Boytronic is a German music group that plays Synth-pop. It was founded in 1983 by Holger Wobker and Peter Sawatzki in Hamburg, Germany as Kapitän Sehnsucht (Captain Desire). The original Boytronic released two synthpop albums: The Working Model (1983) and The Continental (1985). The record company, claiming rights to the band name, put together a completely different line-up in 1986.
Celebrating 10 years since they first recorded together, Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga return for another collaboration featuring the best of the Cole Porter Songbook. This album captures the creative and personal relationship of these two world-famous artists. Tony, who turns 95 on August 3, has spent over 7 decades dedicated to performing the Great American Songbook. Both artists are accompanied by the Brian Newman Quintet with arrangements by Marion Evans & Jorge Callandrelli.
Dexter Gordon and his Quartet of 1964 (pianist Tete Montoliu, bassist Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen and drummer Alex Riel) had a three-month engagement at the Montmartre Club in Copenhagen, broadcasting on the radio every other Thursday. SteepleChase has released these consistently exciting (and well-recorded) performances on six CDs. Love for Sale features the impressive group jamming on the title cut, "Cherokee," two Gordon originals (including "Big Fat Butterfly" which has the tenor taking a brief vocal) and an emotional rendition of "I Guess I'll Hang My Tears out to Dry." It's recommended, as are all of the releases in this valuable Dexter in Radioland series.
