Robert Shook

After recordings of Beethoven’s complete symphonies, two Ravel albums, one Rautavaara album, and the award-winning album ‘Americascapes’, Robert Treviño now turns his focus on the symphonic poems by Ottorino Respighi (1879–1936).Together with the RAI National Symphony Orchestra Robert Treviño presents the composer’s famous Roman Trilogy, an exciting orchestral masterpiece culminating in the triumphant Pines of Rome.

This is B.B. King's most delightful recording of the '90s. He duets with other blues greats, including Koko Taylor ("Something You Got"), Buddy Guy ("I Pity the Fool"), Etta James ("There's Something on Your Mind"), Ruth Brown ("You're the Boss"), and his dear friend John Lee Hooker ("You Shook Me"). The peaks come in his guitar shootout with Texas Telecaster slinger Albert Collins on "Call It Stormy Monday" and his high-spirited run-in with Katie Webster, who steals their performance of "Since I Met You Baby" with her saucy asides.

After 8 solo albums for Island Records culminating in the huge commercial success of 'Riptide', Robert Palmer found a new recoring home with EMI in 1988 with the release of 'Heavy Nova', but what hadn't changed was his very diverse range of material and styles, from self-penned rockers and ballads to covers of heavy funk and Tin Pan Alley. Heavy Nova includes the enduring smash hit single 'She Makes My Day'. 'Don't Explain' followed in 1990 and was also typically multi-faceted, presented in two parts: the first a rocking guitar-led set of songs, and the second half a soundtrack to an ambitious planned musical. 'Don't Explain' includes the hits 'Mercy Mercy Me/I Want You' and the collaboration with UB40, 'I'll Be Your Baby Tonight'. The ten bonus tracks include remixes and non-album single tracks.
