Diego Costa
Diego da Silva Costa (, ; born 7 October 1988), commonly known as Diego Costa, is a professional footballer who plays as a striker for Premier League club Wolverhampton Wanderers and the Spain national team. Costa began his football career in his native Brazil before joining Braga in Portugal in 2006, aged 17. He never played for the club but spent time on loan at Penafiel, and signed with Atlético Madrid the following year. Over the next two seasons he had loan periods with Braga, Celta Vigo and Albacete. His form earned him a move to fellow La Liga club Real Valladolid in 2009, where he spent one season, finishing as their top goalscorer, before returning to Atlético Madrid. Costa struggled to maintain a regular starting role with Atlético, and spent more time on loan, this time at Rayo Vallecano, where he finished as the club's highest scorer that season. In 2011 Costa returned to Atlético with a greater role. He blossomed as a goalscorer, and helped the team win a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bobby Abel
Robert Abel (30 November 1857 – 10 December 1936), nicknamed "The Guv'nor", was a Surrey and England opening batsman who was one of the most prolific run-getters in the early years of the County Championship. He was the first England player to "carry his bat" – opening the batting and remaining not out at the end of an innings – through a Test innings, and the first player to score 2000 runs in consecutive seasons – which he did each season from 1895 to 1902. In 1899 for Surrey against Somerset at The Oval, Abel carried his bat through an innings of 811, the highest total for which this feat has been achieved. His 357* in that innings remains a Surrey record, and was the highest score made at The Oval until Len Hutton scored 364 in 1938. Abel also played a record number of first-class matches in a season – 41 in 1902. Abel was physically small, tall and slimly built. He suffered in the later part of his career from serious vision problems that could have handicappe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Guv'nor Vol 1
''The Guv'nor vol 1'' is a compilation of recordings by English folk musician Ashley Hutchings. Production Recordings were compiled from studio demos, live performances, and some studio finished products. Almost all had never been released before and the quality is variable. The tracks date from 1966 to 1993. Release At the time, the tracks by Fairport Convention attracted the most attention. Since 1993, most of these rarities have become available as bonus tracks on Fairport albums, or in the boxed set called "The Boxful of Treasures". The two Steeleye Span rarities have not become available elsewhere, but these recordings are of such poor fidelity that they must have been made on domestic, not professional equipment. Tracks four, six, and 16 were written by Bob Dylan. The compilation was released on CD in 1993. Track listing #"Washington At Valley Forge" (The Ethnic Shuffle Band) (1966) #"Some Sweet Day" (Fairport Convention) (1967) #"You're Gonna Need My Help" (Fairport Co ...

The Guv'nor Vol 2
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic pron ...

The Guv'nor Vol 3
''The Guv'nor vol 3'' is a compilation of recordings by Ashley Hutchings. These recordings come from studio demos, live performances and some studio finished product. Almost all had never been released before and the quality is variable. They date from the period 1968 to 1994. Track 8, "By The Time It Gets Dark" is a Sandy Denny composition that she never herself recorded professionally. This version with Julie Covington on lead vocals, was one of the first Denny songs to be recorded after her death. The 1612 collection of tunes "Terpsichore" by Michael Praetorius is rarely given an outing in folk circles, but here we have 4 of the tunes. It is probably the only folk-rock treatment that they have been given. The raucous version of "Harvest Home/ The Gas almost Works" comes from the Battle of the Field sessions, and you have to wonder why this was not included on the original album. The first two tracks were written by Joni Mitchell. Released on CD in 1995. Running time 63 minutes ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
The Guv'nor Vol 4

Almost all had never been released before and the quality is variable. They date from the period 1967 to 1996. Most of the songs and tunes are traditional. The album has the distinction of having the earliest recorded version of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now", though the version by Judy Collins was the first to become commercially available. At the time Joe Boyd was a producer who was friends with both Joni Mitchell and Fairport Convention, and he brought their attention to some early work by her. Sandy Denny is the author of "Fotheringay", and Billy Bragg wrote "Love Gets Dangerous". Track 10 is one of the last that Richard Thompson recorded before emigrating to the USA. The two tracks by Len Hutchings (Ashley Hutchings' father) are biographical. Released on CD in 1996. Running time 55 minutes 17 seconds. Track ...

Marshall is a British company that designs and manufactures music amplifiers, speaker cabinets, brands personal headphones and earphones, drums and bongos.

After gaining publicity, Marshall guitar amplifiers and loudspeaker cabinets were sought by guitarists for this new sound and increased volume. Many of the current and reissue Marshall guitar amplifiers continue to use valves, as is common in this market sector. Marshall also manufactures less expensive solid- ...
