and the instrumental neo-fusion supergroup Niacin featuring legendary bassist Billy Sheehan (Mr. Big, Steve Vai, David Lee Roth), world-renowned drummer Dennis Chambers (Santana, Parliament/Funkadelic) and acclaimed keyboardist John Novello (Chick Corea, Ritchie Cole). Krush was recorded at Clear Lake Studios in North Hollywood (No Doubt, Black Veil Brides, Intronaut) with engineer Ara Sarkisian (Steel Panther) while being mixed and mastered by Dino Herrmann (Scorpions, Guns N' Roses, Meat Loaf).

Tom Ovans is a Nashville-based, Boston-raised street rocker and song poet who is comfortable playing folk, blues, and hard-driving rock. His vocal style is eerily similar to that of Bob Dylan, with the power of Joe Ely…

The Power and the Myth is the fourth studio album and the first since the reunion, by House of Lords, released on August 3, 2004. The album marks the return of original members Chuck Wright, Lanny Cordola and Ken Mary, but is the first not to feature keyboardist, main songwriter and founding member Gregg Giuffria. Then Mr. Big drummer Pat Torpey co-wrote many of the songs on the album.

This album is another example of great japanese prog rock created by mature musicians.The ELP influence is quite obvious through the grandiose and bombastic style of the keyboards of Egawa.Things do not stop here.There is an evident hard-rocking sound mostly created by the guitars,as well as some neo prog touches here and there…

In "Southern Kind of Life," a song on her debut album, The Captain, Kasey Chambers convincingly describes a rural Southern upbringing – poverty stricken and Bible dominated – and since she performs in a style associated with the Appalachians as developed into commercial country music, it's easy to assume she's singing about the American South. But she isn't; she's singing about the Nullarbor Plain in south-central Australia, where she grew up, apparently listening to a lot of country records…..
