Billy Idol

Dream Into It

Vinyl: $27.69 UNAVAILABLE
Dream Into It, Billy Idol's ninth studio album and first full-length record in over ten years, tells a rich and deeply personal tale of Billy's voyage from young punk rock dreamer to his reset as an MTV leather-gloved icon; then on to all his well-publicized hits, highs, lows, overdoses, and accidents; culminating with a devastatingly honest assessment of the price of fame and the wisdom accrued by getting your act together and embracing family. And even though Dream Into It tells a story it is also, on a track-to-track level, a completely satisfying old school/new school pumping, rocking punk/pop odyssey, as only Billy Idol and longtime guitarist/collaborator Steve Stevens can create, with the able assistance of producer Tommy English and features with rock mavens Joan Jett and Alison Mosshart.

Uwade

Florilegium [LP Cream Mix]

Vinyl: $26.77 UNAVAILABLE
Video
Florilegium, the debut album from songwriter Uwade, winds through genre, through death, break-ups, friendship, and failure. Here, she wanted to honor as much of herself as she could her family and Nigerian heritage, her scholarly tendencies, her background in choirs, the literature that moves her, the melodies of artists like Fela Kuti, Yebba, and Julian Casablancas of the Strokes, who inspired her to start writing songs at the inception of her music-making. Cerebral and curious, each musical moment feels tactile, deliberate, and thoughtful but also fresh, like something just discovered. A shimmering anthology that finds sweetness and light in sorrow, an amalgamation of disparate influences and recording sessions seamlessly fitting together through her expressive, expansive voice.

1931 was the breakthrough year for 32-year-old Hungarian immigrant Eugene Ormandy. First, he was engaged by the Philadelphia Orchestra to deputize for his idol Toscanini, who was briefly indisposed. Then, a few months later, he was asked to step in for the conductor of the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra, also indisposed but in this case permanently. Soon Ormandy was hired to take over that rising Midwestern orchestra. At the end of his five-year tenure in Minneapolis, which produced a considerable discography for RCA Victor (available in an 11-CD Sony Classical box set), Ormandy was called back to Philadelphia, this time to become its co-conductor with Leopold Stokowski. In 1936, he began recording regularly for Victor with his new orchestra, picking up the pace in 1938 when he became its sole music director. Sony Classical is pleased to continue its comprehensive documentation of Eugene Ormandys discography with a new 21-CD release of everything he set down in Philadelphia before the ban on commercial recording instigated by the musicians union in 1942. By the time the strike ended in 1944, Ormandy and the orchestra had moved to Columbia Masterworks.

As connoisseurs have long known, these early Philadelphia albums are among the most impressive performances Ormandy set down in over 40 years at the orchestras helm. The first to be released fittingly enough for a Russian music specialist was Tchaikovskys Pathtique Symphony, recorded by Victor on December 13, 1936. That three-hour session in Philadelphias Academy of Music, the orchestras home, was the first of more than 400 led by Ormandy. And it was highly productive Ormandy had a reputation as a fast worker yielding not only the Tchaikovsky, but also two Bach arrangements by Lucien Cailliet, a Philadelphia Orchestra clarinetist and its staff arranger, the first three movements of Schumanns Second Symphony and, most importantly, Fritz Kreislers arrangement of Paganinis D major Violin Concerto, with Kreisler himself as soloist.

More Tchaikovsky followed during this early Victor stint: in 1941, Ormandy and the Philadelphians recorded the Fifth Symphony and the NutcrackerSuite. The latters matrices suffered from processing problems that rendered them too noisy to release until now. The orchestras contract, however, allowed them to re-make the recording for RCA in 1945, even though theyd already gone over to Columbia, and it has been possible to include both versions here.

Ormandy recorded Mussorgskys Pictures at an Exhibition, one of his most celebrated interpretations, in 1937, but not in the familiar Ravel orchestration that he would always use later. Having just taken over as sole conductor of the orchestra after Stokowskis resignation, he wanted his own version of the Pictures, so he commissioned a new score from the orchestras house arranger, Lucien Cailliet.

The Philadelphia Orchestras most famous Russian connection was with Sergei Rachmaninoff, who premired a number of his works with them during Stokowskis tenure. When Ormandy assumed the music directorship, he was thrilled to continue the partnership especially as he had developed a friendship with the composer at his 1931 Minneapolis SO dbut concert, in which Rachmaninoff was the soloist. The partnership reached its height in late 1939 when Ormandy mounted a Rachmaninoff Festival at the Academy of Music and New Yorks Carnegie Hall to mark the 30th anniversary of his Philadelphia Orchestra dbut. They also took advantage of the opportunity to record three of Rachmaninoffs concertos for RCA, the First, Third and Fourth, legendary performances that have never been out of the catalogue and are, of course, reissued here.

At the Budapest Academy, Ormandy had studied the violin with a pupil of Brahmss great friend Joseph Joachim who also encouraged Ormandy as a child, so Brahmss music was in his blood from the beginning. As a conductor, Brahmss symphonies were at the core of his repertoire, and he gave more performances of them with the Philadelphia Orchestra than any other conductor in American musical history. He first recorded the Second with the Philadelphians anonymously for the Worlds Greatest Music series in March 1939, and nine months later conducted a tauter, official version for release on RCA. Both are included here along with Ormandys other recordings for Worlds Greatest Music, all made in 1938: the Mozart G minor, Beethovens Fifth, Schuberts Unfinished and the Brandenburg Concertos Nos. 2 and 3.

Two other famous Brahms recordings from 1939 are the Alto Rhapsody with Marian Anderson and the Double Concerto with Jascha Heifetz and Emanuel Feuermann, about which Gramophones original reviewer wrote: Rarely can the powers of two string players have been so fully extended, so richly proved The whole thing is tremendous: a manifestation, for all who have an ear of the soul, of the composers greatness of heart and mind.

Soloists revered Ormandy throughout his career. Said Isaac Stern: There was not a single conductor who was a greater colleague in the making of a concerto record. In addition to the Brahms Double and the Paganini First Concerto with Kreisler, mentioned earlier, the new Sony collection reissues the Mendelssohn and Spohrs No. 8 with another famous violinist, Albert Spalding, and the Grieg Piano Concerto with Arthur Rubinstein: A glittering specimen and exuberantly played The best of the modern readings (Gramophone).

Sibelius was another leading composer Ormandy knew personally and performed regularly he also visited him in Finland and brought him to Philadelphia. For an album to mark the composers 75th birthday in 1940, he recorded three tone poems, while the next year saw a new recording of the First Symphony (Ormandys earlier one was made in Minneapolis in 1935), which he identified as the first of the masters symphonies I ever conducted. Two further versions would follow, in 1962 (for Columbia) and in 1978 (for RCA).

Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra were Victors chief Richard Strauss exponents during these years, making the first electrical recording of theSymphonia Domesticain 1938, followed in 1939 by Ein Heldenleben and in 1940 by Don Quixote,with Emanuel Feuermann. HindemithsMathis der MalerSymphony was still a new work when Ormandy recorded it in 1940, only six years after the composer introduced it with his own Berlin Philharmonic recording. Strauss family waltzes had already featured in Ormandys Minneapolis recordings. The three waltzes in this Philadelphia set earned praise from Gramophone in 1942: You will enjoy the brilliance of the combinations of tone, and their balance one of the exciting things about all the best American recordings Here is full-voiced tonal splendour.

American music was a prominent feature of this conductors repertoire he was always eager to promote the composers of his adopted homeland. Here we find the first recording of any work by Gian Carlo Menotti, his Amelia Goes to the Ball Overture, and the earliest recording of an orchestral work by Samuel Barber, his First Essay for Orchestra, as well as pieces by Roy Harris and two Sousa marches from the orchestras last session before the musicians strike shut down commercial recording for the next three years. But not before Ormandy and his Philadelphians had amassed the treasures brought together here for the first time.

Willie Nelson - Oh What A Beautiful World - Willie Nelson's new album (his 77th solo studio album and his 154th album overall) is an album that focuses on the songs of Rodney Crowell, the latest in Nelson's storied history of focusing entire albums on a single songwriter's work. Willie Nelson and Rodney Crowell are two Texas singer-songwriters whose careers have intersected often since Crowell first heard Nelson's earliest songs on the radio and saw his shows in Houston in the mid-1960s. Willie first recorded a Rodney Crowell song in 1983 and last did so 40 years later for 2024's The Border. Produced by Nelson's longtime collaborator Buddy Cannon and featuring an amazing backing band of Nashville gunslingers accompanying Nelson's vocals and inspired guitar work on Trigger, the album handpicks 12 songs from the last 50 years, including the title track as a duet between Nelson and Crowell. From early tracks like 1976's "Banks Of The Old Bandera" (recorded by Jerry Jeff Walker) and 1981's "Shame On The Moon" (a hit for Bob Seger) to 90s tracks like "What Kind Of Love," (co-written by Will Jennings based on a Roy Orbison melody), "Stuff That Works" (co-written with Guy Clark), from early 2000's cuts written for hit albums by Keith Urban and Tim McGraw to four cuts from Crowell's beloved 2010s albums and a cut released as recently as 2021.

Mathias Eick

Lullaby

Vinyl: $28.71 UNAVAILABLE
Vinyl LP pressing. For Lullaby, Norwegian trumpeter Mathias Eick draws on the quartet formation in a program that includes some of his most exploratory and improvisatory qualities to date, with a cast of ECM familiars Kristjan Randalu and Ole Morten V?gan on piano and bass, and new arrival Hans Hulb?kmo on drums. There's a sense of abandon within these deeply melodic songs, as the musicians flow smoothly between harmonies, collectively building momentum from within the forms. Eick's immediately recognizable and soothing tone is often confronted by Randalu's in turns lyrical and energetic keyboard flights, soaring above a propulsive, always engaging rhythm section. The album was recorded at Rainbow Studio in Oslo.

Trumpeter Mathias Eick is the sole returnee from Lackner's debut, Last Decade, and can be heard in striking dualism with Mark Turner's idiosyncratic saxophone dialect, forming a key characteristic of the interplay that permeates Spindrift.
