Mercury US レコード& CD

Review: Tori Amos is celebrating the tenth anniversary of her critically acclaimed album Unrepentant Geraldines with this special Deluxe Edition. It is a newly remastered version which includes three exclusive tracks, namely 'White Telephone To God,' 'Forest Of Glass,' and the newly released 'Dixie.' Unrepentant Geraldines marked Amos' return to her pop and rock roots after several classical albums. Recorded at Martian Engineering Studios, the self-produced album features a stripped-back acoustic sound that highlights Amos's vocals and piano with chamber-pop arrangements. The lyrics, inspired by visual art, explore fairy-tale themes and introspection and the album reached number 7 in the US, making Amos's eighth top ten album there.

Review: Rush 50 is a career-spanning, 50-track anthology celebrating the Canadian trio Rush's breakneck journey in prog rock, virtuosity and "philosophical rock". Available in five configurations - this one being the 7xLP Deluxe Edition - this collection includes seven unreleased tracks, including the band's debut single 'Not Fade Away' and a live recording from their final concert in 2015. Distilling in as effective a manner as possible the full 50 annual yards of Rush's evolution - from their early days to full-throttle stadium rock grandeur - Rush 50 is also made up partly but significantly of unreleased live performances from 1974 and their final 2015 show, nestled next to hits like 'Tom Sawyer' and 'The Spirit Of Radio'. A 104-page book, new artwork, and a graphic novel helps further detail the band's history.
