Nashville's Framing Hanley is poised to explode in 2010 with "A Promise To Burn", their new collection of 13 melody-driven, alternative rock anthems. The band has already been named as one of Kerrang Magazine's "Hot for 2010".

Tom Petty's love affair with the more pop-oriented output of the Byrds and Dylan at their mid-'60s prime continued to find an increasingly wide audience in the '80s--and damned if some people didn't persist in calling it "new wave." Go figure. If writing hook-laden, instantly memorable pop-rock songs was both a sign of genius and one of music's toughest feats, Hard Promises (and its FM evergreens, "The Waiting" and "A Woman in Love") confirmed that Petty was one skinny, little, hard-working prodigy. Picking up effortlessly where Damn the Torpedoes left off, Petty and the equally conscientious Heartbreakers took nothing about their newfound fame for granted, delivering their fourth strong effort in a row, this one increasingly seasoned with touches of their Southern roots.

Italian- born/French- raised chanteuse Bruni has written a poignant record establishing her as an undeniably gorgeous new voice to American ears. With two previous records, heralded in her home of Europe, Bruni's current creation is her first English language album to hit US shores via Downtown records. Carla's fascination and appreciation of the language prompted her to make an album comprised of her favorite poems (from Emily Dickinson to WH Auden to William Butler Yeats), interpreting them into delicate and introspective songs. Profound, potent, and imbued with a delicate beauty.

John McLaughlin is universally recognized as one of the world's greatest guitarists; his pioneering recordings range from his landmark work with Tony Williams and Miles Davis, his own fusion recordings with the Mahavishnu Orchestra and his dazzling solo work in jazz and world music. In 1996, McLaughlin released The Promise, an album that encapsulated his diverse resumé. Guests included fellow guitarists Jeff Beck, Al DiMeola and Paco De Lucia; jazz heavyweights Joey DeFrancesco, David Sanborn and Michael Brecker; the singular Sting; and the renowned world music musicians Zakir Hussain, Nishat Khan and Trilok Gurtu, among others. The Promise, which McLaughlin produced, was quickly recognized as a modern classic. "****1/2 stars - this colorful set has plenty of surprises." - All Music Guide... Less

Our limited edition 2 CD set that included the first release of the original LP mix and a remixed version was a quick sellout. The reviews and comments about the pitch-corrected and newly mixed version have been amazing and people who hadn't heard about the release until it was too late were not so happy that it was gone. Therefore, after consultation with the rights' holders, Metro Goldwyn Mayer Music Inc., it was decided to allow a second edition 1000 copy run of just the remixed version. Here is the information about that version: The raison d'etre of this release was to present a second CD with a newly mixed version (from those original and great-sounding eight-track edited session masters) that, with today's technology, could finally fix most of the issues that plagued the original...

Also like MY BETTER SELF, PROMISED LAND shows that his emotionally direct lyrics and warm vocal style are a perfect fit with this style of low-key electric pop, as shown on tracks like the first single "It's Alright" and the jangly rocker "Go To The Woods."

After a ten year hiatus from the spotlight, Vaya Con Dios and it's driving force, singer Dani Klein are back with a new album, The Promise. Originally formed in 1986 by Klein and then partner, bass player Dirk Schoufs with guitarist Willy Lambregt, the band achieved international success by breaking down genre barriers within popular music. By effortlessly combining a rich variety of Mediterranean rhythms, along side melancholy gypsy music, Indian, and Arab sounds, it all showcased the trademark voice of Dani Klein. Vaya Con Dios went on to sell over 7 million albums and had such hit singles as 'Just A Friend Of Mine' and 'Puerto Rico' from their debut album 'Vaya Con Dios' in 1988 'What's AWoman' and 'Nah Neh Nah' from the album Night Owls in 1990. PIAS. 2004.

In 1969, Texas acid-psych warlords the Bubble Puppy burst onto the U.S. Top 20 with "Hot Smoke and Sasafrass," the slashing, frenzied 2:33 freakout that kicks off the band's brain-bending debut, A Gathering of Promises. Signed to Houston's legendary International Artists imprint, the foursome were label mates of such hallowed acts as the 13th Floor Elevators and the Red Krayola. But A Gathering of Promises, the group's sole International Artists album, stands out from the rest' of the roster with its rich vocal harmonies and heavier, Cream/Hendrix/Who sound. Descended from Corpus Christi garage kings the Bad Seeds, the Bubble Puppy's tripped out calling card was its combination of soaring, fuzz-drenched guitars, frantic drumming, stop-on-a-dime arrangements, and tight, graceful...
