Rock Candy Records specialists did some time ago great remasters to SURVIVOR‘s catalog minus the band’s classic “Eye Of The Tiger“. Finally they got the rights for the reissue and their own remastering treatment, featuring the hard to find Special Extended Version of the iconic title track.

Although a touch underrated, Jazz at Oberlin is one of the early Dave Brubeck classic recordings. The interplay between the pianist-leader and altoist Paul Desmond on "Perdido" borders on the miraculous, and their renditions of "The Way You Look Tonight," "How High the Moon" and "Stardust" are quite memorable. Brubeck's piano playing on "These Foolish Things" is so percussive and atonal in one spot as to sound like Cecil Taylor, who would not emerge for another two years. With bassist Ron Crotty and drummer Lloyd Davis giving the Quartet quiet and steady support, Brubeck and Desmond were free to play at their most adventurous.

Ella Fitzgerald began her glorious association with the newly formed Verve label in 1956, and her Verve album debut Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Cole Porter Song Book, bankrolled the label’s initial success. Singles taken from that album turned out to be big hits, as did many other singles in this collection, all of which were pulled from Ella's albums and helped make them top-selling LPs. Jukebox Ella: The Complete Verve Singles, Volume 2 provides 3 CDs worth of snapshots of Fitzgerald, singing with an incomparable level of artistry, whether it’s songs by Cole Porter, the Gershwins or the Beatles.

Robert Wyatt continues to follow his singular musical path with the lovely Shleep, delivering another album of considerable quirky charm and understated beauty; a less melancholy affair than much of his recent work, the record is informed by a hazy, dreamlike quality perfectly in keeping with the elements of subconsciousness implicit in the title.

This is one of the best examples of timeless music. Environmental ambience with slow intense beats and liquid melodies including a lot of "Berliner Schule" sequencing is the best way to describe this rich music. The only exception to this is the track "Aura" that sends you into slow meandering dreamscapes with its Tetsu-typical pure, positive, floating sound of ambience.

Newly remastered. Originally released in June 1985, Mötley Crüe’s third studio album, Theatre of Pain, ushered in a bold new sound and look while still maintaining the band’s signature hard rock intensity. This trendsetting album set the template in terms of style and music for many bands that followed, while the Crüe themselves continued to evolve with each album.

Celeste’s second studio album Woman Of Faces will be released on November 14th on Polydor Records. Produced by multi-GRAMMY® award winner Jeff Bhasker and Beach Noise, the album features nine songs, including the previously released singles ‘Woman of Faces’, ‘On With The Show’ and ‘This Is Who I Am’.Stemming from the slow unravelling of a romantic relationship, and her determination to emerge from the other side triumphant, Woman Of Faces is a body of work born out of pain, but also a steadfast resilience to keep moving forward, even when everything else felt like it was falling apart. From the orchestral highs to the gut-wrenching lows, it’s a chronicle of heartbreak, recovery and reclaiming control. Unflinching and unfiltered, it’s the sound of an artist learning to trust herself.

David Fray stands out as one of today’s most distinctive French pianists, widely acclaimed for his profound interpretations of Bach. This new album draws its core from L’Enfant oublié (2023), a theatrical project co-created with actress and director Chiara Muti, premiered at the artist’s own festival L’Offrande musicale, dedicated to disability awareness.
