M-Opus are Jonathan Casey (keys, vocals) and Colin Sullivan (guitar, vocals), a progressive rock duo from Dublin, Ireland. The duo have played together in original and cover bands for 15 years, but established M-Opus in 2014. Under the stage name Arch Stanton, Casey had previously been a member of the David Cross Band (ex-King Crimson). Together with Cross, they released two albums, "Closer Than Skin" in 2005 and "Alive In The Underworld" in 2008. Since then, Casey became a successful composer for orchestras, with performances all over the U.S., China, Australia, Bulgaria, France, the U.K. and on TV and film. Casey and Sullivan started M-Opus as a platform to perform and write original music in their favourite style, symphonic rock of the 1970s. Their first album is "1975 Triptych" on Rude Chord Records, out on February 2nd 2015…

"The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time" is a 2003 special issue of American magazine Rolling Stone, and a related book published in 2005. The lists presented were compiled based on votes from selected rock musicians, critics, and industry figures, and predominantly feature British and American music from the 1960s and 1970s. From 2007 onwards, the magazine published similarly titled lists in other countries around the world.

A sequel of sorts to his earlier On the Beach, King of the Beach continues the laid-back mood of the earlier album but is (despite the goofy title) a more mature and unified work. It's one of his best albums and is a return to form after the film soundtrack La Passione and the more electronic sounds of The Road to Hell Part 2. Written primarily during a vacation in the Turks and Caicos Islands, it's replete with lots of beach and summer imagery in the titles ("King of the Beach," "All Summer Long," "Sandwriting," "Sail Away") as well as the lyrics, which were originally written as poems. A remix of "All Summer Long" was a big dance hit in Ibiza and other Mediterranean hot spots. A good album for a summer day, with a soulful mellowness flowing through the tracks.

Between 1974-1976, the Glitter Band released a total of nine singles on the U.K. Bell label, running up seven Top 20 hits, one American club smash, and emerging, at the end of the day, with two bona fide classics – their debut, "Angel Face," and, precisely midway through the sequence, "Goodbye My Love." All have now been recycled so many times that there can barely be an interested soul in the world who does not own the entire catalog in one permutation or another…
