This 1970 holiday release is the second Christmas album from The Miracles, following a successful, highly acclaimed 1963 outing. "The Season For Miracles" features traditional numbers, classic favourites and several originals, including two songs by Stevie Wonder. The Temptations join The Miracles on Mel Tormé's "The Christmas Song".

Norwegian saxophonist Trygve Seim sets the poetry of Jalaluddin Rumi (1207-1273), using the inspired contemporary English-language versions of Coleman Barks and Kabir Helminski as his source texts. Trygve responds both to the musicality of the translations and to Rumi’s gifts as a storyteller and with Rumi Songs seems to have invented a new kind of Lieder with a Nordic-Oriental orientation. The line-up is strikingly unorthodox, with each of the quartet members bringing their own musical personalities to the material. Classical mezzo-soprano Tora Augestad is well-known as the leader of her own ensemble Music For A While, and for her numerous music-theatre collaborations with Christoph Mathaler. She finds an intimate tone to convey Rumi’s thoughts, underlined by the elegant arrangements and the improvisational input of Seim, Haltli and Henryson.

The Jesus and Mary Chain fronted by the Reid brothers Jim and William, released their long awaited studio album "Damage and Joy" – their first album since "Munki", released back in the summer of 1998. Including lead track ‘Amputation’ and a re-energised new version of ‘All Things Must Pass’ which previously featured in the TV show ‘Heroes’.

Czech multi-instrumentalist-composer Karel Velebny was a major force in the emergence of Czechoslovakia onto the international jazz scene in the 1960’s. Appearances at the Berlin Jazz Days in 1964 and subsequent tours throughout Western Europe led to his group’s (SHQ) breakthrough. Here the group is augmented by four woodwinds. All the tunes are by group members.

Like Love You Live before it, Still Life showcases the Stones as pure entertainers, although the band adds enough rhythmic grit to keep the record from sinking into pure showbiz formula.

The Penguin Cafe Orchestra (PCO) was a collective of performing musicians created by classically trained British guitarist, composer and arranger Simon Jeffes. The Penguin's sound is not easily categorized, but has elements of exuberant folk music and a minimalist aesthetic occasionally reminiscent of composers such as Philip Glass. The Penguin Cafe Orchestra recorded and performed for 24 years until Jeffes died of a brain tumour in 1997.

Spectrum is the eleventh studio album by Japanese jazz pianist Hiromi Uehara. Jon Regen of Keyboard Magazine said, "Ten years after the release of her solo piano debut, Place to Be in 2009, Hiromi goes it alone once again on Spectrum. The album celebrates the maturity and depth that have enriched her music in recent years, during her collaborations with artists like Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke and Michel Camilo".

Despite singing together since they were old enough to talk, it took a lifetime for sisters Shelby Lynne and Allison Moorer to record together. United by blood, growing up in the backwoods of Alabama and sharing an unspeakable tragedy – they witnessed their father take their mother's life and then his own – their coming together on Not Dark Yet was perhaps inevitable, but it wasn't easy. The pair did a celebrated tour together in 2010 and tried to write a collective album afterwards. They ended up abandoning that project, but not the desire to collaborate.

On their fifth studio effort, "Sky Is Mine", English indie rockers The Duke Spirit valiantly search for humanity within a galaxy that oftentimes is quite full of the exact opposite. The band’s mission isn’t without its detours and obstacles, however, as the latest LP track proves. Titled “Houses”, it’s steeped in an aura of reverb and psychedelia, and conjures the feeling of uncertainty and need.

The album is a journey through music (Great American Song Book, Broadway & Jazz) and Edward Hopper’s art. The songs have been arranged by the most sought-after and best jazz arrangers including Baptiste Trotignon, Pierre Boussaguet, Patrice Caratini and Cyrille Lehn. Recorded with the Paris Mozart Orchestra and 2 Jazz Musicians, this is Natalie Dessay’s exciting first album release for Sony Classical. The first disc contains eleven songs from the Great American Song Book and the second: 8 compositions by Graciane Finzi (inspired by the Hopper paintings), texts by French poet Claude Esteban, recited by Natalie before Barber’s Adagio closes the album.

"Heart Break" is the seventh studio album by American country pop trio Lady Antebellum. The album serves as the "spiritual follow-up" to 2010's Need You Now and is their first release since 2014's "747", with its three-year gap being the longest between two albums by the group to date. The album was written and recorded primarily in Florida and California, due to the group feeling creatively stifled in Nashville.

The three sisters can't recall when or why they started playing, the music’s always just been there.

Albert's musical roots run deep, as seen in his long-standing affiliation with the Reformed Church of America, where he serves as a pianist and music director, infusing traditional jazz into gospel music.

The reputation of complex art, accessible only to selected and trained listeners, is well founded, but jazz is so diverse and multifaceted that any listener will find something attractive in it.

Listen to the new album by Stevie and the Miami Band, 10 tracks in the best blues and rock style, will fill you with a wonderful mood and will delight you with excellent sound.
