Splash 2016

ANOTHER SPLASH OF COLOUR is the first compilation to document the Psychedelic Revival which hit the British music scene in the first half of the Eighties. This 3-CD set expands upon an original V/A LP, A Splash Of Colour, issued by WEA at the start of 1982 and including many of the Nu Psych scene’s major players: Mood Six, High Tide, Miles Over Matter, The Barracudas and The Times. All the musical tracks from this landmark album now appear on CD for the very first time!

Splash was a jazz rock group from Söderhamn which was active from 1969 until 1979, whose roots began in the early 60's where several band members met as a part of a pop group Why. By the year 1973 the group has released its first album (similar to brass rock of the likes of Chicago) and stabilized the line-up which lasted up to the end of 70's where Splash evolved their sound over longer and more instrumental compositions which bore more similarities with fusion influenced by folk music.
The "Splash 1970-1979 - Samtliga Inspelgingar" was released in 2018, re-releasing the entire Splash catalogue with lots of bonus material.

‘Sharon…’ is an eclectic soundtrack for the early ‘80s covering post punk, mod revival, ‘60s revival, independent scene, rockabilly/cowpunk, garage, London soul/funk, reggae dub and commercial pop, pre C86 with its looking back and looking forward, and what it isn’t, the extremes of the SAW production line of the late ‘80s and another era entirely.

Orange Mountain Music presents this new limited edition 11 disc boxed set - The Symphonies by Philip Glass. This collection features conductor Dennis Russell Davies who has arranged the commission of nine of ten Glass symphonies, leading the orchestras over which he has presided during the past 15 years including the Bruckner Orchester Linz, Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra, Sinfonieorchester Basel, and the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra. This collection is the fruit of a 20 year collaboration between Glass and Davies and showcases a wide variety within this surprising body of work by Glass.

For the Alice Cooper fans who feel his output was spotty before and after the 1989 classic Trash on Epic, Brutal Planet is a cause to rejoice. It is a solid hard rock offering. Cooper is in great voice, and he sounds mean and spirited…

Of course you already know these songs - all these songs; but maybe not these versions. It’s as if someone broke into your house while you were out and re-arranged the furniture. All in all, this collection brings together a treasure trove of familiar songs - with the added thrill of an unfamiliar spin. Discover these outstanding versions in this 3CD set featuring Connie Francis, Sam Cooke and The Marvelettes.
