Status Quo: Driving to glory 2024 [CD]

December 10th, 2022 was a memorable night when British rock band Magnum played the final show of their European tour at KK's Steel Mill in Wolverhampton and, as they had done on all previous nights, wowed their fans from the first to the last note. The concert was recorded by a number of video cameras and state-of-the-art audio equipment, which later turned out to be a real blessing because it was - as we know with hindsight - the last official live recording starring Magnum founder Tony Clarkin. The guitarist and main songwriter died unexpectedly on January 07th, 2024, just a few days before the release of Magnum's studio album 'Here Comes The Rain', including a bonus DVD featuring the Wolverhampton show.<br/>Due to the huge demand and to mark the first anniversary of Clarkin's passing, 'Live At KK's Steel Mill' will be available on Steamhammer/SPV from January 10th, 2025, for the first time on double CD, triple LP and for digital download. The album presents Magnum as an enthusiastically celebrated act whose repertoire of hits, classics and newer material could hardly be more varied.

Vinyl LP + Poster.<br/><br/>A bruising and shadowy return to form from original Smashing Pumpkins members Jimmy Chamberlin, James Iha, and Billy Corgan. Recorded in the immediate aftermath of their 33- song concept album, &lsquo;Atum&rsquo;, &#039;Aghori Mhori Mei&#039; harkens back to the band&rsquo;s early 90&rsquo;s canon; where guitars, bass, drums, and spiking vocals ruled.

The exact relationship between Henry (T-Bone Burnett) and Howard Coward (Elvis Costello) remains ambiguous. They often referred to themselves as "One and a Half Brothers," which might hint at their height difference or imply they were not actually siblings but were involved in an elaborate ruse. <br/><br/>Their musical partnership, known as The Coward Brothers, was initiated by Smiley "Doc" Snipson, who discovered Henry Coward in 1956 and signed him for a UK tour. The brothers' hit single, "My Baby Just Squeals (You Heel)," was followed by less successful records and a controversial Cold War-themed song. To preserve their fading fame, Snipson orchestrated their supposed death in a plane crash, but they were actually in hiding on a Caribbean island, secretly recording music and sending it back to Snipson.<br/><br/>When their funds ran out, they returned to Miami and made sensational claims about writing famous songs, leading to a brief stint as songwriters for Bill Bogguss. They later resumed recording, but their partnership eventually fractured, leading to years of estrangement.<br/>Their music, from early rock and roll hits to later, more introspective songs, is compiled in the album, The Coward Brothers. After years of silence, their story was explored in a radio program, revealing the complexity of their relationship and their enduring bond. Despite their tumultuous history, their music remains a testament to their unyielding spirit.<br/><br/>The Coward Brothers are Elvis Costello and T-Bone Burnett. The Audible Original radio play, The True Story Of The Coward Brothers, is directed by Christopher Guest, and stars Howard Coward, Henry Coward, Harry Shearer, Edward Hibbert, Rhea Seehorn, Stephen Root, and Kathreen Khavari.

Crockett Charley: Visions of Dallas [Vinyl LP]

Natt til ende is the last and final conclusion in the trilogy about the "night". This last chapter is my manifest of the final ending of christianity and death of "Jesus", in both physical and mental shape. Naturally this also lifts the idea and concept of forces christianity calls evil. The same forces I would call natural and human. They may be described as in a dream or in a more harsh speech. The idea that "god" lives on in, and through man, is to me repulsive, and this trilogy, and then this album is my perspective on how I see this should come to an end. This is black metal, this is the end of all false hope and "light". To a new bright beginning! (Ciekals, October 2024). Natt til ende is the 9th Djevel album, to be released on Aftermath Music on November 15, 2024. The album was produced, mixed and mastered by Ruben Willem.
