River of Dreams is the twelfth and final studio album by American singer-songwriter Billy Joel, released on August 10, 1993. He stopped recording new music as a performer after this album although he has subsequently released live albums, and composed the music for an instrumental album performed by Richard Joo.

Convivendo is the eighth album by Biagio Antonacci, published in two parts as a sign of protest against the record companies and the excessive prices of the discs, but also to try to counter the growing problem of piracy. To limit costs, prove that you can make good music and to achieve success without spending big bucks, the album was recorded in a recording studio in Bologna, the home of the singer.

Альбом ознаменовал значительные перемены в жизни и музыке Рода Стюарта, и прежде всего действительно "пересечение Атлантики" и переезд на ПМЖ в Америку, конкретно в Лос-Анджелес. Так же, альбом сильно отличался от всего, что Стюарт делал до того и представлял собой полный контраст к пластинкам Faces. Доморощенное качество предыдущих его сольных работ затмило безупречное американское производство и отполированное до блеска звучание. Он быстро поднялся на 1-е место в британских чартах, держался на топе пять недель, а всего 88 и стал не только бестселлером года, но и десятилетия.

По своему уровню "A Spanner in the Works" - гладкий, аккуратный альбом без каких-то резких взлетов, но и без откровенных падений. Его отличительная особенность заключается в интимной атмосфере, спокойном настроении, размеренности теплоте и душевности. Все это, а также акустический привкус на большинстве треков, явно унаследовано от недавнего "Unplugged".

Symphonicities is the tenth studio album by English musician Sting, released on 14 July 2010 on Deutsche Grammophon. This is his first studio album featuring new recordings of existing songs drawn from both his solo career and from The Police (the second one to date being the 2019 studio album My Songs). The title of the album is a play on that of The Police' 1983 album Synchronicity.

Swedish popster Johnson's debut is rooted in classic radio tricks: big sweeping choruses, crisp production, catchy tunes. But there's not much depth to the songs, nor much to his voice. It's pleasant enough modern rock, equally forgettable and disposable.

Singles is the greatest hits album of singer Alison Moyet, released in 1995. The album includes two previously unreleased tracks, Moyet's version of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" and "Solid Wood", as well as a number of hits from the singer's stint in 1980s electro-pop band Yazoo.

Raindancing is the second studio album by singer/songwriter Alison Moyet. The album includes four single releases; "Is This Love?" (co-written by the Eurythmics' David A. Stewart under his 'Jean/Manu Guiot' pseudonym), "Weak in the Presence of Beauty", "Ordinary Girl" and "Sleep Like Breathing", a duet with David Freeman of the band The Lover Speaks.

Alisha Rules the World is the debut album of British duo Alisha's Attic, released on 11 November 1996. The album received positive reviews, and went platinum in the following year. It sold 400,000 copies in the UK (with another 100,000 in Japan), and the four singles all went into the top twenty in the British charts.

Несмотря на высокий статус в чартах, "Tonight's the Night" забанили некоторые радиостанции и не крутили в эфире. Так или иначе, всё это только играло на руку Стюарту, завоёвывавшему Америку своей репутацией любителя громких вечеринок и разбивателя сердец знаменитых актрис и моделей. В этом отношении, конечно, после провинциальной Англии парню было где разгуляться.

War is the third studio album by Irish rock band U2. It was produced by Steve Lillywhite, and was released on 28 February 1983 on Island Records. The album is regarded as U2's first overtly political album, in part because of songs like "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and "New Year's Day", as well as the title, which stems from the band's perception of the world at the time; lead vocalist Bono stated that "war seemed to be the motif for 1982."

The Best of 1990–2000 is the second greatest hits album by Irish rock band U2. It was released on 5 November 2002 through Island Records, except in the United States where the album was released on the Interscope label as a single-disc CD compilation. The Best of 1990–2000 & B-Sides was released on the same day with a second disc featuring 14 of the B-sides released between 1990 and 2000 and a bonus DVD with a trailer for the album and three other segments. A video album of the same name was later released in December 2002.

Rattle and Hum is a hybrid live/studio album by Irish rock band U2, and a companion rockumentary film directed by Phil Joanou. The album was produced by Jimmy Iovine and was released on 10 October 1988, while the film was distributed by Paramount Pictures and was released on 27 October 1988. Following the breakthrough success of the band's previous studio album, The Joshua Tree, the Rattle and Hum project captures their continued experiences with American roots music on the Joshua Tree Tour, further incorporating elements of blues rock, folk rock, and gospel music into their sound. A collection of new studio tracks, live performances, and cover songs, the project includes recordings at Sun Studios in Memphis and collaborations with Bob Dylan, B.B. King, and Harlem's New Voices of Freedom gospel choir.
