David Gilmour [Blu-spec CD2] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [Limited Release]David GilmourA very good solo albumIt's a very well balanced and a very cohesive work. "David Gilmour" is, in my humble opinion, an album that, despite remaining in the area of Pink Floyd's music, also explores other musical areas but only if they were very close to that area. So, "David Gilmour" is a very good album and if you like the inimitable guitar sound of David Gilmour, especially on Pink Floyd's album "Animals", the resemblance is obvious, you mustn't miss this album, for any kind of reason. It should please Pink Floyd's fans. It boasts strong songs, great guitar work and Gilmour's ever-charming vocals.

Universal SyncopationsMiroslav VitousA master!!Freedom reigns supreme on Universal Syncopations, bassist Miroslav Vitous’ 2003 release. For his first disc in seven years, he assembled a dream team of pianist Chick Corea, drummer Jack DeJohnette, saxophonist Jan Garbarek, and guitarist John McLaughlin. He provided the musicians with maps that infused the sessions with an open and expansive mindset. The maps contained the tunes’ harmonies, melodies, and motifs. The rest was left open to interpretation.

Some Girls [SHM-CD] [Priced-Down Reissue]The Rolling StonesPrime StonesThis album from the Rolling Stones still amazes. The year was 1978 and very few had the same musical attitude and the same creativity when it came to cover art. The enclosed lyrics are a big bonus if you want to dig deeper into what Mick Jagger is actually singing about...

On Every Street [SHM-CD]Dire StraitsSouthern StraitsWe all have our favourite album by The Dire Straits. This is mine. Why? Because this is where the musical influences from the American South shines through. I hear Memphis, Nashville and New Orleans in Mark Knopfler's songwriting and production. More of the same came with Mark's soloalbums. Great stuff!

8-tracks [Limited Edition]Pink FloydNice Japan releaseThe Pink Floyd 8-Tracks compilation album is a concise, 8-track anthology curated by producer Steven Wilson. While largely criticized by long-time fans as a corporate release following the catalog sale to Sony, it features excellent mastering and the official release of the rare Animals 8-track version of "Pigs on the Wing".

Nagayama Yoko 40 Shunen Kinen Pops & Enka Best [4CD+2DVD]Yoko NagayamaAmazing pop and enkaI absolutely love Yoko Nagayama. My brother bought this for me in May as I'm a fan of Yoko Nagayama. It contains some of her best pop such as "Haru wa Sara Sara", her iconic "Venus" and her underrated cover of "Take My Breath Away". The Enka is also a real treat, as it's my favourite genre. Though I was a bit surprised to see that "Uso Datto Itte" was not included. "Jonkara Onnabushi", "Higurashi", and "Suterarete" to name a few of her iconic Enka songs on this dvd. A must have for fans of old J-pop, Enka, or Nagayama herself.
