Under many aspects, Bach was one of the greatest innovators in the history of music. Few things he created from scratch; but none of the elements he received from tradition he left untouched or adopted supinely. And one of the most impressive innovations that should be ascribed to his genius is the creation of a repertoire of unaccompanied works for the solo violin and cello, which demonstrates the possibility for these two instruments to sustain and support a whole musical discourse without the need of an accompaniment.

A protest record. Against discord, narrow-mindedness, and bad moods. "Luck You!", De-Phazz's 20th studio album, contains the quintessence of everything that defines Germany's most important export in terms of intelligent, loungey entertainment music: soul and jazz, dub and pop, hip hop and operetta, nonsense and profundity. As befits a protest record, De-Phazz has reinvented itself to some extent. The album could actually have been called "Bandmade". "This is the De-Phazz studio record with the greatest band influence," explains sample specialist and sound montage virtuoso Pit Baumgartner. Thus, the majority of the tracks on "Luck You!" were created in close collaboration with his long-time instrumental accomplices Ulf Kleiner (piano, Rhodes), Marcus Bartelt (saxophone, bass clarinet), and Oli Rubow (drums). The motto was: fewer collages like on the editing masterpiece “Pit Sounds”, released in 2024, but more handmade music.

Since their breakout 2012 self-titled debut album, The Lumineers have achieved some incredible milestones: twenty-four number one hits, billions of streams, packed global arena tours, multi-platinum releases, Grammy nominations, and, most important to core members Jeremiah Fraites and Wesley Schultz, numerous beloved, timeless songs. The band's fifth studio album Automatic out February 14, is being released in a music landscape that has become dominated by solo artists dependent on other writers. Schultz says being one of the few groups touring who write all their own material, is "a unique badge of honor." But that's not to say they won't collaborate with other artists; Schultz and Fraites have recently written and appeared on songs with pop icon P!nk, as well as rising singer-songwriters James Bay and Zach Bryan.

A Grammy-winning vocalist, Patti Austin is known for her ebullient jazz and R&B recordings. A performer since she was a child, Austin released several soul-jazz albums in the '70s before gaining widespread fame with her chart-topping 1982 hit duet with Roger Ingram "Baby, Come to Me," off the Quincy Jones-produced Every Home Should Have One. Along with her pop success, she has released a string of Top 20 Billboard 200 Jazz Albums, including 1988's The Real Me, 1990's Love Is Gonna Getcha, and 1994's The Secret Place

The Bluebells’ Sisters is a perfect snapshot of early ’80s “Sound of Young Scotland”: Glasgow indie pop with bittersweet spirit, sharp hooks, and heartfelt harmonies. Signing to the then-nascent London Records, and working with a procession of esteemed producers (including Elvis Costello who became a mentor and teacher to the band), The Bluebells enjoyed three UK hits in the 1980s (‘Cath’, ‘Young at Heart’ and ‘I’m Falling’) before touring widely throughout Europe and North America, developing their live sound and signing to Seymour Stein’s Sire Records in the U.S.

Originally recorded for the small Music Masters label in the early '90s, this set of Bach's keyboard concertos was among a series of choice Music Masters items reissued by Nimbus late in the first decade of the 21st century. The Russians have never been known for Bach, but this is a solid traversal that can be recommended to anyone wanting to hear these concertos on a piano accompanied by modern instruments. Despite these forces, there is a good deal of influence from the British historical-instrument movement apparent here; the crisp string playing avoids any hint of Romantic sheen, and Feltsman is very subtle in his introduction of purely pianistic elements. The long notes in the slow movements tend to be just a bit more extended than would be possible on a harpsichord, and Feltsman thus creates a smooth, pearly texture that's quite lyrical. In several of the finales he pushes the tempo to high speeds, creating an entirely different effect on a piano that the music would have on a harpsichord.

Paul Brown releases So Much To Say with special guests Rick Braun, Darren Rahn and Jeff Ryan. With So Much To Say, Paul Brown reaches the peak of his prodigious creativity. The album kicks off with the joyful title tune "So Much To Say," followed by a brilliant reinvention of the classic, "Summertime." Other surefire smooth-jazz hits include the in-the-pocket "Vice Versa," the uber-funky "The Get Down," the romantic "Take Me As I Am," and much more. Two time Grammy winner Paul Brown, both as an artist and producer, is responsible for more that 100 #1 jazz radio hits. Paul has produced and shared the stage with a who's-who of jazz greats such as George Benson, Patti Austin, Boney James, Norman Brown and Peter White just to name a few. "Paul Brown… a top-to-bottom smooth jazz stunner brimming with bright melodies and enough hits to fill a Christmas stocking." -All About Jazz

Fourteen years after his last solo outing, STILLS ALONE, Stephen Stills unveiled 2005's MAN ALIVE!, a remarkably vital and dynamic album that features the veteran performer penning almost every song and playing many of the record's instruments. Although David Crosby is absent, Stills's other CSNY mates, Graham Nash and Neil Young, turn up separately. While Nash subtly sticks to backing-vocal duty, Young contributes his typically incendiary electric-guitar lines to the hard-rocking "'Round the Bend" and offers up vocal harmonies and acoustic-guitar work on the spare, soulful "Different Man." A more unlikely cameo comes in the form of pianist Herbie Hancock's prominent presence on the 11-minute epic "Spanish Suite," which also features Latin percussion great Willie Bobo. Of course, Stills is the main attraction on MAN ALIVE!, with his husky voice carrying every song, including the socially conscious CSN-like track "Feed the People" and the blues-tinged "Piece of Me".

Little Earthquakes is the debut solo album of singer-songwriter Tori Amos, featuring the singles "Silent All These Years", "China", "Winter" and "Crucify". In 1998, Q magazine readers voted Little Earthquakes the 66th greatest album of all time, and in 2002 the same magazine named it the fourth Greatest Album of All-Time by a Female Artist. In a retrospective review of the album, AllMusic critic Steve Huey stated that with Little Earthquakes, Amos "carved the template for the female singer/songwriter movement of the '90s" and that while "her subsequent albums were often very strong, Amos would never bare her soul quite so directly (or comprehensibly) as she did here, nor with such consistently focused results." Little Earthquakes was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
