The Beach Boys («Бич Бойз») — американская рок-группа, известность которой первоначально принесли их ранние песни о пляжах, море и сёрфинге, однако, изменив звучание, они первыми выпустили в 1966 году концептуальный альбом « Pet Sounds », оказавшийся, по мнению многих специалистов, переломным в контексте развития рок-музыки 1960-х гг.

Осенью 1961 года Брайан Уилсон и его двоюродный брат Майк Лав сочинили песню о сёрфинге «Surfin’» по предложению брата Брайана Денниса Уилсона, занимавшегося этим спортом. Тогда же была сделана запись песни с участием Карла Уилсона и Алана Джардина — так была создана группа The Pendletones. Однако когда члены группы распаковали коробки с первыми отпечатанными экземплярами своего дебютного сингла «Surfin’», то обнаружили, что их название было изменено на The Beach Boys руководством Candix Records, посчитавшим, что оно более подходит тематике нового жанра. «Surfin’» вышел 3 октября 1961 года и занял 75 место в американском хит-параде.

Двадцать второй студийный альбом американского певца Принса, выпущенный 24 августа 1999 года на лейбле Warner Bros. Records. Записи шли в 1985-1994 годах, а выход первоначально планировался в 1994 году, но задержался на три года. Это был последний альбом, который был выпущен Warner Bros., чтобы выполнить свои обязательства по контракту 1992 года. The Vault: Old Friend 4 Sale не достиг высоких мест в чартах: в хит-параде Великобритании был лишь на позиции № 47, а в американском чарте Billboard 200 лишь на № 85, и в итоге по тиражу не получил золотого статуса в Великобритании и США.

Le robe che ha detto Adriano (рус. «Шмотки, о которых говорит Адриано») — студийный альбом итальянского певца и актёра Адриано Челентано, вышедший в 1969 году.После выхода альбома Adriano Rock, Челентано вернулся к прежней «формуле» — большинство треков данного диска являются ранее издававшимися композициями, за исключением песен «Lirica d’inverno» (рус. Зимняя песня) и «L’uomo nasce nudo» (рус. Человек рождается обнажённым).

Songs of Surrender is an album of re-recorded songs by Irish rock band U2. Produced by guitarist the Edge, it was released on 17 March 2023 on Island Records and Interscope Records. Largely the effort of the Edge and lead vocalist Bono, the album comprises re-recorded and reinterpreted versions of 40 songs from the group's back catalogue, many in stripped-down and acoustic arrangements. The album is a companion to Bono's memoir, Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story (2022), which was structured into 40 chapters titled after U2 songs. Rearranged versions of the songs were first included in the audiobook edition of the memoir, and were performed by Bono during the book's promotional tour.

This is the fourth release in the last two years or so from The Apaches, an album that sees them maintain an “album a year” pace - since their 2016 debut. This is without a doubt their best yet - if you take surf, spaghetti western and Euro instrumentals, this would have elements of all three, but veer closer towards the spaghetti/Euro sounds. The songs are well-written, melodic and catchy, the members are all masters of their instruments, and the production is spot on. Undoubtedly one of the top releases of 2020!

The Dream of the Blue Turtles is the first solo album by English musician Sting, released in the United States on 1 June 1985. The album reached number three on the UK Albums Chart and number two on the US Billboard 200.
In the US the album spawned four singles, "If You Love Somebody Set Them Free", "Fortress Around Your Heart", "Russians" and "Love Is the Seventh Wave". The album earned Grammy nominations for Album of the Year, Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, Best Jazz Instrumental Performance and Best Engineered Recording.

2007 compilation that celebrates Rod's early '70s Mercury Records output just after the left the Faces. Rod was launched onto the world stage as a member of one of the great rock 'n' roll bands of the early '70s The Faces. Not long after this, Mercury launched him as a solo artist with immediate results and thus began a hugely successful life-spanning career for the mighty Rod Stewart. This is a collection of hits from his Mercury years - not forgetting that Rod is a gifted songwriter ('Maggie May', 'You Wear It Well', 'Mandolin Wind') and a genius at interpreting the songs of masters such as Hendrix, Elton John, Chuck Berry and the Stones - and making them his own. 19 tracks.

Peter Straker, concert and cabaret star of stage and screen, and long term confidante of Freddie Mercury, released three hybrid rock / cabaret masterworks. These long out of print and highly sought after cult classic, cross-over albums were originally released between 1977 and 1980 and were all produced by stellar production talents.

After the success of the Vol 1 Box comes Vol 2 of the Classic Album Collection. Spanning from "Old New Borrowed and Blue" to 2013's classic soul themed collection "Rain or Shine" the box comes in a slipcase and contains 5 albums housed in mini LP type sleeves. Paul Carrack, the hugely respected singer-songwriter who is the voice of many of the landmark British pop songs of the past 40 years, released a stunning new album, Soul Shadows, on January 15, 2016. The record sees him at the absolute peak of his powers as a vocalist, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Paul Carrack surely deserves the latter-day title of the hardest-working man in showbusiness. Soul Shadows came in the wake of Carrack's latest sojourn as featured vocalist and keyboard player in Eric Clapton's band for his UK and international tour, the result of their longtime friendship and mutual respect. The new album was the follow-up to 2013's warmly-received Rain Or Shine, which maintained Paul's recurring status as a staple of the BBC Radio 2 playlist.
