Abbey Road is the eleventh studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. It is the last album the group started recording, although Let It Be was the last album completed before the band's break-up in April 1970.

First CD reissue of the album.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (often referred to simply as Sgt. Pepper) is the eighth studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. Released on 26 May 1967, Sgt. Pepper is regarded by musicologists as an early concept album that advanced the roles of sound composition, extended form, psychedelic imagery, record sleeves, and the producer in popular music. The album had an immediate cross-generational impact and was associated with numerous touchstones of the era's youth culture, such as fashion, drugs, mysticism, and a sense of optimism and empowerment. Critics lauded the album for its innovations in songwriting, production and graphic design, for bridging a cultural divide between popular music and high art, and for reflecting the interests of contemporary youth and the counterculture.

«Before Sgt. Pepper, no one seriously thought of rock music as actual art. That all changed in 1967, though, when John, Paul, George and Ringo (with "A Little Help" from their friend, producer George Martin) created an undeniable work of art which remains, after 30-plus years, one of the most influential albums of all time. From Lennon's evocative word/sound pictures (the trippy "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds," the carnival-like "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite") and McCartney's music hall-styled "When I'm 64," to Harrison's Eastern-leaning "Within You Without You," and the avant-garde mini-suite, "A Day in the Life," Sgt. Pepper was a milestone for both '60s music and popular culture. --Billy Altman»

This superb compilation, often called "the red album", brings together the majority of the Beatles' hits from the earlyto mid '60s. Consequently, it plays like an overview of thesome of the most popular and indelible rock songs of all time. From the "yeah, yeah, yeah"'s of "She Loves You" throughthe amped-up giddiness of "I Want to Hold Your Hand", the minor-key melodicism of "And I Love Her", and on to the chiming power pop of "Eight Days a Week" and the tweaky feedback of "I Feel Fine", these are the songs that turned the entireWestern world on its ear.
The second half of the set--inaddition to its phenomenal songs-- is interesting in that it charts the Beatles' move from straightforward pop toward the new chapter of rock the band would help script in the late '60s. After the expansive chords and slinky melodies of "Ticket to Ride", the band becomes alternately darkly introspective ("Yesterday") and looser and more groove-obsessed ("Drive My Car"), while trying on allegorical Dylan-inspired narratives ("Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)"), and happy-go-luck psychedelia ("Yellow Submarine"). These songs are part of our living, breathing cultural identity, and--as this collection reminds us--for good reason.

“我試圖閉上眼睛，眼淚又奪眶而出，直到枯竭；我能忘懷，人總是在面對背棄的誓約時不斷偽裝撒謊，可是我一心只求你不會被奪走，這欲望已達極限。我想守護你，亦如悲傷彷彿要滿溢，亦如此刻悲憫從希望中萌芽；如果你在黑暗中尋求一絲光芒,看,太陽的碎片,爬上了我的臉頰。昨晚我徹夜未眠,昨晚我徹夜未眠...”--竟然，这样一首熟悉的歌在半夜能够这样地打动我。
1987年1月,尾崎豐由紐約歸國,再度開展他的歌唱事業:7月1日開始名為"Teens Lining A Street"的演唱會,8月5日他在廣島和平Concert演出。之后在同年12月尾崎因違反"覺醒劑取締法"被捕.1988年2月22日,尾崎被釋放.同年6月21日,12 Inch Single"太陽の破片"發售,上年的被捕並沒有影響尾崎作为艺人的事業,這在日本來說可說是異例.
85年到2004年日本Oricon年度单曲排行榜中的排名：26 25.1 太陽の破片（12インチ），尾崎豊。尾崎在舞台上演绎的这首《太陽の破片》简直就是他一生的写照。因此这张Single也一直被很多尾崎迷们视为心中最爱。由于《太陽の破片》一曲并未被正式收录于尾崎任何一张大碟中，这张Single更显重要。太陽の破片，仿佛是绝望中的太陽射下了它的光芒。

One of the best all-time rock albums by any measure, Imagine is nearing its 30th birthday-and here's a marvelous tribute. You can get the original LP on CD or cassette with remixed, remastered sound and a 16-page booklet with lyrics and rare pix. Or go behind the scenes of a masterpiece-the documentary Gimme Some Truth-The Making of Imagine , featuring an unfinished film by John and Yoko, is available on VHS or DVD (DVD has surround sound, an eight-page booklet and discography). A treasured moment in rock history.

2004年新版本，Satellite Of Love、Walk On The Wild Side、Perfect Day为Original版本，增加Hangin' 'Round、Perfect Day两首原声吉他版demo。

《INCESTICIDE》并不是一张完整设计的专辑，但它充分展示了 Cobain 和乐队的种种极端甚至矛盾的方面。“Dive”是从乐队的小样上扒下来的。“Sliver”是与 Cobain 身世有关的歌。专辑中还翻唱了三首歌曲，即 Devo 乐队的“Turnaround”和 The Vaseline 乐队的“Molly's Lips”及“Son Of Gun”。“Beeswax”、“Mexican Seafood”、“Hairspray Queen”和“Aero Zeppelin”显然是1988年1月 Nirvana 第一盘录音小样中的版本，这几首歌都是 Cobain 最早的一些作品。“Big Long Now”这首歌是 Cobain 和 Chris 共同写的曲子。专辑的封面画是 Cobain 的作品。一个经受创伤的孩子正在爬上父母摸样的骨架人体，后者显然不愿搭理那个孩子，于是孩子充满渴望的目光投向了一束花，而那赫然便是美丽而致命的罂粟花，这幅画令人惊心动魄地看到了 Cobain 一代人的经历。
