Cem Duruoz - Contemporary Music for Guitar - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Legendary British bluesrock guitar statesman, Robin Trower approaches his finest hour with 'time and emotion' his latest tune set. Trower's evocative note bends and signature tone along with his powerful lead vocals totally bring it. There are plenty of tightly knitted bass lines and drum grooves supporting RT's gut lifting sound to titillate the listener's ear. It is an unadulterated combustion of rock, blues and soul, lots of what Strat-fans crave from this unique artist. Track highlights include 'the land of plenty', 'i'm gone', 'bitten by the snake if you believe in me', 'you're the one' and the title track 'time and emotion' but there are no weak tracks on this CD all there is is lots of classic Robin Trower!

Originally released in 2012, Light Up Gold is being made available via Rough Trade Records on November 28, 2025.Light Up Gold - Parquet Courts first proper LP - is a dynamic and diverse foray into the back alleys of the American DIY underground. Bright guitars swirl serpentine over looping, groovy post-punk bass lines and drums that border on robotic precision. While the initial rawness of the band's early output remains, the songwriting has gracefully evolved. Primary wordsmiths A. Savage and Austin Brown combine for a dynamic lyrical experience, one part an erudite overflow of ideas, the other an exercise in laid-back observation. Lyrically dense, the poetry is in how it flows along with the melody, often times as locked-in as the rhythm section.InchThis record is for the over-socialized victims of the 1990's 'you can be anything you want', Nickelodeon-induced lethargy that ran away from home not out of any wide-eyed big city daydream, but just out of a subconscious return to America's scandalous origin, Inch writes Savage in the album's scratched-out liner notes. Recorded in an ice-box practice space, Light Up Gold is equally indebted to Krautrock, The Fall, and a slew of contemporaries like Tyvek and Eddy Current Suppression Ring.Though made up of Texan transplants, Parquet Courts are a New York band. Throw out the countless shallow Brooklyn bands of the blasé 2000's Light Up Gold is a conscious effort to draw from the rich culture of the city - the bands like Sonic Youth, Bob Dylan, and the Velvet Underground that are not from New York, but of it. A panoramic landscape of dilapidated corner-stores and crowded apartments is superimposed over bare-bones Americana, leaving little room for romance or sentiment. It's punk, it's American, it's New York... it's the color of something you were looking for. Album Tracks 1. Master of My Craft 2. Borrowed Time 3.
