The Fly

Limited To 2000 Copies

David Cronenberg's 1986 sci-fi thriller was transformative for the film's lead character, the career of its star, Jeff Goldblum, and the makeup effects industry which awarded the film an Academy Award. Composer, Howard Shore, scored nearly all Cronenberg's films, and most recently is known for his work on the Lord of the Rings movies.

Fly, Dixie Chicks' successor to their major label debut, continued the group's winning streak taking home the Best Country Album Grammy and the single, Ready to Run winning in the Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal category. The album topped the pop and country charts, sold more than 10 million copies and earned Dixie Chicks a rare back-to-back Diamond certification from the Recording Industry Association of America.

Six months of recording has led to The Flying Club Cup, an homage to France's culture, fashion, history, and music. Two years ago, Zach Condon immersed himself in Balkan folk, absorbed sounds, scales, styles, and the sonic joys of a skeletally structured, cacophonic ensembleoand moved west. Soaking up the likes of Francois Hardy, Charles Aznavour, and, most notably, Jacques Brel (a huge influence on both Scott Walker and Mark E. Smith), Condon has been articulating his conversational French.

Most of the album was created at a nondescript Albuquerque office space, a.k.a. A Hawk and a Hacksaw's practice room; Heather Trost plays violin and viola on three songs. Engineering and production assistance came from Griffin Rodriguez (A Hawk and a Hacksaw, Man Man). He helped separate the many instrumentalists involved in recording, as opposed to Gulag's largely solo flight.The orkestar, which has solidified into a core group of eight members, has grand plans for replicating the album live, and is now an integral part of Beirut's identity. Additional recording was done with Owen Pallet (Final Fantasy) at the Masonic church studio owned by The Arcade Fire.

Within the spectacle and intimacy of The Flying Club Cup, you can hear a love letter to the joie de vivre that defines our existence. Listen closer, and you also hear the emergence of a singular musical talent of Mr. Zachary F. Condon, at present living in Paris-- unbounded by cultural borders and by where his heart travels.

A September-October '07 tour of nice theaters in large U.S. cities is in the planning stages, as are more dates in 2008.

The band's songs and wildly cathartic live shows have often drawn comparisons to Karen-O, Patti Smith, Bikini Kill and many other female-fronted rock
groups, but there's a theatricality to Le Butcherettes that brings a further reaching sense of mystery and imagery to the band.

Originally forming as a duo, Le Butcherettes began in 2007 as the brainchild of vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist Teri Gender Bender; a modern feminist who
cites Sylvia Plath and Malcolm X as major influences. Born to a Mexican stage actress mother and a father who was a fervent lover of the arts, Teri was
constantly surrounded by creative energy. Following the death of her father, Teri Gender Bender moved back to Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico to begin a
new and eventful chapter in her life, and with that the first page of Le Butcherettes was written.

In 1974, Traffic (Stevie Winwood, Jim Capaldi & Chris Wood)continued their winning streak with their final seventies studio classic When The Eagle Flies. Whether standout tracks like the rocking opener Something New or the jam infused classic Dream Gerrard, this brilliant LP will most certainly be known forever for its classic hit track Walking In The Wind. Filled with explosive sax, percussive drums & the piano/guitar/vocals of Stevie Winwood, When The Eagle Flies was destined to become a commercial success for the legendary Traffic.

First, you get the Bar Band from Hell of "Midsummer New York" to kick things off. It's about the last thing you'd expect from Ono coming off Plastic Ono Band. But here you are, listening to Ono channeling Elvis. Why am I all of a sudden bopping along to it? At 16-minute-plus, the tranced-out,motorik-inspired boogie "Mind Train" is rough-and-ready for your next basement get down.Movement and perspiration required. Then, we have the absolutely gutting blues of "Don't Worry,Kyoko (Mummy's Only Looking For Her Hand in The Snow)." Full of ache and raw emotion, the song is a love note, a plea for forgiveness, to her estranged daughter Kyoko shot across the universe on a flaming arrow. Ono follows this stampede of emotion with the self-referential torch song "Mrs.Lennon," a wounded song that gets right into the Universal Loneliness. And so here you are. You're devastated. You're exhausted. You're exhilarated. And you're only 1/4 of the way up the mountain that is Fly. Dig deep, traveler, it's worth the climb.

Fly Like An Eagle is the ninth studio album by American rock group Steve Miller Band. The album was originally released in May, 1976 by Capitol Records.

In 2012, Kweller re-emerges with the album, Go Fly A Kite, a triumphant debut for his Austin-based label, The Noise Company. From the first crashing symbol of the dynamic Mean To Me, to the closing upbeat declaration of You Can Count On Me, Go Fly A Kite encompasses all the many facets and talents of this illustrious artist. The songwriting on tracks like Free and Full Circle is relevant and reflective with the ability to both provoke profound thought while simultaneously becoming lost in his authentic delivery and pop driven melodies.

Indicative of the journey the artist has taken, Go Fly A Kite displays a Ben Kweller that has truly come full circle, while representing every milestone along the way. Immersed in rich harmonies, lush arrangements, and bittersweet lyrics, Go Fly A Kite is a celebratory offering of the essential Ben Kweller and serves as a career-defining album with the ability to resonate beyond its time. 180g vinyl packaging features deluxe diorama packaging in which the fans build their own Kweller-universe and a bonus CD.

The album was recorded and produced solely by Timbaland in October 1996, and features the singles, The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly), Sock It 2 Me, Hit Em wit da Hee, and Beep Me 911. Guest appearances on the album include Busta Rhymes, Ginuwine, Nicole, Keith Sweat, Magoo, Queen Latifah, Da Brat, 702, Lil' Kim, K-Ci & JoJo, and Aaliyah.

The album debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 and topped the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. It sold 1.2 million copies in the United States, where it was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.

Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin returned to the attic where they made their debut full-length Broom. Phil Dickey, Will Knauer, and Jonathan James spent up to twelve hours a day working on the songs that would become Fly By Wire.

With James assuming the role of engineer, Dickey and Knauer wrote lyrics and guitar parts on a third floor windowsill and recorded vocals in the staircase. This laid-back approach to recording is clearly evident in the album's warm, welcoming sound.

Loud Planes Fly Low is beautifully born of the struggle to define their relationship as bandmates, and more importantly, friends outside of the context of marriage. It wasnt easy. Written and rewritten, recorded and re-recorded in fits and starts, Loud Planes Fly Low allowed Kelly and Ivan to have the very conversations about their relationship that theyd long avoided.

Despite the hard times now behind them, for The Rosebuds, the present is whats most remarkable: these ten tunes are not only some of The Rosebuds riskiest and most rewarding to date, but they also reveal a band eager to push their own limits, a couple of musicians who have come to cope with their complicated story for this blessed moment of restart. Proudly mature, genuinely reflective, Loud Planes Fly Low is the most honest Rosebuds record since Ivan and Kelly made their way out of the gates in 2003.

Arguably the best and most notorious of the blaxploitation films of the '70s, starring Ron O'Neal as a Harlem drug dealer out to make one last big score before he cleans up his act for good. You could say Curtis Mayfield's accompanying landmark 1972 soundtrack is the real star here though. Superfly is a gripping morality tale set to funky grooves and plaintive vocals, the absolute zenith of Mayfield's socially aware songwriting.
