"Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers" gick rakt in på Billboard-listans första plats och blev Lamars fjärde amerikanska listetta! Albumet gästas bland annat av Bixst, Sampha, Ghostface Killah m.fl. Kritiken har varit mycket bra och Kenrick Lamar hyllas för sin öppenhet och texternas djup där <br/>mycket rör sig kring faderskapets glädjeämnen men också ångest.<br/><br/>Lamar anses av många vara sin generations mest inflytelserika rapartist och han har bland annat fått Pulitzer-priset för musik, första och enda gången priset har getts till en artist som inte verkar i jazz-genren. Han kan också skryta med 14 amerikanska Grammys, en Oscars-nominering och inte mindre än 70 miljoner sålda album, enbart i USA.

Sedan mitten av 80-talet har Megadeth med Dave Mustaine vid rodret släppt album och turnerat och anses av många vara ett av de största namnen inom den klassiska thrash metal-genren. Mustaine levererar som alltid en käftsmäll till platta och albumet gästas också av ingen mindre än <br/>Ice T.<br/><br/>Mustaine som startade sin karriär i Metallica har oförtrutet och kompromisslöst levererat hård metal och till på kuppen också fått till hits som "Symphony of Destruction".

In 1972, Jethro Tull released the instant classic, Thick As A Brick. 50 years on and the album is still revered as one of rock's and progressive rock's most definitive and pioneering albums. It featured a rock first, one continuous song on both sides. Thick As A Brick came about following the release of Jethro Tull's immensely successful previous album "Aqualung". Upon its release, Aqualung was regarded a concept album in the music press, and in response the band set about to respond to the rock critics with the ultimate concept album, culminating in Thick As A Brick.<br/><br/>To celebrate the 50th anniversary, Thick As A Brick has been reproduced in its original format, the legendary 12-page newspaper. The vinyl is a half-speed master of Steven Wilson's 2012 remix.<br/><br/>Unlike any other records on the market, the album is set inside a broadsheet newspaper, "The St. Cleve Chronicle & Linwell Advertiser". The newspaper includes many news articles packed full of continuing jokes, a crossword, connect-the-dots and much more. It was originally written by Ian Anderson, Jeffrey Hammond and John Evan, with the newspaper taking longer to put together compared to the music. As reported in the paper, the lyrics were credited at the time to the fictitious child character, Gerald Bostock, whose parents supposedly lied about his age. Amongst the many articles is a frank review of the album itself. Thick As A Brick was the first album to feature drummer Barrie Barlow, who featured alongside Ian Anderson, Martin Barre, John Evan and Jeffrey Hammond. <br/><br/>A must for any record collection, the album is a half-speed master of Steven Wilson's 2012 remix, providing the ultimate audio experience of the progressive rock classic. By cutting at half speed you give the cutting stylus as well as the whole system twice as long to record the mechanical groove, which hugely improves the quality.

180 gram vinyl.
