DEACON BLUE “30 Years and Counting” DEACON BLUE “30 Years and counting” Formados en 1985 (su primer concierto, de teloneros de The Waterboys) y con su nombre cogido de una canción de Steely Dan, Deacon Blue se convirtieron en la segunda mitad de los 80 en una de las bandas escocesas más conocidas. Para ellos fue una época de hits y éxitos varios. En su disco de debut, "Raintown" (1987), donde estaba la canción "Dignity", uno de sus himnos internacionales más identificables, vendió más de un millón de copias y llegó al número 14 en las listas británicas, donde se mantuvo durante año y medio. Su segundo álbum, "When The World Knows Your Name" (1989) fue número 1 en el Reino Unido durante dos semanas y generó cinco sencillos que fueron al Top 30 de UK (y al Top 10 irlandés). Con el inicio de la década de los 90 no bajaron el ritmo. Su tercer LP, "Fellow Hoodlums" (1991), sumó a las buenas críticas su posición en el número 2 de los charts británicos, mientras que alcanzaron el # 4 con el más experimental "Whatever You Say, Say Nothing" (1993), donde ladearon sus melodías pop, hasta entonces inspiradas más por el soul y el jazz, hacia un territorio de rock más alternativo. Giras sold out y un recopilatorio de grandes éxitos en 1994, que llegó al número 1 en el Reino Unido y fue uno de los superventas de aquel ejercicio, completaron el ascenso a su cima. Pero justo entonces decidieron separarse. Reemprendieron el camino en 1999 (con nuevo disco, "Walking Back Home", seguido dos años más tarde por "Homesick"). Intermitentes apariciones en festivales a lo largo de esa década culminaron en 2012 con la gira de su 25º aniversario y un sexto álbum, "The Hipsters", producido por Paul Savage (King Creosote, Malcom Middleton, Mogwai), quien también estuvo a los mandos de "A New House" (2014), un título que les supuso regresar al Top 20 británico. Las buenas críticas recibidas en 2016 por "Believers" (2016), obra de estudio con mayor carga política que las precedentes, y el directo "Live At The Glasgow Barrowlands (grabado en la sala donde dieron su último concierto antes de su adiós en 1994) certifican la buena salud de su presente. En 2018 han puesto en marcha las giras "To Be Here Someday", una celebración de sus treinta años de carrera discográfica, y “30 Years and more”. www.houstonpartymusic.com #HoustonPartyMusic #houstonparty20.

Obviously, these items would be a good gift idea for any occasion year-round, as well as a gift for yourself! We do not include many, if any at all, single CDs in the guide. Most everything contained will be multiple CD sets, DVDs, CD/DVD sets, books and the like. Of course, you can always look though our back issues to see what came out in 2017 (and prior years), but none of us would want to attempt to decide which CDs would be a fitting ad- dition to this guide. As with 2016, the year 2017 was a bit on the lean side as far as reviews go of box sets, books and DVDs - it appears tht the days of mass quantities of boxed sets are over - but we do have some to check out. These are in no particular order in terms of importance or release dates.

  • La Muerte Y La Resurreción De La Portada De Discos
    Received : 2014_01_09 | Accepted: 2014_02_03 37 THE DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF THE ALBUM COVER MUERTE Y RESURRECCIÓN DE LAS PORTADAS DE DISCOS ISMAEL LÓPEZ MEDEL [email protected] Central Connecticut State University, United States Abstract: The recording industry is facing yet another pivotal moment of rede - finition. Imagery has been one of its key elements, whether through graphic design, album art design, posters, videos and applications for digital devices. Throughout the more than hundred years of existence, music and images have shared a common space, in an ever-changing and evolving relationship. The main goal of the paper is to present how album cover design has expanded its boundaries far beyond its initial rol in the music industry, to trespass now into the textile, decoration and popular culture industries. We also aim to prove the evolution of the álbum cover and its reinterpreattion as objects of popular culture. Therefore, the paper is divided in three acts. We begin explaining the origin, evolution and significance of the discographic design from the outset of the industry. In the following act, we explain the death of the album cover due to the crisis experienced by the industry in the nineties. The final act studies the surprising comeback of the format, yet in another context, possessed with a much more symbolic function. This resurrection is part of the vinyl revival, pushed by elite consumers who are now looking for something else in music, apart from the music itself. As a result, we will witness how record covers have migrated from their original function and are now part of the realm of popular culture.
