Sofia Jannok - AHPI wide as oceans 2013
Few artists make such an impression as Sofia Jannok. Her passion and charisma leave no one indifferent. Her new musical expression gives us an emotional and grand experience at the intersection between the complexity of modern indie pop and timeless nerve. With tours ranging from Kautokeino in northern Norway to Shanghai in China, she engages the audience with her uncompromising style rooted in the strength of the northern plains. When the heart sings, people listen.

Christina Gustafsson - The Law Of The Lady 2012
Christina Gustafsson releases her third album, The Law of the Lady. She has followed her vision from the beginning to the end and the result is striking.

In this project Christina works together with Calle Rasmusson, who\'s a member of Christina\'s band and who also works as an arranger with European orchestras and artists. Christina and Calle have arranged this album together in a very personal way.

As a composer she has gained a lot of attention during the years and in 2007 she was awarded the SKAP scholarship. Together with Rigmor Gustafsson, Christina was also awarded the Anita O\'Day price in 2012 with the motivation: Rigmor and Christina Gustafsson belong to the elite among European female jazz singers.

Britta Persson - If I Was A Band my Name Would Be Forevers 2013
Jag är tokig i allt på If I was a band my name would be forevers. Titeln, Brittas röst, den cheerleaderhärliga 90-talsnostalgin Grunge girls och somriga Come transmit, de smarta raderna i Turqouise voice, månskenromantiken i Meanwhile on earth och suggestiva Time is your horse.
Perssons fjärde album bygger på den perfekta symbiosen av vemod och sprittande energi. Allt i en sällsynt uttänkt och kärleksfullt genomarbetad studioproduktion som andas 80-tal men känns helt och hållet här och nu.Om inte det här blir Britta Perssons breda genombrott säger jag upp bekantskapen med världen.

Court Yard Hounds - Amelita 2013
Court Yard Hounds is an American country music and folk duo, founded by sisters Martie Maguire and Emily Robison. They, along with Natalie Maines, make up the Dixie Chicks. The sisters decided to record a side project under a different name. Court Yard Hounds, featuring Robison for the first time as lead vocalist released a debut album for Columbia Records, the same label for which the Dixie Chicks has recorded, on May 4, 2010. The album debuted at No. 7 on the Billboard 200 chart, initially selling 61,000 copies. It has sold approximately 825,000 copies in the United States.
Amelita is the second studio album by Country band Court Yard Hounds. It was released in July 2013 under Columbia Records. (wikipedia)
The sisters tackle a variety of subjects and sounds on the diverse country-pop album. The title track has a lighthearted ease, while 'Phoebe,' an eerie ballad based on a tragic suicide that the sisters read about, has an appropriately stressed overtone. Robison sings lead on most songs and Maguire co-wrote the majority; however, Maguire sings lead on 'Guy Like You.' The lead single on the album, 'Sunshine,' is a sarcastically titled song about a narcissistic acquaintance. (rollingstone.com)

Refreshments - Let It Rock 2013
Something life-altering happened when the members of Sweden\'s The Refreshments discovered Chuck Berry some 30 years ago. A world of classic rock\'n\'roll opened up in a time when you saw more hair metal bands and synth duos than duck-walks
But in the industrial town Gävle a bunch of teenagers sat mesmerized by the record players and searched their way back in time. To Chuck Berry and the legendary Chess studio in Chicago. To Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and of course Elvis Presley, who all recorded their first records in Memphis\' classic Sun Studios.
In 1989 they formed The Refreshments and they haven\'t looked back since. After almost a quarter of a century, sales of more than half a million albums and 3 500+ shows, they have without doubt earned the title as Sweden\'s hardest working and most rootsy rock\'n\'roll band several times over.
But it wouldn\'t be until January 2013 until a lifelong dream came true: to to travel to the USA and record a tribute album to their constant source of inspiration - Chuck Berry - in Sun Studios, the Mecka of rock history. It turned out to be a dizzifying experience for Joakim Arnell (vocals/bass), Johan \'J.B\' Blohm (piano/vocals), Mats Forsberg (drums) and Jonas Göransson (guitar). (refreshments.nu)

Yngve Stoor - Drommarnas o - 1966-1967
Den europeiska hawaiigitarrens okrönte konung. Populär och folkkär, men fick aldrig den respekt han förtjänade.
Yngve Stoor föddes 1912 och dog 1985. Han var Sveriges främste hawaiigitarrist, utan jämförelse. Redan i slutet av 1920-talet specialiserade sig Stoor på hawaiimusik och han gav ut 35 LP-skivor och skrev omkring 300 låtar. Den mest framgånsrika är Sjömansjul på Hawaii från 1945. Yngve Stoor var en entusiastisk vän av Söderhavet och gjorde nära 50 resor i området. Hans musik spelas oftare i Hawaii än i Sverige.
Yngve Stoor gav ut de flesta av sina skivor på egna etiketten Lani, en förklaring till varför det finns så många signerade skivor i omlopp (ofta med texten Med hälsningar Yngve Stoor eller Varma hälsningar Yngve Stoor).
Under en tid drev Yngve Stoor musikaffär på Hantverkargatan 54 i Stockholm: Yngve Stoor Musik och Radio.
Yngve Stoor är begravd på Västberga begravningsplats i Alvsjö, Stockholm. (sunkit.com)

Junior Wells - Better Off With The Blues 1993
Junior Wells spent four decades as one of Chicago's best Blues harmonica players. Working as a solo artist, in a long-time partnership with guitarist Buddy Guy and also backing other Blues greats like Muddy Waters, Wells showed the world that there was no one that he wouldn't try to meet or beat on the Blues harp.
This CD is one of Junior's later releases, but it certainly isn't one of the least. Backed by long-time partner Buddy Guy as well as many of Chicago's best Blues players, Wells puts out a top-notch effort on this one. There is plenty of great music to go around, including his signature piece 'Messin' With The Kid'. The overall effort is typical Junior Wells; straight-forward Rockin' Chicago Blues. A definite must-have for any Chicago Blues Harmonica enthusiast.

B.B. King - Electric Blues 1956-1958 - 2CD
B.B. King (guitar, vocals - born September 16, 1925)
King is reigned across the decades as the genre's most recognizable and influential artist. His half-century of success owes much to his hard work as a touring musician who consistently logged between 200 and 300 shows a year. Through it all he's remained faithful to the blues while keeping abreast of contemporary trends and deftly incorporating other favored forms - jazz and pop, for instance - into his musical overview. Much like such colleagues and contemporaries as Buddy Guy and John Lee Hooker, B.B. King managed to change with the changing times while adhering to his blues roots.
As a guitarist, King is best-known for his single-note solos, played on a hollowbody Gibson guitar. King's unique tone is velvety and regal, with a discernible sting. He's known for his trilling vibrato, wicked string bends, and a judicious approach that makes every note count. King doesn't play chords or slide - instead, he bends individual strings till the notes seem to cry.
More than any other musician of the postwar era, King brought the blues from the margins to the mainstream. His influence on a generation of rock and blues guitarists - including Eric Clapton, Mike Bloomfield and Stevie Ray Vaughan - has been inestimable. 'We don't play rock and roll,' he said in 1957. 'Our music is blues, straight from the Delta.' (rockhall.com)

Bobby Bland - The Best of Bobby Blue Bland 1957-1974
Robert Calvin Bland aka Bobby 'Blue' Bland (born January 27, 1930 - died June 23, 2013)
His hallmark was his supple, confidential soul-blues delivery. As a singer, Bland projected a grainy, down-to-earth quality, punctuated with guttural growls and snorts that would come to be known as the 'chicken-bone sound.' Yet his voice was simultaneously smooth as velvet, allowing Bland to bring audiences under his hypnotic spell as he walked a fine line between passionate expression and exquisite self-control.
BlandΓÇÖs painstakingly crafted records featured his deliberate, resolute vocals set over a backdrop of dazzling horn fanfares, supple rhythm parts and Wayne Bennett's T-Bone Walker-style guitar. The quality of the records was stunning, and Bland's vocals were the centerpiece. He projected warmth and intimacy, but he could also growl and howl. As a measure of his considerable appeal to black audiences, Bland placed an amazing 51 singles on the R&B Top 40.
Bobby Bland was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in 1981 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992. In 1997, he received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. (rockhall.com)
