Faces (Rod Stewart) - Ooh La La (1973)

Year: March 1973 (CD Sep 14, 1993)
Label: Warner Bros. Records (US), 2665-2
Style: Rock, Rock and Roll
Country: London, England
Time: 30:30
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz
Size: 195 Mb

Ooh La La is the fourth studio album by the English rock band Faces, released in March 1973. It reached number one in the UK Albums Chart in the week of 28 April 1973.
The cover of the album was designed by Jim Ladwig, around a stylised photograph of "Gastone", a stage character of 1920s Italian comedian Ettore Petrolini. The original LP's Art Deco-inspired cover was constructed in such a way that when the top edge of the sleeve was pressed down, a concealed die-cut design element would descend that made Gastone's eyes appear to discolour and move to the side, and his jaw would appear to drop into a leering smile. The back cover also featured art deco-inspired design elements, and detailed song information and album credits alongside tinted individual photographic portraits of the band members. The original gatefold sleeve's inner design depicted a large stylised photomontage of the band in typical 'laddish' pose, admiring the charms of a can-can dancer (referencing the lyric of the title track).

Grateful Dead - Live Dead [Live. 2LP on 1CD] (1969)

Year: November 10, 1969 (CD ????)
Label: Warner Bros. Records (Germany), 927 181-2
Style: Psychedelic Rock, Rock
Country: Palo Alto, California, U.S.
Time: 73:02
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz
Size: 387 Mb

Live/Dead is the first official live album (and fourth overall) released by the rock band Grateful Dead. Recorded over a series of concerts in early 1969 and released later the same year, it was the first live rock album to use 16-track recording.
The title has a double meaning. It refers both to the band (the "Dead") playing live, and is an oxymoron, contrasting the two words in apparent contradiction. The artwork, created by Robert Donovan Thomas (aka Bob Thomas), also illustrated this juxtaposition. The word "Live" is seen on the front cover, and the word "Dead" fills the back cover of the gatefold. Additionally, on the back cover, the top portion of "Dead" somewhat cryptically spells out "Acid".
To assuage debt accrued with their record label from their recent album Aoxomoxoa, as well as fulfill their record contract, the band decided to record a live album. They were also interested in releasing an album more representative of their live performances and actual musicianship, as opposed to the in-studio experimentation of previous albums.

Traveling Wilburys - Volume One [Japanese Ed.] (1988)

Year: 18 October 1988 (CD Nov 28, 1988)
Label: Warner Bros. Records (Japan), 25P2-2327
Style: Classic Rock, Folk Rock
Country: Los Angeles, California, U.S.
Time: 36:22
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz
Size: 255 Mb

Charts: AUS #1, AUT #3, CAN #1, NOR #2, NZ #2, SWE #2, SWI #6, UK #16, US #3. UK: PLatinum; US: 3x Platinum; AUS & CAN: 6x Platinum.
The Traveling Wilburys were a British-American supergroup formed in Los Angeles in 1988, consisting of Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty. They were a roots rock band and described as "perhaps the biggest supergroup of all time".
Originating from an idea discussed by Harrison and Lynne during the sessions for Harrison's 1987 album Cloud Nine, the band formed in April 1988 after the five members united to record a bonus track for Harrison's next European single. When this collaboration, "Handle with Care", was deemed too good for such a limited release, the group agreed to record a full album, titled Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1, released in October 1988. Following Orbison's death in December 1988, the Wilburys continued as a quartet and released a second album, incongruously titled Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3, in 1990.
The release of their debut album was much anticipated because of the stature of the participants. The band members adopted tongue-in-cheek pseudonyms as half-brothers from the fictional Wilbury family of travelling musicians. Vol. 1 was a critical and commercial success, helping to revitalise Dylan's and Petty's careers. In 1990, the album won the Grammy for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group.
Although Harrison envisioned a series of Wilburys albums and a film about the band, to be produced through his company HandMade, the group became dormant after 1991 and never officially reunited, though the individual members continued to collaborate on each other's solo projects at various times. Harrison died in 2001, followed by Petty in 2017, leaving Dylan and Lynne as the only surviving members.

I liked the penguins. Penguins have very weakly developed sexual characteristics. Sometimes, they only find out they are of the same sex after mating.

David Byrne (Talking Heads) - Miss America [Single] (1997)

Year: 1997 (CD 1997)
Label: Warner Bros. Records (Germany), 9362-43874-2
Style: Alternative Rock, Pop Rock
Country: Dumbarton, Scotland (May 14, 1952)
Time: 13:57
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz
Size: 101 Mb

David Byrne (born May 14, 1952, Dumbarton, Dunbartonshire, Scotland) is a Scottish-born musician and interdisciplinary artist who was best known as the front man of the influential American art-rock group Talking Heads. He went on to gain respect for an eclectic solo career.
As a child, Byrne moved with his Scottish parents to Canada and then to the United States. While attending the Rhode Island School of Design in the mid-1970s, he cofounded Talking Heads, serving as the group’s principal singer and guitarist. Identified with the punk and new wave movements, the band released its debut album, Talking Heads ’77, in 1977. It was followed by releases-including Remain in Light (1980), Speaking in Tongues (1983), and the concert-film sound track Stop Making Sense (1984)-that reflected Byrne’s interest in experimental pop and African rhythms. After issuing the album Naked (1988), the group dissolved.
Even at the peak of Talking Heads’ popularity, Byrne pursued other creative projects. During a band hiatus in the early 1980s, he wrote the score for choreographer Twyla Tharp’s The Catherine Wheel (1981) and collaborated with Brian Eno on the album My Life in the Bush of Ghosts (1981), a groundbreaking collage of rhythmic grooves and vocal samples. Byrne subsequently wrote and directed the offbeat film True Stories (1986), and his contributions to the score of The Last Emperor (1987) earned him an Academy Award. Also during the 1980s he provided music for two theatre works staged by director Robert Wilson.
