The Christmas Oratorio (German: Weihnachts-Oratorium) BWV 248, is an oratorio by Johann Sebastian Bach intended for performance in church during the Christmas season. It was written for the Christmas season of 1734 incorporating music from earlier compositions, including three secular cantatas written during 1733 and 1734 and a now lost church cantata, BWV 248a. The date is confirmed in Bach's autograph manuscript. The next performance was not until 17 December 1857 by the Sing-Akademie zu Berlin under Eduard Grell. The Christmas Oratorio is a particularly sophisticated example of parody music. The author of the text is unknown, although a likely collaborator was Christian Friedrich Henrici (Picander).

When Colin MacIntyre's debut Mull Historical Society single Barcode Bypass (Rough Trade) was named NME's Debut Single of the Year in 2000, and it then received it's first daytime airplay (all 7 minutes of it) on Radio 1 - Jo Whiley's show, it was clear a truly original song-writing talent had emerged as if fully formed - and from the unlikely Atlantic outpost of the isle of Mull, in the Scottish Hebrides (population of 2,500 people, 28,234 sheep).
Chevelle is an American rock band that formed in 1995 in Grayslake, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. Collection includes all studio albums and two live albums.
Soundgarden’s third album found them making a bid for the mainstream. Though often lumped in with other Seattle bands that broke during the early '90s, Soundgarden was always unabashedly classic rock—less a departure from The Doors and Led Zeppelin than a post-punky extension of them, carried in part by the wail of singer Chris Cornell. Poised between the heavy-metal leanings of their earlier albums and their dark commercial peak (1994’s Superunknown), Badmotorfinger found the band sharpening their songs and clarifying their sound, turning piles of sludge and grit into viable radio hits (like “Outshined” and “Rusty Cage”). Here, a remastered edition of the album joins a spate of demos and outtakes, as well as a blistering 1992 live set previously released only on VHS.
