Starsailor - All This Life - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2018 . When a German band makes Irish music and calls their record Green Blood, it makes you think if something went wrong in the thought process. But The O'Reillys and the Paddyhats are by no means a goose who thinks it's a fox. They are much more fox and goose in one. Because Green Blood is the term for what the seven Irish Folk Punkers and their audience have felt for years. It does not stand for the origin of the green island, but for the love of it. That's why it's true what's sung in the popular Irish Pub song InchWherever you go around the world, you'll find an Irish PubInch. You do not have to be an Irishman to love the Celtic music developed by migration and immigration. You do not have to have red pubic hair and shamrocks in your wallet to drink Guinness. The stereotypes are old and yet there are so many in them and the love for the green island again. Now finally it says one, whether you come from Hong Kong or Castrop Rauxel - you, too can have the green blood in you. This new album will cast a spell on you. 13 titles about love, S*x, fight, old and new dreams but also songs about worries can be found on 'Green Blood.' It's an album that builds the bridge to those who have always carried the green blood and those who want it. Because the yearning for Green Blood is insatiable.

The 20th Anniversary Edition of Silence is Easy will be available on 2CD, replete with hugely collectable and exclusive Spector demos of Fidelity and White Dove. It also brings together key remixes of Four To The Floor (Thin White Duke and Soulsavers) as well as rare live versions of Silence Is Easy and Four To The Floor from London's Somerset House and The Coronet.

(2-CD set) Recorded live during a four week acoustic tour, this album is Lindisfarne's first recording since the sudden death of co-founder and principal songwriter Alan Hull in 1995. The fifteen tracks show that the band's sound was as influenced as much by the R'n'B of the States as it was their own North East roots. Slide guitar, blues harmonica and vocals mix with whistle, accordion and banjo in versions of many of the band's classic numbers. Untapped & Acoustic not only shows that Lindisfarne are still as striking as ever in live performance, but also serves as a fitting testament to Alan's unique songwriting talent.
