About this product
Formed in 1991 and taking cues from rock, punk, R&B, garage, hardcore, and hip hop idioms, while transcending the limitations of each, the Blues Explosion created a new sound which they've spent the last 16 years honing and redefining. Their music is as deft and bold and life-affirming as the Meters, the Magic Band, or the Birthday Party. Beginning in 1992, the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion earmarked songs from their recording sessions for their Jukebox Single Series on in the Red. The singles, which were based on a similar series done by rockabilly legend Charlie Feathers in the 1970s, featured some of most incendiary, hyper-charged tunes the band ever cut. From their spastic take on Chain Gang's 'Son of Sam' to 'Ghetto Mom' (the final single from 2002) these seven-inch sides always showcased the band's full-throttle punk rock side. Now, for the first time, all five out-of-print singles have been collected in one place on Jukebox Explosion, along with eight previously unheard rarities from the band's early days that are every bit as action-packed, frantic, and furious.

A luxury-grade vinyl transfer in a gatefold 2LP set for a beautifully engineered 2021 album of Scarlatti on the piano from a master German pianist. On it's CD in 2022, this personal choice from Scarlatti's 555 keyboard sonatas won an enthusiastic welcome from Gramophone. 'Contrasts of mood together with unified relationships of tempo and key signature characterise one the most intelligently programmed and distinctively played Scarlatti collections to cross my reviewer's desk in years.' Hardly less than Bach, these sonatas have become for many pianists a proving ground for their own technique and imagination, rewarding an improvisatory response to their flamboyant effects. Schmitt-Leonardy also features several of Scarlatti's most poetic and reflective sonatas such as the 'Aria' Kk 29 and the melancholy soliloquy of Kk 208. The approach taken by Schmitt-Leonardy is always 'pianistic', in that he exploits the full tonal resources of a modern concert grand. Yet his phrasing is also sensitive to 18th-century style and to the kind of effects and articulation particular to the harpsichord for which Scarlatti was writing. 'Kaleidoscopic nuances and dynamic gradations abound throughout the E major Kk135,' continued the Gramophone reviewer Jed Distler, the Gramophone reviewer Jed Distler, 'but not garishly so. Nor does the pianist's curvaceous and tapered phrasing throughout the A major Kk322 lapse into mannerism or cliché.' As with all Brilliant Classics and Piano Classics LPs, this set is issued on 180-gram, high-grade vinyl pressed at the Optimal factory in Hamburg. It's audiophile quality is worthy of performances which bear comparison with great Scarlatti performers of past and present from Horowitz to Pletnev. Inner-sleeve booklet notes by Peter Quantrill discuss each of the sonatas in turn.
