Japanese original greatest hits album from Sarah Brightman. Features the high-fidelity SHM-CD format.

Maroon 5, которые раньше делали акцент на роковую составляющую своей музыки, теперь выпустили самый попсовый альбом под названием “Overexposed”. Название очевидно. Бенд долго сдерживал мощь своей «попсовости». Альбом получился очень интересным, а качественную музыку слушать было всегда приятно.

Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 rounds up the handful of singles that weren't included on Elton John's first Greatest Hits collection ("Levon," "Tiny Dancer") and adds the highlights from Caribou, Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, and Rock of the Westies ("The Bitch Is Back," "Someone Saved My Life Tonight," "Island Girl," "Grow Some Funk of Your Own," "I Feel Like a Bullet [In the Gun of Robert Ford]"), plus two non-LP hit singles ("Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," "Philadelphia Freedom") and John's version of "Pinball Wizard," taken from the soundtrack to Tommy. In short, it's an excellent continuation of the first collection, and taken together, they function as an ideal singles retrospective of the most successful singles artist of the early '70s.

Десятый студийный альбом Шакиры «Shakira» воспринимается в том ключе, что занятие музыкой для певицы стало носить, прежде всего, коммерческий интерес, чем желание серьезно творить в жанре латинской поп-музыки. Альбом не то чтобы плох совсем, напротив, в нем есть четыре песни, а совсем честно три, которые весьма крепко спродюсированы и представляют собой качественные и цельные композиции.

Девятый «ребёнок» Шакиры «The sun comes out». В испаноязычной версии носит имя «Sale el sol». Варианты предназначенных для бодрых танцев номеров «Loca» и «Rabiosa» в сотрудничестве с El Cata отодвинуты в бонусную часть, а записанные с рэпперами Dizzee Rascal и Питбулем, наоборот подтянуты поближе. Хитами им быть обязательно, но нами ощущаются как пример спекуляции, ведь плясовые латиноамериканские ритмы имеют спрос всегда и повсюду, а сомнительные речёвки играют роль дополнительной изюминки. Как говорят игроки на бирже, надо дружить с трендом, да и можно ли устоять от такого соблазна после оглушительного успеха дуэта с Wyclef Jean («Hips Dont Lie»), блестящей своевременной поп-песенки.

Trafalgar is the Bee Gees' ninth album (seventh internationally), released in September 1971 in the US, and November 1971 in the UK. The album was a moderate hit in the United States, and peaked at No. 34. The lead single "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart?" was the first Bee Gees' No. 1 single in the United States but failed to chart in Britain as did the album. "Don't Wanna Live Inside Myself" was released as the second single and only reached No. 57 on the USA charts. "Israel" was only released in the Netherlands and reached No. 22. Trafalgar is noted in Robert Dimery's book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

To Whom It May Concern is the tenth album released by the Bee Gees, released in October 1972. It was the follow-up, and continued the melancholic and personal sound of its predecessor Trafalgar. The album was recognised as "a farewell to the old Bee Gees" as the album marked the end of an era for the group in several ways as it was their last album to be recorded at IBC Studios, in London, their last with conductor and arranger Bill Shepherd who had guided them since 1967, and their last under their first contract with Robert Stigwood. Even some of the songs were old ones finished up or rewritten for the occasion (in the case of "I Can Bring Love").

Living Eyes is the Bee Gees' sixteenth original album (fourteenth internationally), released in 1981. The Bee Gees turned away from the disco sound that was prominent on their work in the mid-late 1970s with this album. However the album was not a commercial success, perhaps due to them being so strongly associated with disco. It sold 750,000 copies worldwide, compared to 30 million copies of their previous studio album Spirits Having Flown in 1979. While it did not sell well in either the UK or the US, the album itself was a Top 40 hit in the majority of territories in which it saw wide release.

Life in a Tin Can is the Bee Gees' eleventh studio album (ninth worldwide), released in January 1973. The Bee Gees moved their base of operations from England to Los Angeles to record Life in a Tin Can. However, it was unable to prevent a commercial decline with the album criticised for a lack of innovation. Despite its low sales and poor chart performance, Life in a Tin Can was awarded "Album of the Year" by Record World magazine. It was the first Bee Gees album to bear the RSO label in the US.

2 Years On was the eighth album released by English rock band Bee Gees and their sixth international release. This LP was released in November 1970. The album reached No. 32 on the US charts, and sold 375,000 copies worldwide. The album saw the return of Robin Gibb to the group after the earlier disagreement and subsequent split following Odessa. 2 Years On was also the first album to feature drummer Geoff Bridgford, who remained a full-time member of the group until 1972. The best-known track is "Lonely Days". Released as the first single by the reunited brothers, it charted high in the US No. 3 in Billboard, No. 1 in rival chart Cashbox, but peaked at No. 33 in the United Kingdom.

ABBA - 40/40 "The Best Selection" - сборник выпущенный в Японии к 40-летней годовщине первого большого успеха легендарной шведской группы. Выбор 40 песен был произведен путем опроса более 9000 японских фанов.

The album was re-released as Turn It Up Louder on 18 October 2010. It was preceded by the release of "Broken Arrow" as its lead single, and includes nine other bonus songs. In 2010, it was reported that Interscope Records was planning to release Turn It Up in the United States with new songs in early 2011, which never materialised.
