Digipack.<br/><br/>Jeff Lynne:<br/>"Music is such a powerful force in our lives. A good song can make people feel much less alone in this universe. And trying to create one of those songs somehow makes me feel less alone too. My whole life-from being that kid with a dream in Birmingham right until today-proves how much music can do".<br/><br/>Som alltid med ELO är Jeff Lynne producent, kompositör, ledsångare och gitarrist. I september 2014 stod Jeff Lynne's ELO som huvudakt på BBC Radio 2:s "Festival In A Day" i ett utsålt Hyde Park i London med 50 000 konsertbesökare på plats och nära en miljon tittare via BBC. Detta var första festivalspelningen för Jeff Lynne's ELO på 30 år.<br/><br/>Lynne är det kreativa geniet bakom ELO. Den legendariske gruppen har sålt mer än 50 miljoner album världen över och de har haft över 20 hits på topplistan i USA och Storbritannien. Jeff Lynnes vision med ELO har sedan start varit att skapa moderna rock och poplåtar. Samma mål kvarstår nu 30 år senare när han skapat ny musik för albumet "Alone in the Universe".<br/><br/>Jeff Lynne är en av musikhistoriens största, och han är en av grundarna av ELO. Lynne är också en av grundarna och medlemmarna av Grammybelönade supergruppen The Traveling Wilburys. Han har producerat musik åt och samarbetat med The Beatles, Roy Orbison, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Tom Petty och Joe Walsh. 2015 hedrades Jeff Lynne med en stjärna på 'Hollywood Walk of Fame' och han är en aktiv välgörare i organisationer som St. Jude Research Hospital, MUSICARES och H.E.A.R.T (Helping Erase Abuse Related Trauma).

DeVille Willy & Mink: Collected 1976-2009 [Digipack / 3 CD]

Swedish rock legends Europe will release their 10th album, "War of Kings", in March 2015 on UDR Records. Recorded at the brand new PanGaia Studios in Stockholm, Sweden, produced by Dave Cobb (Rival Sons) and engineered by John Netti, War of Kings sees the classic rocking quintet confidently creating 11 monsterously melodic, yet hard-hitting, classic rock'n'roll standouts for their fervent global audience. War of Kings will be available in multiple formats, as a CD digipak, a CD jewel case, a vinyl LP and in digital download format. The album will be released in the UK on March 2nd, Japan on March 4th (via JVC), the EU on March 6th and the US on March 10th.<br/><br/>Joey Tempest: "War Of Kings is the album we always wanted to make, ever since we were kids listening to bands like Zeppelin, Purple and Sabbath.<br/>And after hearing Dave Cobb amazing production for Rival Sons we simply had to work with him. Our adventure is still ON!"<br/>Europe's place as a legendary classic rock band was platinum-stamped early in their career, having enjoyed an explosive period of worldwide success in the '80s, under-pinned by their hit album and single The Final Countdown, before going on hiatus between 1992 and 2003. They re-united and quickly settled into a period of re-establishment which has seen them re-enforce their reputation worldwide as one of the premier purveyors of blues-tinged classic rock with an edge and some kick. Their last album, 2012's Bag of Bones, saw Europe hit the UK top 40 rock album charts and debut at #2 on the Swedish national charts, and War of Kings is set to take full advantage of the global groundwork Europe have put in over the last few years.<br/>Joey adds "Hey! We took the long road! but we wanted to re-establish Europe the proper way. It's taken 10 years and countless tours since the re-union, but we're finally getting there! And we've done it our way!"<br/>Europe will commence their roadwork supporting War of Kings with a UK/Ireland tour in Dublin on March 2nd (their first visit to Ireland in 25 years) before continuing in the UK with Black Star Riders.<br/>Joey - "Looking forward to 'tons' of touring in 2015!<br/>It's getting harder and harder to be modest and humble about this band! It doesn't get much better than this!"<br/><br/>Europe are:<br/>Joey Tempest - lead vocals, acoustic & rhythm guitar, keyboards<br/>John Norum - lead & rhythm guitars, backing vocals<br/>John Leven - bass, backing vocals<br/>Mic Michaeli - keyboards, piano, backing vocals, rhythm guitar<br/>Ian Haugland - drums, percussion, backing vocals
