Released in November 1965 as a filler to meet Christmas demand, the Beach Boys convened in the studio with some friends, some acoustic instruments and a batch of cover songs to record this album intended to sound like there was a party going on. The covers include several songs by the Beatles, a Bob Dylan tune, some vintage rock 'n' roll and a version of Barbara Ann by The Regents, a surprise hit single for the Beach Boys that peaked at number two in the US and number three in the UK. This version contains both the mono and stereo mixes of the album.

"I Hear a Symphony" is the sixteenth album led by saxophonist Hank Crawford and his fifth released on the Kudu (CTI) label in 1973. AllMusic states, "This set is a cooker. Certainly the production is a bit dated, but the funky-butt moves in Crawford's soulful playing and the tough riffing of Gale more than transcend it".

We Fell In Turn is the solo debut from Brooklyn-based trombonist, composer, and quartet leader Kalia Vandever. Vandever, who plays with Harry Styles and Japanese Breakfast, “sculpts her trombone’s golden tones into dazzling compositions” (Pitchfork), writing music that tends to “dip you into a feeling or a pattern or a breathing speed, and keep you there” (The New York Times). In 2022, Vandever released Regrowth, an album that “features the ecstatic, brilliant melodies that have become Vandever’s signature sound” (Bandcamp). This spring, Vandever brings contemplative reflection to We Fell in Turn, a brave and understated work from an ascending voice in American jazz.

Screem Writers Guild is the eighteenth studio album by the Finnish rock band Lordi. It was released on 31 March 2023, and wis their first album under the label Atomic Fire Records. The album has been described as not a concept album, but contains a "cinematic horror movie" theme throughout.

Widely-praised award-winning vocalist Jazzmeia Horn makes her debut with "A Social Call", recorded with an all-star acoustic jazz lineup. Horn draws from a deep well of influences on her interpretations: she remakes standards such as West Of The Moon and I Remember You but is equally adept tackling the hard bop of Afro Blue and Moanin' or the gospel-leaning staples Wade In The Water and Lift Every Voice And Song. The album features Horn's readings of two songs associated with one of her biggest inspirations, Betty Carter: the title track and Tight. She also ventures into R&B on the much-covered Philly soul number People Make the World Go Round and I'm Going Down, a top 20 hit for Mary J. Blige, first done by Rose Royce in the 1970s.

Two of John Pizzarelli's greatest influences, Frank Sinatra and the bossa nova composer Antonio Carlos Jobim, joined forces in 1967 to present a softer, sultrier side of Sinatra on the heels of 'That's Life' and 'Strangers in the Night'. Half a century later, John Pizzarelli is celebrating that unique gathering with his Concord Jazz release "Sinatra & Jobim @ 50".
