Halestorm: The strange case of [Vinyl LP]

There are certain albums in the extensive Neil Young Archives that take on a unique life of their own. Maybe it's their rarity, or a galvanizing reputation that sets them apart. One of the most anticipated releases in this ongoing musical march is the live collection ODEON BUDOKAN<br/>Originally recorded in 1976 almost a world apart at two overseas venues: Hammersmith Odeon in London and Nippon Budokan Hall In Tokyo. The ten-track album includes an electrifying range of songs, from well-known classics to true surprises.<br/><br/>This is the first official vinyl release of the previously unissued ODEON BUDOKAN. It has only been available on Compact Disc as part of Neil Young's ARCHIVES VOLUME II box set, released in 2020 in the highest-grade audio high fidelity.

Jethro Tull: Warchild II [Vinyl LP]

Den här veckan är det 30 år sedan Lisa Ekdahls självbetitlade debutalbum släpptes. Det firas med att för första gången pressa plattan på vinyl! <br/><br/>När den gavs ut 1994 gick marknaden över till CD och vinylformatet övergavs. <br/>Albumet blev hursomhelst en omedelbar succé och lade grunden för Lisas fortsatta karriär. Med låtar som "Vem vet", "Benen i kors" och "Öppna upp ditt fönster" toppade albumdebuten listorna i Sverige och Norge och passerade nyligen gränsen för 6 x platina i Danmark. Med sin jazziga vispop skrev Lisa Ekdahl in sig i historieböckerna om den svenska popmusiken.

Sällskapsjuk är inspelat i Halmstad och som titeln signalerar, består albumet till största delen av duetter med en rad starkt lysande sångare.

10 new songs that capture the raw, idiosyncratic rock and roll spirit and lyrical beauty that epitomizes a classic NYCH collaboration. <br/>Recorded this summer under a full moon, in a restored off-grid 19th century barn high up in the Rockies, the Horse was right at home and the album's stunning love songs, reflective ballads and powerhouse rockers naturally burst into life.

Noise & Flowers documents a 9-date tour that began just two weeks after Young's lifetime friend and manager of more than 50 years, Elliot Roberts, passed away at age 76. Performing alongside a photograph of Roberts taped to his road case, Young approached each show as a celebratory memorial service to honor his late friend. It's a trek the legendary singer/songwriter describes as "wondrous."<br/><br/>"Playing in his memory [made it] one of the most special tours ever," Young says in the album's liner notes. "We hit the road and took his great spirit with us into every song. This music belongs to no one. It's in the air. Every note was played for music's great friend, Elliot." In paying tribute to the manager who guided Young's career for over a half-century, Noise & Flowers explores all corners of his vast discography. <br/><br/>It balances all-timer anthems ("Mr. Soul," "Helpless," "Rockin' in the Free World") with rarely aired '70s deep cuts ("Field of Opportunity," "On the Beach") and '90s gems ("From Hank to Hendrix," "Throw Your Hatred Down"). His frequent backing band since 2015, Promise of the Real effectively bridges the extremes in Young's sound, infusing his raging rockers and country serenades with their casual brilliance and telepathic intuition.
