Ontinuous Performance is the fourth studio album by Scottish band Stone the Crows.

Despite Ontinuous Performance entering the Top 40, and Bell being voted Britain’s best female vocalist in a Melody Maker poll, the album and its associated tour left Bell with the feeling that it “was never going to work out”, citing “attitudes” that she doesn’t feel the need to revisit. Allen feels that industry politics was at play, and a disagreement with Leahy may have been used as a lever to split the band.

Harvey’s final recordings came out on Stone The Crows’ fourth album, Ontinuous Performance (the title inspired by a broken venue sign), released four months after his death, and included two guitar tracks from McCulloch. The record closed with Sunset Cowboy, a personal tribute to Harvey.

The Best of 3 Dog Night is the fifteenth album (compilation) by the American rock band and is a double album released in 1982. It was certified Gold by the RIAA on May 1, 1996. Three Dog Night is an American rock band formed in 1967, founded by vocalists Chuck Negron, Cory Wells, and Danny Hutton.

They initially went by the name Redwood. Shortly after abandoning the Redwood moniker in 1968, the vocalists hired a group of backing musicians – Ron Morgan on guitar, Floyd Sneed on drums, Joe Schermie from the Cory Wells Blues Band on bass, and Jimmy Greenspoon on keyboards – and soon took the name Three Dog Night. Morgan left the band before its first album was recorded. Michael Allsup was quickly recruited to replace Morgan on guitar...

Sam The Sham And The Pharaohs were an American rock and roll band from Dallas, Texas, known for their hit song "Wooly Bully," which was the number one song of 1965 according to Billboard magazine's year-end Hot 100.

The band was formed by lead singer Domingo "Sam" Samudio, better known by his stage name Sam the Sham (February 28, 1937 in Dallas, Texas, United States) in 1961. They were active until 1967 and were associated with genres such as garage rock, rock and roll, and proto-punk. The original lineup of the band included Carl Miedke, Russell Fowler, Omar "Big Man" Lopez, and Vincent Lopez.

 However, the lineup changed over time, and the band consisted of members like Andy Kuha, Anthony Gerace, Billy Bennett, Butch Gibson, David Martin, Frank Carabetta, Jerry Patterson, Ray Stinnett, and Sam Samudio. Some of their other notable songs include "The Hair on My Chinny Chin Chin" and "Betty and Dupree".

 The band toured the world as a supporting act for The Beach Boys, Peter And Gordon, James Brown, Sonny And Cher, and many others. Sam the Sham, known for his camp robe and turban, would haul his equipment in a 1952 Packard hearse with maroon velvet curtains.

Bo Diddley's album "The Black Gladiator" was released in June 1970 and marked a shift in his musical style, incorporating funk and soul elements while retaining his blues roots. It was recorded in response to the changing music scene of the late 1960s, where Bo Diddley aimed to modernize his blues-rock sound with a funk edge. The album includes ten tracks, with notable songs such as "Elephant Man", "I've Got A Feeling", "Funky Fly" and "I Don’t Like You" which showcase Diddley's humor and musical prowess. The cover art features Bo Diddley wearing a leather belt and a pseudo-S&M outfit, which was a bold statement at the time. There are raw gospel shouts, ripping guitar, fatback drums, gritty Hammond organ, and even a round of the dozens with Cookie Vee. (Cookie Vee, whose real name was Cornelia Redmond-Chavez, was a background singer and performer who toured with Bo Diddley for over 25 years.)
