The debut studio album by German Folk/Gothic Metal band.
Formed around July - August 2005 by Stefan Hertrich (Shiva in Exile, ex- Darkseed, ex- Sculpture, ex-Death Of Eden), the project was a sort of unofficial follow up to 1999's Betray My Secrets band, which featured Stefan Hertrich, Christian Bystron and Harald Winkler. Spi Ritual features almost nothing but guest musicians playing different instruments, with the only core member being Stefan Hertrich. Maurizio Guolo (Darkseed, Pergamon, Absorbed in Thought) played drums on the album.
Mixing Ethnic and Middle Eastern elements with loud, blasting Metal, vicious vocals, awe-inspiring guitar work, an abundance of ambiance and a roster of guest musicians that could practically take up an entire page of the booklet, Spi Ritual's "Pulse" leaves few areas untouched.
Enhanced CD includes a multimedia section with a video clip "Pulse" + multimedia track with footage, additional music, and texts by Stefan Hertrich and D. Ph. Christian Rätsch. A pressing error caused the digipak to open improperly.
Each CD autographed by Stefan Hertrich and comes with a Spi-Ritual sticker.

The debut full-length studio album by Princess Stéphanie Marie Elisabeth of Monaco.
The album was released in September 1986, incorporating Dance-Pop, Synth-Pop, Dance and Pop music.  In some countries, it was released as "Live Your Life", or simply "Stephanie". All versions include the same 9 core tracks, but track sequence varies and different combinations of French/English versions are included. CD's also include remixes. Later CD re-releases were retitled ("L'Album D'Or", "Rendez-Vous", "Irresistible", "Ouragan", "Dance With Me") but include the same tracks as the original 1986 CD's.
"Besoin" reached number six at the French Albums Chart and the Swedish Albums Chart, number twelve at the German Albums Chart, and number 59 at the Austrian Albums Chart. It reportedly sold in approximately 1.5 million units, and achieved Gold status in France for over 100 000 units.
Despite the success of "Besoin", Stéphanie did not make a follow-up for five years until the release of the second album, "Stephanie", in 1991.

"Stumblin' In" was the biggest US single hit, which reached number 4 in both, The Billboard Hot 100 and the Billboard Adult Contemporary charts. It also had an advertising billboard on Sunset Boulevard.

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.
