premier artists, and also recruited some of pop music's biggest artists,
each a Sergio fan, to contribute to various tracks, including Justin Timberlake,
Stevie Wonder, Erykah Badu, india.arie, Black Thought of The Roots, John

Mix |
Harper PR reports: Thundering hoofs, the glory
of nature, and riding 'as one' with a favorite horse. For many of today's
top musicians, there's no better muse. On Sunday, January 29, 2006, from
8-10 PM (ET/PT), Animal Planet explores the remarkable bond that some of
music's modern stars share with their horses in the world premiere of TRAIL
MIX. At the heart of this two-hour, high-definition special is Linda Eder,
an acclaimed singer and passionate equestrian who sets out on a worldwide
journey to interview rock stars, pop singers and other music phenoms to
learn about the impact horses have had on their lives on and off the stage.
The eclectic mix of featured musical artists
include nine-time Grammy winner and rock siren Sheryl Crow, former Matchbox
Twenty front-man and solo recording artist Rob Thomas; two-time Grammy
winner and cross-over country music sweetheart LeAnn Rimes; solo recording
artist and legendary lead guitarist of rock super band Aerosmith, Joe Perry;
Grammy winning singer/songwriter Mary Chapin Carpenter; and world-renowned
Irish tenor Ronan Tynan. With the help of host Linda Eder, these stars
reveal a rarely-seen side of themselves as they talk about their passion,
explain how horses rejuvenate their art and share their most compelling
stories about the horses they have known, to reveal surprising details
about their own personal lives. Each interview culminates in a one-of-a-kind
music video featuring a montage of exclusive footage and outtakes of the
singers and their horses. [see full story for more]- Click

| Lamb
of God Deluxe Reissue |
Prosthetic Records reports: Prosthetic Records
is proud to announce a deluxe reissuing of LAMB OF GOD's influential and
highly-lauded debut album, New American Gospel on April 4, 2006.
Remastered and repackaged with four bonus
tracks, exclusive liner notes from the band, and the video for the proven
classic "Black Label," alongside a re-imaging facelift from longtime band
collaborator Ken Adams, LAMB OF GOD's now famous debut album finally gets
the treatment it deserves in 2006. The music on New American Gospel has
quickly become both essential and classic metal material, having already
helped to revitalize and re-inspire a once stale American metal scene and
assist in usher in this decade's New Wave of American Heavy Metal and forever
leaving its mark on the worldwide metal scene. With the band's brand of
death-influenced thrash metal with hardcore grooves, and a plethora of
devastating live shows through the band's diehard work ethic, LAMB OF GOD
continues to wave the flag for uncompromisingly heavy music, even half
a decade after the band's breakthrough album.[see full story for more]-
