Nothing But Thieves cover Gnarls Barkley & Jeff Buckley

After almost 3 years since their last release, The Script have returned with their brand new single "Rain." Now, the Irish three-piece announce more news - their fifth album, 'Freedom Child!' 'Freedom Child' sees the band presenting a collection of urgent, timely, future-facing anthems that speak of both real-life events and real-time sonic adventurism. The album was recorded between London and Los Angeles and for the first time, the band chose to work with an A List of co-writers and producers. The Script are one of the world's most successful bands and have sold over 29 million records. The Irish three-piece have scored three multi-platinum albums, all of which were #1 in the UK. The Script have also picked up a huge following in Australia where they have had many multi-platinum singles and albums. 'Hall Of Fame' (2012) went seven times platinum while 'Breakeven' (2008) is certified three times platinum. Australia was the most successful market in the world in sales for the bands lead single 'Superheroes'(2015) where the track achieved 2x Platinum sales results, followed by Gold sales in Italy & Silver in the UK. The Script are also one of the biggest live bands, having sold over 1.4 million tickets across 203 headline shows. The Script's last tour to Australia in 2015 raised the bar selling out areas nationwide.

The Concert in Central Park is the first live album by American folk rock duo Simon & Garfunkel, released in February 1982. It was recorded in September 1981 at a free benefit concert in Central Park, New York City, where the pair performed in front of more than 500,000 people. This concert and album marked the start of a short-lived reunion for Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. Besides hit songs from their years as a duo, their set-list included material from their solo and duo careers, and covers. Among the songs performed were the classics "The Sound of Silence", "Mrs. Robinson", and "The Boxer"; the event concluded with a reprise of Simon's song, "Late in the Evening”, many newly arranged with an expanded 11-piece band

'Born To Touch Your Feelings – Best Of Rock Ballads' is a new compilation of the bands greatest ballads including 3 new songs, a compilation spanning the bands 50 year career. As the band were compiling the songs for their latest album, the Scoprions were reminded of the timelessness of their ballads. It is not for nothing that they named the compilation after a song from 1977, "Born To Touch Your Feelings." The Scorpions have now put their most beautiful and most legendary ballads together and have topped it off with three recent ballad-like songs. Its title: "Born To Touch Your Feelings." Which, as it happens, is the credo of Klaus Meine, Rudolf Schenker, Matthias Jabs, Pawel Maciwoda, and Mikkey Dee as well as a song from the band’s beginnings. As Klaus Meine puts it, "The meaning of a ballad always goes deep. It’s not surprising that a song like 'Wind of Change' is received euphorically in the US these days. The fans don't connect the song to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the iron curtain but rather to their current situation, the desire for change, and the hope for a world without nuclear threats and civil wars as well as the longing for peace."

An entirely acoustic set from the Hanover hard rock legends, 'Acoustica' was recorded in a Portuguese monastery in 2001 in front of the band's most loyal fans. The set includes favorites such as "Winds Of Change," "Send Me An Angel" and "You And I." Available for the first time on vinyl, this was previously available on CD / DVD. The new vinyl edition includes 6 bonus tracks, unavailable on previous physical editions, and is presented on black 2LP 180gm

Released in 1988, Tougher Than Leather was the culmination of the Rap/Rock road that Run-DMC travelled in since their earlier albums King Of Rock and Raising Hell. Its superb production, booming 808 beats combined with guitar samples, catchy choruses and smart rhymes made Tougher Than Leather undoubtedly the best Hip Hop record that came out in 1988. Great tracks include "Mary, Mary", "Run's House" and "I'm Not Going Out Like That". Its equal appeal to Hip Hop as well as Rock fans made the album a million seller, and underlined Run-DMC's stature as living Hip Hop legends all over the world.

Nas' 'I Am...' was his third studio album release and proved his reputation of one hip-hop's leading rappers. His strong lyrics are heard on tracks like "Small World" and "Favor for a Favor" featuring Scarface of the Ghetto Boys. The original material of the album was leaked onto the internet and this forced him to record completely new material. In the US, Nas had chart success with tracks "Nas Is Like", "Hate Me Now“, and "You Won't See Me Tonight" featuring Aaliyah. The production on this album is solid and stands up, even to this day.

Coney Island Baby is a 1976 solo studio album by Lou Reed, first released in January 1976. The album has been described by Anthony DeCurtis as "perhaps the most romantic album of Reed’s career." Many of the album's songs were inspired by and dedicated to Reed's girlfriend and muse at the time. Coney Island Baby was "as much a love letter to Rachel as it was to the nostalgic Coney Island of the mind." The album's title track directly references Rachel with the line: "I'd like to send this one out to Lou and Rachel, and all the kids at P.S. 192." The album includes the song "She's My Best Friend," a version of which was originally recorded by Reed's band the Velvet Underground in 1969.

Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter John Mayer releases his highly anticipated forthcoming album 'The Search For Everything!' The album, which Mayer began recording in 2014 at the famed Capitol Studios in the Capitol Records building in Hollywood, will be released through Columbia Records and Sony Music Entertainment Australia. The first digital only instalment, entitled 'Wave One EP,' released in January 2017 went to #1 on iTunes in Australia upon release. 'Wave One' featured the single "Love on the Weekend." This is John's 9th studio album, following 'Paradise Valley' in 2013 which went to #1 on the ARIA albums chart.

Supercar lover and showman Jay Kay started Jamiroquai in Manchester during the early nineties, seeing their debut 'Emergency On Planet Earth' receive massive amounts of critical and public acclaim. Backed by an incredibly tight band, Jamiroquai delivered a Stevie Wonder-esque brand of highly infectious and addictive Funk with a capital F. So infectious in fact, it became a Pop staple almost overnight. Having amassed a huge fanbase in the UK, the popularity of this horde of planet savers spread worldwide over their subsequent two albums.

'Travelling Without Moving' [1996] intentionally offers more of what Jamiroquai does best: highly addictive funky grooves with a social consciousness that is matched by front man Jay Kay's charisma. The third effort of Jamiroquai was carried by an inventive video for "Virtual Insanity"; the album's flagship song. Pressed on two heavy weight champions packed in a gatefold sleeve, 'Travelling Without Moving' is finally available on vinyl again, this time with remastered audio for maximum aural pleasure!

180gm Vinyl Reissue! 

Another great personal Dylan album, 'Desire' (1976) captures Dylan at the beginning of his Rolling Thunder Revue era. Folk, Rock, Middle Eastern themes and epic narratives, the album is a Pop staple throughout. A wild collection of styles result in an album that ranks in the top of all Dylan efforts. It rambles, rocks and thunders – the sheer energy is just infectious. Its best known track and album opener "Hurricane", is quickly followed by the hypnotic "Isis" and breezy "Mozambique".

RÜFÜS DU SOL – one of Australia’s and the world’s most preeminent live electronic bands - will release SOLACE on vinyl on December 14^th, the band's 3rd and most mature and thought-provoking album to date

RÜFÜS DU SOL has spent the past year in Venice, CA, writing and recording their third album, which is largely influenced by the dichotomy of the stark desert landscapes and beautiful coastline of California. It’s a fuller exploration of RÜFÜS DU SOL’s ever evolving musical spectrum, a deeper dive and a more intimate glimpse into both melancholy and transcendence.

Formerly known as RÜFÜS, the three-piece comprised of members Tyrone Lindqvist, Jon George and James Hunt, occupy the intersection of propulsive indie music and emotive house. They have managed to combine the DIY live aesthetics of rock with the euphoria of classic club culture, creating a sonic realm all their own.

In Australia, the band’s debut album ATLAS reached #1 on the ARIA Album Chart and reaped Platinum status – such success was repeated in 2016 with their follow-up record BLOOM, which saw the album claim top spot on the ARIA Album Chart and achieve Platinum certification. In Australia alone, the band’s catalogue has been streamed over 110 Million times – an incredible nod to RÜFÜS DU SOL’s unparalleled electronic talent and inimitable sound. BLOOM offered RÜFÜS DU SOL’s most iconic singles, ‘You Were Right’ and ‘Innerbloom’ and launched RÜFÜS DU SOL on a two-year international tour, playing over 100 sold-out shows across 13 countries, making them one of Australia’s most successful live-music exports globally. The band’s 2016 Australian tour, featured 2 sold out shows at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion, and an epic set at Listen Out Festival where the band headlined.

Lauryn Hill is best known for being a member of The Fugees and for her critically acclaimed solo album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, which won numerous awards, broke several sales records and was listed by Rolling Stone as one of the greatest albums of all time.

The acoustic MTV Unplugged No. 2.0 double album from Lauryn Hill came nearly 4 years after the first solo album and gives an insight in her deeper thoughts and emotions about her life, artist, the judicial system (in "Mystery Of Iniquity") and spiritual side. Lengthy intros, conversations and deeply personal songs like "Conquering Lion" accompanied with her acoustic guitar, with the audience add to the intimate performance in her typical raspy voice.

To record their seventh studio album (not counting soundtracks and greatest hits compilations), Dave Stewart and Annie Lennox worked on a few songs in London and then checked into the old Mayflower Hotel in New York. “I’d bought a 12-track recorder and had it sent to a suite, where Columbian bass player Chucho Merchan was residing. “We wrote and recorded most of the songs for We Too Are One in the hotel, with Chucho operating the 12 track.”

They then brought Jimmy Iovine to Paris to co - produce. The rest of the album was completed in the back garden of Stewart’s home in Encino, California, where Annie recorded most of her vocals and harmonies. “We Too Are One” also has a Grammy nominated long form video, which follows Dave and Annie around the world as they perform songs from this album, along with their classic hits such as “We Too Are One” and “Revival” which opened their set with a flavour of 70’s Stevie Wonder classic funk, in contrast to classic ballads such as “Angel,” “The Miracle of Love” and “When the Day Goes Down.

Recorded in 2003 before Funeral, the Arcade Fire EP is often overlooked in favour of the exceptional music that followed it. But this collection of seven early tracks introduced fans to key Arcade Fire themes and styles and as such is an important (and relatively rare) part of their discography. The tracklist includes an early version of Neon Bible highlight ‘No Cars Go’ as well as ‘Headlights Look Like Diamonds’ which they revived during the Reflektor tour.

Elvis Presley re-established himself as The King of Rock and Roll with Elvis, the widely-seen “comeback special” broadcast on NBC at the end of 1968.

Fontana, both part of Elvis’ original, classic backing band. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Elvis, both electrifying, intimate “sit-down” sets will be released widely on vinyl for the first time in a 2LP package with a newly created gatefold sleeve.
