Grand Palladium Into Limbo

Four CD set. Features both of the concerts performed by Rick Wakeman, the English Rock Ensemble and the English Chamber Choir at the London Palladium. In February 2023, Rick Wakeman performed two sell out concerts at the London Palladium which celebrated his most acclaimed work as a solo artist and as a member of Yes. The first concert saw Rick Wakeman, the English Rock Ensemble and the English Chamber Choir, conducted by Guy Protheroe perform his first solo work, 'The Six Wives of Henry VIII' and 'The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Roundtable', while the second night's concert featured a set of classic Yes material and 'The Meeting' (originally performed by Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman And Howe), along with the multi-platinum-selling solo work 'Journey to the Centre of the Earth'

Alice in Chains both epitomized the solemn, heavy Seattle sound of the 1990s and stood apart from the grunge hordes. What separated Alice in Chains from their alt-rock brethren was how their roots lay in heavy metal, not punk. Guitarist Jerry Cantrell and vocalist Layne Staley both played in metal bands prior to the formation of Alice in Chains in 1987 and they released the band's debut, Facelift, in 1990, well before Nirvana's Nevermind pushed the underground into the mainstream. Despite their connections to metal, Alice in Chains thrived in the glory days of grunge, and it wasn't merely a question of timing, either. The band's sensibility fit into the alternative rock zeitgeist of the early '90s.

Palladium Reagents and Catalysts Innovations in Organic Synthesis Jiro Tsuji Okayama University of Science, Okayama, Japan Palladium Reagents and Catalysts brings to synthetic organic chemists the many applications of organopalladium chemistry, highlighting the most recent discoveries in this rapidly expanding field. This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the development of many innovative synthetic methods, using palladium reagents either as catalysts or stoichiometric reagents. Palladium is the most versatile of the transition metals used in organic synthesis and knowledge of this rapidly expanding and challenging area is essential for all synthetic organic chemists. Palladium Reagents and Catalysts fulfils, systematically and efficiently, the urgent need for understanding the essence of organopalladium chemistry.
