 Eagle Rock Entertainment is recognized as a pioneer in the music Blu-ray market. On November 17, they will once again deliver high-definition music satisfaction for a wide array of music fans, when performances from Earth, Wind & Fire, Billy Idol, and Marilyn Manson are released just in time for the holidays at a suggested list price of $24.95 each.
 In 1997, funk-soul collective Earth, Wind & Fire hit the Montreux Jazz Festival stage in the midst of their In The Name Of Love album tour. On Live at Montreux 1997, the band set the crowd alight with new material and classics such as “Let’s Groove,” “September,” and “Boogie Wonderland.” Another album from the Montreux Jazz Festival is Carlos Santana. On Santana Presents Blues at Montreux 2004, he is joined by three blues-guitar legends -- Buddy Guy, Bobby Parker, and Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown. Nile Rodgers also makes an appearance.
 On In Super Overdrive Live, Billy Idol, trademark sneer intact, took over the Congress Theater in Chicago for the US TV series Soundstage, which aired in July 2009. This concert, which will be released on standard DVD the same day as the Blu-ray, runs the gamut from Idol’s ‘80s pop-punk hits (“Dancing With Myself,” “White Wedding,”) to newer material from his recently released album The Devil’s Playground.
For hard-rock fans with a taste for screen-burning clarity, Marilyn Manson’s Guns, Gods, and Government -- Live in LA Blu-ray is the perfect performance. The original DVD, released in 2002, was the culmination of live footage shot around the globe, supplemented with a soundtrack captured at the LA performance. This Blu-ray features the entire LA show, filmed on the last night of his world tour supporting the Holy Wood album. In addition to the show, “The Death Parade” bonus feature is an all-access look into life on the road, with cameos from Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne and Eminem, among others.
