Mosaic Select presents a limited edition containing all of the solo piano recordings made by Andrew Hill at the Fantasy studios in Berkeley, CA during August and October 1978. Only a fraction of this material – the first two titles on the third disc – had ever seen the light of day prior to this collection's release in the spring of 2007. Having operated throughout the '60s as an innovative composer, pianist and bandleader, Hill spent the first half of the following decade exercising his creativity by composing and instructing at Colgate University in Hamilton, NY, performing internationally, and making records for Freedom, East Wind and Steeplechase.

Very good singer-songwriter album that’s quirky almost to a fault. It’s no mystery why this album was not a commercial success, the songs are just too weird! Part of this has to do with Dave MacIver’s totally bizarre lyrics, partly it’s Hine’s snarky, deadpan vocal delivery…

Samuel Roy Hagar also known as The Red Rocker, is an American singer-songwriter and entrepreneur. Hagar came to prominence in the 1970s with the hard rock band Montrose. He then launched a successful solo career, scoring an enduring hit in 1984 with "I Can't Drive 55". He enjoyed commercial success when he replaced David Lee Roth as the lead singer of Van Halen in 1985, but left in 1996. He returned to the band for a two-year reunion from 2003 to 2005. On March 12, 2007, Hagar was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Van Halen. His musical style primarily consists of hard rock and heavy metal.

John Taverner's accidentally totemic theme is subjected to more wondrous transformations by the likes of Robert Parsons, Henry Purcell and of course Christopher Tye—and inspires new works from Nico Muhly and Gavin Bryars.

First time available on CD, Cold Sun from Austin, Texas was recorded in 1970 in the legendary Sonobeat studios, where the Mariani and Johnny Winter first LPs were produced. The Cold Sun band are considered contemporaries of Velvet Underground and The Fugs, often listed as being in a similar vein but inspirations for this unique piece actually go back to the desperated, haunted Joe Meek. All songs lyrically express dark, mystic poetry with the true 60s psychedelic floating/distorted fuzz spirit presented in short compact mini-epics along with several mind blowing long tunes, such as "Ra-Ma", "Here In The Year" and "Fall".

The central irony in director Dan Pritzker’s film about Buddy Bolden, the first jazz musician to become known for his individual sound, is that no recordings of Bolden are known to exist. (He was active at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, and he died in 1931.) But if the soundtrack to Bolden begins as speculation, that’s not the same as groping in the dark: We know about aspects of the cornetist’s eclectic repertoire and how he transformed it, in an ensemble style which can be gleaned from the sole existing photograph of Bolden, standing amid his band with trombone, two clarinets (in B-flat and C), upright bass, and guitar.

The group is still called Blues Incorporated, but without Cyril Davies or Long John Baldry, who were present on the first record. Recording at Liverpool's Cavern Club was more a gimmick than anything else, and the music is not as well made or exciting as the group's first album. This record shows Alexis Korner's more big-band type blues work, favoring horns. At the Cavern was a good album, but not one that was going to make much noise amid the work of the Rolling Stones, the Animals, or the Yardbirds. Originally released in 1964, At the Cavern was reissued on CD in 2006 and includes bonus tracks.

Russia's leading brutal death / slam / grind band is back. 4 years after their last album KATALEPSY unleash a new monster on mankind with "Tera Mortuus Est".

US avantgarde black/death act IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT presents its 4th studio album, “Alphaville”, which continues the group’s saga of New York City inspired atmospheric yet technical metal that takes you from top floor. Featuring cover art by Zbigniew M. Bielak (Ghost, Deicide, Watain), who contributed one of his most stunning creations to date! Cover versions of “Experiment” (Voivod) & “Happy Home” (The Residents)

They All Came Down to Montreux was recorded in 2006 during Deep Purple's world tour promoting their album Rapture of the Deep. Fans of the Machine Head era lineup should check this out, as vocalist Ian Gillan, bassist Roger Glover and drummer Ian Paice are featured. Among the 12 tracks are "Lazy," "Highway Star," "Space Truckin" and "Smoke on the Water."

World's Greatest Ukulele Stylist is a 1962 album by ukulele player Don Baduria. While it is said he is not Hawaiian but a Filipino musician, his playing stood out for those who wanted to discover the sounds of a land that had just been turned into the 50th state in 1959. This explores his style of playing, where he does a few traditional songs, Pacific favorites and a few American standards although the album's opening song exploits the country's brand new space race exploration. This instrumental album was released by Bertram International and is a vinyl rip.

Everywhere And His Nasty Parlour Tricks is the 2001 CD by Pacific Northwest alternative rock band Modest Mouse. While some have called this an EP, its length make this a regular album or perhaps a mini-LP, a brief LP. Either way, Epic Records know the truth.

Tical 0: The Prequel is the third solo album by Wu-Tang Clan member Method Man, released in 2004. This is a Def Jam sureshot.
