Let's Get It On is the twelfth studio album by the American soul singer and songwriter Marvin Gaye. It was released on August 28, 1973, by the Motown subsidiary label Tamla Records on LP.
Recording sessions for the album took place during June 1970 to July 1973 at Hitsville U.S.A. and Golden World Studio in Detroit, and at Hitsville West in Los Angeles. Serving as Gaye's first venture into the funk genre, Let's Get It On also incorporates smooth soul and doo-wop styles alongside sexually suggestive lyrics, leading to one writer's description of it as "one of the most sexually charged albums ever recorded". Gaye infused ideas of spiritual healing in songs about sex and romance, in part as a way of coping with childhood abuses from his father Marvin Gay Sr., which had stunted his sexuality.

Литл Ричард родился в многодетной негритянской семье в Мейконе (шт. Джорджия). С детства он хорошо знал духовную музыку (его семья состояла в приходе церкви Адвентистов Седьмого дня, он также посещал церкви Пятидесятников) и поэтому вполне естественно, что его самые ранние (и мало кем замеченные) записи начала 1950-х гг., исполненные в стилях буги-вуги и ритм-энд-блюза, несли в себе звучание госпелз. Однако его экспрессивная манера игры на пианино, агрессивный ритм и энергичные возгласы дали рождение новой формы музыки, которую вскоре стали называть рок-н-роллом (на самого музыканта также большое влияние оказали Рой Браун и Билли Райт). Сам Литл Ричард всегда был убеждён, что именно он был, по его словам, «архитектором рок-н-ролла», поэтому неоднократно называл и называет себя «настоящим королём рок-н-ролла»

Soultrane is a studio album by the jazz musician John Coltrane. It was released in 1958 through Prestige Records, with catalogue no. 7142.

One of the greatest and most underated jazz singers, Lee Wiley is presented on this CD as an older, more mature singer. Perhaps there is not the same verve or timbre in her voice, but her great timing and feel for the song is evident. Track 3 and track 19 are worth the price of this CD, alone. On the first, she sings a song that should be a classic melody: "You're Lucky To Me". But this version is a slower pace than she usually sang, such as with Eddie Condon's groups at the Town Hall Jazz Concerts in 1944. It has a memorable flavor. On track 19, which is one of the unique cuts on this CD which leave in re-takes and comments on some recordings, and Lee, who had been very ill and passed away a few years later, can be heard saying that she didn't like singing it because it depressed her. This is not only good music, it is history. There have been many imitators of Lee, but none did it quite like she did.

Gustav Holst was among those few classical composers to exert a major influence on rock music and popular music in the mid- to late- 20th century -- which is all rather ironic, since he passed away in 1934. Holst was part of the early- 20th century school of English composers usually referred to as post-Romantics -- along with his friend Ralph Vaughan Williams, with whom he shared a common interest in English folksong, he helped advance the cause of distinctly English orchestral music far beyond the boundaries of England; but much of Holst's music, as distinct from that of his contemporaries, was also steeped in Eastern influences that made it unique.
