Artist/Title: Vince Gill & Paul Franklin//Bakersfield Bar Code:

Cat. #: B001865502 Price Code: SP

Order Due: July 11, 2013 Release Date: July 30, 2013 02537 43216 6 5 File: COUNTRY Genre Code: 16 Box Lot: 25

Key Tracks:

Not actual artwork

Key Points:

20 time Grammy Award‐winning artist Vince Gill and famed steel guitarist, Paul Franklin have fashioned the album Bakersfield, a perfectly matched set of five Owens and five Haggard classics that pulsate with all the emotional fervor of the originals.

Owens is represented by “Foolin’ Around,” “He Don’t Deserve You Anymore,” “Nobody’s Fool But Yours,” “But I Do” and “Together Again,” while Haggard surfaces via “Holding Things Together,” “The Fightin’ Side Of Me,” “I Can’t Be Myself,” “Branded Man” and “The Bottle Let Me Down.” All these songs were originally released between 1961 and 1974.

From the outset, Gill and Franklin agreed they wouldn’t record sound‐alike versions. “The album is very much borrowed from and inspired by the originals,” Gill says, “but it’s done in our own way—the way we chose to play and sing it. There was no point in doing a note‐for‐note.”

The To Do List film:

Loosely inspired by the real-life adventures of first-time writer/director Maggie Carey, “The To Do List” features an all-star comedy cast including Parks And Recreation’s Aubrey Plaza, Johnny Simmons, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Sarah Steele, Rachel Bilson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Donald Glover, Scott Porter, Andy Samberg, Connie Britton and Clark Gregg. Set in 1993, valedictorian Brandy Klark wants to shed her uptight image before college, so she assembles a to do list of all the “activities” she missed out on in high school. Quickly realizing that she's way out of her depth, Brandy solicits her best friends, older sister and burnt-out boss for their help and advice. If the group is going to complete the list by September they'll need plenty of imagination and very open minds.

Phinehas was formed in 2001 with a simple purpose: to be a band of Christians that brings the hope of Jesus to the hopeless and rejected. Though the line‐up has changed over the years, the root of the band has only grown. From their first 10‐day tour in 2010 to their 121 shows in 2012, Phinehas has been sharing their story and building relationships across the US. They want the people they meet on the road to walk away feeling loved for who they are no matter where they may be in life. Musically, when Phinehas' debut full‐length "thegodmachine" was released in 2011, they caught the ears of critics and metalheads across the globe. From the shreddy riffs and the sassy solos to the versatile vocals and the pounding drums, "thegodmachine" brought a freshness to a scene that was suffering from the over‐saturation the digital age has wrought. The mustaches they donned in one of their promotional photos even inspired a fan to coin Phinehas' music as "mustache metal". They released three music videos from their debut that have accumulated over 1.2 million views combined. Their January 2013 EP "The Bridge Between", featuring both full‐band songs and stripped‐ down acoustic arrangements, showcased the diversity of their musical interests and abilities. Since becoming a fulltime national act in the summer of 2011, Phinehas has been touring extensively around the country in support of these two releases with bands such as Write This Down, To Speak Of Wolves, Famous Last Words, Righteous Vendetta, Spoken, The Paramedic, Design The Skyline, Challenger, It Lies Within, A Past Unknown, and more. Now, 2 years following their debut on Red Cord Records, Phinehas is ready to push themselves even further with their sophomore effort "The Last Word Is Yours To Speak". Under the pressure of having to follow up their critically‐ acclaimed debut, Phinehas delivered in a big way. Their new album ups the ante of metal in every aspect. It's faster, it's heavier, its production value is top‐notch, and it will be stuck in your head from the first listen. With this new record and their relentlessly energetic live performances, Phinehas is ready to carve their niche in the for good.

‘An honour and a joy to behold’ – The Guardian

‘Rarely in any orchestra do you hear tone quite so gorgeous and ensemble so unified, each individual’s artistry flowering to the full within the whole.’ The Independent

 Following on from last year’s momentous Beethoven For All project on Decca, this new DVD box set contains all nine Beethoven symphonies, filmed at the 2012 Proms, where the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra under conductor Daniel Barenboim took residence for a week.  The box set also features the BBC documentary ‘Barenboim on Beethoven: Nine Symphonies that changed the world’ by Michael Waldman and Peter Dale. The film gains a unique insight into the nine symphonies, as well as the musicians’ views on the difficulties and delights of performing these inimitable works.  Captured within the documentary, Daniel Barenboim and his West-Eastern Divan Orchestra take the complete cycle of Beethoven symphonies on tour to China and South Korea, to explore why these works are so often regarded as one of the greatest achievements of Western culture.  Their tour culminates in a performance of the 9th Symphony, next to the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea. Barenboim and members of the orchestra reveal what it is about this music that is so striking today and what made Beethoven’s music so revolutionary at the time it was written,

Key Points:

Poverty stricken students of 1968 rolled their own – not for them the cigarette temptations of a pack of 10 cigarettes, no, their tobacco thrills came hand rolled, usually in Rizla papers which kindly reminded the participant that they were about to run out, with a yellow interleaf paper with bold red type stating ONLY FIVE LEAVES LEFT.

Nick Drake’s bucolic autumnal shades in his debut album of a similar name, heralded a new signing for Island Records: not traditional enough to be folk, not weird enough to be psychedelic, Drake avoided the pitfalls of what was expected and collaborated with producer Joe Boyd, orchestrator Robert Kirby and recording engineer John Wood to make a singular and almost unique record released to a largely indifferent media.

A few leaves fell in the right place and Nick’s reputation grew, despite his early death at 24 in 1976, escalating into the world‐wide fame he enjoys today. Released initially only on vinyl and cassette, these formats became redundant with the dawning of CD and downloads ‐ leaving a gaping hole that was filled by high collectors prices for original pressings and the inevitable poor quality bootlegs.

USM and Island Records now complete the ReDISCovered vinyl set on Nick Drake with this boxed faithful replica of his debut album. As before, it was remastered from the original quarter inch master tapes by John Wood at Abbey Road Studios and pressed using wholly analogue processes onto 180 gsm virgin vinyl. The sleeve is an exact replica of the first edition of the album and is coupled with a period shop poster, lyrics to two of Nick’s songs and options to download the tracks in MP3, Hi‐ Res FLAC files or the new DFD (dubbed‐from‐disc) files for that authentic listening experience.
