"Hey Joe", "Foxey Lady", "Purple Haze" and "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" have been in Hendrix's concert repertoire since he first recorded them."Machine Gun" was released two months earlier on the live Band of Gypsys album, and "Hey Baby (New Rising Sun)" was in development for his planned fourth studio album.

BENNY GOODMAN QUARTET MADE IN JAPAN -1965-THE FIRST UK-CAPITOL-T2282 PRESS. A rare British original of the iconic album. In 1962, he toured widely in the USSR, gave concerts with his jazz band in Moscow (twice), Leningrad, Kiev, Tbilisi, Tashkent. In an interview, he told reporters that he was glad that the ban on jazz in the USSR had been lifted. The first performance took place on May 30 and, as a result of this trip, the Benny Goodman concert album was released in Moscow. In 1963, the RCA Victor studio hosted a reunion of the legendary Benny Goodman quartet of the 1930s (Goodman himself, Gene Krupa, Teddy Wilson and Lionel Hampton), and a year later the album recorded by them (called "Together Again!") again became one of the most popular albums and gave impetus to new ones on tour to Asia. The album Made in japan was the result of these tours. Recordings of some works of academic music (in particular, sonatas for clarinet and piano by Francis Poulenc together with Leonard Bernstein, as well as music by Bernstein himself, Johannes Brahms, Aaron Copland and Claude Debussy) belong to the same period of creativity. ...more

The third studio album by the German electronic band Kraftwerk. It was released in October 1973 on Philips. In it, the band moved towards their signature electronic sound.. In 1975, it reached number 160 on the US Top 200 Albums chart.

The record included a "musical" poster with caricatures of Emil Schult, who played the electric violin live with the band (although he does not appear on the album recordings).
