| Backyard
Babies Release |
Black & White PR reports: Having spent
the better part of 2005 on tour with Social Distortion in both Europe and
North America, Swedish glam-punks Backyard Babies now offer up a souvenir
of their concert experience. Live Live In Paris (no, thats not a typo;
its the verb followed by the adjective) showcases 15 classics from the
catalog of the band Kerrang! calls the kings of shit-kicking sleaze.
Recorded before a sold-out French crowd, it provides a memorable snapshot
of the booze-fueled gutter rock thats earned the quartet worldwide acclaim.
Recorded during the Stockholm Syndrome
European tour, Live Live In Paris will be just as cherished by Backyard
Babies fans as ticket stubs and concert t-shirts. For those not as well
acquainted with these Billion Dollar Babies, its a grade-A slab of Swedish
garage sleaze the perfect primer on one of Europes top rock acts in
the setting in which they were meant to be experienced. (Drinks sold separately.)
Backyard Babies Live Live in Paris will be coming out on February 21, 2006
on Liquor & Poker Music.[see full story for more]-

| Manowar
Records |
Press Release reports: During MANOWAR's storied
career, the band faced the trials and tribulations that confront musicians
trying to make it in the music business. Although MANOWAR have been triumphant
in their battle to succeed and have stayed their course through rough waters,
they saw many other bands fall to the perils of greed and commercialization
in the music industry. MANOWAR created Magic Circle Music to help other
bands avoid those same pitfalls by giving the power back to the musicians
and the fans.
Heavy metal is unlike any other musical
genre in one way above all others: Heavy metal is a way of life. Eschewing
confidence, defiance and uncompromising power, metal music is the lifeblood
that flows through the veins of fans and musicians alike. The bond and
devotion between those fans and musicians is undeniable. Magic Circle Music
is paving the way for a new era by creating a healthy and comfortable home
for musicians so that metal will thrive. [see full story for details on
what the label plans to release this year]- Click

JAZZ CRUSADERS - PARIS CONCERT
This performance was recorded at the New
Morning is Paris on November 8, 2002. These "crusaders of jazz" originally
came together in the California of the sixties through the initiative of
Wayne Henderson and Joe Sample, soon joined by Larry Carlton who was just
launching his career. Their weapons, rather than swords and lances, have
always been Soul and Funk. Since the worldwide success of "Street Life",
the group has become an inescapable icon for lovers of sophisticated groove
- and a legendary musical phoenix, rising from its ashes to new life again
and again
Several crusades later, led by the untiring Wayne Henderson,
the Jazz Cursaders are still right up there at the top, more in the groove
than ever to the great delight of the fans who have flocked to the New
Morning. [see full story for more]- Click
