Revolution is a 2019 studio album by American pop and rock singer Paula Cole.
Revolution explores political themes that connected to Cole's 1999 album Amen and the singer promoted this album by debuting her cover of the Marvin Gaye ecological anthem "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)". [2]
Writing for PopMatters, Charles Donovan scored Revolution an eight out of 10, writing that her Cole's political emphasis works with her music and considers the album "an exceptional piece of work, a timely reminder of how soulful, perceptive and harrowing a writer and singer Cole is and has always been".

Parachute is the first album by the band Guster, released in 1994. Four thousand copies were released under the band name Gus. Those copies are considered very rare by Guster fans. The stuffed animal on the cover of the album is a childhood toy of the percussionist Brian Rosenworcel and is lovingly referred to as "The Big Friend." It has become a mascot of sorts for the band.
Don't Give Up on Me is a studio album by American R&B/Soul singer Solomon Burke, recorded and released in 2002 on Fat Possum Records. The album won the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album. It is noteworthy for the contributions of original and previously unreleased compositions by top-rank songwriters, the effect of which placed Burke back in the public eye for a time. Guest stars are Daniel Lanois, who plays electric guitar on "Stepchild", and The Blind Boys of Alabama, who feature on backing vocals for "None of Us Are Free". "None of Us Are Free" was also featured at the end of the sixth episode ("Spin") of the second season of House. "Fast Train" was featured during the ending montage of the season three finale of The Wire.
Strait Out of the Box is the first box set album by American country music artist George Strait. It contains four albums' worth of music, dating from 1976 to 1995. It mainly consists of Strait's singles, except for a select few that he decided to exclude. They were replaced by his choice of album cuts and several studio outtakes. It also contains his three singles recorded in the 1970s for indie label D Records, one of which, "I Just Can't Go on Dying Like This", was re-recorded for Strait's 2013 album Love Is Everything.
Happy Town is the third album by the American singer-songwriter Jill Sobule, released in 1997. The album contains the singles "Bitter" and "When My Ship Comes In" as well as "Half a Heart" and the satirical social commentary "Soldiers of Christ", where Sobule sings from the point of view of a Christian Conservative to illustrate the existence of homophobia in religion. The album sold 24,000 copies in the US within the first year of its release.
Harbinger is the debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Paula Cole. It was released through Imago Records, but, just months after its release, the company folded, so promotion for Harbinger was almost non-existent. A video was shot for the first single, "I Am So Ordinary", and is available on iTunes. There are two different covers for the album, which was re-released by Warner Bros. Records, who picked up Cole's contract in 1995 after absorbing Imago when it folded.
Amen. is the third studio album by Paula Cole. It is officially credited to "The Paula Cole Band." The album was stylistically a major departure from Cole's previous album, This Fire, and was met with mixed reviews. Commercially, the album failed to match the success of This Fire, peaking at #92 on the Billboard 200 chart, and selling 116,000 copies to date.
Courage is the fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter Paula Cole. It marks her return to the music scene after nearly a decade-long hiatus. The album is a departure from her previous work, towards more of a jazz and folk sound. "14" was the first single, while "Comin' Down" was released to Triple A radio in the US in early August. The record also features the song "It's My Life", which was featured in Mercury automobile commercials.
Summer Days is the ninth studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on July 5, 1965, on Capitol. The band's previous album, The Beach Boys Today!, represented a departure for the group through its abandonment of themes related to surfing, cars, and teenage love, but it sold below Capitol's expectations. In response, the label pressured the group to produce bigger hits. Summer Days thus returned the band's music to simpler themes for one last album, with Brian Wilson combining Capitol's commercial demands with his artistic calling.
A Stranger Here is an album by American folk musician Ramblin' Jack Elliott, released in 2009. It reached number 5 on the Billboard Top Blues albums charts.

Two singles were released from the album in Ireland: "Take Me Away" and "At The Sea".
