PURE TONE MUSIC: HOME

Pete, Jeff & John wish all of you a very happy and healthy 2008. We had a great '07 at Pure Tone with six Grammy nominations for projects we A&R'd (four for Daughtry, two for Chaka Khan) as well as Billboard Magazine's #1 album of 2007 (Daughtry). We also A&R'd albums for Blake Lewis (a Top 10 debut! ), Human Nature (#2 debut in Australia and already platinum there!), Santana ( "Into The Night" with Chad Kroeger still climbing at radio! ), America (their critically acclaimed return "Here & Now"), the Salvador Santana Band (self-titled debut), Dave Sereny (debut album for jazz label NuGroove), and the "A Song For My Father" and "New Music From An Old Friend" compilations (exclusives for Target). For 2008, we're currently A&R'ing albums for Donna Summer (her first studio album in 17 years!), Varsity (debut for Virgin Records), Halestorm (debut for Atlantic Records), Daughtry (the follow-up to their monster debut), The Neville Brothers (30th anniversary studio album), and a tribute to Hall & Oates (for Primary Wave, their new music publisher). Here's to a great '08!

Donna Summer's coming back! I can't wait. Please give us more info. All the news you have are gold for us waiting for such as 20 years

Could you please give some additional information about the upcoming CD from Donna Summer. The wait is hopefully soon over Kim - Denmark

Waiting to catch Summer Fever all over again. Her spin on the Joe ****er classic is priceless.:)
