Little Big Town ,

is an American country music vocal group. Founded in 1998, the group has comprised the same four members since its inception: Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Jimi Westbrook, and Phillip Sweet. The quartet’s musical style relies heavily on four-part vocal harmonies, with all four members alternating as lead singers. Westbrook and Sweet also play rhythm guitar.

After a recording deal with the Mercury Nashville Records label which produced no singles or albums, Little Big Town released their self-titled debut on Monument Records in 2002. It produced two minor country chart singles before the group left the label. By 2005, the group had been signed to Equity Music Group, an independent record label owned by Clint Black. Their second album, The Road to Here, was released that year. Certified platinum in the U.S., it produced consecutive Top Ten singles on the country charts in “Boondocks” and “Bring It On Home”. A Place to Land is the title of their third album, released in 2007. This album’s first single, “I’m with the Band”, was a Top 40 hit on the country charts. Shortly after its release, the group was transferred to Capitol Records Nashville, which acquired the rights to A Place to Land and released “Fine Line” and “Good Lord Willing” as its second and third singles, respectively. The latter song is new to the re-release.

Little Big Town have charted twelve songs on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. This figure includes a Christmas single which was made available only as a download, and a live cover of “Life in a Northern Town” (along with Sugarland and Jake Owen) which charted in 2008 based on unsolicited airplay.

Little Big Town released their fourth studio album, The Reason Why, on August 24, 2010 via Capitol Nashville. ….Read More

Ozzy Osbourne ,

John Michael “Ozzy” Osbourne (born 3 December 1948) is an English singer-songwriter whose career has spanned five decades.

Osbourne initially rose to prominence as lead vocalist of the pioneering English heavy metal band Black Sabbath, a band whose radically different, intentionally dark, doom sound spearheaded the heavy metal genre. In his subsequent solo career Osbourne achieved a multi-platinum status in addition to the one he had earned with Black Sabbath. These things are what led Osbourne to become known as the “Godfather of Heavy Metal”. Osbourne is ranked 8th on Hit Parader’s list of the 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Vocalists of all time. It was during his Sabbath days (because of their dark style of music, not because he was a satanist) that Osbourne became known as the “Prince of Darkness.” Osbourne has over 15 tattoos, the most famous of which are the letters O-Z-Z-Y across the knuckles of his left hand. This was his first tattoo, created himself with a sewing needle and pencil lead. ….Read More

Les Prêtres – Spiritus Dei ,

Courant 2009, Mgr Jean-Michel di Falco Léandri, évêque du diocèse de Gap et d’Embrun, cherche les financements de deux grands projets qui lui tiennent particulièrement à cœur : le soutien financier d’une école à Madagascar et l’édification d’une nouvelle église au sanctuaire Notre-Dame du Laus, près de Gap.

Afin de réunir les fonds nécessaires, Mgr Jean-Michel di Falco Léandri, inspiré par le phénomène The Priests, choisit de réunir deux prêtres et un séminariste : le Père Jean Michel Bardet, le Père Charles Troesch et le séminariste Dinh Nguyen. C’est ainsi qu’est né l’album Spiritus Dei : 14 titres au message universel alliant musique sacrée, grands standards et un titre original. “Il faudra leur dire” – “I Believe” (ERA) – “Alleluia” (Leonard Cohen) – “Amazing Grace” – “Quand on a que l’amour” – “Il est né le Divin Enfant” – “Minuit Chrétien” – “Ave Verum” – “Ave Maria” – “Sarabande” (Haendel, thème de la BOF Barry Lyndon) – “Je crois en toi” (inédit) – “L’Envie d’aimer”…

Spiritus Dei nous emporte dans un univers envoûtant où se mêlent chœurs, cordes et programmations d’aujourd’hui ; un univers sur mesure pour trois voix oscillant entre force et émotion, trois voix porteuses d’un message d’amour, de générosité, de rassemblement et de partage, trois voix pour un album aussi singulier qu’intemporel.

Lead vocalist Klaus Meine had to undergo surgery on his vocal cords during the writing of the album and it was uncertain whether he would be able to record it. Demos of the material were recorded with Don Dokken as vocalist; however none of those recordings are featured on the album.

Rudolf Schenker could not choose between his guitar solos on “China White”, so the US and European releases differed in this small detail.

A self-portrait of artist Gottfried Helnwein is featured on the cover of the album. Rudolf Schenker portrays this character in the “No One Like You” music video. ….Read More
