George St. Clair - Ballads of Captivity and Freedom CD

 

Part western balladeer, part borderland chronicler, songwriter GEORGE ST. CLAIR is a master of conjuring feelings and images of lives past and present. Growing up on the high plains of Texas put George in touch with the vastness of the American West, and his songs evoke the dry deserts, rolling grasslands, and high mountains of his West Texas homeland. Living for the past several years in the UK has given him a renewed perspective on the land where he grew up, and these reflections take shape on his new album.

Karney - No Mercy CD

 

Anna Karney has been making great music for many years, performing across the US and collaborating with many talented and notable artists. She has put out several singles and EPs as a solo artist and together with her band, and will release the fifth full-length KARNEY album of original songs titled NO MERCY in stores and online March 9, 2018. Keeping her mind on social justice and positive messages, Anna Karney’s lyrical content offers a sardonic and sometimes straightforward approach to many of the issues facing people today, with a message of hope resonating throughout every song she writes.

Cosmic Wool - Cosmic Wool CD

 

Formed from the ashes of Anti-Mortem (Nuclear Blast Records), Cosmic Wool is a little less metal tinged, opting to pull things back and go straight down the traditional rock route and even experimenting with electronics and keyboards - something that never would have happened in their previous "life." The material on the band's self-titled full length is a very personal affair and the culmination of years of tearing down and rebuilding.

Billy Cobham - Spectrum 40 CD Cat#: CMC2 IDC#: IDC0631

 

In the summer of 2015, Cobham released a live CD recording from last years' celebrated Spectrum 40 tours, which dazzled audiences around the world in commemoration of the 40th anniversary of Spectrum CD, the defining album of the jazz-fusion genre. Ever since his breakthrough in the early 1970s-as a founding member of the Mahavishnu Orchestra, and as a drummer/leader whose recordings (such as Spectrum) and powerful, complex style of play exerted a strong influence on the course of jazz and jazz-fusion-Billy Cobham has remained a tireless musical explorer.
