Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in Heavyweight LP from Saxon The British Heavy Metal legends have delivered a fullroarfundown set of covers with their 2021 covers opus, Inspirations, which features some of the superb classic rock songs that influenced Biff Byford & the band. Released on March 19th 2021, Inspirations includes Saxon’s crunching take on The Rolling Stones’ ‘Paint It Black’. From the supercharged melodic romp of The Beatles’ ‘Paperback Writer’ to their freeway mad take on Jimi Hendrix’s ‘Stone Free’, Saxon show their love and appreciation with a series of faithful, raw and ready tributes. Recorded at Brockfield House near York, UK, with a firm eye on the old school way using Marshall cabs, Marshall &s, real drums and produced by Biff Byford with Jacky Lehmann recording and mixing, Saxon approach the likes of Motoumlrhead’s ‘Bomber’ with added whistle, ACDC’s ‘Problem Child’, Black Sabbath’s ‘Evil Woman’ and a raucous Deep Purple’s ‘Speed King’ with refreshingly warm, unfiltered, “vintage” sounding renditions.Byford takes on some new vocal challenges, which he duly smashes on the likes of Thin Lizzy’s ‘The Rocker’. The net result is that whether cranking up a heavyweight take on Led Zeppelins ‘Immigrant Song’ or throwing down ACDC’s ‘Problem Child’, Saxon does a supreme job of entertaining both themselves and their audience throughout Inspirations.

Over And Out (Ltd Edition Exclusive Blue Vinyl) Heavyweight LP by Rick Parfitt
Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in Heavyweight LP from Rick Parfitt Includes download code for Ash HowesCommercial album mix.When the awful news broke on Christmas Eve 2016 that legendary rocker Rick Parfitt had passed, fans around the world were devastated that one of rock’s most iconic performers had been silenced. However, unknown to almost anyone, Rick had in fact virtually completed his first solo album whilst undergoing a period of recuperation after his heart attack in July. That album, poignantly titled ‘Over And Out’ will now be released on 23 March 2018 through earMUSIC. Featuring 10 brand new songs, including the title track that broke hearts anew when it was played at Rick’s funeral, this is an album of depth and passion. Created by Rick Parfitt and Producer Jo Webb, the record is a true labour of love and showcases the softer side of Rick as a writer, artist and performer away from the Quo maelstrom as well as the purest rock and roll sound of earlier Status Quo records. Despite the fact Rick Parfitt had finished recording his guitar and vocal parts, a recording session was planned to happen in February 2017. Certain tracks were not totally finished when Rick died. The call to help ensure that his work could be completed, so that the world could hear it was answered by musicians of the calibre of Queen’s Brian May and Muse’s Chris Wolstenholme, both of whom were close to Rick. Rick’s son, Rick Parfitt Jnr, was also involved in the creative process, as were John “Rhino” Edwards and Alan Lancaster, amongst many others. All of those involved in completing the songs that Rick had written for ‘Over And Out’ have done him proud in bringing his vision to fruition.Rickacutes music always featured two elements the raw rock and roll sound and a great passion for melodies. “Over And Out” offers the best of both worlds It has been recorded and written with a bandacutes spirit between Rick and Jo. They shared various mixes, reflecting the sound of the sessions and the spirit that was present in the “room”The album has also been mixed by top producer Ash Howes, offering a different view on the songs but also leaving a dilemma open for interpretation, which one would Rick prefer The polished, big sounding mixes or the original band mixes, raw and full of musical honesty Those who were close enough to him over the years would probably say… “both”. This is why the album will be available in its “finished” form, but also as a raw and pure version, for the fans of the rockier side of Rickacutes music in special collectoracutes editions.

Kvitravn Double Vinyl Double Heavyweight LP by Wardruna
Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in Heavyweight LP from Wardruna Deluxe Heavyweight Vinyl Gatefold Sleeve Features Deluxe 12 Page Artwork Booklet Standard Black VinylMasterful Norwegian storytellers Wardruna reveal the release date and title of their brandnew album, Kvitravn, incoming on Sony MusicColumbia Germany for the world partnering with Music for Nations for the UK, on 5th June.Following an intensive period in the studio, Kvitravn musically continues where the Runaljod trilogy left off, yet it marks a distinct evolution in Wardrunas unique sound. In a rich musical tapestry, Wardruna use a broad selection of both traditional and historical instruments such as Kraviklyre, Trossingenlyre, Taglharpa, Sootharp, Langeleik, Crwth, Goathorn, Lur, Bronzelur, flute, Moraharpa, and the record also features guest appearances by a small group of prominent traditional singers, spearheaded by Kirsten Braringten Berg, one of the most important custodians of Norwegian traditional song. Throughout eleven songs, Kvitravn discusses Northern sorcery, spiritanimals, shadows, nature and animism, the wisdom and meanings of certain myths, various Norse spiritual concepts, and the relation between sage and songs.About the new album, Wardruna founder Einar Selvik reveals, To recite and copy the past is not very difficult, but to understand and integrate ancient thoughts, tools and methods with real purpose into a creation that is relevant to the modern era is truly challenging and remains our prime goal in our work He continues, although the album carries a variant of my own totemic artist name, it has, in this context, little to do with me but rather refers to the symbolism and legends of sacred white animals found in Nordic and other cultures all over the world. These highly regarded ghostly creatures, whether a raven, snake, bear, moose, reindeer, elephant or lion are in animist traditions seen as prophetic, divine messengers, and guardians representing renewal, purity and a bridge between worlds”.Wardruna have carved a rich, polyphonic and dramatic musical landscape that honours the ancient past without gimmick, whilst simultaneously illuminating meaningful expressions of Norse tradition through intrinsically detailed contemporary composition. Beyond genre, theirs is a sound that must be truly experienced.
