Manic Street Preachers - Journal for Plague Lovers
Produced by Steve Albini and recorded live at Rockfield Studios in Wales during the winter of 2008, Journal for Plague Lovers features lyrics left behind by former guitarist Richey Edwards across all 13 new tracks. Musically, the band draws on their classic Holy Bible sound with elements of Nirvanas In Utero, as well as a delicate, beautiful acoustic side.

Rudy Ray Moore - 50 Years of Cussing
If Redd Foxx was the king of the party record during the '50s and '60s, then certainly Rudy Ray Moore upped the ante during the '70s with a succession of XXX-rated platters that were so hot most stores could only sell them under the counter, even during the height of the sexual revolution. His best routines, usually spoken in rhyme, presaged the rap revolution in music by a good 20 years, while his lone acting role, starring in Dolemite, remains one of the great blaxploitation movies of that decade.
