2CD bootleg that has been circulating amongst Clash fans for a long time: CD1 is the infamous Mick Jones version of the eventual album "Combat Rock", commonly referred to as "Rat Patrol From Fort Bragg." CD2 features a number of related outtakes, instrumentals, and live tracks from the Combat Rock/RPFFB era. On the first two tracks of CD1 the names in parentheses are alternate titles. Almost all of these tracks feature different arrangements, alternate lyrics, extra verses, or a combination of the three,when compared with the versions eventually released– in addition to the tracks that were never released in the first place.

It was distinctly ironic: at the very zenith of America's postwar space-age love affair with TV, 3-D, and rock & roll (and other disposable cultural ephemera), a grassroots movement set out to recapture the country's lost musical heritage. These curious minds not only found it in a wealth of seemingly forgotten protest songs, spiritual blues, and country laments, but also forged new songs in its image. That this crusade sprang from lower Manhattan's Washington Square and the doorstep of New York University made the paradox all the sweeter. Ted Myers, the producer of this triple-disc anthology, grew up just blocks from the epicenter of that folk-quake, and his generous sense of place and time permeates this rich collection. Generally misunderstood and historically pigeonholed, the era finally gets its due, chronicled here by 72 tracks that extend far beyond the roots-conscious work of Woody Guthrie, the Weavers, Ramblin' Jack Elliott, and Pete Seeger on one hand, and the more popular material by the Kingston Trio, Limeliters, Joan Baez, and Bob Dylan on the other. Culturally, the Folk movement was the alt-rock of its day–if eminently more conscious of history and politically committed.

Depressive black metallers Ghost Bath have emerged from beyond the veil with their new album, Rose Thorn Necklace, through long-time partner Nuclear Blast. Free from the Moonlover-Starmourner-Self Loather conceptual trilogy, sole proprietor Nameless (aka Dennis Mikula) explores the most intense and introspective Ghost Bath's oeuvre, advancing with blackened blasts and melancholic movements while moving his only child forward into the unknown. Hoisted into the firmament by the shimmering 'Vodka Butterfly' and the dissonant bliss of 'Well, I Tried Drowning' on one end and lowered into Mikula's personal abyss with 'Dandelion Tea' and the riveting title track on the other, Rose Thorn Necklace is absolute danger and haunting beauty.

Art Forms of Dimensions Tomorrow, a key transitional album in the Sun Ra catalog, was produced in two sessions shortly after the bandleader's 1961 migration from Chicago to New York (with a brief stopover in Montreal). One of about a dozen Arkestra albums compiled from recordings made at the Choreographer's Workshop, Art Forms displays Sun Ra's increasing tendency to juxtapose stylistic incongruities on vinyl in the interests of showcasing his versatility—or accommodating restless attention spans (perhaps his own).

He played the characteristic mix of styles of dance bands in the 1920s. George Olsen was a drummer and bandleader from Portland, Oregon, who made his name playing in hotels and then in Broadway shows, and despite latterly not being one of the best known names of the era had a string of 49 hits between 1925 and 1945. He played the characteristic mix of styles of dance bands in the 1920s, featuring a blend of hot dance music alongside his more familiar style of middle-of-the-road orchestral music, gradually introducing featured singers after his initial hits, and becoming typical of the "sweet" orchestras of the 1930s who were popular on radio. This 49-track 2-CD collection solely comprises all his career hits, which came out on the Victor, Columbia and Majestic labels. It includes the No. 1 hits "Who", "Always", "A Precious Little Thing Called Love", "Lullaby Of The Leaves" and "The Last Round-Up", plus the Top 3 hits, "Sunny", "Drifting And Dreaming", "Horses", "Someone To Watch Over Me", "Blue Skies and "The Best Things In Life Are Free". There were no notable stars among his featured vocalists, but they include Fran Frey, Bob Borger, Bob Rice, Jack Gifford, his wife Ethel Shutta, Paul Small, Dave Marshall, Joe Morrison Judith Blair and Ray Adams. Featuring only his hits, this is a thorough look at one of the consistently popular and successful bandleaders of the '20s and '30s.

- A celebration of the 40+ years Girlschool rocked the world, beginning with their independently released 45 disc "Take It All Away" and "It Could Be Better."CD 4 features many rare B-sides and non-album cuts as well as demos from 1978 to 2002 and CD 5 features an extremely rare live Painted Lady recording from before Girlschool.

For fans of: The Runaways, Rock Goddess. First time that this show has been made officially available on CD in a new, exclusive CD. Filmed at the Camden Palace on December 7th, 1984, this recording captured the London-based Queen’s of heavy metal, Girlschool, while they were midway through recording their 1985 album, ‘Running Wild’. After a run of classic albums for Bronze Records, home of Motorhead and Uriah Heep, Girlschool had been signed to American major label, Mercury Records. Featuring Cris Bonnaci on lead guitar, and vocalist Jackie Bodimead, alongside founder members Kim McAuliffe and Denise Dufort, with bassist Gil Weston, unsurprisingly this set features a total of five songs – ‘Running Wild’, ‘Are You Ready?’, ‘Nowhere To Run’, ‘Love Is A Lie & Can’t You See’ - from the yet to be released ‘Running Wild’, their first album without lead guitarist and lead singer Kelly Johnson. This raucous, hour-long set was originally filmed for TV, while acting as a useful promotional tool for the imminent US release (inexplicably, the album wouldn’t receive an official release outside of the States until 2015, when it was made available on CD for the first time by HNE). Featuring liner notes from Rich Davenport, based on new interviews with Kim McAuliffe.

Legendary pianist Cecil Taylor enjoyed a month-long residen- cy in Berlin in June and July 1988, during which he began an artistic partnership with drummer Tony Oxley which lasted until Taylor’s final public performances in 2016. Recorded at the Outside In Festival in Crawley, UK in September 1988, Flashing Spirits is a high-intensity, extraordinarily beautiful piano-drums duo, previously unreleased and a revelation even for listeners who followed Taylor’s long and unceasingly exploratory career.

BELOVED is the highly anticipated second full-length studio album from seven-time GRAMMY®-nominee and multiplatinum-selling R&B singer-songwriter, GIVĒON. With his smash single “TWENTIES,” and “RATHER BE,” the singer continues to show his growth, both as an introspective songwriter and an empathetic human being.

Caravelli, real name Claude Vasori (12 September 1930, Paris, † 1 April 2019, Le Cannet) was a French orchestra leader, composer and arranger of orchestral music. The son of an Italian father and a French mother, Vasori was initially instructed in music by his mother in piano and voicing/harmony at seven years old, and later, when he was thirteen he began to attend the Paris Conservatoire. Caravelli is named "Caravelli And His Magnificent Strings" for the UK, US, South American and Japanese markets (from 1966), not to be confused with Caravelli Et Ses Violons Magiques for the French market (from 1960 to 1966).

The second volume of Sibelius' complete symphonies series features the 4th and 5th symphonies, the light and shadow of the composer's masterly musicality. Adding one the composer's most famous pieces, "Finlandia," this disc displays the delicate, rich expression of music through the combination of Vladimir Ashkenazy and the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic.

I think that purists will object to the very Slavonic approach to Brahms in these readings. I do not fall into this category and found them immensely enjoyable. The Borodin Trio and Rivka Golani convince one that they are authoritative players even if their bias is rather too much towards succulent sonorities and an overtly emotional use of tone. They do not fall into the trap of over-projecting the music and without denying their own temperaments are still able to offer a definite style of interpretation.
