Mike Duquette

Mike Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he was a teenager. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.

    Will definitly check out Rod the Mod's rarities. I can only hope that it has some Faces era nuggets yet to be discovered.

    The Yes "High Vibration" box is a little curious, seeing as how it removes most of the bonus tracks that Rhino put on the albums a decade ago - and meanwhile Panegyric is preparing new reissues with even more bonus material. I suppose this set is aimed squarely at SACD enthusiasts.

    Happy to see the Monterey Pop box set reissued. (Judging from the packaging, I'd guess it's a reissue of the Rhino box.) I'd welcome a complete release of Buffalo Springfield's Monterey set (right now only "For What It's Worth" is available, on a Razor & Tie compilation), but I don't know if it will ever happen. I understand that some people who've heard the other tracks find the band's performance to be subpar, and some would say it's not "really" Buffalo Springfield without Neil Young, but Monterey appears to be the only live gig the band ever properly recorded. Stick the songs on a new compilation, along with the nine-minute "Bluebird."
