Limited Hybrid SACD edition of the rocker's 2000 collection.

DEFINITIVELY MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL ANALOG MASTER TAPES: SACD PLAYS WITH REFERENCE CLARITY, SUPERB DYNAMICS, AND LIVELY IMMEDIACY. Van Halen did more than announce to the world the earthshaking arrival of a revolutionary guitarist. Performed by an enterprising California quartet that took its name from two of its principal members, the 1978 debut ripped headlines away from punk, injected fresh energy into a then-moribund rock 'n' roll scene, reimagined how heavy music and throwback pop could coexist, and invited everyone to experience the top-down pleasures of a beachfront Saturday night every day of the week no matter where they lived. Painstakingly restored by Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab, and the first of a multi-album series in an exciting partnership between the famous reissue label and Van Halen, Van Halen delivers feel-good thrills and hormonally charged desires like never before.

The overflowing talent of a young man, the ultimate songbook is now available. All of Brian's works & followers & influences are included! The Brian Wilson Songbook has already been published by us (ODR6962-63), but we have reconstructed his fertile mind in a way that does not duplicate a single song. We have not only shed light on Brian's work and his followers, but have also taken a multifaceted look at the songs that may have influenced him. Beginning with Jan & Dane's M1, the first part of the album continues with Brian's work, followed by two good covers of Beach Boys songs, and then we come to his ally Gary Usher. The all-star cast is then introduced with M11 by Van Dyke Parks, M12 by Sagittarius, and M13 by Bruce & Terry. In the middle section, Brian's followers lined up, with the sad M17, followed by the hidden masterpiece M18, which also featured Ian Matthews, and a series of good tunes. M19.20, which talked about his affinity with the hilarious soul of the Philadelphia Soul, picked up Yellow Balloon and Sunrays from the many groups influenced by the Beach Boys, and the story came to a climactic conclusion. The closing song is the Beach Boys' classic M24, and in M25, the great Andy roars his beautiful voice on Lincoln Mayoga's piano under Nick DeCaro's gorgeous strings. (This disc is not Brian's own work.) Planning/Selection: Seiichi Yamamoto Supervision & Commentary: Shigo Marume (Fine Vacation Company) Detailed liner notes (over 13,000 characters) included.

A trio with a really wonderful vibe – captured here in a set of live recordings from the early 80s, a time when all three players were really resonating together with a very unique sense of energy! All three players are certainly ones who can come on strong when they want – Joachim Kuhn on piano, Daniel Humair on drums, and Jean-Francois Jenny-Clark on bass – yet here, they often really find time to open up the space between the notes – not in ways that are mellow, or in an ECM sort of style – but just to allow the bolder expressions to come across with even more bite – almost as if they open the sonic space first, then find ways to fill it on the long improvisations on the set! Titles include very unique takes on "India" and "Impressions" – plus originals "From Time To Time Free", "Guylene", and "Heavy Hanging". © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.

<<Nebula Reverberations>> is a cosmic journey through the depths of Stoner Rock and instrumental Heavy Psych.

Many renowned jazz musicians can be heard on the 10 CDs in this collection, but it is Gerry Mulligan’s work as arranger, composer and baritone saxophone player that is the focus. It took time for the rather ponderous, darkertoned baritone saxophone to achieve recognition as a solo instrument, but Mulligan played it with a lightness and elegance previously unknown. Born in New York, the youngest of four brothers, Gerald Joseph “Gerry” Mulligan lived even as a teenager in several different places in the USA and learnt to play in succession the piano, clarinet, alto, tenor and finally baritone saxophone. This 10 CD box set includes nineteen original jazz albums by the renowned jazz saxophonist Gerry Mulligan from the years 1954 to 1962. It features a mixture of classic albums and rare live recordings with Mulligan alongside world-class stars such as Thelonious Monk, Chet Baker, Lee Konitz, Zoot Sims and Paul Desmond.

This ten-CD box set is a treat for all jazz lovers: it contains a total of 17 original LPs by the legendary trumpeter, who was also a soulful singer. His fans regard Chet Baker as the co-creator of a restrained, typically cool, lyrical trumpet playing style inspired by Miles Davis. At the age of ten, his father had given him a slide trombone, which he swapped for a trumpet, following the example of Harry James. In a very short time, Baker learned to play simple swing melodies by himself and also showed a talent for improvisation. He became popular as a trumpet player in Gerry Mulligan's quartet, with whom he wrote the hit single "My Funny Valentine".

This compilation contains the complete sessions by the John Coltrane Quintet with Red Garland on piano and Donald Byrd on trumpet. And added another complete sessions by Coltrane-Garland quintet with Freddie Hubbard on trumpet instead of Donald Byrd.
