BOND – EXPLOSIVE
All the favourite tracks from the fabulous foursome BOND. Think of tracks such as Victory, Viva, Fuego, and Explosive.
EXPLOSIVE: THE BEST OF BOND brings together the spicy string quartet's hits from their albums Born, Shine and Classified as well as 3 previously-unreleased tracks Caravan, Sugar Plum (based on The Nutcracker ballet) and Carmina which subtly uses some melodic lines from 50 Cents' "In Da Club". ...find out more about BOND

POWDERFINGER – FINGERPRINTS
A rock'n'roll band who have withstood the fickle tastes of the day, have weathered the fashions, have watched the UK magazine-dictated genre trends from afar – borrowed from them all of these and made them their own, yes – but dug in, as brothers through all, to make music that has watched us get to here.
This band is Powderfinger.
That any rock'n'roll band could enjoy this environment, this brotherhood, with the ear, the heart and the personal memories of a nation for that long, is unique. This band, like very few before them – maybe Cold Chisel or Midnight Oil, INXS or The Easybeats (all quintets as well) – connect with the Australian people in a vital way. And it's this last attribute that gives this release resonance. We feel we know Powderfinger, that they are just like us.
After five studio albums, a live album and concert film and enough singles, videos and awards to fill a bathtub, Brisbane's favourite musical sons are releasing a Powderfinger biography that really tells the story better than anyone can on paper: Fingerprints: The Best Of Powderfinger ...find out more about POWDERFINGER
MELISSA ETHERIDGE – THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED
Already an international musical superstar, Melissa Etheridge's profile was raised to an even higher level in the past year with her courageous battle against breast cancer, an amazing show-stopping performance on the Grammy Awards and by being honoured as one of Time Magazine's Top 100 Most Influential People in the World.
This special Greatest Hits CD, The Road Less Travelled, is the first comprehensive collection of songs recorded during Melissa's remarkable musical journey, drawn from the earliest roots of her career to the brand new track 'Refugee,' a cover of the Tom Petty classic, as well as fan and radio favourites. ...find out more about MELISSA ETHERIDGE
