When Wolfgang Petry was discovered by Tony Hendrik and Karin Hartmann at a gig in the Forsbach discotheque „Whisky Bill“ in 1975, it was not foreseeable that he would rise to become one of the biggest German pop stars of all time and that his songs would become cult hits for eternity. Over decades, the Cologne-born singer won countless awards, broke records and amassed hit after hit. Another phenomenon of this unique career: many Petry songs, especially from the early days, only became absolute mega-hits and evergreens over the years - unusual for the fast-moving music business. With „Jeder Freund ist auch ein Mann“ (Every friend is also a man), he appeared for the first time on the ZDF Hit Pa-rade on 31 July 1976 and took second place. The singles „Wenn ich geh‘“ and „Jes-sica“ were the next successes in 1981. Wolfgang Petry‘s best-of album „Alles“ was re-leased in 1996 and sold more than two million copies, making it one of the best-selling mu-sic albums in the country to this day. With 83 chart weeks, „Die längste Single der Welt“ is a record-breaking perennial in the German singles charts and, with one million units sold, is also one of the best-selling singles in Germany. It was followed by sold-out tours with legendary concerts in the biggest stadiums in Germany. In September 2006, Petry cele-brated his 30th anniversary on stage; to mark the occasion, he was awarded another plati-num tuning fork. Petry, however, saw himself at the end of his career and withdrew com-pletely for a few years. It was not until February 2014 that he was back and since then he has been regularly releasing new albums again, musically more multi-layered, sometimes also in English as the singer of the „Pete Wolf Band“. Wolfgang Petry has been married to his wife Rosemarie since 1972. The couple has a son, Achim Petry, also a singer and songwriter.

The landmark concert from the 21 LP ‘Progeny’ Box showcases YES with their classic lineup at their peak right after the release of Close To The Edge.

Tales from Topographic Oceans (Super Deluxe Edition) is the definitive version of Yes' ambitious sixth album, the record that stands as one of the most sprawling and intricate works of the progressive rock era. This expansive album version includes twelve CDs, two LPs, and a Blu-Ray disc. Introducing, a newly mastered/remastered version of the original album by Bernie Grundman for vinyl and CD. Delve deeper with new 2026 Steven Wilson remixes of the core album, including instrumental versions, alongside a treasure trove of previously issued rarities. This collection is further enriched by portions of two previously unreleased live performances from the legendary Tales tour. A Blu-Ray disc completes the collection with Steven Wilson's new mixes, including the album in immersive Dolby Atmos and 5.1 Mix DTS-HD MA.

Performing on the Baroque cello (outfitted with gut strings and without an endpin, making it so that the performer has to clutch the instrument between the legs), Yo-Yo Ma delivers the warm, listener-friendly classical music that he has become known for. Supported by conductor Ton Koopman's period Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra, Ma presents a wholly unusual interpretation of some of Bach's better known Baroque works, as well as some lesser known pieces by Italian composer Luigi Boccherini.

The sound of the Baroque cello changes the mood of each familiar piece to something warmer and more intimate. The string composition has a less dry tone than the usual wound string, and the absence of the endpin means that there is no sound traveling through the floor, therefore all of the sound comes directly from the body of the instrument. Ma's skilled handling of the pieces evolve Simply Baroque beyond an interesting experiment and into a beautiful listening experience.

Simply Baroque is available as a limited edition of 500 copies on aquamarine vinyl and includes a 4-page booklet with liner notes.
