Star Thistle The Best of Star Thistle (2021)

An English hard rock institution founded by former Deep Purple vocalist David Coverdale, Whitesnake emerged in the late 1970s with a style steeped in the driving British blues-rock of bands like Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin, and of course, Deep Purple. After recalibrating their sound to better adapt to the burgeoning '80s hair and pop-metal scene, they found commercial success with 1984's Slide It In and then cannonballed into the mainstream in 1987 with the release of their multi-platinum-selling eponymous seventh effort, which spawned the power ballad "Is This Love" and the massive crossover number one hit "Here I Go Again."

Absynthe Minded, the moniker under which Bert Ostyn and his entourage have been writing Belpop history for years, dives into their twentieth year in 2001-2002 (the first demos date from 2001, the first demo with band was released in 2002). For two decades - an eternity in the current music circuit - the band has been dealing in fresh indie pop interspersed with jazz, gypsy swing and rock. Excellent songwritership with the characteristic warm voice of Ostyn on top, summarized in seven long players, of which the last feat of arms 'Riddle Of The Sphinx' saw the light of day in June 20.

French producer, drummer, songwriter, and arranger Marc Cerrone is one of disco's most influential figures, and easily the most significant European disco artist besides Giorgio Moroder.

Rare is the musician who can be part of an iconic band and still manage to carve out a path of their own that is as, if not more, creatively rich and accomplished as that which made him famous. Count Gerry Beckley as one of those precious few. You will know him as half (originally one-third) of America, a troupe that celebrated its 50th anniversary last year and enjoys a legacy of enduring hit singles. Keeping The Light On: The Best Of Gerry Beckley offers a generous 20-track overview of Beckley’s solo output - and beyond. The album also includes five previously unreleased tracks and showcases how prodigious Beckley’s output is when he’s in songwriting mode.
