from our friends at SpaceLab9
SPACELAB9, in partnership with Madison Gate Records, is thrilled to announce the details of the release of “BREAKING BAD (Original Score From The Television Series),” a double LP that will hit the streets on April 29, 2014. Previously released as a limited double picture disc by SPACELAB9 this past November, the score album to the groundbreaking series BREAKING BAD will now be released as a deluxe double LP with a full-color gatefold jacket filled with images from the show as well as extensive liner notes from composer Dave Porter and show creator and executive producer Vince Gilligan. Rounding out the deluxe packaging are full-color inner sleeves, limited colored vinyl and a full-color 18 x 24 poster.
“I’m very pleased to have Volume One of my original score to Breaking Bad made available in a tangible way with this release on vinyl. Thanks to Madison Gate Records and SpaceLab9. I’m excited to share this release with fans of the show and record enthusiasts looking for a better listening experience than an mp3 could ever offer… a sound much closer to the version that came out of my studio” says composer Dave Porter.

During their six years together, the Pixies released five albums on 4AD- Come on Pilgrim(1987); Surfer Rosa(1988); Doolittle(1989); Bossanova(1990) and Trompe Le Monde(1991). Experiencing particular success in the UK and Europe, the Pixies played sold-out festivals and received a multitude of fan, peer and critical acclaim. The band's influence was far-reaching; U2's Bono referred to the Pixies as "one of America's greatest bands ever”; David Bowie called their work "just about the most compelling music of the entire 80s," and Kurt Cobain, who identified Surfer Rosa as his favorite album of that entire decade, confessed, when writing ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’, that, "Basically, I was ripping off The Pixies."
The new 23-track Wave Of Mutilation: Best Of Pixiesruns (almost) chronologically and expands on the previous compilation, Death To The Pixies. The recordings remain fresh and vibrant - a splendid introduction for old fans and new converts alike - inevitably there are half a dozen tracks from Doolittle, the record that NME proclaimed the "second best album ever", but there's also a couple of B-sides, the live favourite ‘Into The White’ and, to end the sonic assault on a poignant note, the band's cover of Neil oung's ‘Winterlong’.

'I've got a fever, and the only medicine is MORE COWBELL…' Decades before Christopher Walken and Will Ferrell's hilarious ode to "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" on Saturday Night Live, Agents Of Fortune already obtained classic Rock status. The hit song is just one of the wonderful tunes on Blue Öyster Cult's fifth album from 1976.
The band called in the help of Patti Smith on "The Revenge Of Vera Gemini", and delivered a high charting album (#29 on the Billboard 200 and "The Reaper" made it to the twelfth spot on the singles Charts). This record rocks 'n thunders, with a sensual boogie permeating these 10 great tracks.

After a sabbatical period, resting in a Buddhist monastery, Leonard Cohen was prompted to tour again as in his absence his former manager embezzled his savings. If one expected Cohen not to amaze crowds regardless of the reason he was on stage, or his absence from the stage for almost 15 years, one couldn't be more wrong.
Live In London (2009) contains some of the maestro's best work, 26 songs in all. Recorded at London's O2 Arena on July 17, 2008, Cohen mesmerized the 20.000 heads in the audience with big, yet subtle renditions of classics like "Who by Fire", "Suzanne", "The Future" and "Democracy". Cohen sounds genuinely moved by the affectionate reception he receives from his audience, and he seems determined to give them a show to match their loyalty, and with his band (who he frequently lauds during the performance) he truly gives all.

Back in 1977, the LP Point Of Know Return marked the commercial peak of Kansas. The Progressive Rock band had experienced tremendous success with their previous release (1976's Leftoverture) and were no longer starving for a hit, yet the sessions for their fifth album were tense. Steve Walsh briefly left the group in the middle of these sessions. Nevertheless, the LP turned out an even bigger success for the band than its predecessor. It would be their highest charting record and with four million copies sold, it was certified Quadruple Platinum by the RIAA.
The tour to support the album brought them to huge venues such as New York's Madison Square Garden and the LA Forum, with the tour book including an essay written by Rolling Stone contributor Cameron Crowe. The band became a staple on FM radio at this point, and during this period was one of the most popular rock acts in the country. "Dust In The Wind" became the hit single off of the album.

For Cardiff Rose (1976), the former leader and 12-string jangle-meister of the Byrds collaborated with Mick Ronson, guitarist for David Bowie's Spiders From Mars. The two toured as part of Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue, after which Ronson went into the studio with McGuinn to produce his next solo album.
This is easily one of McGuinn's finest solo efforts; recorded with fellow Rolling Thunder veterans Rob Stoner, Howie Wyeth and David Mansfield, the band sounds tight and enthusiastic from front to back. McGuinn wrote a handful of strong originals, including "Partners in Crime", the charging rockers "Rock and Roll Time" and "Take Me Away," and the beautifully atmospheric "Jolly Roger," while he was also lucky enough to receive fine contributions from Bob Dylan ("Up to Me") and Joni Mitchell ("Dreamland").

Originally released in 1997 during the heyday of the alternative UK Electro scene, Finley Quaye's debut Maverick A Strike struck a chord with many. Fusing Dub, Reggae, Pop, Triphop and Indie, his amalgam of styles resonated throughout the music world like no other record at the time. Tricky's Maxinquaye came close. Perhaps it's no coincidence that these two artists are family – they sure put their stamp on the sound of the Nineties!
Original vinyl issues were in short supply at the time of release, making this Music On Vinyl issue a very welcome one for the fans.

In 1970 Steppenwolf released their Live LP, consisting mostly of songs played live on the tour to support their preceding album Monster. Apart from songs off that album, the live record of course also features the group's best known hit "Born To Be Wild" (the biker anthem known from the 1969 Easy Rider movie). Other big hits on the double album are "The Pusher" and "Magic Carpet Ride".
Formed in 1967 in Los Angeles, the band's music could be described as 'Heavy Metal R & B', while their name was inspired by Hermann Hesse's novel of the same name. Led by German immigrant John Kay, these psychedelic Blues rockers will without a doubt be remembered forever for one of the best rock anthems of all time.
