The first re-release of the second full-length studio album by cult American Black/Death Metal band.
Due to a bunch of business related problems it took Florida’s Equinox quite a while to get this album out, but the result is definitely worth the long wait!
Equinox is one of the most underrated acts ever to emerge out of sunny Florida and “Journey Into Oblivion” a musical roller coaster ride through about an hour of classic Black/Death Metal. Unlike the current trend to blast as fast as you can, Equinox took a different direction and perform their material mostly very midpaced, partly Doomy and partly fast. The dark and very heavy riffing often brings Black Sabbath to mind, while the soloing is totally in the vintage Slayer vein. The vocals sound totally possessed and are a mixture of Black and Death Metal, yet very impressive and charismatic.
Equinox are totally old school, and that’s more than fine as they come up with songs full of interesting riffs and memorable parts. The guys still know what a good song demands in order to stand the test of time, probably because their influences come from all those acts that are eternal to many of us nowadays (Possessed, Celtic Frost, Destruction, Slayer, Bathory, Sodom, Venom, etc.).
The line-up includes guitarists Pete Slate (Druid Lord, ex-Acheron, ex-Incubus and Tony Blakk (Druid Lord, Massacre (live), ex-Diabolic (live), ex-Acheron), and vocalist/bassist Matt Wagner.
Recorded and mixed at Morrisound Studios, Tampa, Florida by Ji and Tom Morris (Sepultura, Kreator, Morbid Angel) and the band.
Completely remastered re-release on black vinyl.

Arguably, the shows with the National Philharmonic Orchestra are the most unique of all the performances. The orchestra was conducted by the legendary composer Michael Kamen. Clapton had worked with Kamen previously on film soundtracks (Rush, Lethal Weapon) so it was natural for Clapton to ask Kamen to arrange the music for orchestra.
The 13-song set on "24 Nights: Orchestral" includes stunning orchestral arrangements of “Layla”, “Sunshine of Your Love”, “Wonderful Tonight”, “White Room”, “Can’t Find My Way Home”, “Bell Bottom Blues’, “I Shot The Sheriff”, “Lay down Sally”, and “Crossroads”. A special highlight is the recorded debut of the 30-minute composition that Kamen wrote especially for Eric Clapton: “Concerto For Electric Guitar”.

The first re-release of the ninth full-length studio album by legendary British Blues Rock guitarist and singer.
It is Clapton's first collaborative project with Phil Collins, who co-produced the album and played on some tracks. While recording the album, Clapton temporarily split with his wife, Boyd. Clapton assuaged his pain by writing the song "Behind the Sun", featuring only his guitar and vocals along with Phil Collins' synthesizer, as the final song on the album.
Although he is universally considered among the most important figures in Rock & Roll, Eric Clapton has not had consistent success in translating his stature into record sales, partially because he is, in essence, a great Blues guitarist rather than a great Pop/Rock singer/songwriter. Clapton's career was in decline in the early '80s when he switched record labels from Polydor to Warner Bros., and his "Money And Cigarettes" new label debut became his first to fall below Gold record status in more than six years. As a result, Warner looked critically at his follow-up, the Phil Collins-produced "Behind The Sun", in the fall of 1984 and rejected the first version submitted, insisting that he record several new songs written by Jerry Williams, backed by Los Angeles session players under the auspices of company producers Lenny Waronker and Ted Templeman. Warner then emphasized the new tracks, releasing two of them, "Forever Man" (which reached the Top 40) and "See What Love Can Do," as Singles. Despite the tinkering, "Behind The Sun" was not among Clapton's best, although it went Gold after nearly two years in release.
After nearly a decade of Clapton's guitar playing taking a backseat to his singing/songwriting, this album contains several guitar solos. The album includes synthesizers and drum machines played by Phil Collins, Ted Templeman, Peter Robinson, Michael Omartian, James Newton Howard, Chris Stainton and Greg Phillinganes, as well as Clapton's Roland guitar synthesizer on "Never Make You Cry". Bassists Donald "Duck" Dunn from Booker T. & the MG's and Nathan East (later of the Smooth Jazz quartet Fourplay) also played on the album.
The Behind The Sun Tour was featured at the first Live Aid concert in 1985 where "She's Waiting" was performed along with "White Room" and "Layla". The video for "Forever Man" became an MTV favourite, featuring an accident where one of the cameras falls off the dolly.

50th Anniversary Edition re-release of the debut full-length solo album by legendary British Blues Rock guitarist and singer.
After being in several successful Кock bands including The Yardbirds, John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, Cream and Blind Faith, Clapton recorded an album under his own name in late 1969 and early 1970. Clapton's eponymous solo debut was recorded after he completed a tour with Delaney & Bonnie. Eric used the core of the duo's backing band and co-wrote the majority of the songs with Delaney Bramlett accordingly.
"Eric Clapton" sounds more laid-back and straightforward than any of the guitarist's previous recordings. There are still elements of Blues and Rock & Roll, but they're hidden beneath layers of Gospel, R&B, Country, and Pop flourishes. And the Pop element of the record is the strongest of the album's many elements. "Blues Power" isn't a Blues song and only "Let It Rain," the album's closer, features extended solos. Throughout the album, Clapton turns out concise solos that de-emphasize his status as guitar god, even when they display astonishing musicality and technique.
Since then, he's released nearly two dozen LPs under his name. And it's been kind of a roller-coaster ride for the guitar hero, with personal and professional setbacks often inspiring his work – from a crippling drug addiction (which kept him out of the spotlight for several years) to the death of his young son (which spurred a huge comeback hit).
Through it all, though, he's rarely lost the focus and drive that made him one of the most buzzed-about musicians in the '60s. While recent records may not be fuelled by the creative hunger that fed his best work, he's grown into his older years by playing the music that sounds right for him at this stage. If nothing else, Clapton has aged more gracefully than most contemporaries.

While recent records may not be fuelled by the creative hunger that fed his best work, he's grown into his older years by playing the music that sounds right for him at this stage. If nothing else, Clapton has aged more gracefully than most contemporaries.

The twenty-first full-length solo studio album by legendary British Blues Rock guitarist and singer.
"Happy Xmas" is the first Christmas album by Eric Clapton, which includes 13 covers of Christmas-themed songs, both well-known and relatively obscure ones, arranged in a predominant Blues style, along with one new original song "For Love On Christmas Day" by Clapton and producer Simon Climie.
Eric Clapton's first Christmas record in a career that's spanned over four and a half decades, certainly bears its share of seasonal charm, but it's also of a piece with the warm, amiable music he's made in the 2010s. Like "Old Sock" and "I Still Do" before it, "Happy Xmas" relies on songs from other songwriters and cooks to a cosy groove that's grounded in the Blues but also encompasses Soul, Reggae, Rock, and a bit of Vaudeville shuffle ("Xmas in My Hometown"). This homey atmosphere is certainly suited for the season, even if it rarely sounds like a typical holiday record. Chalk that up to Clapton studiously avoiding a reliance on shopworn carols. When he does play an overly familiar tune, he switches it up: he opens up the affair with a Blues rendition of "White Christmas", "Silent Night" is given a Reggae bounce, "Away in a Manger" has a soulful underpinning, and he turns "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" into a seduction. These clever interpretations are nestled alongside nice holiday chestnuts, turning this into a comforting Christmas listen, so comforting that it makes the presence of "Jingle Bells (In Memory of Avicii)" more bizarre. Situated in the middle of the album, "Jingle Bells (In Memory of Avicii)" is a lite-EDM tribute to the late DJ and producer, a track that is perhaps more dexterous than Clapton's '90s electronica experiment T.D.F.
Proceeds go directly to Van Morrison’s charity for out-of-work musicians, called “The Van Morrison Rhythm and Blues Foundation”.
"Happy Xmas" will deliver cheery Christmas vibes to everybody!

The twentieth full-length solo studio album by legendary British Blues Rock guitarist and singer.
The album is a combination of new material written by Clapton and classic songs, contemporary tunes, and influences interpreted in his own style.
Reuniting with producer Glyn Johns, the steady hand who guided "Slowhand" back in 1977, doesn't provide Eric Clapton with much of a jolt for this album, but it does provide the veteran guitarist with no small degree of nicely weathered warmth. Such mellowed good vibes are the calling card of "I Still Do", which otherwise proceeds along the same path Clapton's records follow in the 21st century: he blends covers of well-worn Blues standards with a couple of J.J. Cale tunes, a few old Pop standards, a Bob Dylan chestnut, and original songs that draw upon aspects of all of these.
"Spiral" and "Catch the Blues", the two EC originals that anchor the middle of the album, are handsomely crafted tunes that complement the rest of the record; they don't draw attention to themselves but rather show how hard "Cypress Grove" swings and how "Alabama Woman Blues" crawls, and reveal the lightness of "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine" and "Little Man, You've Had a Busy Day".
Although "I'll Be Seeing You" ends with "I Still Do" on a bit of a wistful note, this album is neither melancholy nor some kind of summation. It is simply Clapton being Clapton, enjoying the company of his longtime band and songs he's loved, and here he's fortunate enough to be produced by Johns, whose expert touch gives this weight and colour absent from the otherwise amiable "Old Sock". That's enough to give "I Still Do" some resonance, because Johns focuses not on the songs but the interplay: it's not a vibe record so much as it's an album about the interplay of old pros, who still get a kick playing those same old changes years after they've become second nature.

30th Anniversary Edition remastered re-release of the eleventh full-length studio album by legendary British Blues Rock guitarist and singer.
The 1989 solo album from Eric Clapton features a slew of artists including Phil Collins, Robert Cray, George Harrison, Cecil Womack, Gary Burton and more!
Heralded as a return to form for Clapton, who had struggled with alcohol addiction and recently found sobriety, the album has a 1980s electronic sound, but it also includes blues songs like "Before You Accuse Me", "Running on Faith", and "Hard Times."
Song "Bad Love" was released as a Single, reaching the No. 1 position on the Album Rock Chart in the United States, and being awarded a Grammy Award for "Best Male Rock Vocal Performance" in 1990. "Pretending" had also reached the No. 1 position on the Album Rock Chart the previous year, remaining at the top for five weeks.
The album reached number 2 on the UK Albums Chart and 16 on the US Billboard 200 chart, and it went on to become double Platinum in the US.
Remastered from the original analog master tapes, double vinyl in gatefold cover.

The Soundtrack-Single by legendary Swedish Hard Rock/Glam Metal band.
"Rock The Night" first released in 1985 as a single from the soundtrack to the Swedish film "On The Loose". The song was written by vocalist Joey Tempest in 1984 and premiered on the band's Wings Of Tomorrow Tour the same year. Just more than a year and a half later, in 1986, the song was re-recorded and re-released as the second international Single from the album "The Final Countdown". The original 1985 release has a rawer, more "Metallic" Hard Rock sound than the more polished version released from "The Final Countdown" the following year. The B-side for both releases was a 1985 re-recording of the band's debut single, "Seven Doors Hotel".
There were two music videos released for "Rock The Night", one corresponding to each of the different versions. The original 1985 version, directly incorporated into the "On the Loose" film, features the band performing the song on stage, interspersed with shots of various audience members singing along and otherwise observing/reacting to the song. The second video was directed by Nick Morris and shot at the Hard Rock Cafe in Stockholm. It was the first Europe music video to feature the band's new guitarist Kee Marcello, since the original guitarist John Norum (who had recorded the guitar parts) had left the band weeks before the video shoot. The video begins with Europe arriving on their tour bus and walking into the Hard Rock Cafe, where the people inside are watching a video... of Europe's "Rock the Night". Some customers start recognizing them. Joey begins singing while the band is looking at the Cafe's order menu. The other band members use forks and other improvised "instruments" to mime the music. The rest of the people inside soon become a crowd, clapping and cheering them on. Live footage was also included, although overdubbed by the studio version of the song. After the chorus, Joey uses a ketchup bottle as an imaginary microphone, before the waiter delivers a real wireless one. Right before the solo, Kee removes a guitar from the Cafe's wall. They take the stage during the solo and perform the remainder of the song.
The 1986 release became a Top 10 hit in France, Germany, Holland, Spain, Belgium, Ireland and Switzerland, and peaked at #12 on the UK Singles Chart and #30 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States in early 1987.

The first and the lead Single from the fourth full-length studio album, “Out Of This World”, by legendary Swedish Hard Rock/Glam Metal band.

EUROPE “The Final Countdown” /7” Single/
- Product Code: EPCA 7127
-
€ 5.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 59
The first and the title Single from the third full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Hard Rock/Glam Metal band.
Written by lead singer Joey Tempest, the song was based on a keyboard riff he made in the early 1980s, with lyrics inspired by David Bowie's "Space Oddity". The band had not originally planned to release the song as a single, and some members wanted "Rock the Night" to be the first single. "The Final Countdown" was written to be an opening song for concerts, and they never thought it would be a hit. When their record company Epic Records suggested, however, that it should be the first single, the band decided to release it.
"The Final Countdown" became a success on the charts worldwide after its release during 1986 and 1987, reaching number one in 25 countries (including the UK, where it spent two weeks at the top, and was certified Gold in that country in 1986, and is Europe's only Top 10 hit to date), and is widely regarded as the band's most popular and recognizable song. The single reached number 8 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, and is the most successful song from the album on the Billboard's Album Rock Tracks chart, peaking at number 18 (and charting for 20 weeks). The song is also the band's highest-charting single in Australia and Canada, peaking at number 2 and at number 5.
The music video by Nick Morris, made to promote the single, has received over 1.3 billion views on YouTube. The video features footage from the band's two concerts at Solnahallen in Solna, Sweden as well as extra footage of the sound checks and footage from Stockholm.
The song "Pictures", from the 2017 album "Walk The Earth", is a sequel to "The Final Countdown".
"The Final Countdown" 7-inch vinyl features the iconic title track on the A-side and "On Broken Wings" on the B-side. Released by Epic Records, this 45 RPM staple of 80s Glam Metal remains a highly collectible piece of Arena Rock history and 1986s global anthem!
