Bj Cole - Daydream Smile - VINYL LP

About this product
BJ Cole is back with first original music in years... and it is HAWAII'AN! Featuring guitarist Dave Eastoe and special guests this one is special. Award winning multi-instrumentalist B.J. Cole began his career gigging with Irish Country bands on the US Airforce bases around the UK in the '60's. He went on to be a founder member of the psychedelic Country Rock band COCHISE, who recorded three albums for United Artists and shared stages with Hawkwind and a demo studio with Elton John. After working with EJ on 'Tiny Dancer', BJ became established on the British recording session scene and went on to record with most of the greats of popular music, including Steve Marriott, Scott Walker, Dave Gilmour, Dave Edmunds, Albert Lee, Gerry Rafferty, Sting, Bjork, Elton John, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, and on and on, and continues to do so to this day. BJ's recent records have been largely experimental, and designed to expand the musical remit for the Pedal Steel, boldly going ever more deeply into the territories of Jazz and Classical Music; and then... Where? Well, back to his roots of course. To his passion for the lyricism of Hank Marvin's guitar, Santo & Johnny's 'Sleepwalk' and the music of the Hawaiian Islands, the sounds that ignited his musical flame. The musical chemistry between BJ and Dave is what makes this record possible. Above all, 'Daydream Smile' is a statement by two friends who have a love for the music and culture of the Hawaiian Islands. It may not be particularly authentic, but it is passionate. It's about time that the music of Hawaii was properly recognized for the vital role it played in the development of Americana and in the history of American popular music.

Vinyl LP pressing. Wide-Eyed Nowhere is Turin Brakes' ninth full studio album, a set of new songs emerging 21 years after their seminal debut. It's no easy feat maintaining an optimistic attitude through the turbulence of the years, but the band found their own method down in deepest Tooting to produce this lean, bittersweet collection.
The Smile - Radiohead's Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood and Sons of Kemet's Tom Skinner - return with their third album 'Cutouts'. The 10-track album was produced and mixed by Sam Petts-Davies [Frank Ocean 'Blond', Thom Yorke 'Suspiria'], mastered by Sterling Sound's Greg Calbi and features artwork by Stanley Donwood and Thom Yorke. Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, in Oxford and in moments on the road, the tracks feature strings by the London Contemporary Orchestra as well as contemporary UK jazz player Pete Wareham [flute].
![Konstanze Eickhorst - Italian Concerto - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/eacb47fc-a729-4a00-ad5a-8dbc750f3415.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
It is a universal music that is entirely at the service of a higher power Bach's music is worship. With this basic attitude, Konstanze Eickhorst dedicates her new GENUIN recording to a hand-picked selection of Bach's piano works. It shows a broad spectrum of Bach's music, from the positive, forceful F major of the Italian Concerto to the two partitas - the delicate one in B-flat major and the playful one in G major - to the D minor of the Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue. Konstanze Eickhorst's career also began with Bach she won a prize at the Toronto Bach Competition. Today, as a professor at the University of Music in Lübeck and as a juror at international competitions, she comes into contact with Bach's music again and again, which is full of joie de vivre, but also full of sorrow and sadness, though always paired with comfort and hope.
