Everybody knows that Black Sabbath's legacy rests on their first four albums – after that, they lost their luster, or more precisely their mythic power. At their peak, which is how they are remembered, Sabbath were all about myth and power. Their very name had an ominous resonance, capturing their murky, foreboding sound perfectly…

Classical / Romantic / Belle Époque / Mélodie / Piano Solo

This album is a feast for the ears–4 CDs of little-played, virtually unknown solo piano music by Reynaldo Hahn, born in Venezuela but a resident of France from the age of 4, and therefore sounding more like French romantics like Debussy than Argentine composers like Piazolla–there's nary a tango in sight. What we have here are dozens of brief (many as short as 1 minute), delicious melodies expertly played by the hyper-talented Cristina Araiagno. There's also a bonus DVD about the making of the CD with more info on the composer and the pianist. Just when you thought you'd heard the entire piano repertoire, here comes a delightful surprise.

Aretha Franklin has simply been one of the greatest singers of the modern generation, and whether bringing her powerful, passionate voice to bear on gospel standards, songs from the Great American Songbook, jazz standards, pop ditties, or deep Southern soul and R&B, she has always had the presence – much like Ray Charles – to make anything she touches unmistakably hers. Franklin began her career in gospel when she was still a teenager, and her amazing vocal talents, coupled with her fine piano playing, marked her as a once-in-a-lifetime kind of artist, qualities very apparent to legendary talent scout John Hammond, who signed her to Columbia Records.

The great importance for boxed sets is to bring a chance for new fans to know the previous albums of some artists. In the case of “Total Terror”, that assemble all HOLY TERROR material, is a great opportunity for many fans…

This collection brings together unplugged and acoustic-based performances recorded over the past 20+ years, including rare and unreleased studio and live recordings, acoustic demos, concert videos, interviews and more.

Having done a remaster with panache on Sunburst Finish from 1976 (and reviewed so eloquently by Ian Canty here) Cherry Red (or Cheery Red as my computer often prompts) are back on the Be Bop Deluxe trail with Be Bop Deluxe’s legendary 1975 album released on the (legendary, naturally) Harvest label. Legendary maybe because we tend to look back with a rose-tinted glow at a set recorded with the legendary Roy Thomas Baker at the legendary Rockfield Studios by Bill Nelson and his troops…

The first disc, aptly subtitled The Very Best of Glenn Frey, is chock-full of major chart hits, including the Beverly Hills Copsmash "The Heat Is On," the gritty, slide-guitar-driven gutbucket groove of "Smuggler's Blues," the epic Miami Viceballad "You Belong to the City," the inward-looking poignancy of "Soul Searchin'," and much more…
