VA - Troubadours: Folk & The Roots Of American Music (12 CD, 2012-2014/FLAC/320]

 

In the one hundred years that folk music has been recorded in the United States, the tradition has embraced ballads - mostly new, but some transplanted from Europe, political statements, personal introspection, and much more. Now the story is here from the 1920s to the 1970s and beyond in four exclusive 3-CD sets. Through this music, we feel it all from the isolation of early twentieth century Appalachia through the economic and political upheavals of the Depression, War, and Civil Rights eras to contemporary west coast singer-songwriters looking within for inspiration. The story is here: original artists and original versions in stunning sound with detailed notes from folk scholar Dave Samuelson.

Eagles- Transmission Impossible (1973-94) [3 CD, 2017] (FLAC + 320)

 

Three CD ser featuring The Eagles finest live performances. Featuring four magnificent live broadcast recordings from the Eagles from across their career, all boasting superb audio quality and enticing set lists, this compilation of the group in concert is destined to become the definitive live collection documenting this extraordinary collective. Including an early show from the band recorded in the Netherlands in 1973 while the guys were on their first European jaunt, disc one further features their set at the California Jam Festival in 1974, which includes a guest appearance from Jackson Browne. Disc 2 continues with the Eagles show from The Forum in Inglewood, CA, at the beginning of the next decade in 1980, a rare broadcast which features the wonderful King Of Hollywood - a tune rarely played live - and an excellent version of Joe Walsh s Turn To Stone , among other favourites. Disc 3 concludes this compilation with an acoustic set from Burbank, CA in 1994, with the boys playing a selection of their very finest and best known songs, when even at this late period in the group s history it is clear that the Eagles had lost none of their live prowess or dynamic performance skills.

Pink Floyd - Discovery Boxset [14 studio albums remastered, 2011] (FLAC + 320)

 Since 1967 Pink Floyd have produced one of the most outstanding and enduring catalogues in the history of recorded music. All 14 original Studio albums have now been painstakingly digitally remastered by James Guthrie (co-producer of The Wall), and are reissued with newly crafted packaging and booklets created by the band’s long-time artwork collaborator Storm Thorgerson.

The Discovery editions collect the band's original 14 studio albums, newly remastered for 2011. They were released worldwide on 26 September 2011. The albums can be purchased individually or in a box set which also includes a 60-page book designed by Storm Thorgerson. All albums feature newly designed booklets and CDs. Many of the album covers have been modified to be textless (in 2016 the same remasters were reissued under Pink Floyd Records label and all modifications to the covers were reverted; the discs also got their previous artwork instead of "Discovery" logo from 2011 issues).
