"When considering the jazz vibraphone giants of the 20th century, seven stand out: Lionel Hampton, Red Norvo, Milt Jackson, Terry Gibbs, Cal Tjader, Gary Burton, and Bobby Hutcherson. Bobby Hutcherson (1941-2016), originally inspired by Milt Jackson, emerged from Los Angeles in the late 1950s. After a stint with the Billy Mitchell/Al Grey sextet in 1962, Hutcherson moved to New York, becoming the house vibraphonist for the Blue Note label. His foundation in hard bop did not limit him, as he also played in avant-garde sessions with artists like Eric Dolphy and Jackie McLean. On December 11, 1983, the 42-year-old Hutcherson performed seven standards with a stellar group. Pianist George Cables, consistently excellent throughout his career, had been working with Hutcherson since 1977. Bassist Herbie Lewis, a versatile musician, had collaborated with Hutcherson since 1966. Drummer Philly Joe Jones, known for his work with Miles Davis, also contributed to the session. The recording of the Four Seasons album features seven standards, starting with Thelonious Monk's 'I Mean You,' which showcases each musician. Hutcherson's solo on Cole Porter's 'All Of You' is particularly adventurous. 'Spring Is Here' receives a beautiful interpretation, and 'Star Eyes' is taken uptempo. Hutcherson's introduction on 'If I Were A Bell' is notable, as is Jones's solo. The session spotlights Cables on 'Summertime' and concludes with a vibrant version of 'Autumn Leaves.' Decades later, the music remains a timeless classic. Four Seasons is available on black vinyl, celebrates its 40th Anniversary, and includes an insert with newly written liner-notes by Scott Yanow."

"Playing with a Different Sex was the debut album by seminal post punk band Au Pairs, released in 1981. Described retrospectively by AllMusic as 'one of the great post-punk records', a review by Record Mirror on its release said the band's 'critique of all forms of possession and sexual stereotyping assumes a devastating power.' Themes include sexual politics and the torture of women imprisoned in Northern Ireland during The Troubles of the 1970s, as well as a stunning cover of David Bowie's 'Repetition' about domestic violence. It peaked at No. 33 in the UK, and features the single 'It's Obvious,' which reached No. 37 on the US Club Play Singles chart. Playing with a Different Sex is available as a numbered limited edition of 750 copies on turquoise colored vinyl and contains an insert."

"K.A (Kohntarkosz Anteria) is the ninth studio album by French rock band Magma. The album was Magma's first full-length studio release in just under 20 years. The material was largely composed by drummer Christian Vander in 1973-74, and fragments of it can be heard on Magma's 1977 live album Inedits. K.A is sung almost entirely in Magma's constructed language Kobaian. This album is part of the Kohntarkosz cycle of albums. Christian Vander revisited an old unrecorded composition and gave it a very successful modern-day reinterpretation Introducing a new group sound that blends the vintage 'Da Zeuhl' elements from Magma's Kohntarkosz-era material and the engrossing cosmic jazz and massed vocals of Vander's later group, Offering. The lineup featured here is very similar to the one appearing on the 2001 live CD and DVD Theusz Hamtaakh La Trilogie au Trianon. The album is a must-have for die-hard fans and newcomers alike. K.A. is now available as a remastered 2LP in a gatefold sleeve. The record is cut at 45rpm for the ultimate audio experience."

[sold out] "Sense and Sensuality (1982) was the second and final album by seminal British post-punk band Au Pairs. The four-piece group from Birmingham were very much in tune with the early '80s growth pangs from the first punk explosion -- stripping down their music from their debut LP to a funkier, more rhythmic essence, and shifting the focus of their lyrics to the personal rather than the political. The addition of horns and imaginative synthesizers allowed for more satisfying sonic diversity, from the disco-informed dance-punk of 'Instant Touch' to the cabaret swing of 'Tongue in Cheek.' While 'That's When It's Worth It' takes several elements of popular postpunk -- looping auxiliary percussion rhythms and a sporadically used horn section -- and crafts them into a wild sound that's equal parts dance, psychedelia, punk and art pop. Their distinctly punk take on sex and gender politics, meanwhile, was their strongest thematic strain - and that's truly where Sense and Sensuality shined. Despite only reaching #79 in the UK when first released, it's now widely seen as one of the best post-punk albums ever. Sense and Sensuality is available as a limited numbered edition of 750 copies on silver color and contains an insert."

"This record is the sound of dreams fulfilled, dashed, then fulfilled again. Candy McKenzie, a young singer from North West London, had endured a hard life before she flew to Jamaica in pursuit of a dream that she didn't fully understand. Candy McKenzie was a young talent in need of an experienced producer. Who better than Lee Perry, who had created international hits for another raw female talent, Susan Cadogan, not to mention his brilliant work with Max Romeo, Junior Murvin, and the Heptones? All the magic of Perry's classics are here. Candy sadly passed away in 2003, and it might appear she was an unfulfilled talent, but she and Lee Perry left listeners this beautiful hidden gem of an album. The album is available as a limited numbered edition of 750 copies on orange colored vinyl and includes an insert."

Later, he moved to Switzerland and reinvented himself as a performance and visual artist but continued to produce innovative music -- collaborations include The Beastie Boys, The Clash, Keith Richards, George Clinton, and Adrian Sherwood.
