Van Morrison and the guests selected and recorded some of his songs from the catalog of 360 songs across his career. Deliberately steering away from his more well-known classics, Van enlisted some of the artists he most respects to perform these songs with him to re-craft and re-imagine them. The album was recorded in his home town of Belfast and London in the United Kingdom over the last year, using a variety of musicians and fresh arrangements.

Simply Red release their first new studio album in eight years with Big Love out June 1st on East West Records. When the band announced a massive world tour to celebrate their 30th anniversary last autumn, main man Mick Hucknall started thinking about recording again. “Once I began wondering how Simply Red were going to sound, I started writing songs,” says Mick. And once he started, he couldn’t stop. Big Love is the first Simply Red album to feature only original compositions since 1995’s ‘Life’. All twelve tracks are written by Mick Hucknall and produced by Andy Wright. Highlights include the celebratory first single ‘Shine On’ driven by their trademark blue-eyed soul sound and ‘The Ghost Of Love’, a big soul song punctuated by wah-wah guitar and the kind of bold orchestral strokes that once powered Barry White and his Love Unlimited.

Into the Fire is the fifth studio album by the Canadian rock artist Bryan Adams.

Into the Fire sold over 2 million units worldwide, peaking at number 7 on the US Billboard 200 chart and reaching high positions in charts worldwide. The album was recorded at Adams' home in Vancouver, Canada.

The concept for The Double Sunrise is very specific, but it's executed brilliantly. Very few of us will experience what it's like to live our life cruising from island to island through crystalline waters on a luxurious yacht. This is why it's handy to have records like Lanu's The Double Sunrise around. It's one of those records that evokes a place and a feeling that most of us only ever dream about. Lanu is the brainchild of restless Melbourne musician Lance Ferguson, who is best known as the leader of soul pop champions The Bamboos (full disclosure: Lance is also an announcer on Double J). His previous work as Lanu has seen him make some slick soulful pop music, but this album has been specifically influenced by the idyllic perception outsiders have of the South Seas and the exotica music inspired by that part of the world.

Как там говорят про испытания, подкарауливающие каждую группу? Первый альбом, кризис второго, искушения славой, семьей, возраст, разногласия, что-то там еще…
Приятно отметить, что датчане, благополучно существующие уже 32 года, миновали все эти мифические подводные камни, пусть и не без потерь. Эффектно начав в восьмидесятые, благополучно пережив непростые девяностые, уверенно отмахавшись от нулевых, группа принялась развеивать очередное суеверие, встретившееся на длинном и извилистом пути. А именно – выпускать тринадцатый альбом.
В принципе, достаточно только первой композиции «Mother Of All Lies», чтобы заинтересованно поднять голову и сосредоточенно начать внимать. Конечно, это те самые "Прэтти Мэйдс", которые нам знакомы уже не первое столетие, но одновременно и не совсем как бы они. Повеяло переменами… Очень сильная вещь, с великолепным припевом, традиционно плавно вырастающем из куплета. Следующая, «To Fool A Nation», словно была заготовлена группой для кратковременного отступления – кинули пробный шар, и теперь внимательно наблюдают за реакцией слушателей – пойдет, или нет? И, только оставшись удовлетворенными результатом, запускают остальной альбом, начав с парной «Confession/The Iceman». Собственно, это одна песня, состоящая из двух частей, где первая лишь призвана подготовить почву для второй. С чем она с успехом и справляется, умело нагнетая обстановку.

“Passione” is a Stunning Collection of Mediterranean Love Songs Featuring Duets with Jennifer Lopez, Nelly Furtado and the late Edith Piaf; Album Reunites Bocelli with Multiple Grammy-winning Producer David Foster.

Andrea Bocelli had the idea for his latest album, Cinema, a long time ago, when he realized that many of his favorite songs from childhood made their debut on the silver screen. he album, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Classical Albums chart and at No. 10 on the Billboard 200, spans film and musical genres, as well as languages, with one song in Spanish and seven of the 13 tracks in his native Italian. One of those Italian songs is a duet with pop star Ariana Grande, a favorite of Bocelli's children.

Melanie released her debut album Cry Baby in 2015 to rave reviews, with critics applauding her infectious blend of pop choruses, R&B infused melodies and hip-hop beats, seeing it debut at #5 on the Top Albums Chart, a stellar #6 on the Billboard Top 200, while also coming in at #1 on the Top Alternative Albums chart.
