Momentary Lapse of Reason is the thirteenth studio album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd. It was released in the UK and US on 7 September 1987 by EMI and Columbia. It was the first Pink Floyd album since the departure of bass guitarist, singer, and songwriter Roger Waters in 1985.
Unlike many Pink Floyd albums, A Momentary Lapse of Reason is not a concept album and is instead a collection of songs written by guitarist David Gilmour, sometimes with outside songwriters. It followed Gilmour's decision to include material recorded for his third solo album on a new Pink Floyd album with drummer Nick Mason and keyboardist Richard Wright.

Delicate Sound of Thunder is the first entirely live album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd. It was recorded over five nights at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Island, New York in August 1988 and mixed at Abbey Road Studios in September 1988. It was released on 22 November 1988, through EMI Records in the United Kingdom and Columbia Records in the United States.

With Mike Oldfield clearly beginning his shift away from ambitious multi-instrumental epics into more pop-inflected territory, what better time could there have been for his label to remind listeners that he'd always had an eye for the three-minute single? True, nothing here is as overt as "Family Man," the hit that he and his band wrote for Hall & Oates, but still a cover of ABBA's "Arrival" swiftly followed by such stirring delights as "Portsmouth," "In Dulci Jubilo," "On Horseback," "The Sailor's Hornpipe," and a pulsating live take of the disco hit "Guilty" depict a musician who was a far cry from the super-serious prodigy that the media still preferred to view him as.

Antimatter - очень многогранный коллектив, который с помощью своей музыки старается поделиться со слушателем своим состоянием души, своими чувствами, мыслями. Музыка чарует, восхищает и заставляет переживать. Она становится проводником в ваш собственный внутренний мир. Музыка Antimatter уникальна и неповторима, редко можно услышать такую искренность в песнях, в каждую свою работу парни вкладывают частичку себя, что отражается на их творчестве.

The Best of the Pink Floyd, also issued as Masters of Rock, is a compilation album of early Pink Floyd music, concentrating on singles and album tracks from 1967 to 1968.

Теперь конечно всем известно авторство, точнее, ответственного за этот "бардак", ныне известный товарищ, гуру прог-металла, легендарный голландский прог-музыкант Арьен Энтони Лукассен. Lucassen является-рок композитором, певцом, мульти-инструменталистом и продюсером, самый известный из его проект - Ayreon. "Странное хобби" выбыло из печати в течение более десяти лет и в настоящее время очень востребованный пункт коллекционеров. К счастью для поклонников, наконец, в честь 20-летия, этот диск в 2016 году был переиздан, на этот раз уже безо всякой тайны. Это издание включает в себя четыре бонус-трека,которые ранее не были доступны на CD. Об этом переиздании Арьен сказал:-"Ещё в 1996 году мне было так весело записывать Strange Hobby! Было здорово отдохнуть от записи моих сложных, напыщенных айреонских прог-экстравагантностей и выпустить пар, выпустив эти рок-кавер-версии моих любимых песен шестидесятых годов. Я надеюсь, вам понравится слушать этот психоделический взрыв из прошлого так же, как мне понравилось записывать его! Круто!

Вот теперь настало время Guilt Machine. Который от основного детища Лукассена отличается лишь масштабом, а если точнее, то сильным его уменьшением. Всего трое музыкантов, всего один вокалист, всего 6 песен (4 из которых, правда, длиной за 10 минут). А вот стиль остался тот же, рука Арьена чувствуется в каждой ноте, а электронные эффекты и синтезаторы так вообще в полном составе переползли сюда из последнего (на данный момент времени) альбома Ayreon. Каждый может воспринимать этот факт и как плюс, и как минус. «Тот самый вкус!» - порадуются поклонники. «Ayreon для бедных!» — заклеймят позором разочаровавшиеся. И в чём-то правы будут и те, и другие.

Vanilla Fudge is an American rock band known predominantly for their slow extended heavy rock arrangements of contemporary hit songs, most notably "You Keep Me Hangin' On".
The band's original line–up — vocalist and organist Mark Stein, bassist and vocalist Tim Bogert, lead guitarist/vocalist Vince Martell, and drummer and vocalist Carmine Appice — recorded five albums during the years 1967–69, before disbanding in 1970. The band is currently touring with three of the four original members: Stein, Martell, and Appice with Pete Bremy on bass as Bogert retired in 2009.

During my time at ProgPower Europe 2019, I heard a lot of chat about a band called Thoughts Factory. I’d never heard of them before but when there’s a buzz about a band at this great festival, I tend to sit up and take notice because the punters know their music. Regrettably my inability to get to bed at a reasonable hour on any night in Baarlo meant that I missed the impromptu listening session that was set up to hear this record. Nevertheless, I made it my mission to ensure that I checked out Thoughts Factory when time allowed.

Leeds 6-piece frog-rock groovers Shaku have self released their debut album Maku, as the album is a divine representation of their creativity and musicianship which shines through even more so in their stellar live performances.
The group have a fantastic genre-fluid identity that sees them slip down the cracks between Canterbury scene prog, classic blues, funk-rock, UK jazz and epic old school rock. Having interviewed them back in May 2019, the band were ready back then to record after two years of relentless gigging, warfare, bloodshed and liquid consumption, and they did so live at The Nave Studios, Pudsey, and also in a living room in Burley. The theme of the album is a timeline of Shaku, covering a lot of musical and lyrical ground that each represent a different period in the band which has evolved over time, both together as a group and as individuals.

Italy has always been a prime center for music, from the days of classical all the up to the modern day. SECRET ALLIANCE confirms my opinion with their outer cosmic Progressive Hard Rock album “Solar Warden”. SECRET ALLIANCE was founded by guitarist Gianluca Galli (SILVER HORSES & MANTRA) initially as his solo project, but found he was wanting to create music with some extra complexity involved. He recruited the incredible Ricardo Confessori (ex-ANGRA) and fantastic hard rock bassist Tony Franklin to round out the constant members in every song. There are many guest musicians on this futuristic/sci-fi inspired album including Frank Gambale (CHICK COREA BAND) and Alex Masi. These great musicians create a futuristic world in sound.

Gregg Olson and Scarlet Hollow have returned with what may well be the band’s best work to date.
Nick Katona, Melodic Revolution Records:
“I can still remember vividly receiving the phone about Gregg having a stroke, I was devastated, we had just made plans for Scarlet Hollow’s debut release and the band was rehearsing for their first tour. The prognosis that night was not very positive, it was grim in fact, but we kept close tabs on Gregg’s health, it wasn’t so much that we were worried about album sales. We were worried about a person that had become a friend, I first met Gregg on MySpace in 2006 and Melodic Revolution picked up the self-titled Echoes Landing for release. It’s because of this band that we formed the record label.
The good news is that over the next couple of years Gregg’s was getting better and his recovery seemed like a miracle. Fast track to today Scarlet Hollow has returned stronger, more focused and sounding better than ever. Get ready to take a musical journey with one of the most important bands today.”
