The first compilation album by cult British Pop-Rock band.
With a voice that was perfect for AOR, John Waite and his band The Babys shared the airwaves with groups like Journey and Foreigner in the late '70s and early '80s. His Rock-tender vocals accompanied electric guitar and ample keyboards, resulting in some appealing yet not overly flamboyant music.
“Anthology" spans the years 1976–1980 of The Babys, and brings together ten of this band's best songs in a short but concise Greatest Hits collection. All three of their charted songs are here, including "Isn't It Time" and "Every Time I Think of You", which both peaked at number 13 in 1977 and the latter again two years afterwards. "Back on My Feet Again" also broke the Top 40, hitting number 33 for three weeks in 1980. Each of their five albums are represented on this hits package, and the inclusion of Jonathan Cain on keyboards for 1980s "Back on My Feet Again" greatly enhanced their music, adding some texture and dimension. The song "Money" had not appeared on any The Babys album.
Cain, who replaced Mike Corby and bass player Rick Phillips, went on to play with San Francisco's Journey, where his keyboard artistry was better utilized. Although the songs are simply arranged and the lyrics are plain, there is still some music worth hearing among this set, such as the previously unreleased "Money" and the honest sounding "If You've Got the Time." "Turn and Walk Away" has some smooth background singing from Anne Marie Leclerc, and "Head First" is a catchy tune with Waite showing off his clean voice.
Even though John Waite had greater success as a solo artist, hitting number one with "Missing You" in 1984, his work with The Babys showcases his talents within a band atmosphere.
The album charted at number 138 on the Billboard 200.

The second full-length studio album by Portuguese Blues Rock band.
Their story begins with the natural approach of a talented singer, native of another country, with a collective of seasoned musicians already working the grounds of their home town. The passion for Blues and Old-school Rock’n’Roll was the sparkle that started all. After the success of the debut record “The Sun In The Tenth House” the band is paving the way to secure their place as one of the most promising acts on the Blues Rock scene.
"A Light In The Darkness" was recorded in January - February 2025, with sessions divided into three different studios, always looking for the best features in each one to fulfil the band’s vision. The band underwent a major line-up change, with the departure of guitarist Marco Reis and the recruitment of Ricardo Galrão to fill in the position. His distinctive style brought a new dimension to their sound, and it’s well showcased on the new recordings. "A Light In The Darkness" was produced by the band and mixed by bassist Ricardo Dikk, top-notch engineers were brought to precisely capture the full potential of the songs, and every track was recorded without the use of modern correction technology; no digital quantization, no Autotune, no extensive editing, just raw and high energy performances by the band members.
"A Light In The Darkness", is definitely a leap forward on The Bateleurs sound and aesthetics. Dive deep into this pool of sonic exploration, swamp mud filled riffs, high soaring laments of human experience, thunderous drums from the bottom of the soul, and celebrate the ever-changing, but everlasting ritual of the Blues and Rock’n’Roll…
Special guests were added to further develop the arrangements: Tiago Maia played slide guitar, Nuno Louro on Hammond Organ, João Colaço on the drums for two songs, and Ruben Monteiro (Irish Whistle) and Niklos Pavliidis (Violin) on a special bonus track available on CD only.

The eleventh full-length studio album by legendary British Pop-Rock/Beat band.
The band's last recorded album, although "Let It Be" was the last album, released before the band's dissolution in 1970.
"Abbey Road" is widely regarded as one of The Beatles' most tightly constructed albums, although the band was barely operating as a functioning unit at the time.
Despite the tensions within the band, "Abbey Road" was released to near universal acclaim and is considered to be one of the greatest albums of all time. In 2012, it was voted 14th on Rolling Stone Magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". In 2009, readers of the magazine also named “Abbey Road” the greatest of The Beatles' album.
"Her Majesty" is the last track of Side 2, but not listed on the sleeve or label.

The sixth full-length studio album by legendary British Pop-Rock/Beat band.
"Rubber Soul" was successful commercially and critically, and is often cited as one of the greatest albums in music history. The album was described as a major artistic achievement, attaining widespread critical and commercial success, with reviewers taking note of The Beatles' developing musical vision.
In 2012, "Rubber Soul" was voted 5th on Rolling Stone Magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".
The cover is printed on the back of a map of the Soviet Submarine Navy. Regardless whether the management of the printing plant in 1991 wanted to set a sign, the plant ran out of plain paper or simply for financial reasons, this is a contemporary witness of the collapse of the USSR. A unique artwork which differs this release from the one on plain paper!

The first proper studio recording session made under the name “The Beatles”, by legendary British Pop Rock/Beat band.
After Brian Epstein, former The Beatles manager, had meetings with both EMI and Decca at the start of December 1961, Decca A&R executive Mike Smith travelled to Liverpool to see The Beatles perform at The Cavern Club, and was impressed enough to ask Epstein to bring the band down to London for a test in Decca’s recording studios.
"The Decca Tapes" (also known as "The Decca Sessions", "The Decca Audition", "Silver Beatles" and under a lot of other different monikers) have been recorded  on January 1, 1962 at Decca Studios in West Hampstead, North London, when The Beatles auditioned for Decca Records. At the time, the standard procedure for a test of this type was to record between two and five songs and then quickly usher the artists out of the studio. However, Brian Epstein chose the repertoire of songs which contained 12 cover songs and 3 originals. The Beatles ended up recording fifteen songs, and the recording session was extended into the afternoon, broken by a lunch break. This could suggest that, if offered a deal, their first single and perhaps others would have been taken from the resulting tape. However, Dick Rowe, former CEO of Decca Records, wasn’t impressed by the quality and the song choices. About a month later, Decca famously rejected the Beatles, signed Brian Poole & The Tremeloes from London instead. The executives felt that “guitar groups are on the way out” and “The Beatles have no future in show business”.
The 1979 release of "Decca Tapes" seems to have come from a tape gifted to a third party in the 1960s by Brian Epstein. The Beatles have owned the tape since the 1980s and took legal action confirming that they owned the copyright in 1989. These recordings and the releases that contain them are thus unofficial under current copyright law.
This album comprises all fifteen songs performed by the band at the audition. These fabled tracks are presented here so fans can judge for themselves. This is a must for all Beatles enthusiasts!

The second full-length studio album by legendary British Pop Rock/Beat band.
The album was released in the United Kingdom on 22 November 1963 on Parlophone, eight months after the band's debut "Please Please Me".
Produced by George Martin, it features eight original compositions (seven by Lennon–McCartney and "Don't Bother Me", George Harrison's first recorded solo composition and his first released on a Beatles album) and six covers (mostly of Rock and Roll and Motown R&B hits).
The sessions also yielded the non-album single, "I Want to Hold Your Hand" backed by "This Boy".
The cover photograph was taken by the fashion photographer Robert Freeman and has since been mimicked by several music groups. A different cover was used for the Australian release of the album, which the Beatles were displeased with.
In the United States, the album's tracks were unevenly split over the band's first two albums released on Capitol Records, "Meet The Beatles!" and "The Beatles' Second Album". It was also released in Canada under the name "Beatlemania! With the Beatles".
The album was ranked number 420 on Rolling Stone Magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" in 2003, and was included in Robert Dimery's "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die" (2010). It was also voted number 275 in the third edition of English writer Colin Larkin's "All Time Top 1000 Albums" (2000). It was rated the 29th greatest album in the book Paul Gambaccini "Presents the Top 100 Albums", which canvassed a panel of experts in seven countries" to determine the greatest albums.
This stereo remastered album has been prepared using the 2009 digital remasters, which had been created from the original stereo analogue master tapes. Heavyweight 180g vinyl.

Re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary American Psychedelic Rock band.
Many of the songs on "Strange Days" had been written around the same time as the ones that appeared on "The Doors" (1967), and with hindsight one has the sense that the best of the batch had already been cherry-picked for the debut album. For that reason, the band's second effort isn't as consistently stunning as their debut, though overall it's a very successful continuation of the themes of their classic album. Besides the hit "Strange Days", highlights included the funky "Moonlight Drive", the eerie "You're Lost Little Girl", and the jerkily rhythmic "Love Me Two Times", which gave the band a small chart single. "My Eyes Have Seen You" and "I Can't See Your Face in My Mind" are minor but pleasing entries in the band's repertoire that share a subdued Eastern Psychedelic air. The 11-minute "When the Music's Over" would often be featured as a live showstopper, yet it also illustrated their tendency to occasionally slip into drawn-out bombast.
The album was a commercial success, reaching number 3 on the US Billboard 200 during a sixty-three-week chart stay in November 1967, and eventually earning RIAA Platinum certification. The album contains the Top 30 hit singles "People Are Strange" and "Love Me Two Times". In 2003, "Strange Days" was listed at No. 407 on Rolling Stone's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". In 2007, Rolling Stone included it on their list "The 40 Essential Albums of 1967".

Re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary American Psychedelic Rock band.
A tremendous debut album and indeed one of the best first-time outings in Rock history, introducing the band's fusion of Rock, Blues, Classical, Jazz, and poetry with a knockout punch.
Recorded in 1966 at Sunset Sound Recorders, Hollywood, California, it was produced by Paul A. Rothchild and released on January 4, 1967. The album features their breakthrough single "Light My Fire" and the lengthy song "The End" with its Oedipal spoken word section.
The Doors was central to the progression of Psychedelic Rock, and has been critically acclaimed. 
The original album has sold 20,000,000 copies, and has been inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Song "Light My Fire" was also inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. It has since been frequently ranked by critics as one of the greatest albums of all time; according to Acclaimed Music, it is the 27th most ranked record on all-time lists.
In 2000, “The Doors” was voted number 46 in Colin Larkin's "All Time Top 1000 Albums". It’s also ranked No. 75 on Q Magazine's "100 Greatest Albums Ever" and No. 226 in NME Magazine's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".
In 2007, Rolling Stone put “The Doors” on their list of the 40 essential albums of 1967. In 2012, the album was ranked No. 42 in Rolling Stone Magazine's list of "500 Greatest Albums of all Time". In 2015, the Library of Congress selected "The Doors" for inclusion in the National Recording Registry based on its cultural, artistic or historical significance.

50th Anniversary Edition remastered re-release of the fourth full-length studio album by legendary American Psychedelic/Blues Rock band.
By mid-1968, The Doors had established themselves as one of the most popular bands in the US. The band's third studio album, "Waiting For The Sun", released in July of the same year, became The Doors' only number one hit on the Billboard 200 while also spawning "Hello, I Love You", their second number one Single. The album was the first commercial breakthrough for the band in the UK, reaching number 16 on the UK Albums Chart. After the release of "Waiting For The Sun", The Doors commanded substantial performance fees and played before large crowds in arenas such as the L.A. Forum, the Hollywood Bowl, and Madison Square Garden.
Most of the next album was recorded following a gruelling tour, during which the band was left with little time to compose new material. Record producer Paul A. Rothchild recommended a total departure from the Doors' first three albums: develop a fuller sound by incorporating brass and string arrangements provided by Paul Harris. Lead singer Jim Morrison, who was dealing with personal issues and focusing more on his poetry, was less involved in the songwriting process, allowing guitarist Robby Krieger to increase his own creative output. Upon release, "The Soft Parade" was denounced by both music critics and the band's Underground music scene followers, who viewed the album as The Doors' trending into Pop music. Over time, historians have reassessed the album and its critical standing has slightly improved, but it is still widely considered to be the group's weakest effort with Morrison.
Three preceding Singles, "Touch Me", "Wishful Sinful", and "Tell All the People", were included on "The Soft Parade", with the former becoming another Top 10 hit for The Doors. Another single, "Runnin' Blue", also followed the album's release.
The album peaked at number six on the Billboard 200, but it failed to retain audiences in the UK and other European countries that their previous album, "Waiting For The Sun", had succeeded in engaging.
