Legacy Recordings

Paul Simons "Graceland" är ett sådant album som skall finnas i allas skivsamlingar. Chansen för detta är nu ännu större då albumet på nytt släpps på vinyl.

När Scorpions gick ut med att dom skulle lägga ner bandet och åka på avskedsturné fick dom direkt frågan när dom skulle återförenas. Efter succén med studioalbumet "Sting in the tail" och avskedsturnén bestämde man sig för att gå in i studion igen för att ge fansen ett speciellt "extranummer". Man spelade in sju av sina största hits på nytt och sex låtar av andra artister som betytt något alldeles speciellt för Scorpions som grupp. Resultatet är albumet "Comeblack".

Simon Paul: One Trick Pony [Vinyl LP]

The album by David Gilmour, 'Luck and Strange' was recorded over five months in Brighton and London and is Gilmour's first album of new material in nine years. The record was produced by David and Charlie Andrew, best known for his work with ALT-J and Marika Hackman, with lyrics mostly written by Polly Samson, Gilmour's co-writer for the past thirty years. The album features eight new tracks along with a beautiful reworking of The Montgolfier Brothers' 'Between Two Points', which sees Romany Gilmour, who performs backing vocals across the album, and can also be heard on harp.<br/><br/>Musicians contributing to the record include Guy Pratt & Tom Herbert on bass, Adam Betts, Steve Gadd and Steve DiStanislao on drums, Rob Gentry & Roger Eno on keyboards and the string and choral arrangements are by Will Gardner. The title track also features the late Pink Floyd keyboard player Richard Wright, recorded in 2007 during a 'Barn Jam' at David's house. The album's cover image, photographed and designed by renowned artist Anton Corbijn, is inspired by lyrics written by Charlie Gilmour for the album's final song 'Scattered'.

Paul Simon, who has consistently crafted some of the most influential and enduring work in the history of music, has announced the release of his highly anticipated musical work, Seven Psalms. Intended to be listened to as one continuous piece, the 33-minute, seven-movement composition transcends the concept of the "album". <br/> <br/>Recorded entirely on acoustic instruments, and predominantly performed by Paul, Seven Psalms showcases Simon's craft at its finest and most captivating, simply with his voice and guitar. <br/> <br/>A stunning, intricately layered work, it's a record which establishes an engaging and meditative, almost hymnal soundscape, with Paul's lyrics providing the gravitational center for constellations of sound woven from guitar strings and other acoustic instrumentation - including choral elements from the highly-regarded British vocal ensemble VOCES8, and a beautiful vocal appearance by Edie Brickell.<br/> <br/>True to the origin of psalms as hymns meant to be sung rather than spoken, Seven Psalms reaches back to the very genesis of folk music: King David's Psalms. The result is a quietly moving musical experience which uncovers a wealth of subtle details with every repeated listen. A step apart from anything Paul Simon has released before, Seven Psalms defies categorization. <br/> <br/>The record's tone is complemented by its artwork, which features a close-up extract of "Two Owls" by the celebrated landscape artist Thomas Moran.<br/>Produced by Paul Simon and Kyle Crusham, Seven Psalms is a single suite of music.

Jimi Hendrix musik lever vidare. Albumet "People, Hell & Angels" består av 12 tidigare outgivna studioinspelningar från 1968-1970 som ännu en gång visar att Jimi Hendrix var ett musikaliskt geni. Bland musikerna på skivan märks förutom Jimi själv, Billy Cox, Buddy Miles, Stepen Stills och Lonnie Youngblood. Albumet har sammanställts och producerats av Eddie Kramer, Janie Hendrix och John McDermott.
