Suzanne Vega Tales From The Realm Of The Queen Of Pentacles LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;First New Studio Album in 7 Years! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; One of music's most acclaimed singer/songwriters, Suzanne Vega has crafted a stunning new collection of songs showcasing her trademark wit and poetic writing. Vega's first new studio album in seven years, 'Tales from the Realm of the Queen of Pentacles, & quot; coming out on her own Amanuenis Productions on February 18, 2014, features ten new songs that tap into her broad range of musical tastes, intertwining Dylan/Stones-inspired guitar-driven songs such as & quot;I Never Wear White & quot; to lush orchestral strings and trumpet flourishes on & quot;There is a Road & quot; to soul-packed background vocals and Vega's masterful classic folk elements. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; A longtime fan of hip hop as well, Vega samples the 50 Cent hit song & quot;Candy Shop & quot; for one of the more atmospheric tracks on the album, & quot;Don't Uncork What You Can't Contain. & quot; This is Suzanne's first sampling effort - although her song & quot;Tom's Diner & quot; has been interpolated countless times in the hip-hop community, she has not sampled anyone else until this album. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;A lot of my older albums, especially the second one, was about being solitary, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; says Suzanne Vega. & lt;b & gt; & quot;This album has more of a sense of connectivity, there is a different spirit. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Fans, die-hard and casual, will find this connection immediately. & 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.

Aimee Mann Mental Illness LP (Pink Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;2018 Grammy Award Winner! & lt;br & gt; Best Folk Album: Mental Illness & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Limited Edition Pink Vinyl LP Includes Die-Cut LP Cover! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Aimee Mann's first solo studio album in 5 years pressed on Limited Edition Pink Vinyl & amp; housed in a die cut LP cover. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; After originally breaking onto the music scene during the '80s leading the post-new wave pop group Til Tuesday, Aimee Mann has gone on to establish herself as one of the most distinguished singer-songwriters of her generation. Her successful solo career has spanned several decades with several Grammy nominations, one Grammy award and the release of seven critically acclaimed solo albums, including the profoundly popular soundtrack for the film Magnolia, which garnered an Academy Award nomination for Best Song in 2000. Time magazine has said, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Mann has the same skill that great tunesmiths like McCartney and Neil Young have: the knack for writing simple, beautiful, instantly engaging songs, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; while NPR voted her one of the & quot;TOP 10 Best Living Songwriters & quot; along with Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, and Bruce Springsteen. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;By eschewing the lush instrumentation of some of her early solo records, Mann and producer Paul Bryan give Mental Illness an exceptionally spacious feel that works to her advantage and highlights Mann's melodiescontemplative, longing, vulnerableas well as her wordssolitary, reflective, honest. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Craig Dorfman, Paste Magazine & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Melancholy feels good sometimes, and with a voice as affecting and nuanced as Mann's, it's easy to get wrapped up in the drama. Songs like 'You Never Loved Me', 'Simple Fix', and 'Patient Zero' reel on by with poppy melodies that stick in your head long after you've tossed the vinyl back in its sleeve. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Michael Roffman, Consequence of Sound & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Limited Edition Pink Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; Die-cut cover & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

& lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;New Aimee Mann Album On Vinyl LP!
& lt;/strong & gt;
& lt;/header & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Aimee Mann started working on a musical, based on the memoir Girl, Interrupted. But it takes years for a Broadway show to get produced. So Aimee ended up going into the studio and recording all the songs for the musical herself. Queens of the Summer Hotel
is the result. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt; & quot;Suicide is Murder & quot; is the first single from Aimee Mann's upcoming album, her first since her 2017 Grammy-winning album, Mental Illness. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;blockquote cite= & quot;www.allmusic.com & quot; & gt;
Mann turns these...tunes into a richly textured record, one that is deep in feeling and controlled in execution....The combination of the airiness of the arrangements and the warmth of Mann's performance is wistfully hopeful, turning Queens of the Summer
Hotel into a record that soothes and consoles during moments of uncertainty.

The album is her first release since 2008's celebrated @#% & amp;*! Smilers. Of Charmer, her eighth studio album, Mann comments, & quot;I'm fascinated by charming people and the whole idea of charm. It's hard to remember sometimes that there is usually an agenda behind the act of being charming, and that is what I'm most interested in. Is someone's charm being utilized just to try and entertain people, make them feel special and interesting, or is there a more sinister purpose behind it? Sometimes I think 'charm' can just be another word for 'manipulation'. & quot; The album also includes a duet with James Mercer of The Shins on & quot;Living A Lie & quot;. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Since her last album, Aimee has performed for the President at the White House, appeared as herself on the TV series Portlandia and fast became an internet darling. Named one of The Huffington Post's & quot;13 Funny Musicians You Should Be Following on Twitter, & quot; Mann has gained a diehard social media following for her quick wit and stinging observation, much of which is reflected on this album. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;One of the finest songwriters of her generation. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - New York Times & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;If you like good singer songwriters and you've never heard of Aimee Mann; do yourself a favour and check this album out then catch her on tour if she's coming near you - I know I hope to. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- www.gettothefront.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;iframe width= & quot;600 & quot; height= & quot;338 & quot; src= & quot;http://www.npr.org/templates/event/embeddedVideo.php?storyId=158573974 & quot; frameborder= & quot;0 & quot; scrolling= & quot;no & quot; & gt; & lt;/iframe & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Limited Ediiton - 5000 Copies & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Ryan Freeland at Master Disk & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Rainbo Records & lt;br & gt; Gatefold jacket with grommeted spinning disc on the cover & lt;br & gt; 4-color inner sleeve & lt;br & gt; Includes Full Lyrics & lt;br & gt; Limited Time MP3 Download Card & lt;br & gt; Orange Vinyl & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt;Aimee Mann, acoustic guitar, vocals & lt;br & gt; Paul Bryan, bass, background vocals, mellotron & lt;br & gt; Jamie Edwards, piano, keyboards, electric guitar, tubular bells & lt;br & gt; Jebin Bruni, piano, keyboards & lt;br & gt; Chris Bruce, electric guitar & lt;br & gt; J.J.
