The four band members drummer Michael Calabrese, bassist Bridget Kearney, singer Rachael Price, and guitarist/trumpeter Michael & quot;McDuck & quot; Olson worked with Nashville-based producer Dave Cobb (Sturgill Simpson, Chris Stapleton, Secret Sisters) on the record. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Side Pony takes its name from a song on the record that refers to a whimsical hairstyle, but it also serves as a metaphor for Lake Street Dive's philosophy and personality as a band. As Kearney puts it, & lt;b & gt; & quot;When we were settling on the album title, that one just stuck out to us as embodying the band's spirit. We've always been this somewhat uncategorizable, weird, outlying, genre-less band. That's the statement we wanted to make with this record: be yourself. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Olson echoes the sentiment: & lt;b & gt; & quot;It has also come to mean anything you're doing for the sheer joy of it. We have always 'rocked our side pony.' Now we have a convenient phrase for it. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Cobb's working method was to keep the recording fast and loose, as live-in-the-studio as possible, and to embrace the unorthodox. This provided Lake Street Dive with a welcome challenge: an opportunity to experiment with sound and arrangements and to collaborate on songwriting in a way the band had never attempted before. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Calabrese says of the recording process, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Dave's process was mercurial, changing direction quickly, going from 'we don't have anything' to 'we've got it!' & quot; & lt;/b & gt; He continues, & lt;b & gt; & quot;We weren't always so sure. But then we'd listen to a comp and we'd agree that he'd heard something we hadn't. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Price adds, & lt;b & gt; & quot;It was great to see, through this particular recording process, how beautifully our individual strengths complement each other. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The members of Lake Street Dive met in 2004 as students at Boston's New England Conservatory of Music. Though they were all studying jazz, their work together was informed by their love of classic pop, particularly from the '60s, including the Beatles, the Supremes, Dusty Springfield, and the Beach Boys. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; For several years, the group was a part-time proposition, but in 2012, Lake Street Dive became a full-time combo after a YouTube video of the quartet acoustically performing the Jackson Five's & quot;I Want You Back & quot; on a suburban Boston street corner went viral. Producer T Bone Burnett soon invited them to perform at a concert he curated at New York City's Town Hall. The band's performance of & quot;You Go Down Smooth & quot; was a crowd and critical favorite, with Rolling Stone calling the band & lt;b & gt; & quot;unexpected showstoppers. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Lake Street Dive's 2014 album Bad Self Portraits was highly praised by the press. USA Today called the record & lt;b & gt; & quot;a sparkling collection of jazz/Motown/girl group/British Invasioninspired original tunes. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Performances on the Colbert Report, Late Show with David Letterman, and Conan followed, and their live shows became a hot ticket, culminating in two sold-out shows at New York's Terminal 5. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;iframe width= & quot;560 & quot; height= & quot;315 & quot; src= & quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/hXAcCHyakDE & quot; frameborder= & quot;0 & quot; allowfullscreen & gt; & lt;/iframe & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; MP3 Download & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Rachael Price, vocals & lt;br & gt; Bridget Kearney, bass & lt;br & gt; Michael & quot;McDuck & quot; Olson, guitar, trumpet & lt;br & gt; Michael Calabrese, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

The Gipsy Kings The Best of The Gipsy Kings 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;b & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt;Flamenco Album Released On Double LP! & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The initial success of this 18-track collection, chronicling the first seven years of the groups Nonesuch career, illustrated just how popular the Gipsy Kings had become: It held the top spot on the World Music charts for a full year. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This 2016 released vinyl edition comes on two Record Industry-pressed 140gm LPs. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;France's Gipsy Kings have been purveying their distinctive brand of gypsy/flamenco music since the 1970s, when the Reyes brothers (sons of legendary flamenco singer José Reyes) banded together with their talented cousins, the Baliardos, to play the music that was a fundamental part of their lives. After years of amazing performances, the group finally broke worldwide in the late '80s, bringing the sound of their homeland to audiences all over Europe and America. This compilation brings together some of the most spirited selections from their impressive discography. The trademarks of the Gipsy Kings' music are their crisp, undulating rhythms; the gritty, emotive vocals of Nicolas and Andre Reyes, and the phenomenal guitar work of Tonino Baliardo (nephew of flamenco great Manitas de Plata). Baliardo's solos are sharply executed, organically conceived moments of beauty that glow with a lyrical grace. Besides the more traditional flamenco style in which the Gipsy Kings specialize -- exemplified by & quot;Baila Me & quot; and the monster hit 'Bamboleo' -- the band extends its reach into more unexpected territory, like the reggaefied 'Escucha Me' and Domenico Mondugno's 1958 pop hit 'Volare.' This is a rich and varied document of an original and important voice in modern music. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Rovi Staff, allmusic.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 140g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Record Industry & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Joshua Redman & Brad Mehldau Nearness 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;b & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt;Jazz Duets Recorded Live In Europe Released On 140g Vinyl Double LP! & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound! & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Nonesuch Records compiles a selection of duets recorded live during Joshua Redman and Brad Mehldau's European tour. The album, Nearness, is the first duo album from friends and collaborators saxophonist Joshua Redman and pianist Brad Mehldau. The album is released on 140g Double LP pressed at Record Industry in a single pocket jacket with insert and limited time download card. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Brad Mehldau first came to prominence as a member Joshua Redman's quartet in the 1990s before becoming a bandleader himself. The pair first reunited in 2010 when Redman was featured on Mehldau's album Highway Rider. In 2013, Mehldau was featured as a performer and producer on Redman's Walking Shadows. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;It's like one of those friendships where you don't see someone for a long stretch and then you fall right back where you left off, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Mehldau told the Ottawa Citizen when he and Redman performed at the city's jazz festival in 2011. According to the Citizen's Peter Hum, these two friends are & lt;b & gt; & quot;among the most potent and influential jazz instrumentalists of their generation, and what Mehldau calls 'picking up' is in fact world-class improvising before rapt audiences. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Perfect: the worldless coordination of efforts, the endless improvisational innovation on just two instruments, the sheer excitement...It's nirvana. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - The Boston Globe & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The album opens with an exhilarating take on Charlie Parker's bebop anthem 'Orinthology'; Redman's ability to nonchalantly cover Bird's chops-busting head on tenor sax while pianist Mehldau's contrapuntal contributions essentially create a contrafact for a tune that itself was a contrafact...is astonishing, and the two take great liberties from there, extrapolating playfully on the theme. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Bill Milkowski, The Absolute Sound & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 140g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Record Industry & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound & lt;br & gt; Single pocket jacket & lt;br & gt; Insert & lt;br & gt; Limited time download card & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Joshua Redman, saxophone & lt;br & gt; Brad Mehldau, piano & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Due to a musical relationship with & lt;b & gt;Gram Parsons & lt;/b & gt; that altered her musical direction, the sophomore album would be the one that launched her career. The album contains the country hit song & quot;If I Could Only Win Your Love & quot;. & lt;b & gt;Linda Ronstadt & lt;/b & gt; sings harmony on the song & quot;Queen Of the Silver Dollar & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; A 13-time Grammy winner and Billboard Century Award recipient, Emmylou Harris' contribution as a singer and songwriter spans 40 years. She has recorded more than 25 albums and has lent her talents to countless fellow artists' recordings. In recognition of her remarkable career, Harris was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2008. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Pieces Of The Sky is bravely eclectic, impeccably performed, and achingly beautiful. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - All Music Guide & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side One: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Mentored by ex-Burrito Brother Gram Parsons, she rose to stardom as his transcendent vocal partner on the & quot;Cosmic American Music & quot; gracing his landmark solo albums GP ('72) and Grievous Angel ('73). Harris' own ever-adventurous solo career launched shortly after Parsons' untimely death with 1975's PIECES OF THE SKY. Produced by Brian Ahern (who would helm ten more albums for Harris and become her second husband), the LP showcased her crystalline, achingly beautiful vocals, and kicked off a string of '70s album masterpieces featuring her & quot;Hot Band & quot; of stellar sidemen that are her defining classics. A nine-time Grammy-winner, Harris is equal parts keeper of Parsons' extraordinary flame, sweetheart of the rodeo, alt-country/rock madonna, and 100% all-time master interpreter of American roots music. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side One: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Steve Reich Pulse/Quartet LP (Vinyl)

In Pulse I felt the need to stay put harmonically and spin out smoother wind and string melodic lines in canon over a constant pulse in the electric bass and or piano. From time to time this constant pulse is accented differently through changing hand alternation patterns on the piano. All in all, a calmer more contemplative piece. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; He continues, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Quartet, when mentioned in the context of concert music, is generally assumed to mean string quartet. In my case, the quartet that has played a central role in many of my pieces (besides the string quartet) is that of two pianos and two percussion. It appears like that or in expanded form with more pianos or more percussion in The Desert Music; Sextet; Three Movements; The Four Sections; The Cave; Dance Patterns; Three Tales; You Are (Variations); Variations for Vibes, Pianos and Strings; Daniel Variations; Double Sextet; and Radio Rewrite. In Quartet, there is just this group alone: two vibes and two pianos. & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The piece is one of the more complex I have composed. It frequently changes key and often breaks off continuity to pause or take up new material. Though the parts are not unduly difficult, it calls for a high level of ensemble virtuosity. The form is one familiar throughout history: fast, slow, fast, played without pause. The slow movement introduces harmonies not usually found in my music. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In April 2009 Steve Reich was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in Music for his composition Double Sextet. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Steve Reich has been hailed as & lt;b & gt; & quot;America's greatest living composer & quot; & lt;/b & gt;(The Village Voice) & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;the most original musical thinker of our time & quot; & lt;/b & gt; (The New Yorker) & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;among the great composers of the century & quot; & lt;/b & gt; (New York Times). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; From his early taped speech pieces It's Gonna Rain (1965) and Come Out (1966) to his and video artist Beryl Korot's digital video opera Three Tales (2002), Reich's path has embraced not only aspects of Western Classical music, but the structures, harmonies, and rhythms of non-Western and American vernacular music, particularly jazz. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;There's just a handful of living composers who can legitimately claim to have altered the direction of musical history, and Steve Reich is one of them, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; states The Guardian (London). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The lyricism, gorgeous instrumental textures and affecting harmonies are genially and spiritually alluring. The genius is that you never really know where the score is going, just why it is going there. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Los Angeles Times & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; Limited time MP3 download & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Pulse: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; International Contemporary Ensemble: & lt;br & gt; Josh Modney, violin & lt;br & gt; Gabby Diaz, violin & lt;br & gt; Michi Wiancko, violin & lt;br & gt; Pauline Kim, violin & lt;br & gt; Kyle Armbrust, viola & lt;br & gt; Wendy Richman, viola & lt;br & gt; Claire Chase, flute & lt;br & gt; Alice Teyssier, flute & lt;br & gt; Joshua Rubin, clarinet & lt;br & gt; Campbell MacDonald, clarinet & lt;br & gt; Jacob Greenberg, piano & lt;br & gt; Greg Chudzik, bass & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Quartet: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Colin Currie Group: & lt;br & gt; Colin Currie, vibraphone & lt;br & gt; Sam Walton, vibraphone & lt;br & gt; Philip Moore, piano & lt;br & gt; Simon Crawford-Phillips, piano & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

The family relocated to Los Angeles during his teenage years; it was there that he learned to speak English, skateboard, and play music. Banhart first began to perform in public while attending the San Francisco Art Institute. He has since lived in New York City, Paris, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, where he currently resides. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Banhart first attracted international notice with his 2002 debut album, Oh Me Oh My
The Way the Day Goes By the Sun Is Setting Dogs Are Dreaming Lovesongs of the Christmas Spirita collection of recordings he had made for himself. Pitchfork said in its review: Banharts promising debut is the sign of someone destined for great, strange things.

Randy Newman Dark Matter LP (Vinyl)

Throughout the 1970s he released several other acclaimed albums. In addition to his solo recordings and regular international touring, Newman began composing and scoring for films in the 1980s. The list of movies he has worked on since then includes The Natural, Awakenings, Ragtime, all three Toy Story pictures, Seabiscuit, James and the Giant Peach, A Bug's Life, and most recently, Disney/Pixar's Monsters University, the prequel to Monsters Inc. (which he also scored). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Such a long wait for nine new songs may be frustrating for some, but Dark Matter arrives at the right time and delivers the commentary and insight we crave from Newman. He makes you forget about the time that has passed and puts the focus on where it belongs: the present. The man is one of the eras great songwriters, composers, and storytellers, and Dark Matter perfectly fits in his legacy. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Darren DeVivo, WFUV & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Newman opens his first album of new material in eight years with three songs that play the end of Western civilization for laughs starting with a Marx Brothers version of the Scopes Trial and culminating with a Vladimir Putin variety show and then hits one that plays the end of life for tears: 'Lost Without You,' in which a husband listens in the shadows as his dying wife tells her kids to take care of him after she's gone. It's a stunning miniature, with swells of American prairie strings and horns giving way to Newman alone at the piano delivering a simple message: The darkness is coming to us all, one way or the other. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Rolling Stone, 50 Best Albums of 2017 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; Limited time MP3 download & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Robert Plant Carry Fire 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;TAS Super LP List! Special Merit: Informal & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Eleventh Studio Album On Double LP! & lt;br & gt; Featuring A Duet With Chrissie Hynde! & lt;br & gt; One of Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums of 2017! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Robert Plant's eleventh studio album, Carry Fire, produced by Plant in the west of England and Wales, melds unusual rhythms with naturalism. As with his 2014 album, lullaby and
The Ceaseless Roar, the album features his band The Sensational Space Shifters. They are also joined here by special guests, including Chrissie Hynde on the duet & quot;Bluebirds Over The Mountain & quot; (written by rockabilly legend Ersel Hickey and later recorded by both Richie Valens and The Beach Boys); Albanian cellist Redi Hasa; and the celebrated Seth Lakeman on viola and fiddle. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In his nearly 50-year career, former Led Zeppelin vocalist and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member Robert Plant has gone to far distant lands as intrepid musical explorer, collaborating with musicians like Alison Krauss, Buddy Miller, and Patty Griffin. To write and produce lullaby and... The Ceaseless Roar, though, he returned to his native England, enriched by all he has seen, heard, and investigated. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; For the last few years, Plant has lived and recorded in America, working with musicians in Nashville, residing for a spell in Austin, and making time to drive along the byways of Mississippi, fueled by the sound of the delta blues that has inspired him since he was a teenager (a car journey recollected in the new & quot;Turn It Up & quot;). He had previously traversed North and West Africa, following the trail of the blues back to the desert, where he famously joined nomadic Tuareg musicians and others at the renowned Festival of the Desert in Essakene, Mali. But now his creative wanderings have led him back to his native England and a rediscovery -- and a reappraisal -- of himself as an artist and songwriter. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; More than any artist of his generation, Plant, an indisputable rock legend, continues to surprise and challenge his audience -- and himself -- with music that is smart, exciting, and completely of the moment. His decades of experience, his incredible legacy as the front man of Led Zeppelin and as a solo artist, only serve to keep pushing him forward. He's steeped in history but his ears are attuned to the entire world around him, listening for the future. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;With a title that evokes primal discovery and heroic burden, Carry Fire finds Plant nuancing the mystic stomp of yore for darkening times. 'New World...' is a wearily surging 'Immigrant Song' for the age of xenophobic travel bans; 'Bones of Saints' surges with 'Going to California' promise, then becomes an anthem against mass shootings. The overall feel is at once ancient and new, cutting Led Zeppelin III's Maypole majesty with the Velvet Underground's careful guitar violence (see the 'All Tomorrow's Parties'-tinged 'Dance With You Tonight'), and the patient power of Plant's golden-god-in-winter singing can be astonishing. More impressive is the way that, at 69, he remains youthfully committed to rock & amp; roll rejuvenation. One fine example of that spirit: his duet with Chrissie Hynde on 'Bluebirds Over the Mountain,' remaking a Fifties gem recorded by Richie Valens and, later, the Beach Boys, into a slow-roll barn-dance Bacchanal, complete with a levee-breaking yowl. It proves that Plant's athletic power, like his musical idealism, burns undiminished. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Rolling Stone, 50 Best Albums of 2017 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Gatefold jacket & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

The Austin Chronicle wrote & lt;b & gt; & quot;the characters are memorable, the satire sharp, the music luxurious, and the arrangements maybe the most gorgeous in all pop music. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Sumptuous melodies, devastating pathos and thorny, irony-laden character songs....

Jonny Greenwood Phantom Thread Soundtrack 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Oscar Nominee For Best Score On Double LP! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood has been nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Score to Paul Thomas Anderson's movie Phantom Thread. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The album features the films original music composed by Jonny Greenwood who recorded his score with the London Contemporary Orchestra and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;From Variety.com: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; The films piano-and-strings dominated score, which received a Golden Globes nomination for best original score, plays a key role in defining the lead characters of Reynolds Woodcock (Daniel Day-Lewis), the 1950s London couture designer, and Alma (Vicky Krieps), his model and lover. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;We talked a lot about 50s music, what was popularly heard then as well as what was being written and recorded, & quot; & lt;/b & gt;Greenwood tells Variety. & lt;b & gt; & quot;Nelson Riddle and Glenn Goulds Bach recordings were the main references. I was interested in the kind of jazz records that toyed with incorporating big string sections, Ben Webster made some good ones, and focus on what the strings were doing rather than the jazz musicians themselves. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Greenwood reasoned that if Reynolds listened to music, it would have been Gould. & lt;b & gt; & quot;Lots of slightly obsessive, minimal baroque music, & quot; & lt;/b & gt;says Greenwood. & lt;b & gt; & quot;And we could use the piano as the common ground between the romantic music and the formal, slightly more buttoned-up themes that suited Reynolds. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The romantic movements & lt;b & gt; & quot;couldnt cross into pastiche, or be in any way ironic, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; he says. & lt;b & gt; & quot;It took a long time to figure out how to do that. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; At one point, Greenwood recorded with an ensemble of 60 strings, his largest ever. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Some of the cues, however, are played by only a quartet. & lt;b & gt; & quot;The smaller groups, and solo players, work like close-ups [and] not necessarily to accompany [a] visual, but rather, to focus your attention on and make you feel directly engaged with the characters. The bigger orchestral things often worked best for drawing you back to see the bigger situation. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Anderson first heard Greenwoods themes-in-progress at the musicians London studio. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;These were turned into a whole body of work for him to draw from, and to request longer, shorter, faster versions and variations, & quot; & lt;/b & gt;says Greenwood, adding that, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Some cues were written specifically to scenes. Others were just sketches of the characters, or of the story. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; All told, some 90 minutes of music ended up in the final cut. Says Greenwood: & lt;b & gt; & quot;When I told [this to] Robert Ziegler, who conducted the score, he said, Thats not a soundtrack, thats a musical! But I know Im pretty lucky to work on films like this, where theres so much scope for developing a score over such a long time. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Building out from the movie's main theme a delicate whirlwind of violins that comes in four different variations, like a model being newly outfitted for each new fashion season Greenwood's score is a masterpiece of troubled beauty, a glass of sherry spiked with poison. At first, in fraught pieces like 'Boletus Felleus' and 'Sandalwood I,' the beauty is troubling. However, by the time we get to the climactic lilt of 'For the Hungry Boy,' the troubling has become beautiful. Greenwood perfectly intuits the tidal dynamics of Anderson's perverse romance, and translates them into something that everyone can feel for themselves. Thanks to Greenwood, 'Phantom Thread' would still be one of the year's best films if you watched it with your eyes closed. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - David Ehrlich, IndieWire, The 10 Best Movie Scores of 2017, Rated 1/10! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;As lavish and lush as the film's old-world beauty...The scope of the score far exceeds Greenwood's previous work for film. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Pitchfork & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Gatefold jacket & lt;br & gt; 24-page special booklet & lt;br & gt; Limited time MP3 download & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side 1: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Backstage, Burnett was immediately moved to ask if he could produce a record with her. & lt;b & gt;It was clear the first time I heard her at rehearsal that Rhiannon is next in a long line of singers that include Marian Anderson, Odetta, Mahalia Jackson, Rosetta Tharpe, & lt;/b & gt; Burnett says. & lt;b & gt;We need that person in our culture. & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; For her first solo disc, Giddens chose a broad range of songs from genres as diverse as gospel, jazz, blues, and country. In addition to the traditional Black Is the Color, tracks include & lt;b & gt;Hank Cochran & lt;/b & gt;s Shes Got You, made famous by & lt;b & gt;Patsy Cline; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;b & gt;Dolly Parton & lt;/b & gt;s Don't Let It Trouble Your Mind; O Love Is Teasin, popularized by the Kentucky-reared mother of folk & lt;b & gt;Jean Ritchie & lt;/b & gt;; and & lt;b & gt;Elizabeth Cotton & lt;/b & gt;s Shake Sugaree. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;I had already started putting together a list of songs that didnt really fit into the Chocolate Drops world, & lt;/b & gt; Giddens explains. & lt;b & gt;At the top was Tomorrow Is My Turn [immortalized by Nina Simone]. Seeing Nina do it on YouTube was revelatory. I knew shed gone through a lot of hard times, as so many people did in that time period. Watching her sing this song, with the words tomorrow is my turn, I began to think about the struggle of her and women like her. & lt;/b & gt;The significance of this song led Giddens to make it the title of the album as well. & lt;b & gt;Other songs started getting on my list and they were all by women or interpreted by women, & lt;/b & gt; she says. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Tomorrow Is My Turn was recorded in Los Angeles and Nashville, with a multi-generational group of players whom Burnett assembled. Among them are fiddle player & lt;b & gt;Gabe Witcher & lt;/b & gt; and double bassist & lt;b & gt;Paul Kowert & lt;/b & gt; of label-mates & lt;b & gt;Punch Brothers & lt;/b & gt;; percussionist & lt;b & gt;Jack Ashford & lt;/b & gt; of Motowns renowned & lt;b & gt;Funk Brothers & lt;/b & gt;; drummer & lt;b & gt;Jay Bellerose & lt;/b & gt;; guitarist & lt;b & gt;Colin Linden & lt;/b & gt;; legendary backup singer & lt;b & gt;Tata Vega & lt;/b & gt;; veteran Nashville session bassist & lt;b & gt;Dennis Crouch & lt;/b & gt;; and Giddens Drops touring band-mates, multi-instrumentalist & lt;b & gt;Hubby Jenkins & lt;/b & gt; and beat-boxer & lt;b & gt;Adam Matta & lt;/b & gt;. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Tomorrow Is My Turn follows Giddens work with Elvis Costello, Taylor Goldsmith, Jim James, and Marcus Mumford on & lt;b & gt;Lost On The River: The New Basement Tapes & lt;/b & gt;, an album also produced by Burnett that was released in November 2014. Her contribution was hailed by Rolling Stone magazine as the & lt;b & gt;showstopper...evoking antebellum blues with a magnificent voice that interrogates the myths stirred up at Big Pink. & lt;/b & gt; The New York Times agreed, saying & lt;b & gt;On lead vocals shes the albums revelation, singing melodies that hark back to Celtic modes with a decisive presence and a haunting grace. & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; Includes CD of the complete album & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side One: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Natalie Merchant Paradise Is There: The New Tigerlily Recordings 180g 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Merchant Reimagines Music From Her Debut Solo Album On 180g Double LP & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Natalie Merchant's career began when, as a college student, she joined the seminal alternative rock band 10,000 Maniacs. Serving as lead vocalist, lyricist, and sometime pianist, Merchant released five critically acclaimed studio albums with the band, including the platinum-selling In My Tribe (1987), Blind Man's Zoo (1989), Our Time in Eden (1992), and MTV Unplugged (1993). Merchant left the group in 1993, after 12 years, to record her first solo album. Tigerlily (1995) was certified five-times platinum, and was followed by the platinum Ophelia (1998), Natalie Merchant Live (1999), and Motherland (2001). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Nonesuch Records releases Natalie Merchant's Paradise Is There: The New Tigerlily Recordings on Vinyl LP. This collection of all-new recordings revisits Merchant's multi-platinum solo debut, Tigerlily, originally released in 1995 following her departure from 10,000 Maniacs. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Tigerlily was described by the New York Times in 1995 as & quot;an anomaly in a music scene in which reckless female performers reign supreme. & quot; The album sold more than five million copies worldwide and featured the popular hit singles & quot;Carnival, & quot; & quot;Wonder, & quot; and & quot;Jealousy. & quot; Paradise Is There presents the songs as they have evolved over the past two decades of live performance. Joining Merchant on the album, which she produced herself, are her long-time band members Gabriel Gordon (guitar), Jesse Murphy (bass), Uri Sharlin (piano & amp; accordion), and Allison Miller (drums), as well as a string quartetScot Moore (violin), Shawn Moore (violin), Marandi Hostetter (viola), and Stanley Moore (cello) plus Sharel Cassity (saxophone) and guest vocals by Simi Stone, Gail Ann Dorsey, and Elizabeth Mitchell. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Tigerlily is the most significant album I've made because it defined me as an independent songwriter after 12 years in 10,000 Maniacs, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Merchant explains, & lt;b & gt; & quot;It also created a bond between me and an audience that has supported and sustained me for 20 years. I decided to make the Paradise Is There album and film for them, to honor the journey that we, and these songs, have all taken. Songs have new life breathed into them every time they are sung. Time has changed them as much as it has changed me. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; She continues, & lt;b & gt; & quot;I wanted to record these songs again because it seemed unfair to confine them to the way that they were performed in the studio in 1995. They are so versatile, whether I strip them bare or enhance them with strings, and they lend themselves so well to re-arrangement. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;There are several songs from Tigerlily 'Carnival', 'Wonder', 'Beloved Wife', 'River', and 'Cowboy Romance' that remain at the core of my live shows. They still have relevance to me and, by the response they receive, I can tell that they still resonate with my audience, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Merchant says. & lt;b & gt; & quot;I've spent a full year preparing this album ... and the process gave me a chance to take the measure of everything that's happened because of Tigerlily. The distance this music traveled once it left my hands is humbling, and I am moved by how many lives it has touched along the way. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The brainy and bohemian lyrics and catchy beats are still there, but the songs are more lush and expansive, with more nuanced arrangements just different enough to make you take notice. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Karen Bells, The Absolute Sound, 4/5 Music, 3.5/5 Sonics. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP Includes MP3 Download & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt;1.

The Punch Brothers The Phosphorescent Blues 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Double Vinyl LP! 4 Bonus Tracks! & lt;br & gt;2016 Grammy Nominee! & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; After working with Burnett numerous timesmost recently on the soundtrack for the Joel and Ethan Coen film Inside Llewyn Davis and the related Town Hall/Showtime concert Another Day, Another TimePunch Brothers decided to join forces with the multiple Grammy Awardwinning producer for their new record. Last summer, the band and Burnett spent a month at Hollywoods Ocean Way Recording laying down the songs that guitarist Chris Eldridge, bassist Paul Kowert, banjo player Noam Pikelny, mandolinist and lead singer Chris Thile, and fiddler Gabe Witcher had written during several writing retreats last winter and spring. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Thile explains one of the ways the music on The Phosphorescent Blues reflects the bands view of modern life: We often go to bars after shows or writing sessions, to be around other people for a little while. And Id see people just like me on their phones, telling people they wish they were there, texting people who really are there. Then a song would come on that somebody likes and then they see that someone else does too and maybe they both sing it together and that moment is spiritual, some shared experience, and they are interacting in the flesh, with their fellow man. And thats communion. Many of the songs on this record dive into that: how do we cultivate beautiful, three-dimensional experiences with our fellow man in this day and age? & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Shortly before the sessions began, Thile and Witcher met with Burnett and discovered the producer had the very same things on his mind. In fact, hed just given a commencement address at the University of Southern California on the subject of technology and human interaction. Witcher remembers, Thile and I looked at each and said, This is unbelievable. Its exactly what we are writing about. So this was a perfect, serendipitous union. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; 4 Bonus Tracks & lt;br & gt; Download Card & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP 1 & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Allen Toussaint American Tunes 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;TAS Super LP List! Special Merit: Informal & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Final Album On Double LP! & lt;br & gt; Mastered By Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering Studios! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The final album from legendary New Orleans musician Allen Toussaint, who passed away in November of 2015 - & lt;b & gt;A Fitting Capstone To A Brilliant Career! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Nonesuch releases American Tunes, a studio album by the legendary New Orleans musician Allen Toussaint. Toussaint had just completed the album when he passed away in November 2015 during a European tour. Recording took place at two sets of sessions with producer Joe Henry: solo piano at Toussaint's New Orleans home studio in 2013, and with the rhythm section of Jay Bellerose and David Piltchjoined by guests Bill Frisell, Charles Lloyd, Greg Leisz, Rhiannon Giddens, and Van Dyke Parksin Los Angeles in October 2015. The album comprises solo performances of Professor Longhair tunes and band arrangements of songs by Toussaint, Duke Ellington, Fats Waller, Paul Simon, and others. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Allen Toussaint's work as composer, producer, arranger, and performer, especially in the 1960s and '70s, helped shape the sound of R & amp;B, soul, and funk as we know it today. He collaborated memorably with artists ranging from Lee Dorsey and Ernie K. Doe to the Pointer Sisters and Labelle, from the Meters and Dr. John to the Band and Paul McCartney. The New York Times recently said, & quot;In Mr. Toussaint's long career as songwriter, arranger and producer he has honed a piano style that's supportive and allusive; a little trill or tremolo sums up all the splashy joys of New Orleans patriarchs like Professor Longhair and James Booker, and a syncopated chord under right-hand octaves summons gospel. Mr. Toussaint has the two-fisted, rippling vocabulary of the city's piano legacy, but he uses it in dapper ways. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Toussaint's children, Alison Toussaint-LeBeaux and Clarence Reginald Toussaint, who have long served as their father's managers, said of the American Tunes album, & quot;Our father approached this project with great care and understanding of the songs selected and paid true homage to Professor Longhair, his musical hero. He wanted to bring as much of the Toussaint touch as he could to these wonderful classics. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Nonesuch previously released The Bright Mississippi in 2009. Also produced by Henry, the record includes songs by jazz greats such as Sidney Bechet, Jelly Roll Morton, Django Reinhardt, Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, and Billy Strayhorn. The album received tremendous critical praise, with the Boston Globe saying it & quot;couldn't sound more like New Orleans. (Toussaint) revisits jazz classics... and takes them for a stroll through Preservation Hall, imbuing his own funky brand of pop-song charisma. The results are coolly sophisticated, an unfussy, mostly instrumental set of slink-and-slide joints shot through with a harmonic imagination that turns even a traditional hymn into an after-hours swing... Toussaint's musical soul guides all, making the classics sound like his own. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; That project indirectly grew from Toussaint's contributions to Our New Orleans, the benefit album that Nonesuch released in fall 2005 to aid hurricane victims in the wake of the Katrina disaster. That collection opens with a version of & quot;Yes We Can Can, & quot; the Toussaint song the Pointer Sisters made famous, newly recorded with producer Joe Henry, and it included a solo piano piece, & quot;Tipitina and Me, & quot; co-written by Toussaint in tribute to Professor Longhair. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Joe Henry had first worked with Toussaint when he invited the pianist to join the sessions for I Believe to My Soul, a studio convocation of mature R & amp;B stars. Henry subsequently acted as producer on Toussaint's post-Katrina collaboration with Elvis Costello, The River in Reverse. He describes the most recent sessions: & quot;I have been working with Allen Toussaint under his spell and subject to his influence for a full decade now. He was a quiet radical, musically-speaking, and a prince of great humility. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Mixed by Ryan Freeland at Stampede Origin, Culver City, CA & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Robert C.

Yo-Yo Ma, Chris Thile & Edgar Meyer Bach Trios 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Collaboration Album On Double LP! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;2021 Stereophile Magazine Record to Die For! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
The former Goat Rodeo Sessions collaborators, Yo-Yo Ma, Chris Thile and Edgar Meyer, focus on their collective admiration of Bach for this recording of Bach Trios on vinyl LP. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Nonesuch Records releases an album of Bach works recorded by cellist Yo-Yo Ma, mandolinist Chris Thile, and bassist Edgar Meyer, Bach Trios on 2LP vinyl. The album comprises works by J.S. Bach originally written for keyboard instruments, plus one sonata for viola da gamba. In 2011, Ma, Thile, and Meyeralong with Stuart Duncancollaborated on The Goat Rodeo Sessions, which won two Grammy Awards. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Yo-Yo Ma and Edgar Meyer's first recording together was the 1996 album Appalachia Waltz, which also featured fiddler Mark O'Connor; that album was followed by Appalachian Journey, also with O'Connor, in 2000. Meyer and Thile also began playing together nearly two decades ago, and first performed live as a duo in 2003. They have made two duo albums, 2008's Edgar Meyer & amp; Chris Thile and the Grammywinning 2014 record Bass & amp; Mandolin. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Thile then joined Meyer on Ma's 2008 holiday album, Songs of Joy and Peace, before the trio reunited, along with Stuart Duncan, for The Goat Rodeo Sessions, an album of original tunes drawing from the musicians' backgrounds in bluegrass, classical, and American roots music. The Goat Rodeo Session debuted at number twenty-three on the Billboard 200 chart and number one on the classical and classical crossover charts, as well as number one on the bluegrass chart, where it stayed for eleven weeks. The album was also critically praised, with the Los Angeles Times calling it & quot;haunting, invigorating, often breathtaking. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; As Ma told Billboard at that time: & lt;b & gt; & quot;How often do you work with people who are master virtuosos and also master improvisers and composers, who know at least two musical traditions unbelievably well? & quot; & lt;/b & gt; He continued, & lt;b & gt; & quot;It's just extraordinary when you have people who can actually show on their instruments what they're thinking at any moment, without a delay. As soon as you think it, it gets transferred in your neuromusculature immediately into sound. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The New York Times said of Yo-Yo Ma, who is considered one of today's foremost interpreters of Bach, & quot;Other cellists hear Bach's suites the same as Mr. Ma, but few if any have the technical means to transfer their imaginings so precisely into sound. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Throughout a lifetime of performing and composing, Edgar Meyer has turned the double bass into a modern virtuoso instrument that is equally at home in classical music and in the American vernacular. In 1994, Meyer became the first bassist to win the Avery Fisher Prize. He is also a recipient of the prestigious MacArthur Foundation & quot;Genius & quot; Award and five Grammy Awards. Meyer has found devoted audiences through a vast range of projects, from his own double bass concertos that he continues to perform regularly to recital collaborations with Emanuel Ax and Amy Dorfman and performance and recording projects with artists including Joshua Bell, Yo-Yo Ma, Béla Fleck, Zakir Hussain, Mark O'Connor, Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, Mike Marshall, and many others. The New Yorker calls him & quot;the most remarkable virtuoso in the relatively unchronicled history of his instrument. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; MacArthur Fellow Chris Thile is the founding member of Punch Brothers, which a Boston Globe reviewer recently called & quot;the tightest, most impressive live band I have ever seen. & quot; The group's four Nonesuch albums are Punch, Antifogmatic, Who's Feeling Young Now?, and The Phosphorescent Blues. Thile's other Nonesuch releases include a duet album of traditional bluegrass songs with guitarist Michael Daves, Sleep with One Eye Open, and a prominent role in the T Bone Burnettproduced soundtrack to the Coen brothers' film Inside Llewyn Davis.

This 2LP set includes remastered versions of the album's original ten tracks, including its huge hit & quot;Constant Craving, & quot; along with eight previously unreleased performances from lang's 1993 MTV Unplugged episode, recorded in New York City's famed Ed Sullivan Theater. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Ingénue was k.d. lang's fifth album, following a quartet of records that pushed the boundaries of country music. Released in 1992, the album was the first of entirely new material. lang wrote most of the songs with her longtime collaborator Ben Mink; Greg Penny co-wrote & quot;So It Shall Be, & quot; and all three produced the album. The UK's NME named it one of the year's best albums and said, & lt;b & gt; & quot;You will fall in love with Ingénue. In fact, you will want to have its children. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; As James Reed writes in the 25th Anniversary Edition liner note, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Ingénue is still such a mysterious body of work
You'd be hard-pressed to pinpoint when the album was released or even made and where. It slinks out of the speakers with luminous melodies in search of a soundtrack, its choruses as vast and sweeping as the Canadian prairies where lang grew up in Consort, Alberta. A strange brew of torch and twang, of pop gloss and jazz sophisticationand shot through with Eastern European flourishes
lang was fond of calling it 'post-nuclear cabaret' back then. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Throughout Ingénue, a succinct song cycle and ode to an unrequited relationship, we witness an artist navigating love in its many splendors. It should have come with a warning sticker on its cover: 'Love is not always pretty. Proceed with cautionand a Kleenex.' lang was unflinching in presenting desire as both toxic and intoxicating, a human condition that subsumes all of us at some point. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 25th Anniversary Edition & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Original album remastered & lt;br & gt; 8 previously unreleased MTV Unplugged performances & lt;br & gt; Gatefold jacket & lt;br & gt; Limited time MP3 download & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Ingénue - Remastered & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Over the last year, Byrne has been collecting stories, news, ideas, and other items that all either embody or identify examples of things that inspire optimism, such as a tech breakthrough, a musical act, a new idea in urban planning or transportation-something seen, heard, or tasted. Just as the album questions the current state of society while offering solace through song, the content of the series recognizes the darkness and complexity of today while showcasing alternatives to the despair that threatens us. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; While David Byrne has collaborated on joint releases with Eno, Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim), and most recently St. Vincent over the past decade, American Utopia is Byrne's first solo album since 2004's Grown Backwards, also on Nonesuch. American Utopia morphed during the writing and recording process, beginning with longtime collaborator Eno, and eventually growing to include collaboration with producer Rodaidh McDonald (The xx, King Krule, Sampha, Savages) alongside a diverse cast of creative contributors including Daniel Lopatin (aka Oneohtrix Point Never), Jam City, Thomas Bartlett (St. Vincent producer, aka Doveman), Jack Peñate, and others. The album was recorded in New York City at David's home studio, Reservoir Studios, Oscilloscope, XL Studios, and Crowdspacer Studio and in London at Livingston Studio 1. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;iframe width= & quot;560 & quot; height= & quot;315 & quot; src= & quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/euEgyXoOonk & quot; frameborder= & quot;0 & quot; allow= & quot;autoplay; encrypted-media & quot; allowfullscreen & gt; & lt;/iframe & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; Limited time MP3 download of the complete album & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Jazz Music Inspired By The Legendary Quartet Old And New Dreams On Vinyl LP! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;2019 Grammy Award Nominee: & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Best Jazz Instrumental Album & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Saxophonist and composer Joshua Redman is joined by drummer Brian Blade, bassist Scott Colley, and trumpeter Ron Miles for Still Dreaming, an album inspired by his father Dewey Redman's 19761987 band, Old and New Dreams. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Along with the senior Redman, Old and New Dreams featured an all-star lineup of Ornette Coleman collaboratorscornetist Don Cherry, bassist Charlie Haden, and drummer Ed Blackwellwho continued pushing musical boundaries as they had with Coleman even after their former bandleader moved in a new direction. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Still Dreaming features six new compositions by the new band as well as one tune by Haden and one from Coleman. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Redman told the Boston Globe that Old and New Dreams & lt;b & gt; & quot;were able to play very free, and at times abstract, thorny music. But at the same time there was a folk qualitywhether a connection to the blues, or with African music, or with very powerful, simple melodies. Their music had a vulnerability and a poignant lyricism. That balance was something very special. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; He continued, & lt;b & gt; & quot;It's not our mission to go back and rediscover some Golden Age. I'm hoping this is a band that has a lot of future ahead. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Joshua Redman's first self-titled studio album was released by Warner Bros. in 1993; eight additional records followed on Warner. His Nonesuch debut, Momentum, was released in 2005, along with the first of two SF JAZZ Collective albums on which he served as artistic director. In 2007, Nonesuch released Back East, Redman's first studio recording with an acoustic trio, followed by Compass in 2009 featuring double trio. His most recent album, 2011's James Farm, featured a band of the same name with pianist Aaron Parks, bassist Matt Penman, and drummer Eric Harland. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In 2013, Nonesuch released Walking Shadows, comprising 12 ballads; it was Redman's first recording to include an orchestral ensemble, and it was produced by Redman's friend and frequent collaborator Brad Mehldau. Redman regularly tours the world with various ensembles. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Joshua Redman is one of the most visible jazz musicians of the last 15 years, which says something not just about his natural flow as an improviser and his command as a bandleader, but also about his willingness to use words...to represent jazz to the outside world. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - New York Times & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Limited time MP3 download & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Joshua Redman, tenor saxophone & lt;br & gt; Ron Miles, cornet & lt;br & gt; Scott Colley, bass & lt;br & gt; Brian Blade, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

The Brad Mehldau Trio Seymour Reads the Constitution! 2LP (Vinyl)

His trio, which tours the world extensively, made eight acclaimed recordings for Warner Bros., including the five widely praised Art of the Trio albums with former drummer Jorge Rossy. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The Brad Mehldau Trio was named Best International Ensemble at the 2013 Echo Awards, the same year that Where Do You Start was chosen as Album of the Year by the Académie du Jazz. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The pianist Brad Mehldau has led this iteration of his pace-setting trio-with the bassist Larry Grenadier and the drummer Jeff Ballard-since 2005, and it has evolved into a graceful powerhouse, equally savvy about groove and harmony. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; New York Times & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Brad Mehldau, piano & lt;br & gt; Larry Grenadier, bass & lt;br & gt; Jeff Ballard, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Ry Cooder Chavez Ravine 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Grammy Nominated Album On Double LP! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;/header & gt; & lt;p & gt;The 12th studio album from Ry Cooder was his first concept album and historical album telling the story of Chavez Ravine. The Mexican-American community was demolished in the '50s in order to make way for public housing. That housing was never built and, instead, the Brooklyn Dodgers stadium was erected on that site when they moved to L.A. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;Chavez Ravine was nominated for Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album in 2006. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;Ry Cooder's Chavez Ravine is a post-World War II-era American narrative of & quot;cool cats & quot;, radios, UFO sightings, J. Edgar Hoover, red scares, and baseball. The album, released here on vinyl LP, is a tribute to the long-gone Los Angeles Latino enclave known as Chavez Ravine. Using real and imagined historical characters, Cooder and friends creates an album that recollects various aspects of the poor but vibrant hillside Chicano community, which was bulldozed by developers in the 1950s in the interest of 'progress'; Dodgers Stadium ultimately was built on the site. Cooder says, & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Here is some music for a place you don't know, up a road you don't go. Chavez Ravine, where the sidewalk ends. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;The musical strains of Los Angeles, including conjunto, corrido, R & amp;B, Latin pop, and jazz, conjure the ghosts of Chavez Rvine and Los Angeles at mid-century. On this 15-track album, sung in Spanish and English, Cooder is joined by East L.A. legends like Chicano music patriarch Lalo Guerrero, Pachuco bookie king Don Tosti, Three Midniters front man Little Willie G., and Ersi Arvizu, of The Sisters and El Chicano. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;A Los Angeles native, Cooder had been working in Cuba since 1998, producing The Buena Vista Social Club, Ibrahim Ferrer, Ferrer's Buenos Hermano, and Mambo Sinuendo - all Grammy Award winners. Three years in the making, Chavez Ravine marked his musical homecoming. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Los Angeles was paved over, malled up, high-rised, and urban-renewed, as fortunes were made, power was concentrated, and everything got faster and bigger, & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; comments Cooder. & lt;strong & gt; & quot;But there is a lot I miss now. The texture of certain older neighborhoods, like Bunker Hill, a rural feel in urban places, like Chavez Ravine and the timbre of life there, and just peace and quiet, & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; he says. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;blockquote cite= & quot;quote source & quot; & gt; a magical-realist street opera celebrating the life and death of the barrio that the Dodgers killed. & lt;footer & gt; -Mike Davis, author, city of Quartz, Excavating the Future in Los Angeles & lt;/footer & gt; & lt;/blockquote & gt; & lt;section id= & quot;features & quot; & gt; & lt;h3 & gt;Features & lt;/h3 & gt; & lt;ul & gt; & lt;li & gt;Double LP & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Gatefold jacket & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Manufactured in the EU & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Printed in the USA & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ul & gt; & lt;/section & gt; & lt;section id= & quot;selections & quot; & gt; & lt;h3 & gt;Selections & lt;/h3 & gt; & lt;h4 & gt;Side A: & lt;/h4 & gt; & lt;ol & gt; & lt;li & gt;Poor Man's Shangri-La & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Onda Callejera & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Don't Call Me Red & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Corrido de Boxeo & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ol & gt; & lt;h4 & gt;Side B: & lt;/h4 & gt; & lt;ol start = & quot;5 & quot; & gt; & lt;li & gt;Muy Fifi & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Los Chucos Suaves & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Chinito Chinito & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;3 Cool Cats & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ol & gt; & lt;h4 & gt;Side C: & lt;/h4 & gt; & lt;ol start = & quot;9 & quot; & gt; & lt;li & gt;El U.F.O.

The Black Keys "Let's Rock" LP (Vinyl)

The long-awaited album, the band's first in five years, is a return to the straightforward rock of the singer/guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney's early days as a band. Auerbach says, & lt;b & gt; & quot;When we're together we are The Black Keys, that's where that real magic is, and always has been since we were sixteen. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; The second song from the record, & quot; & lt;b & gt;Eagle Birds & lt;/b & gt;, & quot; follows the previously released single & quot; & lt;b & gt;Lo/Hi & lt;/b & gt;. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Let's Rock & quot; was written, tracked live, and produced by Auerbach and Carney at Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville and features backing vocals from Leisa Hans and Ashley Wilcoxson. & lt;b & gt; & quot;The record is like an homage to electric guitar, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; says Carney. & lt;b & gt; & quot;We took a simple approach and trimmed all the fat like we used to. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Rolling Stone named & quot;Lo/Hi & quot; a & quot;Song You Need to Know & quot; & lt;/b & gt;and said, & lt;b & gt; & quot;the Keys have officially returned, louder than ever & quot; & lt;/b & gt;and the New York Times calls the song & lt;b & gt; & quot;the kind of garage-boogie stomp that the band never left behind. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Formed in Akron, Ohio in 2001, The Black Keys have released eight studio albums: their debut The Big Come Up (2002), followed by Thickfreakness (2003) and Rubber Factory (2004), along with their releases on Nonesuch Records, Magic Potion (2006), Attack & amp; Release (2008), Brothers (2010), El Camino (2011), and, most recently, Turn Blue (2014). The band has won six Grammy Awards and headlined festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Governors Ball. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Dan Auerbach formed the Easy Eye Sound record label, named after his Nashville studio, in 2017, with the release of his second solo album, Waiting on a Song. Since its launch, Easy Eye Sound has become home to a wide range of artists including Yola, Shannon & amp; The Clams, Dee White, Shannon Shaw, Sonny Smith, Robert Finley, and The Gibson Brothers; it also has released the posthumous album by Leo Bud Welch as well as previously unreleased material by Link Wray. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Patrick Carney has produced and recorded new music with artists such as Calvin Johnson, Michelle Branch, Damns of the West, Tobias Jesso, Jr., Jessy Wilson, Tennis, Repeat Repeat, Wild Belle, Sad Planets, Turbo Fruits, and more. He also created the theme music for the Netflix TV show BoJack Horseman with his late uncle, Ralph Carney. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Seeing any great power duo perform live can make you scratch your head and wonder, & quot; & lt;i & gt;How do they get that much sound from two people & lt;/i & gt;? & quot; The Black Keys return to that same stripped-down approach on Let's Rock, their first album in five years... On bangers like the bluesy & quot;Shine a Little Light & quot;, the sexy-cool slowed-down & quot;Walk Across the Water, & quot; and the ever-so-twangy & quot;Get Yourself together, & quot; Auerbach and Carney sound like the garage band everyone fantasizes they'll become when they first pick up a guitar... If you like your music straightforward, crunchy, and energetic, it delivers - melodic enough to have a pop underbelly but fuzzy enough to have reverb street cred. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Karen Bells, & lt;i & gt;The Absolute Sound & lt;/i & gt;, October 2019 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;On & quot;Let's Rock & quot;, the band returns to a less refined sound, with a diverse range of styles and timbral diversity within each track. Tchad Blake's bold mixing pulls colors from instruments and voice. Contrast the near-metallic resonance of Carney's drums on & quot;Fire Walk With Me & quot; with the vivid focus on Auerbach's voice in & quot;Every Little Thing & quot;, its breathiness highlighting the distorted guitar accompaniment. & lt;/strong & gt;
& lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;
& quot;The tooth-rattling, astringent guitar licks of & quot;Shine a Little Light & quot;, the opener, introduce not the raging vocal one expects but relaxed lyric phrasing reminiscent of Lennon/McCartney. & quot;Eagle Birds & quot; is awash in heavy metal (the thunderous bass played by Auerbach), while & quot;Lo/Hi & quot; sports an R & amp;B sound, complete with backing vocals. There's something here for every rock'n' roll taste. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; - Anne E. Johnson, & lt;i & gt;Stereophile & lt;/i & gt;, June 2020 & lt;/p & gt;

Devendra Banhart Ma LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;10th Studio Album On Vinyl LP! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Singer/songwriter Devendra Banhart, known as the leader of the & quot;Freak Folk & quot; movement, writes fantastical, poetic lyrics with traces of innuendos. His latest album, Ma, is a dedication to motherhood. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Ma is a dedication to motherhood. The title of the album comes from the realization that the word 'Ma' is a very good candidate for our first utterance and our very last whisper, the word itself means 'Mother' in countless languages. The record contains 3 parallel narratives all pointing back to motherhood. The first is one of loss and helplessness, the narrative of a mother who reluctantly had to put up her child for adoption, still loving them, but unable to be with them. This became a metaphor for my own personal experience of observing my family in Venezuela, not being able to help in any meaningful way, and the constant feeling of complete helplessness. The second narrative is everything I would ever say to the children I may or may not have. The third narrative is one of celebration, of recognizing the Mother in each being, and of gratitude for music and its mothering qualities. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Ma was recorded in Big Sur and Los Angeles, CA and was produced, arranged, and recorded with my longtime collaborator Noah Georgeson. It features appearances by many, including Cate Le Bon and Vashti Bunyan, the archetype of a mother. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Devendra Banhart & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

the sound is all their own. & quot; For All Ashore, the quintetguitarist Chris Eldridge, bassist Paul Kowert, banjo player Noam Pikelny, mandolinist and lead singer Chris Thile, and fiddler Gabe Witcheragain attempt to make sense of the world around them. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; As Thile says, the album is & lt;b & gt; & quot;a meditation on committed relationships in the present day, particularly in the present political climate. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; He continues, & lt;b & gt; & quot;We were hoping to create something that would be convincing as a complete thought, in this case as a nine-movement, or nine-piece, thought.

& amp;#8226; Best Jazz Instrumental Album: Come What May & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
Joshua Redman Quartet's Come What May is the first album in almost two decades from this group of musicians - the Grammy-nominated saxophonist and his longtime friends and colleagues pianist Aaron Goldberg, bassist Reuben Rogers, and drummer Gregory Hutchinson-and features seven Redman tunes. & lt;b & gt; & quot;Mr. Redman's place is secure as one of the most effusive and engaging tenor saxophonists in straight-ahead jazz, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; says the New York Times, and the Quartet is & lt;b & gt; & quot;well attuned to his language of elastic tenacity. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The Guardian has called Redman & lt;b & gt; & quot;one of the 21st centurys finest jazz improvisers, & quot; & lt;/b & gt;and the Boston Globe said of the groups recent Newport Jazz Festival performance, & lt;b & gt; & quot;There was tenor Joshua Redman with his quartet, showing how to build excitement and get the crowd screaming without pressing or compromising his art. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Redman said of Goldberg, Rogers, and Hutchinson, in Denvers Westword newspaper, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Theyre some of my favorite musicians in the world. Weve played so much over the years and have been together on the road so much, on and off the bandstand, theres just that sort of camaraderie and friendship and genuine love for and understanding of each other that, for me, [is] the ideal situation for making music. When you have that level of trust and empathy, both musically and personally, it allows you to be truly relaxed and free; and those are really good pre-conditions for magic to potentially happen. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Joshua Redman, tenor saxophone & lt;br & gt; Aaron Goldberg, piano & lt;br & gt; Reuben Rogers, bass & lt;br & gt; Gregory Hutchinson, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Carolina Chocolate Drops Genuine Negro Jig LP (Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Grammy-Winning Folk Album On Vinyl LP! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;TAS Super LP List! Special Merit: Informal & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;2010 Grammy Award Winner: & lt;/strong & gt;
& lt;br & gt; & amp;#8226; Best Traditional Folk Album: Genuine Negro Jig & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;The Carolina Chocolate Drops are as much about revelation as revival. On its Nonesuch debut, Genuine Negro Jig, the trio brings exuberance, humor, virtuosity and an infectious acoustic groove to its exploration of a near-forgotten brand of banjo-driven
string-band music originating more than a century ago in the foothills of North Carolina, the Piedmont region where band members Rhiannon Giddens and Justin Robinson were raised. In this rural area, musicians, both black and white, once shared and swapped
tunes. Over the decades, the importance of the African-American role in string-band music was diminished, its sound and significance co-opted by minstrel shows and segregated by record labels. CCD - under the tutelage of nonagenarian fiddler player
Joe Thompson, one of the last surviving Piedmont musicians - have reclaimed the old-time songs, making them vital and fresh for right now, reasserting in the process the African roots of the banjo. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;After two self-recorded independent releases, CCD chose to work with producer Joe Henry on Genuine Negro Jig. As with his production on Allen Toussaint's The Bright Mississippi, Henry emphasizes simplicity, clarity, interaction; with its striking lack
of studio frills, the emphasis is on the spirit of these performances, which are often as intense as they are exhilarating. Uptempo numbers like live-show favorite & quot;Cornbread and Butterbeans & quot; and & quot;Sandy Boys & quot; are immediate standouts, though slow-burning,
moody tracks like & quot;Kissin' and Cussin' & quot; and & quot;Snowden's Jig (Genuine Negro Jig) & quot; prove to be downright haunting. The versatile Giddens performs the Celtic-style balladry of & quot;Reynadine & quot; acapella; she's equally convincing taking lead on a brilliant recasting
of the 2001 Blu Cantrell R & amp;B-dance hit, & quot;Hit 'Em Up Style & quot;. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Genuine Negro Jig starts out with the specific but winds up with the universal; this is music that has literally traveled continents and centuries to achieve a brand new relevance, a shared history still in the making. & lt;/p & gt;

Caroline Shaw/Attacca Quartet Orange 180g 2LP (Orange Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Grammy Award Winning Album On 180g Orange Vinyl 2LP! & lt;br & gt;
First Time On Vinyl! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;2020 Grammy Award Winner: & lt;/strong & gt;
& lt;br & gt; & amp;#8226; Best Chamber Music/Small Ensemble Performance: Shaw: Orange & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;TAS Rated 4.5/5 Music, 4.5/5 Sonics in the May/June 2021 Issue of The Absolute Sound! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;This is the first time this piece is on vinyl. The album recently won a Grammy Award and was one of 2019's most critically-acclaimed releases. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Orange, which features six of Pulitzer-Prize winning composer Caroline Shaw's pieces for string quartet, is the first full-length album to exclusively feature works by Shaw. It is also the first release in a new partnership between New Amsterdam and Nonesuch
Records, established with the goal of enabling contemporary American composers to realize creative ambitions that might not otherwise be achievable. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Shaw describes the world she built for Orange as a garden that she and Attacca Quartet are tending. She used the group's centuries-old combination of two violins (Amy Schroeder and Keiko Tokunaga), viola (Nathan Schram), and cello (Andrew Yee) to create
a rich environment where traces of what has grown there before - left by Haydn, Mozart, Ravel, Bartok, Bach, Monteverdi and Josquin - provide nourishment for new life. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Orange was met with great critical acclaim upon its CD and digital release last year. & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Completely gorgeous in so many ways, & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; exclaims BBC Radio 3. & lt;strong & gt; & quot;It hits you everywhere, all at once. & quot; & quot;A love letter to the string quartet, & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; says NPR. & lt;strong & gt; & quot;[W]hen you hear all the imaginative sounds on Orange, you know you're listening to the voice of a strong composer. & quot; & quot;[T]he pieces on Orange shoot off in thrilling and unpredictable directions, & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; says Pitchfork. & lt;strong & gt; & quot;The music of Orange exudes joy and a sense of wildness. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;

Listeners to Shaw's quartet music will hear sounds both joyous and solemn, at once ancient and post-modern, voiced by a sort of giant full-throated harmonium sighing and strumming and humming and droning dervish dances and spacey cosmic hymns while humpback whales send forth their exultant keening cries far out into the endless deep-blue sea.

Joachim Cooder Over That Road I'm Bound: The Songs Of Uncle Dave Macon LP (Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;The Songs Of Dave Macon Reworked On Vinyl LP! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;On his Nonesuch Records debut album, Over That Road I'm Bound, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joachim Cooder uses the plain-spoken songs of country-music progenitor and banjo player Uncle Dave Macon as a jumping off point, tinkering with the lyrics
and reworking melodies for his chosen instrument: an electric mbira. Cooder culled songs from Macon's vast catalog and recorded them with his band and special guests: Ry Cooder, Rayna Gellert, Juliette Commagere, Sam Gendel, Glenn Patscha, Amir Yaghmai,
Dan Gellert and Vieux Farka Tour & amp;#233;. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Joachim Cooder has been a sought-after percussionist for two decades now, on now-legendary recordings with his father, Ry Cooder, like the landmark Buena Vista Social Club sessions and on his own with artists like Ali Farka Tour & amp;#233;, who inspired Cooder
to take up the mbira. He has produced albums for other artists, composed for film, and collaborated with choreographer Daniel Ezralow. & lt;/p & gt;

& lt;p & gt;Emmylou Harris made her Nonesuch Records debut with the release of her album Red Dirt Girl twenty years ago, on September 5, 2000. To mark its twentieth anniversary, Nonesuch will release the album - which won the & lt;strong & gt;Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk
Album & lt;/strong & gt; - on limited-edition, translucent red vinyl. The initial vinyl edition of the album, released on standard black vinyl in 2016, is no longer in print. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Harris - whom the Los Angeles Times dubbed & lt;strong & gt; & quot;the most captivating female artist ever in country music & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; - wrote all but one of the twelve tracks on Red Dirt Girl, marking only the second time in her career that she had been so involved
in the composition of an album. & lt;strong & gt; & quot;In songs about lonely journeys and lost companions, & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; said the New York Times, & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Ms. Harris has found herself. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Red Dirt Girl was produced by & lt;strong & gt;Malcolm Burn & lt;/strong & gt;, who had worked with Harris engineering and mixing her previous solo studio recording, 1995's Wrecking Ball, and features Burn on piano, guitar, and bass; & lt;strong & gt;Buddy Miller & lt;/strong & gt; on lead
guitar; & lt;strong & gt;Daryl Johnson & lt;/strong & gt; on bass and drums; and & lt;strong & gt;Ethan Johns & lt;/strong & gt; on drums, guitar, and other miscellaneous instruments. & lt;strong & gt;Dave Matthews & lt;/strong & gt; sings a duet with Harris on the album, and & lt;strong & gt;Bruce Springsteen, Patti Scialfa, & lt;/strong & gt; and & lt;strong & gt;Patty Griffin & lt;/strong & gt; also contribute vocals. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Commenting on her new label and record back in 2000, Harris said: & quot;I take pride in my new association with Nonesuch, a label for whom I have great admiration. Red Dirt Girl is a very meaningful record for me. I've only written this much for an album once
before - The Ballad of Sally Rose - and I'm very pleased as well with what we have accomplished in the studio. & quot; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Nonesuch Records President David Bither, then Senior Vice President, said at the time: & quot;We have had the privilege over many years to work with some of the most creative and influential artists and producers in music. This launches a new area of musical
exploration for Nonesuch, and we are thrilled that Emmylou is the artist to open this door for us. It is an honor to work with an artist who has such a formidable body of work behind her, but who is now creating possibly the best music of her career. & quot; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Harris has since released three additional solo studio albums on Nonesuch, Stumble Into Grace (2003), All I Intended To Be (2008), Hard Bargain (2011); reissues of Wrecking Ball (2014) and her 1992 album with the Nash Ramblers, At the Ryman (2017); two
duo albums with Rodney Crowell, the Grammy-winning Old Yellow Moon (2013) and The Traveling Kind (2015); two releases in 2006 with Marc Knopfler, All The Roadrunning and Real Live Roadrunning; and vinyl box sets of her early albums, in 2017 and 2019. & lt;/p & gt;

Ry Cooder & Manuel Galban Mambo Sinuendo 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;2003 Grammy Award Winning Album On Double LP! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Mambo Sinuendo, Ry Cooders collaboration with Cuban guitar legend Manuel Galbán, hearkens back to a point in the late 1950s when Cuban popular music began to hint at a fusion of American pop-jazz and the futuristic creations of modern Cuban composers (like Perez Prado). Borne along by the mid-century mambo and cha-cha-cha crazes, the hot sounds of mambo-jazz spread out into American popular culturePerez Prado was Vegas-bound; Stan Kenton hit the road with his & quot;Cuban Fire & quot; orchestra; Henry Mancini scored Touch of Evil à la Prado; and Duane Eddy had a Top 10 hit with the mambo-esque & quot;Theme from Peter Gunn. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; But nowhere can there be found a more perfect representation of this style than in the recordings of the Havana doo-wop quartet Los Zafiros, still after decades, the most popular Cuban vocal group of all time. As Los Zafiros's guitarist and arranger, Manuel Galbán pioneered a tough, rocking guitar style that is considered by Cuban musicians to be unique in their music. Mambo Sinuendo reintroduces Manuel Galbánpianist, organist, and guitarist extraordinaire. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Says Cooder, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Galbán and I felt that there was a sound that had not been exploreda Cuban electric-guitar band that could reinterpret the atmosphere of the 1950s with beauty, agility, and simplicity. We decided on two electrics, two drum sets, congas and bass: a sexteto that could swing like a big band and penetrate the mysteries of the classic tunes. This music is powerful, lyrical, and funnywhat more could you ask? Mambo Sinuendo is Cuban soul and high-performance twang. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; For Mambo Sinuendo, Cooder has enlisted the bassist for all the Buena Vista Social Club sessions, Orlando Cachaíto López. The percussionists include longtime collaborator Jim Keltner; Cooder's son, Joachim Cooder, another Buena Vista veteran; and the conga master Miguel Angá Díaz. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Double LP & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Gatefold jacket & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Etched D-side & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Manuel Galbán, guitar (1-12) & lt;br & gt; Ry Cooder, guitar (1-12), steel guitar (1, 8), trés (2), vibes (3), electric piano (4, 7), organ (6), electric bass (6) & lt;br & gt; Jim Keltner, drums (1-5, 7, 11) & lt;br & gt; Joachim Cooder, drums (1, 4-8, 12) & lt;br & gt; Miguel Angá Díaz, congas (1-5, 7, 8, 12) & lt;br & gt; Orlando Cachaíto López, bass (1-12) & lt;br & gt; Juliette Commagere, Carla Commagere, coro (2, 6) & lt;br & gt; Gregorio Hernández Rios Goyo, Maximino Duquesne Martínez, Marcos H.

Wilco Wilco (The Album) LP (Picture Disc) (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Picture Disc LP! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Wilco's seventh release, Wilco (the album), took shape quickly in January '09 after the band traveled to Auckland, New Zealand to participate in an Oxfam International benefit project. The band began cutting tracks for the new album, producing it themselves with the help of engineer Jim Scott (Tom Petty, Rage Against the Machine, the Dixie Chicks). The sextet completed the disc at its Chicago studio and performed in April at the New Orleans Jazz & amp; Heritage Festival; where the Times-Picayune praised their & quot;thrilling, nuanced set. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Wilco (the album) combines the intimacy of its previous studio disc, Sky Blue Sky (2007), with the experimentation of A Ghost Is Born (2004) in a set that boasts strong melodies and gorgeous, often unabashedly pop arrangements. Wilco has clearly laid out the welcome mat to admirers of all aspects of its career; in fact, the disc opens with & quot;Wilco (the song) & quot; in which Tweedy & amp; Co. offer their fans & quot;a sonic shoulder to cry on, & quot; promising, & quot;Wilco will love you, baby. & quot; Talking to a Rolling Stone reporter, drummer Glenn Kotche calls it & quot;a great, upbeat song professing our love for our fans. & quot; That said, Tweedy's lyrics remain frank and fascinating; Rolling Stone calls them & quot;sly, insightful and often heartbreaking. & quot; As with Sky Blue Sky, most of the tracks are concise in shape; & quot;Bull Black Nova, & quot; however, features a dramatically building arrangement and thrilling guitar crescendo, more duel than jam. It's followed by the gentler & quot;You and I, & quot; a duet between Tweedy and Canadian singer- songwriter Feist, and & quot;You Never Know, & quot; a gloriously anthemic track that is the album's first single. The disc culminates with & quot;Everlasting Everything & quot; a piano-driven ballad with delicate sonic nuances that lyrically celebrates love's endurance. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Picture Disc & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side One: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Jonny Greenwood There Will Be Blood Soundtrack LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Acclaimed Soundtrack On Vinyl LP For The First Time! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Guitarist/composer Jonny Greenwood's Grammy and BAFTA Awardnominated score to writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson's Academy Awardwinning film There Will Be Blood, first released on Nonesuch Records in 2007, will be released on vinyl worldwide for the first time via Nonesuch. The LP was mastered for vinyl by Graeme Stewart and Christian Wright at Abbey Road Studios and pressed on 140g vinyl at Record Industry in the Netherlands with two additional tracks & quot;Proven Lands (Intro.) & quot; and & quot;De-Tuned Quartet & quot;and comes in an old-style gatefold jacket. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;One of the most memorable scores this side of the year 2000, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; exclaimed IndieWire when placing There Will Be Blood at No. 2 its list of the 25 Best Movie Scores of the 21st Century. In this adaptation of the Upton Sinclair novel Oil!, starring Daniel Day-Lewis in an Oscar-winning performance, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Greenwood's work, which is string-heavy and beautifully unsettling, is as memorable as Day-Lewis' performance ... Close your eyes and you can almost feel the oil pulsing beneath the ground. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Jonny Greenwood's musical compositions almost become another character in the film, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; says Variety. & lt;b & gt; & quot;Think Bernard Herrmann and Taxi Driver, another portrait of a twisted soul, with sound effects and music to match. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The music is performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra led by Robert Ziegler, the Emperor Quartet, Caroline Dale (cello), and Michael Dussek (piano). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;I saw some fairly long sections of the film, read the script, and just wrote loads of music, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Greenwood said of his process for composing the score. & lt;b & gt; & quot;I tried to write to the scenery, and the story rather than specific 'themes' for characters. It's not really the kind of narrative that would suit that. It was all about the underlying menace in the film, the greed, and that against the fucked-up, oppressive religious moodand this kid in the middle of it all. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; There Will Be Blood was the first of many collaborations between Paul Thomas Anderson and Jonny Greenwood. Greenwood went on to write the score for Anderson's films The Master (2012), Inherent Vice (2014), and Phantom Thread (2018), the soundtracks for which have all been released by Nonesuch. Indiewire says of their partnership: & quot;Paul Thomas Anderson fans are well accustomed to how instrumental Jonny Greenwood's music is to the auteur's body of work. Whether it's the foreboding strings in There Will Be Blood or the discordant percussion in The Master, Greenwood's original scores expertly capture Anderson's tones. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Widely known as the guitarist for Radiohead, Jonny Greenwood is also a highly respected composer. In addition to the Anderson film soundtracks, Nonesuch also released his score for Norwegian Wood, his collaboration with Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki, and his performance of Steve Reich's Electric Counterpoint. The label released Jununa collaboration between Greenwood, composer/musician Shye Ben Tzur, and a group of Indian musicians called the Rajasthan Express that was recorded in the fifteenth-century Mehrangarh Fort in Jodhpur, Indiain 2015; Paul Thomas Anderson documented the sessions for a film of the same name. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; 140g Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; First time on vinyl & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Mastered for vinyl by Graeme Stewart and Christian Wright at Abbey Road Studios & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Pressed at Record Industry & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Old-style gatefold jacket & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; 2 bonus tracks & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Rhiannon Giddens They're Calling Me Home LP (Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Rhiannon Gidddens & amp; Multi-Instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi On Vinyl LP! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;2022 Grammy Award Nominee: & lt;/strong & gt;
& lt;br & gt; & amp;#8226; Best American Roots Song: & quot;Avalon & quot; & lt;br & gt;
& amp;#8226; Best Folk Album: They're Calling Me Home & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Rhiannon Giddens' new album They're Calling Me Home was recorded with Italian multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi, and is released on Nonesuch Records. Giddens and Turrisi, who both live in Ireland when they aren't on tour, have been there since March
2020 due to the pandemic. The two expats found themselves drawn to the music of their native and adoptive countries of America, Italy and Ireland during lockdown. Exploring the emotions brought up by the moment, Giddens and Turrisi decamped to Hellfire,
a small studio on a working farm outside of Dublin, to record these songs over six days. The result is They're Calling Me Home, a twelve-track album that speaks of the longing for the comfort of home as well as the metaphorical & quot;call home & quot; of death,
which has been a tragic reality for so many during the COVID-19 crisis. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;They're Calling Me Home features several traditional songs that Giddens hasn't played for years, including some of the first old-time pieces she ever learned: & quot;I Shall Not Be Moved & quot;, & quot;Black As Crow (Dearest Dear) & quot; and & quot;Waterbound & quot;. The album also includes
a new song Giddens wrote, & quot;Avalon & quot;, as well as an Italian lullaby, & quot;Nenna Nenna & quot;, that Turrisi used to sing to his infant daughter that took on new resonance during the lockdown. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Giddens says of Alice Gerrard, the folk music pioneer, who wrote & quot;Calling Me Home & quot;: & quot;Some people just know how to tap into a tradition and an emotion so deep that it sounds like a song that has always been around - Alice Gerrard is one of those rarities;
'Calling Me Home' struck me forcefully and deeply the first time I heard it, and every time since. This song just wanted to be sung and so I listened. & quot; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;They're Calling Me Home also includes two well known songs about death: & quot;Amazing Grace & quot; and & quot;O Death & quot;. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;The minstrel banjo, accordion and frame drums that have become characteristic of the pair's sound are well represented on the album, but it's the viola and cello banjo combination that captures unexpected emotion and intensity. Joining them at key moments
are Congolese guitarist Niwel Tsumbu and Irish traditional musician Emer Mayock on flute, whistle and pipes. Engineer Ben Rawlins was key to the shape and sound of the record while Giddens and Turrisi produced and Kim Rosen mastered. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;They're Calling Me Home is the follow-up to Giddens' 2019 album with Turrisi, there is no Other, of which Pitchfork said, & quot;There are few artists so fearless and so ravenous in their exploration. & quot; Giddens earned a Grammy Award nomination (her sixth) for
the album, which is at once a condemnation of & quot;othering & quot; and a celebration of the spread of ideas, connectivity, and shared experience. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;blockquote cite= & quot;www.allmusic.com & quot; & gt;
The past pushes into the present, traditional melodies are revived alongside new compositions that feel ancient, and folk traditions from America and Europe are blended so they're difficult to parse. Giddens and Turrisi pulled off a similar trick on their
first collaboration, 2019's There Is No Other, yet They're Calling Me Home has its own distinct vibe, one that is directly tied to the COVID-19 lockdown. The pair find comfort within each other, yet they cannot shake the yearning for other people and
places, a complex set of emotions that were quite universal during 2020 and 2021 and are richly conveyed on this soulful, searching album.

Laurie Anderson Big Science LP (Red Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;1982 Debut Album Reissued On Red Vinyl LP! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Laurie Anderson's 1982 debut album, Big Science, returns to vinyl for the first time in thirty years with a new red vinyl edition due on Nonesuch Records. The vinyl includes the re-mastered original album first released on CD for the 25th anniversary of Big Science on Nonesuch in 2007. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;In the early 1980s Laurie Anderson was already respected as a conceptual artist and composer, adept at employing gear both high-tech and homemade in her often violin-based pieces, and she was a familiar figure in the cross-pollinating, Lower Manhattan
music-visual art-performance circles from which Philip Glass and David Byrne also emerged. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;While working on her now-legendary seven-hour performance art/theater piece United States, Part I-IV, which premiered over two nights at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) in 1983, she cut the spare & quot;O Superman (For Massenet) & quot;, an electronic-age update
of nineteenth century French operatic composer Jules Massenet's aria & quot;O Souverain & quot;, for the tiny New York City indie label 110 Records. In the UK, DJ John Peel picked up a copy of this very limited edition 33 1/3 RPM 7 & quot; and spun the eight-minute-plus
track on BBC Radio 1. The exposure resulted in an unlikely number two hit, lots of attention in the American press, and a worldwide deal with Warner Bros. Records. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;At the time of its original release, the NME wrote of Big Science, & lt;strong & gt; & quot;There's a dream-like, subconscious quality about her songs which helps them work at deeper, secret levels of the psyche. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; With instrumentation ranging from tape loops
to found sounds to bag pipes, Big Science anticipated the tech-savvy beats, anything-goes instrumentation and sample-based nature of much contemporary electronic and dance music. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Anderson was able to articulate in these songs, most of which were adapted from United States, the social/political anxiety she perceived in American society, as well as a longing for safety and emotional connection. The themes of Big Science include
images of planes falling out of the sky ( & quot;From The Air & quot;), the simultaneously comforting and sinister embrace of technology ( & quot;O Superman & quot;), and the failure of men and women to speak in the same language ( & quot;The It Tango & quot;). & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;blockquote cite= & quot;www.rollingstone.com & quot; & gt;
Laurie Anderson is the most compelling performer from New York City's bohemian art scene to land a recording contract since Patti Smith signed with Arista some six years ago. Big Science, Anderson's eerie aural collage of a debut album, communicates ...
her astonishing intensity.

-Stephen Holden, Rolling Stone (June 10, 1982)
& lt;/footer & gt;
& lt;/blockquote & gt;
& lt;blockquote cite= & quot;www.allmusic.com & quot; & gt;
Big Science is a landmark release in the New York art scene of the '80s, and quite possibly the best art rock album of the decade.

Byrne plays a visitor to Virgil, Texas, who introduces us to the citizens of the town during preparations for its Celebration of Specialness. As shot by cinematographer Ed Lachman, Texas becomes a hyper-realistic late-capitalist landscape of endless vistas, shopping malls, and prefab metal buildings. In True Stories, Byrne uses his songs to stitch together pop iconography, voodoo rituals, and a singular variety show. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Byrne calls the record & lt;b & gt; & quot;An immersive audio voyage into the little town of Virgil, Texas, in the mid-eighties. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; He continues, & lt;b & gt; & quot;I always imagined that the music written for True Stories should be heard as it is in the film. It makes the most sense this way. Me singing the song that was written for John Goodman's character, Louis Fine, always felt weird to me. It was written for that character, not for me. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; True Stories, A Film by David Byrne: The Complete Soundtrack contains twenty-three songs, including: one previously unreleased version of Talking Heads' & quot;Dream Operator & quot;, from the film, with Annie McEnroe on lead vocals; three songs from the film that have previously been released only on the Talking Heads sets Dual Brick or Bonus Rarities & amp; Outtakes; five songs from the companion 1986 Talking Heads studio album True Stories; and fourteen songs from the 1986 film soundtrack album Sounds from True Stories: Music for Activities Freakspreviously released only on LP and cassetteperformed by a wide range of artists from Kronos Quartet to Meredith Monk to Pops Staples to John Goodman. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;iframe width= & quot;560 & quot; height= & quot;315 & quot; src= & quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/AuUgRaBc4og & quot; frameborder= & quot;0 & quot; allowfullscreen & gt; & lt;/iframe & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Gatefold jacket & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

The album features the first recordings of the two pieces, performed by Kronos Quartet and Pat Metheny, respectively. The vinyl edition is released on the 30th anniversary of Kronos Quartet's world premiere performance of Different Trains at Queen Elizabeth Hall in London. The New York Times declared Different Trains & lt;b & gt; & quot;a work of such originality that 'breakthrough' seems the only possible description. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;Pitchfork recently called it a & lt;b & gt; & quot;late-career masterpiece, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; including the album among the 200 Best Albums of the 1980s. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Steve Reich has been hailed as & lt;b & gt; & quot;America's greatest living composer & quot; & lt;/b & gt; (The Village Voice), & lt;b & gt; & quot;the most original musical thinker of our time & quot; & lt;/b & gt; (The New Yorker), and & lt;b & gt; & quot;among the great composers of the century & quot; & lt;/b & gt; (New York Times). From his early taped speech pieces It's Gonna Rain (1965) and Come Out (1966) to his and video artist Beryl Korot's digital video opera Three Tales (2002), Reich's path has embraced not only aspects of Western Classical music, but the structures, harmonies, and rhythms of non-Western and American vernacular music, particularly jazz. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;There's just a handful of living composers who can legitimately claim to have altered the direction of musical history, and Steve Reich is one of them. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - The Guardian (London) & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; 140g Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; First time on vinyl in more than 25 years & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Mastered by Robert C.

& lt;/header & gt;
Joshua Redman Quartet's Come What May is the first album in almost two decades from this group of musicians - the Grammy-nominated saxophonist and his longtime friends and colleagues pianist Aaron Goldberg, bassist Reuben Rogers, and drummer Gregory Hutchinson-and features seven Redman tunes. & lt;b & gt; & quot;Mr. Redman's place is secure as one of the most effusive and engaging tenor saxophonists in straight-ahead jazz, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; says the New York Times, and the Quartet is & lt;b & gt; & quot;well attuned to his language of elastic tenacity. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The Guardian has called Redman & lt;b & gt; & quot;one of the 21st centurys finest jazz improvisers, & quot; & lt;/b & gt;and the Boston Globe said of the groups recent Newport Jazz Festival performance, & lt;b & gt; & quot;There was tenor Joshua Redman with his quartet, showing how to build excitement and get the crowd screaming without pressing or compromising his art. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Redman said of Goldberg, Rogers, and Hutchinson, in Denvers Westword newspaper, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Theyre some of my favorite musicians in the world. Weve played so much over the years and have been together on the road so much, on and off the bandstand, theres just that sort of camaraderie and friendship and genuine love for and understanding of each other that, for me, [is] the ideal situation for making music. When you have that level of trust and empathy, both musically and personally, it allows you to be truly relaxed and free; and those are really good pre-conditions for magic to potentially happen. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Joshua Redman, tenor saxophone & lt;br & gt; Aaron Goldberg, piano & lt;br & gt; Reuben Rogers, bass & lt;br & gt; Gregory Hutchinson, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

David Byrne Grown Backwards 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;First Time Vinyl Release! & lt;br & gt; Double LP In Metallic Sleeve! & lt;br & gt; Features 6 Bonus Tracks! & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Record Industry! & lt;br & gt; Remastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; David Byrne's Nonesuch Records debut album, Grown Backwards, first released on March 16, 2004, makes its vinyl debut almost fifteen years later. The vinyl edition comprises the original album plus six additional tracks, including a duet with Caetano Veloso on their song & quot;Dreamworld. & quot; The double LP was mastered for vinyl by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound and pressed on 140g vinyl at Record Industry in the Netherlands and comes in a metallic sleeve. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;It fits alongside the best of his career and adds another solid release to a solo catalog which will hopefully become more cherished in time, & quot; said Pitchfork in its review in 2004. & quot;In 20 years, as we straighten our faces with botulism, braces, and stem cells, the album will stand up. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Mojo gave Grown Backwards four stars, finding that & quot;some of Byrne's most deliciously quirky lyrics ensure an event-packed listen. & quot; The Guardian called the album & quot;one of Byrne's most rewarding experiments yet. These are wonderful exercises in songcraft. & quot; Uncut named it among the Albums of the Year. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; David Byrne took a different approach to writing Grown Backwardsperhaps the most personal and emotionally expressive album of his storied careerthan he had previously used. He worked from the & quot;top down, & quot; humming melodies into a micro-cassette recorder and later unscrambling them to create songsa significant change from his usual practice of starting with improvised textures and grooves and later adding tunes. The result is a richly melodic set of songs that feature strings, rhythm section, and guitar. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In addition to the eleven songs by Byrne, the original album includes two opera arias ( & quot;Un di Felice & quot; from Verdi's La traviata, and & quot;Au Fond Du Temple Saint & quot; from Bizet's The Pearl Fishers, which features a duet with Rufus Wainwright); Byrne's cover of the Lambchop song & quot;The Man Who Loved Beer; & quot; and the bonus track & quot;Lazy, & quot; Byrne and X-Press 2's 2002 hit song re-arranged by Stephen Barber based on arrangements by Dan Foster, Steven Hussey, and Anu Pillai for Freeform Five. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In describing some of the additional tracks, Byrne says: & quot;'Ausencia' is my version of an arrangement of this beautiful Cape Verdean song that was originally done by the Bosnian composer Goran Bregovi & amp;#263; for Cesária Évora. The title means 'absence,' and the lyrics are in Portuguese and Creole. & quot; And in the song & quot;Show and Tell, & quot; he explains: & quot;Cherry Hill is across the river from Philadelphia
a very funky part of town. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;'Dreamworld' was a collaboration with Caetano Veloso for a compilation album, Red Hot + Lisbon, created by Red Hot Organization, a not-for-profit dedicated to fighting HIV/AIDS, & quot; he continues. & quot;I began writing with a club girl in mind, like those I would have seen out and about in New York, and Caetano mirrored that with lyrics that referred to Carmen Miranda, the great singer and performerlater caricatured in Hollywoodwho was actually Portuguese. Marco de Canaveses, referenced in the song, was the town she was born in. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Arranged by Stephen Barber, Grown Backwards was produced by David Byrne and Patrick Dillett and features longtime collaborator Mauro Refosco on percussion and mallet instruments, Paul Frazier (Chic, Imani Coppola) on bass, and the Tosca Strings from Austin, Texas. Additionally, Carla Bley's jazz band plays on the song & quot;Empire. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; David Byrne's latest album, American Utopia, was released on Nonesuch and Todomundo Records in 2018 and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Album; a follow-up EP, & quot;
The Best Live Show of All Time & quot; NME, was released in December and contains six live tracks from the acclaimed American Utopia tour. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Double LP & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; First time on vinyl & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Remastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Pressed at Record Industry & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Metallic sleeve & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Six bonus tracks & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Rhiannon Giddens there is no Other 2LP (Vinyl)

& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;2020 Grammy Award Nominee: & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;br & gt;
& amp;#8226; Best American Roots Performance: & quot;I'm On My Way & quot; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Rhiannon Giddens's album there is no Other, recorded with the multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi, was produced by Joe Henry and tracked over five days in Dublin. The album is at once a condemnation of & quot;othering & quot; and a celebration of the spread of ideas, connectivity and shared experience. & lt;strong & gt; & quot;This is acoustic roots music at its most glorious, & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; exclaims Uncut, & lt;strong & gt; & quot;and Giddens is fast becoming the genre's brightest star in the firmament. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;Tracing the overlooked movement of sounds from Africa and the Arabic world and their influence on European and American music, there is no Other illuminates the universality of music and the commonality of the human experience. It primarily features only Giddens and Turrisi playing one or two instruments together. The album comprises a mix of original songs penned by Giddens and a diverse set of interpretations ranging from Ola Belle Reed's & quot;Gonna Write Me A Letter & quot; and Oscar Brown, Jr.'s & quot;Brown Baby & quot; to the Italian traditional & quot;Pizzica di San Vito & quot; to the aria & quot;Black Swan & quot; by Gian-Carlo Menotti. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;there is no Other was recorded with little editing and overdubbing. Giddens sings and plays minstrel banjo, octave violin and viola. Turrisi plays piano, accordion, frame drum, tamburello, lute, cello banjo, daf and colascione. They are joined on four songs by Kate Ellis on cello. The array of instruments reveal the sonic ties that bind between African, Arabic, European and American cultures. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;The double-vinyl edition includes four additional tracks, expanded liner notes, and photos from the recording session. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;Rhiannon Giddens is a celebrated artist who excavates the past to reveal bold and candid truths about our present. A MacArthur & quot;Genius & quot; Grant recipient, her acclaimed solo albums, Tomorrow Is My Turn (along with the EP Factory Girl, produced by T Bone Burnett) and Freedom Highway, received three Grammy Award nominations; her work with the Carolina Chocolate Drops (which she co-founded) received a Grammy in 2010. Giddens is also featured in Ken Burns's Country Music series on PBS. Songs of Our Native Daughters, a collaborative album featuring Giddens that tells the stories of historic black womanhood and survival, was released on Smithsonian Folkways last month to rave reviews. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;Italian multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi defies easy categorization. Called & quot;a musical alchemist & quot; by the Irish Times, Turrisi is a Turin-born musician whose Dublin base reflects his global sensibilities. With his unique ability to fold early music, pan-Mediterranean modal melodies, and European flavored jazz into a single repertoire, Turrisi has developed a musical style that crisscrosses cultures and forges musical alliances that are, at once, old and familiar and startlingly brand new. He has performed and recorded with Bobby McFerrin, jazz icon Dave Liebman, early music group l'Arpeggiata, contemporary ensemble Bang on a Can, Irish sean-n & amp;#243;s singer Roisin El Safty, and tarantella specialist Lucilla Galeazzi. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;blockquote cite= & quot;quote source & quot; & gt; She can summon the power of a field holler, Celtic quavers, girlish innocence, bluesy sensuality, gospel exaltation or the pain of slavery. She can sing velvety, long-breathed phrases or rasp and yip like a singer from the backwoods long ago.

& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Gendel's Nonesuch Debut Album On Vinyl LP! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Sam Gendel's Nonesuch Records debut, Satin Doll, was recorded in Gendel's native California. Satin Doll is a futuristic homage to historical jazz. The album features three musicians--Gendel on saxophone, Gabe Noel on electric bass, and Philippe Melanson on electronic percussion--engaging in simultaneous synchronized sonic construction/deconstruction of jazz standards, including Miles Davis' & quot;Freddie Freeloader, & quot; Charles Mingus' & quot;Goodbye Pork Pie Hat, & quot; and Duke Ellington's & quot;Satin Doll. & quot; & lt;/p & gt;

Brad Mehldau Suite: April 2020 LP (Vinyl)

& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;12 New Compositions + Covers of Neil Young, Billy Joel & amp; Jerome Kern On Vinyl LP! & lt;br & gt;
Pressed at Record Industry! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;While sheltering at home with his family in the Netherlands during the COVID-19 pandemic, Brad Mehldau wrote twelve new songs about what he was experiencing; he was able to record them safely in an Amsterdam studio, together with tunes by Neil Young,
Billy Joel and Jerome Kern that mean a great deal to him, for this album, Suite: April 2020. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Suite: April 2020 is a musical snapshot of life [at the time] in the world in which we've all found ourselves, & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; Mehldau says. & lt;strong & gt; & quot;I've tried to portray on the piano some experiences and feelings that are both new and common to many of us. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;

k.d. lang Watershed LP (Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;2008 Album Released On Vinyl LP! & lt;br & gt;
First Time On Vinyl! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;k.d. lang's album Watershed was released by Nonesuch Records in February 2008. Recorded in California, Watershed was the first album of newly written material from the four-time Grammy winner since 2000's Invincible Summer and her first studio album since
2004's acclaimed Canadian songbook, Hymns of the 49th Parallel. A fourteen-city US tour followed February 23 and included a rare three-night stand at Lincoln Center's Allen Room as part of the American Songbook series. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;As the title suggests, Watershed represented a milestone in k.d. lang's groundbreaking 25-year career. For the first time she assumed the role of producer - as well as writer, singer and multi-instrumentalist - for this album of eleven new songs. lang
reunited with longtime collaborators from both the studio and the road on the album: pianist Teddy Borowiecki, bassist David Piltch, steel player Greg Leisz and guitarist Ben Mink. Jon Hassell makes a guest appearance on trumpet, as does Nonesuch labelmate
Noam Pikelny, banjo player for the Punch Brothers. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;In contrast to lang's usual organization of albums around a particular sound (such as the clear-eyed country of Absolute Torch and Twang) or concept (as with the elegant smoking songs of Drag), the unifying theme of this work is a much more personal look
at k.d. lang and where she found herself at the time. Featuring plenty of musical and lyrical intimations of how she got there, lang explained that & quot;Watershed is like a culmination of everything I've done - there's a little bit of jazz, a little country,
a little of the Ing & amp;#233;nue sound, a little Brazilian touch. It really feels like the way I hear music, this mash-up of genres, and I think it reflects all the styles that have preceded this in my catalogue. I didn't feel the need to be genre-specific
because this experience felt so wide open. & quot; & lt;/p & gt;

Few singers command such perfection of pitch. Her voice, at once beautiful and unadorned and softened with a veil of smoke, invariably hits the middle of a note and remains there.

Watershed highlights what lang does best - fulsome ballads sung with precision-timing, intelligence and a humorous twist.

Clint Mansell & Kronos Quartet Requiem For A Dream 180g 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Legendary Soundtrack On 180g Vinyl 2LP! & lt;br & gt;
Remastered by Geoff Foster & amp; Pressed at Record Industry! & lt;br & gt;
Includes 2 Previously Unreleased Tracks! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;The vinyl for the legendary soundtrack is finally back in print! Includes two never-before-released tracks. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Clint Mansell, a musician, composer, and founding member of the band Pop Will Eat Itself, first worked with filmmaker Darren Aronofsky on the score for his 1998 film Pi. In 2000, Mansell worked with Kronos Quartet to record his acclaimed and best-selling
score for Aronofsky's Requiem for a Dream (Nonesuch), and in 2006 he scored the filmmaker's The Fountain (Nonesuch), which included performances by Mogwai and Kronos. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;For 40 years, the Kronos Quartet - David Harrington, John Sherba (violins), Hank Dutt (viola), and Sunny Yang (cello) - has pursued a singular artistic vision, combining a spirit of fearless exploration with a commitment to continually re-imagining the
string quartet experience. In the process, Kronos has become one of the most celebrated and influential groups of our time, performing thousands of concerts worldwide, releasing more than 50 recordings of extraordinary breadth and creativity, collaborating
with many of the world's most intriguing and accomplished composers and performers, and commissioning more than 800 works and arrangements for string quartet. & lt;/p & gt;
