I want to introduct something about Anti Skid Button Flooring. Provide safe skid free environment with colour& style Where good traction and long wearability are important the poly anti-skid is the ideal flooring manufactured with premier’s multi-layer technology. The super tough vinyl wear abrasion layer at the top is deeply embossed and retains color& wear far longer than any rubber and single ply sheet floorings. Poly antiskid is highly suited for handling heavy traffic with extra grip for walking/movement. It is designed for a long life with high wear and tear resistance

Ever since Alex Steinweiss designed album covers for Columbia Records in the 1940′s, many famous artists and designers have also designed iconic and stylish album cover art. From famed cartoonist Robert Crumb, who designed Janis Joplin’s “Cheap Thrills” album cover to Andy Warhol’s contribution to the Rolling Stones’ “Sticky Fingers” LP, many famous artists have put their talents to work and put an image to the music created by rock and roll bands and artists.

A new U2 album, No Line on the Horizon, is slated for released March 3 via Interscope Records. The album, which is the iconic band’s 12th studio effort, was produced by Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois and Steve Lillywhite and was expected to be released before the end of 2008 after being recorded in Dublin, New York and Fez. The band decided to push back the release date for No Line on the Horizon fearing it wasn’t complete yet. Interscope-Geffen-A&M chairman Jimmy Iovine told http://Billboard.com, “I met with the guys in U2, and they say to me, ‘You know what? This album needs two more songs, and it will be exactly what we have in mind.’ I go there and I listen, and I agreed with them. It’s a great record, but it deserves the time. Labels need to work with artists to help them achieve their best work, not to ham records out that are half-baked or three-quarters baked.” No Line on the Horizon is the follow-up to 2004′s How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb. “Moment of Surrender” and “Unknown Caller” are two songs rumored to be included on U2′s forthcoming studio album.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will release a new album, the aptly titled Working on a Dream, January 27, 2009 via Columbia Records. On November 16 excerpts from the album’s title track were debuted during NBC’s NFL halftime show and Springsteen and his famed band are slated to take the stage as headliners for the half time show of Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa, Florida on February 1, 2009.

In 1939, Alex Steinweiss was employed at Columbia Records as the first art director for the company and decided to spruce up and repackage vinyl records. We all know the result, album cover art has become an important part of music and pop culture. (Prior to Steinweiss’s creative influences, records were generally stored in plain, undecorated packaging).
