Summer 2009. Unless you were one of the 100,000 lucky fans to get tickets to Blur's sell-out gigs, you missed out on outstanding performances from one of Britpop's most iconic bands.

The Sunday Times is giving you the chance to experience the atmosphere of the gigs with a
free and exclusive 10-track live CD. If you were there, this is an amazing chance to relive the euphoria of those summer days.

The free 10-track live CD features:

She's So High
Girls & Boys
Badhead
Beetlebum
Parklife
Out of Time
Song 2
Pop Scene
Tender
The Universal

For fans of Blur, The Sunday Times this weekend is a must-have. Not only will you get the
free 10-track live CD, but there's also a Spectrum special devoted to the band complete with unseen photos from the tour, and a feature in Culture focusing on the story behind the band's reunion.

Our Blur summer memories continue on Sunday, November 29, when you can download five more Blur songs on iTunes for free - only with The Sunday Times next weekend.

Hi, I have just bought the 40th Anniversary “In the Court of the Crimson King”.
It is a complete re-master from the previously lost original recordings of the instruments.
In The Court Of The Crimson King: King Crimson: Amazon.co.uk: Music

It is a CD and DVD set and comes as a nicely packaged mini LP and box sleeve.
It has a new stereo re-master and it also has a MLP lossless 5.1 surround as well as a DTS 5.1 mix.

I have had a chance to have a quick listen and for me it is a worthwhile buy.
It is one of the first records I could ever afford to buy and it remains one of my very best albums.
I think this is more than just an opportunity to milk an old album dry.
The album has extras of genuine worth and excellent quality.
It is interesting to listen to the different original versions of the tracks from the album. Some are different purely instrumental tracks and others also have vocals. I think that from listening to the different versions of the tracks that the band could have made several equally good versions of the album.

I was excited at the prospect of a new 5.1 surround mix to add to my SACD and DVD-A collection so the first thing I listened to was the MLP lossless 5.1 Surround mix (48khz 24bit).
I was disappointed by the poor clarity and volume of Greg Lakes vocals.
Everything starts well until the first vocals and I was left wondering if there is something wrong with my setup.
I found the MLP 5.1 mix to be great on some of the tracks and during instrumental passages in particular, however the vocals on the MLP track is very disappointing for me.
Greg Lakes vocals and the poetic quality of the lyrics and the images they conjure are a key reason for my love of this album.
I don’t mean to put anybody of this album it is awesome it is just that I feel that the MLP 5.1 mix could have been better.
The 5.1 DTS mix has no problems and the vocals are very clear.
The stereo CD sounds very good, pity that it was not up to the SACD quality of the Genesis Albums because this material really deserves the best quality available.

If you are unfamiliar with this album it is one of the most original and innovative albums from the late 1960s. It still sounds amazing today, When I first heard this album I thought to myself that this was what it is all about.
I had heard bands that were supposed to be really good but most of them lacked originality or consistency. This album is the real deal and is well worth a listen if you appreciate great composition and musicianship.
I should leave the last word to Jimi Hendrix who saw the band and declared that “King Crimson were the best band in the world” enough said.

I bought the DVD-CD Set on Saturday. Was giving the CD a spin and to my ears it just doesn't sound right.

The new one - Echo - however is a great mix of ballads, mid and uptempo's!

If you're a rock fan - it's still not for you obviously... :hiya: ...but for most others, it an absolute *belter*...some typical Leona tracks interspersed with some A-typical Leona songs...Outta My Head being a real club 'banger', I Got You is another track you wouldn't associate with her, but her vocals on it bring it up to a different level.

I've listened to it half a dozen times and there's not ONE filler track IMHO....everyone is awesome....gotta be album of the year! :smashin:

"British rapper Derek B, one of the first UK hip-hop stars to enjoy chart success and an influence on future urban artists, has died aged 44.

Derek Boland had UK top 20 hits with Good Groove and Bad Young Brother in 1988 and co-wrote the Anfield Rap for Liverpool Football Club.

His hits saw him become one of the first British hip-hop stars to appear on programmes like Top of the Pops.

"He definitely broke the door down," London rapper Ty told BBC News.

"He was one of the first artists that I saw get to such a level through rap, and be on Top of the Pops, be on children's programmes, be on the world stage.

"He was one of the ones to do it first, when it was thoroughly unacceptable from the mainstream perspective. At the time, he was absolutely groundbreaking. He definitely broke the door down."

Boland suffered a heart attack, according to reports.

BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe paid tribute on Twitter, saying Boland's 1988 debut Bullet From A Gun "was a massive album for me", while singer Estelle described him as a "UK originator". ]]> Music soundstory http://www.avforums.com/forums/music/1127033-british-rapper-derek-b-dies-44-a.html Bocelli is Back! http://www.avforums.com/forums/music/1126569-bocelli-back.html Mon, 16 Nov 2009 18:18:12 GMT With the weather getting cold n’ all, I started thinking about Christmas and the holidays.
