First released in 1992 under the general title "Tangazo!" (after Piazzola's piece), this exceptional recital was the first in what promised to be a series of Argo recordings featuring Michael Tilson Thomas and his own New World Symphony. That project fizzled out when Argo did, as did this talented orchestra's subsequent deal with RCA. Still, collectors can take heart that these fantastic performances, including reference editions of the Chávez Sinfonia India, the Ginastera Estancia Suite, Revueltas' Sensamayá, and the Piazzola, are now available at budget price. The sonics were superb in 1992 and still are. Ten Twinkies and a Devil Dog chaser to all concerned. [7/17/2001]

"The evolution of guitar is firmly secure in the hands of these kind of players… it's just a new level, the tone, the touch, the notes!" - Steve Vai

These Dreams Will Never Sleep: The Best Of Graham Parker 1976-2015 includes 90 tracks across six CDs, a compilation live DVD, a 36-page hardcover book featuring a new interview with Parker and an overview written by Holly A. Hughes, plus a poster and three postcards.. These Dreams Will Never Sleep, The Best Of, 1976-2015 celebrates the incredible 40 year career of one of Britain's most seminal songwriters - Graham Parker. The 124 track box consists of three anthology discs with some of Graham's best loved recorded work as a solo artist and with The Rumour - one of the UK's pioneering pre-punk bands. The Live At The BBC 19 track disc includes very rare, choice picks from Graham Parker & The Rumour's 1979 Live At Hammersmith Odeon show, and Live From BBC Sight and Sound in 1977. Discs five and six are Live From The London Forum, these never before heard recordings are taken from Graham Parker & The Rumour's last ever live show in 2015, and also feature the legendary Rumour Brass Section for the first time since 1980.

This is a collection of mostly re-recordings and live versions. Some of tracks are familiar but there are quite a few less common tracks and that is what makes it interesting to me. I believe there are 20 VA collections in this series.

Gretchen Wilson set the country music charts on fire with her smash single "Redneck Woman" and her debut album, Here for the Party (2004). The track – though composed by colleague John Rich (of Big & Rich) – became an anthem for women all over America. Written especially for Wilson, it is from-the-gut, working-class feminism for the post-feminist age, straightforwardly sung with a celebratory vengeance. As a slice-of-life singer who embodied and brought to life each cut on the album, she became an "overnight sensation." Her follow-up, All Jacked Up (2005), was recorded and rushed out by Sony a year later…..
