	Everything Is Alive, Everything Is Breathing, Nothing Is Dead And Nothing Is Bleeding Colored Vinyl - New - B0030668-01 Sealed 2019 vinyl pressing. Can't confirm colour variant; Small split in innersleeve and shrink at opening gives impression that it is the Metallic Silver. "When Josh Scogin left his position as lead singer for the alternative metal band Norma Jean in 2002, fans wondered where he would eventually end up. The answer is Scogin's own band the Chariot, who offer a truly ferocious dose of metalcore on their debut album, Everything Is Alive, Everything Is Breathing, Nothing Is Dead and Nothing Is Bleeding. Musically, no prisoners are taken on this 2004 release; Scogin and his equally unforgiving colleagues favor the sort of harshness, brutality and suffocating density that metalcore is known for. An exercise in sensory assault for the sake of sensory assault, this 27-minute CD sounds like the soundtrack to hell. Ah, but here's the punchline: The Chariot, like Norma Jean, is a Christian band -- and this album's lyrics, for all their angst, are meant to be uplifting rather than nihilistic. Some will ask, "How can a band that sounds so brutal be promoting spirituality?" But truth be told, there is nothing in the Bible, the Holy Koran or the Bhagavad-Gita that specifies what a religious band has to sound like -- and if a band wants to use metalcore to promote Christianity, Judaism, Islam or Buddhism (in the Chariot's case, Christianity), there is no reason not to. The Chariot's stream-of-consciousness lyrics are not preachy; rather, Scogin takes a painful look at the world around him and concludes that Christianity is the remedy. Most of the time, Scogin screams in English, but he detours into some Spanish lyrics on "Yellow Dress, Locked Knees," declaring, "Jesus, yo quiero que este mundo te conosca." Translation: Jesus, I want this world to know you. But because this album is so bonecrushing musically, one has to pay very close attention to pick up the Christian references. An above-average contribution to metalcore, Everything Is Alive demonstrates that Christian headbangers can be every bit as bombastic as their secular counterparts."

The record’s lead single, "Popsicle Toes," became a minor hit and remains one of his best-known songs to this day, helping to introduce a wider audience to his understated, conversational vocal delivery and clever wordplay. ... more

	Greatest Hits (& Some That Will Be) Used - LP - KC2 37542 1981 2LP Original Housed In A Gatefold Jacket. Features Some Previously Unreleased Tracks. Very Light Cover Wear, VG+. "Greatest Hits (& Some That Will Be) Was Released In The Fall Of 1981, Summarizing A Remarkable Seven-year Stretch Of Extraordinary Success That Began When The Iconoclastic Red Headed Stranger, Willie Nelson's First Album For Columbia, Became A Smash Hit Not Long After Its 1975 Release. From That Point On, Nelson Became An American Popular Music Icon And A Fixture At The Top Of The Country Charts, Something That Was All The More Remarkable Because He Rarely Played It Safe: He Sang Pop Standards, Jammed Like The Grateful Dead, Recorded Tributes To Heroes Like Lefty Frizzell, And Did Duet Albums With Both Mentor Ray Price And Fellow Maverick Leon Russell. It Was A Far-ranging, Unpredictable Body Of Work, With Each Individual Album Retaining Its Own Distinctive Character, And Greatest Hits Manages To Pull Off The Nifty Trick Of Making Sense Of These Records In Two Records (Now One Cd) And 20 Songs. Sequenced Like A Set List, Not According To Strict Chronological Order, The Collection Manages To Hit All The Major Singles, But Does So Judiciously, Making Sure Each Of The Records And Musical Moods Get Equal Pay. So, There Is No Overdose Of Stardust Material, And Even Album Tracks Like A Moving Version Of "Look What Thoughts Will Do" Get A Hearing. Consequently, This Greatest Hits Is Far More Than A Mere Recitation Of Familiar Items. It Is Something Much Better -- A Rounded, Full-bodied Portrait Of Willie In All Of His Idiosyncratic Spleandor, Which Is About As Much As Could Be Asked From A Hits Collection. And That's Why It's Worth Having, Not Just As An Introduction, But Just As A Splendid Listen On Its Own Terms." All Music Guide – Stephen Thomas Erlewine. ... more

	Violin Concerto In D Major Used - LP - SP 8512 1960 Full Dimensional Stereo Original. Some surface noise. Top seam split and ware on the bottom. Nathan Milstein, Violin; William Steinberg Conducting The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. The Violin Concerto in D Major was composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky between March and April 1878. It was premiered on December 4, 1881, in Vienna, with violinist Adolf Brodsky and conducted by Hans Richter. The concerto was initially criticized for being overly difficult for the soloist and not adhering to traditional concerto structure. It wasn't until the 20th century that the concerto gained widespread popularity, thanks in part to the performances of virtuoso violinists like Jascha Heifetz and David Oistrakh. In 1945, violinist Nathan Milstein recorded the concerto with the Philadelphia Orchestra under the direction of Eugene Ormandy. This recording is now considered a classic interpretation of the work and is highly regarded by critics and music lovers alike. Milstein's recording was re-released several times over the years, including in 1991 as part of a box set of Tchaikovsky's complete works for violin and orchestra. ... more
