The 1998 release Classics Live!: Complete pulls together the 16 tracks released on the 1986 album Classics Live! and its 1987 sequel Classics Live!, Vol. 2 onto one disc. Both albums contain performances cut at the Orpheum Theater in Boston in 1984 -- the first dates from February, the second from December -- which may not be the peak of Aerosmith's popularity, but they're on the verge of the late-'80s comeback and are starting to sound revitalized. For fans, they're worth hearing and this is the best way to hear them, as it contains both albums on one disc.

How Dare You! is the fourth album by British band 10cc. Released in 1976, it included UK hit singles "I'm Mandy Fly Me" and "Art for Art's Sake". It was also the last 10cc album to feature the original line-up of Eric Stewart, Graham Gouldman, Kevin Godley, and Lol Creme, with the latter two departing to work on their own musical projects, and eventually becoming music video pioneers. The album was the band's third to feature cover artwork by the Hipgnosis creative team.

Bloody Tourists was the sixth studio album by 10cc and the second to be produced following the band's 1976 split. It yielded the singles "Dreadlock Holiday", which reached No.1 in the UK in August 1978, and "Reds in My Bed", which did not chart. "For You and I" was issued as a double a-side single with "I'm Not in Love" in the autumn of 1979 but also didn't chart. "For you and I" was also issued in the US, with promo copies being available as a 12" single.

Heartbeat City is the fifth studio album by American rock band the Cars, released on March 13, 1984, by Elektra Records. The band produced the album with Robert John "Mutt" Lange.
This marks the band's first album not produced by long-time producer Roy Thomas Baker. It also represented a return to the success of the band's self-titled debut album, with critic Robert Christgau noting that "the glossy approach the Cars invented has made this the best year for pure pop in damn near twenty years, and it's only fair that they should return so confidently to form." Numerous tracks from the album received airplay on modern rock and AOR stations, with the singles "Drive" and "You Might Think" reaching the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, while the album peaked at number three on the Billboard 200.

The Good Earth is the fifth studio album released by Manfred Mann's Earth Band in 1974. Its opening song is a cover of "Give Me the Good Earth", written by Gary Wright and released on his 1971 solo album Footprint, while tracks 2 and 3 were originally by Australian progressive rock band Spectrum.
Early owners of each copy of The Good Earth were entitled to rights over 1 square foot of the earth situated at Llanerchyrfa in the County of Brecon, in Wales. The inner sleeve included a coupon that had to be sent for registration. This was part of the promotion activities linked to the album that had ecological inspirations. There was no swindle and thousands of fans were registered. Registration could be done on or before 31 December 1975.

BAD COMPANY являются одной из первых супергрупп мира: Роджерс и Кёрк прославились во FREE, Ральфс - в MOTT THE HOOPLE, а Баррел - в KING CRIMSON. Поэтому не случайно, что музыканты с самого начала карьеры оказались под опекой Питера Гранта, менеджера LED ZEPPELIN. Уже дебютный альбом BAD COMPANY попал в британский Топ-3, и до конца 70-х группа пользовалась стабильной популярностью у слушателей. Стиль BAD COMPANY представлял собой упрощенный вариант LED ZEPPELIN, т.е. блюзовый хард-рок с ярко выраженной мелодичной поп-составляющей.

"When Empires Burn" получил не просто положительный, а самый что ни на есть восторженный прием. Некоторые муз. издания его наградили титулом "Альбом года", и недаром. Очень мощный, плотный и невероятно мелодичный релиз. Это даже не совсем хард-рок, местами песни качают так, что это самый настоящий метал. "Children of the Circle", "Gonna Live Forever", "When Empires Burn" заряжены самым настоящим высокооктановым топливом и заставляют сердце работать быстрее, а "Every Beat of My Heart" или "Meaning of Love" напомнят о том, что Кэтли был (и остается) голосом одной из лучших AOR групп.

Почти весь конец восьмидесятых у Гленна после постоянных злоупотреблений начались проблемы со здоровьем и он вынужден постоянно проходить курсами реабилитацию и лечение. Толко в начале девяностых Глен возвращается к музыке, тогда пришлось опять начинать с истоков, который он сам когда то заложил, а точнее группа Трапеза вновь приняли его в свои ряды. Девяностые стали для Гленна более плодотворнее чем вся его прошлая карьера, много сольных и совместных альбомов, а так же участие в различных проектах. Второй альбом Хьюза под названием "Блюз" увидел свет в 1992 году и стал весьма популярным, tto через два года выходит третий диск "Бернинг Джапан лайв"

Ordinary Man (stylised as ØRD†NARY MAN) is the twelfth studio album by English heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne. It was released on 21 February 2020 through Epic Records. It was produced by Andrew Watt and Louis Bell. This is the longest gap between two albums from Osbourne to date, spanning almost ten years since Scream. The first single of the album, "Under the Graveyard", was released on 8 November 2019. The second single, "Straight to Hell", was released on 22 November 2019. The third single and title track featuring singer Elton John was released on 10 January 2020. The fourth single "It's a Raid" featuring Post Malone was released on 20 February 2020, a day before the release of the album.

Second Flight: Live at the Z7 is the second live album by American progressive rock supergroup Flying Colors. The band recorded it on October 12, 2014 at the Z7 Konzertfabrik in Pratteln, Switzerland. Mike Portnoy chose the location because both Flying Colors and other bands of his had recorded multiple shows at the 013 in Tilburg. It was a challenging show for the band to perform because this was only the eighth show on the tour. The album title was coined by Portnoy.

Civilized Man is the ninth studio album by the British artist Joe Cocker, released in May 1984, his first on Capitol label. It includes a cover of the 1981 Squeeze hit "Tempted", as well as "There Goes My Baby", a 1959 hit single from The Drifters.
Songs for the album were recorded at two different sessions. Side "A", recorded at Village Recorders in Los Angeles, was produced by Gary Katz and features as a backing band the core of the then current group Toto (Steve Lukather, Jeff Porcaro, and David Paich), whereas side "B", recorded in Nashville, was produced by Stewart Levine, and features Music City stalwarts (David Briggs, Reggie Young and Larrie Londin). The album also features an appearance by Joe Cocker's former bandmate Jim Keltner (on "Long Drag Off a Cigarette").

From Out of Nowhere is the fourteenth studio album by British rock band Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), and the second credited to Jeff Lynne's ELO. The band's first studio album in four years, it was released on 1 November 2019 through Big Trilby and Columbia Records. The title track was released as the lead single on 26 September 2019. Lynne played most instruments on the album.

Whoosh! is the twenty-first studio album by English rock band Deep Purple, released on 7 August 2020.
The group collaborated with producer Bob Ezrin, who had also worked for their previous two albums. They enjoyed the recording and production. Its release was promoted by a series of press statements from singer Ian Gillan, such as "Another album?! Whoosh?!! Gordon Bennett!!!". He explained the album's title was chosen for its onomatopoeic qualities, and "when viewed through one end of a radio-telescope, describes the transient nature of humanity on Earth". He also said fans should simply listen to the album as an enjoyable experience.

Среди других к созданию "Line-Up" приложили руку такие личности как Джон Лорд, Мик Муди, Фрэнсис Росси и Кози Пауэлл. Альбом представлял собой добротный коммерческий хард-рок (хотя не без остатков ранних ритм-энд-блюзовых пристрастий музыканта), а сопутствующий сингл "Night Games" достиг шестой строчки в британских чартах. В начале 80-х Боннет сотрудничал с "Michael Schenker Group", участвовал в записи трибьюта "Police", а затем организовал проект "Alcatrazz".
