Limited edition 6CD Box Set featuring six live performances from 1972, 1974, 1989 and 1995. Consummate playing, from the master, throughout these great sounding recordings. Mastered from the original FM broadcasts. Also includes a cd of influences and original versions. I have been a fan of Mr. Cooder since the 70s, he has such a defined sound on the string instruments he plays - various acoustic and electric guitars and mandolins, and musically I can (almost) travel the world with him, Regardless of who he is accompanying, there is always something coherent that inspires me.
Vigilante is the sixth studio album by the English rock band Magnum, released in 1986 on Polydor. Capitalising on the success of On a Storyteller's Night, Magnum changed to a more commercial direction with Vigilante. Produced by David Richards and Queen drummer Roger Taylor, the band's sound stepped towards that of 1980s Queen, with keyboards much higher in the mix than guitar. The album was recorded at Queen's famous Mountain Studios in Montreux. Three singles were released to promote the album, "Lonely Night", "Midnight (You Won't Be Sleeping)" and "When the World Comes Down". Tracks such as "Lonely Night", "Need a Lot of Love", "Midnight (You Won't Be Sleeping)" and "Vigilante" laid the groundwork for the group to reach their commercial and creative peak on their follow-up UK Top 5 album, Wings of Heaven.
