Chantal Chamberland – Dripping Indigo – Evosound Records 180g 2LP Coloured Vinyl
Smooth as a dry martini and equally intoxicating, Chantal Chamberland’s “Dripping Indigo” cements her role as one of the best interpreters of classic song book favorites.
Two factors set Chamberland’s music apart from the pack. First, the arrangements are slow and sexy relying on a small jazz ensemble for backing (piano, sax, bass light rhythm).
Secondly is her luscious voice, which caresses the listener with a breathy purr throughout the album.

Matthew Sweet – Altered Beast – Intervention Records Expanded Edition 180G Vinyl LP
The middle entry in Matthew Sweet’s holy 90’s Power-Pop Trilogy, Altered Beast is a sprawling, multi-dimensional power-pop trip finally presented at its artistic fullest. Sweet was a songwriting machine in this period, and in doing source research a third analog master reel with 6 extra tracks was discovered. Intervention’s 2X 180-Gram LP Expanded Edition is a 21-track Beast that shows a master songwriter at his prolific best.

Fragile was Yes’ breakthrough album, propelling them in a matter of weeks from a cult act to an international phenomenon. Not coincidentally, it also marked the point where all of the elements of the music (and more) that would define the group’s success for more than a decade fell into place fully formed, writes AllMusic, giving Fragilea 5-Star rating.

If great art, as many believe, is inherently polarizing, then the Stone Temple Pilots’ Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop easily ranks as the California-based band’s finest album. Simultaneously celebrated and castigated upon release in spring 1996, the group’s third full-length finds vocalist Scott Weiland and company expanding their “grunge” palette with a smart blend of glam rock, psychedelia, jangle pop, and other related styles. Having benefited from long-view reassessments that shed the biases and meanness of initial criticisms, the double-platinum effort is now largely and rightly seen as a creative masterwork. All the more reason why it deserves reference-grade production.
