December 8, 2022 By The Second Disc 4 Comments

Rolling Stones Grrr Live

Ten years ago, The Rolling Stones named their tour 50 & Counting which turned out not to be an exaggeration at all, considering The World's Greatest Rock and Roll Band is still going strong today even after weathering the loss of drummer Charlie Watts.  On February 10, Mercury Studios will commemorate a special night on that tour with the release of GRRR Live!, a 24-song set recorded at Newark, New Jersey's Prudential Center on December 13 and 15, 2012.  The concert will be released in a

Coming Around Again: Carly Simon's "Live at Grand Central" Comes to CD, LP, Blu-ray

November 21, 2022 By Joe Marchese 3 Comments

Carly Simon Live at Grand Central

Earlier this month, Carly Simon was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  It was a long-overdue recognition for the singer-songwriter whose thirteen U.S. top 40 hits include such radio staples as "Anticipation," "The Right Thing to Do," "Nobody Does It Better," "Coming Around Again," and the chart-topping "You're So Vain."  Any fan of Simon knows that any live appearance is a true rarity-and the same was true back on April 2, 1995, when she performed her first full-length concert in 14

Memories for You Now: John Mellencamp's 'Scarecrow' Gets Remixed and Expanded in November

October 11, 2022 By Mike Duquette 9 Comments

Mellencamp Scarecrow Art

1984 was a big year for pop music, from the tail-end of Michael Jackson's Thriller era, the commercial breakthroughs of Madonna and Prince, and the blockbuster release of Bruce Springsteen's Born in the U.S.A., which spun off seven Top 40 hits over the following year and a half. Those rising commercial tides lifted many boats, and John Mellencamp benefited greatly a year later with his own blue-collar rock masterpiece, the cutting Scarecrow. On November 4, that album comes back into print as a

What's So Civil About the 'Use Your Illusion' Box, Anyway?

September 21, 2022 By Mike Duquette 4 Comments

Use Your Illusion box

As post-glam/metal moments of largesse go, Guns N' Roses' simultaneous release of Use Your Illusion I & II was perhaps as big as it gets. So it makes sense that a new box set collecting both albums is about as grandiose - and as messy. On November 11, UMe will collect the band's 1991 studio albums in a new super deluxe box that spans seven CDs or 12 LPs and a Blu-ray. Both boxes include new remasters of Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II, plus two complete live sets, newly mixed

It's a Pretty Good Crowd for a Stadium: Billy Joel's 'Live At Yankee Stadium' Gets Newly Restored for New Release

Billy Joel Yankee Stadium

Billy Joel and New York stadiums are a match made in heaven for fans of the Piano Man. Of course, he's been packing them in with a regular residency at Madison Square Garden that's nearly spanned 100 shows since 2014. In 2008, he brought a galaxy of stars to Shea Stadium (including Paul McCartney, on a return trip to the field) before the Mets' old home was torn down. In 2015, he played a set at Nassau Coliseum on Long Island, the last event before its renovation - and two years later, he played

He Shall Be a Good Man: Elton John's 'Madman Across the Water' Gets Deluxe Edition

April 21, 2022 By Mike Duquette 12 Comments

Madman 50

Elton John's breathtaking piano pop conjured up powerful images thanks to the lyrics of Bernie Taupin - but the duo were often writing about things before they experienced them. The Americana of 1970's Tumbleweed Connection, for instance, was indeed a fantasy; only within the year would Elton get his first taste of America - and the results powered his next studio album, 1971's appropriately-titled Madman Across the Water. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rUarpBrfLI That album will be the
