Little Tobias Lilja

Live effort by Little Sonny with his son on guitar (by then the largest audience they have ever played, as said on an interview in this album). The two interviews and three singles, specially The Creeper (a must for harp players later re-recorded by Mark Hummel) add a little flavor on top as nice and rare extras.

After acquiring a substantial following with Dreamboat Annie, Heart solidified its niche in the hard rock and arena rock worlds with the equally impressive Little Queen. Once again, loud-and-proud, Led Zeppelin-influenced hard rock was the thing that brought Heart the most attention…

This CD reissue features trumpeter Booker Little at the beginning of his tragically brief career. The first six selections find the distinctive soloist playing with a quintet also including the young tenor George Coleman, pianist Tommy Flanagan, bassist Art Davis, and drummer Max Roach (who was his regular employer at the time). Little contributed three now-obscure originals and also plays two standards and an early version of Miles Davis' "Milestones." The remainder of the CD has lengthy versions of "Things Ain't What They Used to Be" and "Blue 'n Boogie" from a jam session that matched Little with fellow Memphis-based players including Coleman, altoist Frank Strozier, and the masterful pianist Phineas Newborn. Overall, this forward-looking hard bop set is easily recommended.

MelodicRock Classics is thrilled to partner with LITTLE AMERICA, one of the label's favourite American rock acts of the late 80s, to deliver a career spanning release simply titled 'Anthology'. Featuring all the songs from their two acclaimed studio albums, the set also includes a whole range of previously unreleased tracks - several live tracks from the band's first tour; 3 Alt-Versions of tracks from the debut and a handful of unreleased tracks from the band's second album recording sessions. The complete Little America recording sessions in one place for the first time. Little America, a four-piece group from Los Angeles, cranked out two of the best AOR albums of the eighties: The self-titled “Little America”, which had the top-ten hit “Walk On Fire”, and their second album, “Fairgrounds”, which also yielded a top-ten track “Where Were You”.

Little Raine Band has been jamming in venues and across radio waves in Birmingham and beyond for over a decade now, and the band is entering a new realm of music goodness with today’s release of “Beyond The Cave”! The band will celebrate the release of their latest masterpiece at Saturn Friday evening, and the guys are ready to get back to playing in front of their hometown. The current collective of Davis Little (guitar/vocals), Daniel Raine (keyboard/vocals), Isaiah Smith (bass), and Charles Gray (drums) feels like they’ve put out their best work yet with this new album, and the Saturn show will be a celebration of this return to groovin music.
