Barcelona is the second solo album recorded by Freddie Mercury, frontman of popular British rock band Queen, and operatic soprano Montserrat Caballé. Released in 1988. It is the second and final solo album recorded by Mercury.
After Barcelona was selected to host the 1992 Summer Olympics, Mercury was approached to write a song as a theme for the forthcoming games. The idea was to create a duet with Caballé, as she is from the city. He had been a long-standing admirer of her and she in turn grew to respect his talents very highly. They decided to work on an album together, with Mercury and Mike Moran taking the creative lead as songwriters. Mercury and Moran made and sent her tapes of the music with Mercury singing in falsetto as a guide vocal for Montserrat's parts. As they rarely had an opening in their schedule to meet, her parts were recorded at another location.

Some notable hits, such as "Blue Morning, Blue Day" and "Break It Up" are omitted.

Behind the Mask is the 15th studio album by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released in 1990. It was the first album released by the band after the departure of guitarist Lindsey Buckingham. He was replaced by Billy Burnette and Rick Vito, both guitar players, singers and songwriters. Fleetwood Mac thus became a six-piece band with four singer/songwriters. The album was not as successful as its predecessor, Tango in the Night, nor did it spawn any big hit singles although "Save Me" made the US Top 40, while "Love Is Dangerous" and "Skies the Limit" enjoyed some airplay. "Save Me" and "Skies the Limit" were much more successful in Canada, where they both reached the Top 30. Though it barely reached the US Top 20, the album entered the UK Albums Chart at number 1 and achieved platinum status there. Following the album's release and subsequent world tour, bandmembers Stevie Nicks and Rick Vito left the band, though Nicks would rejoin in 1997.

FireHouse is the debut album by the American glam metal band FireHouse. Released in 1990, it launched the group into stardom.

К счастью, к моменту записи "Love Gun" творческие силы команды были полностью восстановлены. Соответственно, и сам конечный продукт получился просто отличным. На этом диске можно найти все, что только может понадобится любому поклоннику Киссов. Идеально соблюден баланс авторства - из десяти песен четыре от Пола, четыре от Джина, и по одной от Питера и Эйса. Материал мистера Стэнли, как обычно, наиболее потенциально метит в хиты. И если безумно энергичной "Tomorrow And Tonight", к сожалению, не удалось попасть в золотой фонд хард рока, то ураганный открывающий боевик "I Stole Your Love" и мелодичный заглавный шлягер "Love Gun" выполнили эту задачу на сто процентов.

Born Again единственный альбом с вокалистом Джейми Ст. Джеймсом из Black ‘n Blue. Критикам альбом пришелся по душе, но многие фанаты были разочарованы.

Vivid is the debut studio album by the American hard rock band Living Colour, released on May 3, 1988, through Epic Records. It was one of the most popular albums of 1988, reaching No. 6 on the US Billboard 200 chart and certified double platinum by the RIAA. The music on the album is very eclectic and varied, encompassing the genres, hard rock, funk, soul, jazz, glam metal, pop, heavy metal, arena rock, punk, and rap. The album is also featured in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

Этот альбом является концептуальным не только по текстам, но и по восприятию. Пауз между песнями практически нет, поэтому часто невозможно понять, где одна песня, а где другая. Но это нисколько не вредит альбому, так как воспринимается он как единое целое произведение. Здесь почти нет драматизма и накала страстей, подобно дебютнику. Это просто душевная мелодичная музыка, печальная, романтичная и ненапрягающая, слушать которую одно удовольствие.

Sammy Hagar. Ten 13.Released on the struggling Beyond record label in 2000, Ten 13 wasn't exactly a well-publicized release. An impressive list of artists joined Sammy Hagar around the turn of the century at Beyond only to release hefty musical but commercially non-viable recordings. Hagar fared better than most due to his solid fan base -- with which he managed to maintain a very close connection through touring, entertaining at his very popular bar and restaurant Cabo Wabo in Mexico, and by continuing to produce music generally true to his extremely popular '80s solo and Van Halen material.
