Third studio album among seventeen released by flamenco singer José Soto Soto (Jerez de la Frontera, 1955), aka 'José Mercé'. Born in a family of flamenco singers singers he is the grandson of the historical Manuel Soto 'el Sordera'. Mercé began his activity in the world of flamenco singing at the early age of thirteen and since then he has not only increased his fame to the point of being currently considered one of the top figures and major disseminator and innovator of flamenco singing. Mercé has dared to innovate by merging flamenco with styles like blues or modern song.

Album by the American singer and pianist Sarah Lois Vaughan (New Jersey, 1924-1990) originally titled 'Copacabana' outside Brazil. It is one of the last she launched in her solo career. This was the second album dedicated to the bossanova after 'I love Brazil!' (1977). The music scene of the play offers a vocal 'vintage' of slow jazz and bossa enough for an evening of just over half an hour.

THE UNGUIDED – the new band featuring founding brothers Richard & Roger Sjunnesson and former members of Sonic Syndicate – release a highly dynamic and electrifying Melodic Death Metal album. "Fragile Immortality" features highly infectious melodies combined with metallic heaviness and turns songs like "Blodbad" or "Inception" into hymns of a new generation. The centerpiece is undoubtedly the vocal duo Roland Johansson & Richard Sjunnesson, who also branded the trademark sound of SONIC SYNDICATE. The new songs were mixed and mastered at the legendary "Studio Fredman" by Fredrik Nordström & Henric Udd. "Fragile Immortality" breathes new life into the Melodic Death Metal genre and furthermore sets the band’s course to become one of the big players in the music world.

Swedish riff lords GRAND MAGUS are set to unleash their new album 'Triumph And Power' . Triumph and Power was recorded at Studio Sweetspot in Halmstad, Sweden this past September with producer Nico Elgstrand and engineer Staffan Karlsson (ARCH ENEMY, SPIRITUAL BEGGARS). Artwork was done this time around by Anthony Roberts.

Rare unearthed masters from this obscure 1973 UK progressive rock group obviously influenced by Wishbone Ash and their kind. Bonus tracks are from another unknown 70’s band the post-Argus group Anaconda.

Aside from the experimental side project Lumpy Gravy, Hot Rats was the first album Frank Zappa recorded as a solo artist sans the Mothers, though he continued to employ previous musical collaborators, most notably multi-instrumentalist Ian Underwood. Other than another side project – the doo wop tribute Cruising With Ruben and the Jets – Hot Rats was also the first time Zappa focused his efforts in one general area, namely jazz-rock. The result is a classic of the genre. Hot Rats' genius lies in the way it fuses the compositional sophistication of jazz with rock's down-and-dirty attitude – there's a real looseness and grit to the three lengthy jams, and a surprising, wry elegance to the three shorter, tightly arranged numbers (particularly the sumptuous "Peaches en Regalia").

Tchaikovsky's four suites for orchestra don't have the structural heft or the emotional impact of his seven symphonies, but they are lovely. For the listener who savors the Russian composer's specific sound world but is not in the mood for being emotionally overtaxed, these suites are just the thing. The first two are collections of character pieces, the First with its Divertimento and Intermezzo, the Second with its Valse and Danse baroque. The later two are more substantial, the Third with its extended series of Variations, and the Fourth with its heartfelt homages to Mozart. This is ideal light Tchaikovsky.
