Hi Everyone,

This week covers new releases for mainly the 7th of November, yesterday…all my troubles…

The biggest release is most likely going to be PINK FLOYD “the endless river” which is available across four formats, CD, CD/DVD, CD/BLURAY and double LP.

This album, as a lot of ye would know already, is mainly taken from nearly 100 unused recordings of “the division bell” record, which Dave Gilmour and Nick Mason reworked together over a 12 month period from summer 2013.

It is an instrumental record with only one vocal track I believe.

I am reading Nick Mason’s book at the moment actually and really enjoying it.

A very dry humor, very witty and engaging….on his first meeting with the bould Roger (Waters), “Roger had accosted Rick Wright, who was also a student in our class, and asked him for a cigarette, a request Rick turned down point blank. This was an early sign of Rick’s legendary generosity.” (Same school of generosity as Robert Plant it would seem)

Speaking of generosity, I emailed the record company about the price of the new FLOYD record, in the hope they might do better on it, which would mean anyone who buys it, would also do better on it.

My request was turned down point blank also, along the lines of “higher royalty and manufacturing costs” so Nick maybe those in glasshouses and all that!

35 euro is the price, (very competitive, believe it or not) but I reckon you would be surprised to hear what’s left when Enda and the boys get their 23% and i pay the record company their dues.

They are taking the piss, 35 euro is too dear, (I reckon 40 euro in most retailers), and manufacturing costs my arse, same as with all other double LPs.

“I’m all right Jack; keep your hands off my stack”

Smaller labels, DOMINO, NUCLEAR BLAST, 4AD, WARP and loads more small labels produce double LPs to retail at 20 euro….picture discs, colored Vinyl, the whole shooting gallery.

It’s about the 30,000 die hard Floyd fans whom the record company knows WILL buy the record, so let’s get what we can for it….age old problem….wrong attitude.

Anyway, as Forrest Gump would say, that’s about all I have to say on that!

Although, p.s I love Floyd!!!!

Warner also have the new RUMER CD and LP, her third record, really is like listening to Karen Carpenter…lovely listen though to be fair.

Eagles first 6 LPs reissued.

Monty Python “ONE DOWN, FIVE TO GO” live show also out through Warner.

A new DOORS DVD out also on the 7th November, “ a feast of friends” originally only seen in a few cinemas in 1968, so first real release.

I am probably most partial to THE DOORS over all, I think their six studio albums from 67 to 71 would stand up against any other band’s and their live albums were incredible also.

Times have changed so much in the music industry, a notably change for me this century is the lack of mega stadium filling bands.

With the exception of, arguably the ARCTIC MONKEYS, and would or could they fill Pairc ui Chaoimh ??

Where are the stadium filling bands gone (new bands), or have I forgotten someone obvious? (Muse Ray)

All previous decades, would have had at least four or five mega bands…..90’s probably the weakest, Oasis and Radiohead only id suggest.

Is it just coincidence, that this century has seen the real emergence of reality music shows?

Some major record companies get a quick buck but generally there is zero substance and longevity these shows.

Simply put, would the likes of U2, PINK FLOYD, and QUEEN have survived with a major record company after their first couple of album releases in today’s world?

Why would they, when we can make a quick easy buck from Leon Jackson or whoever is folly at the moment.

Anyway….Warner also has new albums from KILL IT KID and THE KNIFE PARTY.

SONY has the new FOO FIGHTERS record for worldwide release on Monday the 10th of November.

Garth Brook’s new material is also on worldwide release that same day.

New release day in Ireland is nearly always on a Friday, it is the Monday after in the UK, and a Tuesday stateside (quietest shopping day there, so to entice customers in)

But with the biggies, they get a worldwide release date, so the FOO’s are a biggie (a really good band so no problem at all with that, don’t think they would sell out the Pairc though?)

TAYLOR SWIFT had a worldwide release last Monday the 27th and ONE DIRECTION have a worldwide release on Monday the 17th of November.

Starting to see my point, the money is being spent on marketing and not on up and coming bands…..how many nights was OD in Croke Park.

On the FOO’s, DAVE GROHL is a real musicians man and really trying to keep the thing going….sound matters to Mr. Grohl so hats off to him for being proactive in helping musicians, labels, recording studios and record shops.

A good friend of the shop was at the infamous SONIC YOUTH gig in Henry’s back in the day, he didn’t know who Nirvana were at the time, all he remembers about the Nirvana experience was there was a really tall bassist with a DINOSAUR JR tee shirt on, that the drummer started playing SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY and the singer slagged him off and the crowd roared….

Ye will see there is a SPRINGSTEEN VINYL and CD box set on the 14th November, which is expensive, so if anyone wants to give me a nod for one, then greatly appreciated, just let me know.

UNIVERSAL have a new Queen greatest hits thingy, with three new tracks including one with MICHAEL JACKSON.

IMELDA MAY new album “tribal” gets a Vinyl release and there are vinyl reissues from T Rex and BRYAN ADAMS.

PIAS have new albums from ADRIAN CROWLEY and BRYAN FERRY as well as reissues from THE AFGHAN WHIGS, CARCASS and the next three in the brilliant NICK CAVE Vinyl reissues.

Anyways,

Sin e,

Thanks to those who read this,

Hi Everyone,

This week’s newsletter is mainly centred around releases for Friday the 31st of October.

Warner have the new DAMIEN RICE album, his third, out on that day.

Damien is certainly not prolific with his records but ( in my opinion) the last two were excellent.

Is it three albums in 12 years, was “O” released in 2002….

Damien seems to be his own man in the music industry ( met him and the boys from Bell X 1 maybe 15 years or more ago when there then band Juniper were in one of the Golden Discs for a signing, quite fella is my only memory to be honest)

I think it was the Polygram label who had signed Juniper on a six album deal,( i remember huge talk about them in the industry at the time, next U2 and all that usual blah) im sure they only released a couple of singles though and Damien wanted to release a certain single and the record company said no way Jose, were the boss of you now, so Damien said im gone lads and left the band.

He released “O” on his own label, which was a bold step at the time especially in Ireland. ( the catologue number on the side of the album is DRMOO2CD….Damien Rice Music)

He then sold the album to a distribuator, reaping a lot more financial rewards plus having total control….2 MILLION COPIES of “ 0” sold globally….id say the boy done well out of it, no need to slave after that.

If you can do it on your own label, it is a good way to go if you want to reap some benefits from selling the music, but you must have a key ingredient , you must be really really good.

First two albums were on his own label, he is signed to Atlantic now through Warner….probably was offered a nice chunk of change and full control.

Anyways, the new album is out on the 31st, the Music Zone corporation will be retailing the CD at 15 euro and the LP at 23 euro whereas our little friends Amazon are 12 and 22 sterling…..# supportlocal…….blatant sales pitch!!

Warner also for the 31st have the new NEIL YOUNG CD “ STORYTONE”, the LP is not out till the 15th of December.

I know you think i’ve being on your case brother recently, but you are still one of the all time greats.

The new one is with a 92 piece orchestra, juries out for me for now on this until i hear a bit more.

Sad to hear yourself and Croz still not getting on to well….he claims your hanging out now with “ a purely poisonous predator” and talk is you are done with him forever.

Speaking of juries, Led Zeppelin are finally going to be sued ( being accused for years) by the band Spirit whom Zeppelin supported for a while in the late sixties.

Spirit claim that Jimmy Page took a big axe to their track “taurus” and brought it home for himself and put it as the intro to “stairway to heaven”

Stairway is one of the biggest songs in history, the songs net worth estimated at 360 million dollars, being played over 3 and a half million times on the radio…..if you put it on now for that amount of plays, it would be over in 2045!!

All musicians take bits from other musicians but when there worth 360 mill !!!…..” theres a pagey who knows, all that…”

Warner also have a new ROLLING STONES reissue “ hampton coliseum live 1981” across 4 formats and DVDs by ERIC CLAPTON and GENESIS.

Sony have the BOB DYLAN and THE BAND complete “ basement tapes” for Friday the 31st also.

Some would say these recordings changed the face of popular music forever , originally released 8 years after they were recorded in 1967 soon after Bob fell off his bike and was recuperating!!

Not a huge Dylan fan myself, but do really like some stuff including this…..the band were just great.

See the link below for more info and a class song….

http://www.esquire.com/blogs/culture/bob-dylan-the-band-dress-it-up

We are 75 euro for the LP set, 20 for the double CD and 120 for the CD box set………..

SONY also has a debut album by ASH front man TIM WHEELER and a live CD/DVD from Garth Brooks (is it to soon to mention the war?)….there’s more from GARTH in the next week or two.

Universal for 31 October has a new SIMPLE MINDS album, a few WINGS reissues “at the speed of sound” and “Venus and mars” and a GUNS N ROSES 3D concert “appetite for democracy” across four formats.

Universal also have the new ANDRE RIEU CD/DVD BOX SET PACK………15 euro.

Mr. Rieu is a money making machine, grossing on average 70 million dollars a year over the last six years from concerts , merch, CDs and DVD’S.( BONO would be proud of that!!)

Bit of a fun link next sent to me from one of ye guys to share with the rest of ye like…

I’ll say very little except Christ man you got rid of some great records….enjoy.

http://www.rollingstone.com/music/videos/see-the-beatles-bob-dylan-beatbox-in-stunning-innovative-video-20141021

PIAS have the new MACHINE HEAD album “BLOODSTONE AND DIAMONDS” for the 7^th November as well as the some brilliant reissues by THE SMALL FACES.

MUSIC ON VINYL have the expanded RORY GALLAGHER 3LP “ IRISH TOUR” for late November as well as DYLAN’S “ MODERN TIMES” and an ANIMALS “ COMPLETE” 3 LP set.

ESSENTIAL has the new and final?? ROYSKOPP album “the inevitable end” on November 7.

If you are not one of the cherished few who receive this newsletter via email every week and are reading this elsewhere pop me an email raymusiczone@gmail.com if you would like to receive it.

Lastly, if any of ye have 5 minutes to spare, says he at 2.21, the lads and ladies from CIT marketing are doing a project on the shop and the whole music retail game and would really appreciate some quick feedback, so if you can spare a few minutes it would be great, if you could answer the linked survey….big thanks to those who can.

Hi Everyone,

This week’s newsletter generally covers releases for the 24^th October.

Arguably the biggest release for the 24^th is on swansong/Atlantic, through Warner, the remastered editions of LED ZEPPELIN “4” or untitled or 4 symbols or the one with stairway to heaven on it, and the fifth Zeppelin album “houses of the holy”.

Both of these are available across 5 formats, CD, DOUBLE CD, LP, DOUBLE LP and a super douper deluxe boxy thingy including the whole shooting gallery and some.

Zepp 4 is the second biggest selling album in America, selling 23 million copies behind Michael Jackson’s “THRILLER” and followed closely by Pink Floyd’s “dark side of the moon”.

U2 are Ireland’s highest entry here, at surprisingly 73^rd on the list with just less than 9 million copies for “the Joshua tree”.

Boston” s debut record is 8^th on the list with nearly 18 million copies sold…..i can’t remember the last time someone asked me for a Boston CD! (More than a feeling was the biggest single from that album if that can jog your memory!)

Warner also for the 24^th have the next blast of IRON MAIDEN Vinyl reissues including six 7” singles and “piece of mind”, “powerslave” and “life after death” LPs.

They also have OBITUARY’s new album (metal) and some YES and XTC reissues on the DGM label.

The DGM label was founded by Robert Fripp of KING CRIMSON fame and the label aims “to be a model of ethical business in an industry founded on exploitation, oiled by deceit, riven with theft and fuelled by greed”.

Fair play to you Robert boy, no mincing of words there, had a few bad dates I’d say as well.

Speaking of bad dates…..on Warner also for the 24^th is a new release by PEGI YOUNG, wife of, or now soon to be ex wife of Neil.

Neil filed for divorce back in the late summer, I was saddened when I heard it, I would imagine they have being through a pile of stuff together, highs and lows, caring for their son Ben, who has severe cerebral palsy, amongst a multitude of other things.

His musical companion and friend (or maybe old friend now) David Crosby said of the break up “there is nothing worse than seeing real love being thrown in the gutter”.

Rumour has it ( this is the bad date reference) that he is knocking around with Darryl Hannah of the movie “ splash” fame, in their quest to save the planet, oh and the farmers.

Rumour also has it they are going to build a ranch on all that land he bought in Leitrim in the boom, with amble room to park all those gas guzzling buses he had in Cork Airport when he done the gig down da marquee, which to be fair was spine tingling at times.

Go back on the gargle Neil and the ….., midlife crises begin now at 70!

What about the Irish game the other night, the job, what a difference a minute makes….we would have being pure rubbish ( close enough to the truth??) to have now taken a point off the world champions in their own backyard.

Point of note, in my opinion, and this is happy Ray, the RTE panel afterwards said it was a moment of magic from Wes Hoolahan that unlocked the German defense, surely that cross was well over hit ( not picking on you Wes cos you’re an ex Shels player! I would have championed you’re cause for a good while) but far from a moment of magic, Jeff Hendrick done great to get it back, and in fairness to Johno it was a quality finish….he’s being doing it for years into his own goal, so he had the work put in.

Sorry, cheap blow…..great result, great goal.

On the footy theme for another second, huge best wishes to our home town team Cork City F.C, a big couple of weeks for them.

They have done fantastically well so far no matter what happens, I was a firm supporter a few years back, season ticket and all for a few years….always a good night out, great Cork humour and banter and songs “he is god, he is god, he has risen from the shed and he is god, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess, that John O Flynn is god”…..best of luck CCFC.

Anyway, back to the music,

Universal have the new Taylor Swift album for worldwide release on the 27^th October.

A deluxe version of the RIPTIDE Movement’s excellent album also out on the 24^th.

ANNIE LENNOX has a new one and the last four SIOUXSIE AND THE BANSHEES CDs get the remastered treatment.

There are also lovely Vinyl boxsets of ABBA’s eight studio albums and CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL seven studio albums.

PIAS for the 31^st October has the Coloured vinyl release of BASEMENT JAXX’s “singles” LP , some MODEST MOUSE and SLEATER- KINNEY LP reissues.

The FLAMING LIPS have a SGT PEPPERS tribute album…..bit iffy I would say……guests on it include MOBY, MILEY CYRUS and MY MORNING JACKET.

On the whole sgt peppers thing, greatest album of all time?

Personally, it would not be my favorite Beatles album…..abbey road, white album and probably revolver maybe even rubber soul would top it….for me.

Having said that, “a day in the life’ is most possibly my favorite Beatles song, as I said here before I love the Lennon/ McCartney contrast in songwriting ( ala the white album, McCartney’s “ Martha my dear”. his song about his sheepdog followed by Lennon’s “ im so tired” where he lights another cigarette and curses Sir Walter Raleigh (whom brought tobacco into Europe) calling him “ such a stupid geit” ….1967/68 this was.

“A DAY IN THE LIFE” was two separate songs by the two boys merged into one….Lennon on about the heir to the Guinness throne breaking a red light and smashing into a parked car, which killed him, “he blew his mind out in a car” ….McCartney’s on about a normal guy’s day “woke up, got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head”….great song and yes great cover but best album ever….

Lastly on PIAS, 18 year old Derry girl Bridie Monds- Watson aka SOAK has being signed to Rough Trade….talented multi instrumentalist girl by all accounts so hopefully one for the future.

Sony has not much for the 24^th….MALLORY KNOX, CAT STEVENS and the latest BBC LIVE LOUNGE the main ones.

MUSIC ON VINYL has a BUZZCOCKS LP for the 17^th November.

JOHN SPILLANE’S NEW ALBUM OUT TOMORROW and there is a free gig in Passage GAA Hall tomorrow night @ 8.30.

We in the Music Zone corporation have being listening to in the past week and really enjoying Johnny Marr, Ben Howard, Rory’s Irish tour box set and local bands Shaker Hymn, Raising Jupiter and Elastic Sleep.

Sin e for this week,

Hi Everyone,

Hope you’re all good.

Quite a bit for me to ramble on about,

We will start with Universals releases for Friday the 10th October.

So the much talked about( not exactly for musical reasons) U2 album got its physical release Friday the 10th of October….” where the trees are stripped bare, of all they wear, what do I care”

Does Bono want to change the trees lyric to retailers??

The ERA (entertainment retailers association) seem to think so, saying the U2 stunt “devalues music and is as bad as piracy”

What’s my take on it as an indie music retailer….well as I said a few weeks back I think it was a brilliant marketing and economic ploy by U2….they need the cash, I believe they bought land in Leitrim with Jack and Neil in the boom.

I think it was a ploy to get people talking about them/the album, and I think people will see it for that….so not so sure about the devaluing of music….now if it sets a trend then that’s a different sceal.

As for the piracy issue, it’s a time old problem in this game, I remember when I was a young fella, (actually change that, a younger fella) I used listen to Fanning with two fingers on the play and record buttons… “ah dave man, stop talking through the intro” ….i believe this grows your love and appetite for music and as you get older you realize people have sweated tears to get everything as good as possible, from cover to track listing to the music itself and they should be paid.

Unfortunately though, the musicians don’t get much Johnny cash for album sales.

In an ideal world, there would be no middlemen like me, and the record label, and the 20 quid for the record will just go straight to the musicians.

But, I believe, without record labels, some exceptional bands would never see the light of day in the future, new great bands of the future could get lost in the internet and twitter fog, so we need the good record labels to keep sifting through the fog and to choose wisely.

As for record shop owners, we are a physical presence for all these bands/ artists….. let people hear stuff, even by accident, “what’s that you have on?” ….we need to be good listeners…., source awkward stuff,….. share information….., tell ye guys about really good local bands like John Blek and the Rats, the Shaker Hymn, Elastic Sleep, the Vincents…help them get through the fog to be heard……I think we serve a worthwhile purpose…..i would be interested in anyone’s thoughts on this.

As Forrest Gump might say…

And as for the U2 ploy, no doubt it will affect our sales of the album, but sure what can you do….

Going back to the piracy….some people do and some people don’t….but if you are going to buy the U2 album (here is the unashamed sales plug!!!) we are 17 euro for the deluxe CD and 27 euro for the double LP….the beast in the sky is 25 sterling for the LP and 13 sterling for deluxe CD.

U2 album cover above….Larry with his 16 year old son I believe….not a great cover really in my opinion….people will talk about it though, no doubt.

—————————->>>>

Universal also have the DELORENTOS new album (good band) LP not out till the 24th.

Warner for the 10th Oct have a blast of IRON MAIDEN 7” and the first 3 LPs and LP box set….limited….just one pressing only…..so im told anyway….

Also, EAGLE VISION through WARNER are doing a RORY GALLAGHER DVD box set for 17 yo yos….live in cork, Irish tour and ghost blues documentary….for those who like and don’t have, this is a great price for the 3 DVDs.

SONY has an OZZY OSBOURNE collection out, MR L. COHEN latest LP now also, and Sony also have a new album by PINK and CITY AND COLOUR together, getting rave reviews in America.

Pink in my opinion is one of the most credible pop stars?? this century ??…..One of the top female artists of recent years.

PIAS releases for the 17th October….there are a few of note in my opinion.

MARK LANEGAN BAND new one, SCOTT WALKER & SUNNO))) new one, THESE NEW PURITIANS expanded live version with orchestra, of “field of reeds”….excellent, ANTHRAX CD/DVD job, NIGHTMARES ON WAX Vinyl reissues including “smokers delight” and new album from THURSTON MOORE…..i suppose ye were all in HENRYS that summers night in 91 when NIRVANA supported SONIC YOUTH….met Kurt smoking on the stairs on the way to the jacks……read a book some years back by Charles Cross I think his name was, about Mr. Cobain , where there was a page or two about Kurt’s visit to the rebel city….he made a repeated point about how Kurt really liked the place and felt at home here….dowtcha Kurt boy!!

BERTUS live LP offer attached including Fleetwood Mac, Stevie ray Vaughan, miles Davis, frank black and mike Bloomfield amongst others.

Music on Vinyl releases for the 20th and 27th of October including THE FRAMES, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT and the LEONARD COHEN tribute “im your fan”.

A bit on the local scene to finish,

Wasted Space’s debut, self-titled 5-track EP is now in stock in the store on CD. The lads are a Pop-Punk band from Carrigaline, who have created a fair bit of hype for themselves around the Cork area through hard gigging. Very strong EP, with some great, catchy tracks! Well worth a check out, and keep an eye peeled for the lads playing around the city, well worth going to see, they put on a great performance. The EP is on the shelves for 5 quid!

Also in store today is the fantastic double AA sided 7’ Vinyl single by STEVIE G and CHRISTINA UNDERWOOD of “ Deep Down South” and “Not About That”…..limited numbered copies, beautifully packaged….treat yourself to this soul bliss for just 6 bucks……Stevie and Christina done a PA in the shop for Culture Night and have being great supporters of the shop in recent months.

Sin e anyway for this week,

Thanks for reading….if you did.

Ray.

p.s i hope Zach and Lily sleep for a few more hours or there may a cranky man in the shop tomorrow….anyway….slan.

Hi Everyone,

Releases attached mainly for the 17th October.

We will start with Universal who has Ben Howard’s second record.

This one could well explode into one of the biggest selling records of 2015, mercury winner potentially.

It can often be the case that albums ignite 6/12 months after release due to word of mouth amongst the general public who would normally not buy records.

This has the potential to do just that.

Signed to the island label that always had great indie folk artists on their books (NICK DRAKE, JOHN MARTYN) this record is musically excellent but maybe lyrically a tad weak, but could well have mass appeal.

Not helping his cause to crossover to main mainstream is releasing a first single that is nearly 8 minutes long, as Billy Joel sang “ if you want to make a hit, you got to make it fit, so they cut it down to 3.05” so Ben can’t see 96FM playing that one!!

Don’t get me started on our local radio stations and their support of local music because that’s a story for another day.

Ben is the bulb off Mendieta, the Spanish footballer, who scored the killer penalty in the 2002 world cup….if Given had stayed put, had a cup of tea and a smoke, we could have being through to the quarters against, was it the soccer super power South Korea….ah Roy what could have been…

New Neil Diamond from Uni also out and a rack of LP reissues including Shelby Lynn’s Grammy winning debut album ( first time on Vinyl) Christopher Cross, IAN GILLAN & TONY IOMMI, NINA SIMONE, OSCAR PETERSEN and GETZ & GILBERTO.

New Andrea Bocelli CD also out on the 17th.

PIAS for the 24th October have the first of the NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS Vinyl reissues which include “from here to eternity”, “the firstborn is dead” (a horrible title you would think, but it is a reference to a quote by a doctor about ELVIS AARON PRESLEY”S identical stillborn older twin, Jesse) and “your Funeral….my trial”

I don’t know why they skipped the third album “kicking against the pricks”, maybe it is coming in another batch…. Roy probably knows…..

PIAS also have LP reissues of SWANS debut “filth” from 1983 and some MODEST MOUSE reissues as well as a new one from CROBAT.

Sony has the RORY GALLAGHER Irish tour box set….7 CDs and a DVD I think out on the 17th October…..40 euro.

I was aged 0 when that tour was on so didn’t make it….never saw Rory (sadly sadly)……and to the folks that did see that tour (to cheer myself up) you will be in old folks home long before me watching ANDRE RIEU DVDs!! So there for ya.

Wonder would 96 FM have played Rory….hah.

Sony also has a PADDY CASEY best of….very good Irish singer songwriter and a new gavin BUSH album.

Warner has the new SLIPKNOT album, deluxe CD and double green LP which is exclusive to little green indie shops like me.

Also, LINKIN PARKs new one on LP, a STATUS QUO acoustic album and a nice priced B.B KING DVD.

MUSIC ON VINYL releases attached for 3rd and 10th November including ELVIS COSTELLO, NICO and KEB MO.

PROPER has a new BILLY IDOL album and an early early PINK FLOYD CD/DVD.

NICK KELLY from fat lady sings has a new album also attached.

On the local scene, JOHN SPILLANE has a new album out on the 17th October “the man who came in from the dark”.

John is launching the album in PASSAGE GAA CLUB on Friday the 17th at 8.30…..all welcome…free admission…free gig.

John has always being a friend to the shop and we wish him all the best for the new record.

We still have copies of THE SHAKER HYMN and RAISING JUPITER albums in store.

RJ’s album is as good as most things in the American rock chart at the moment so do check them out.

And THE SHAKER HYMN album is better than most indie pop records in the UK at the moment…..HONESTLY WELL WORTH A LISTEN.

Music Zone really does rate it.

Anyway, don’t want to bore so

Sin e,

Thanks,

Ray
