An Illusion to Me Now: "Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story" Gets DVD, Blu-ray Release from Criterion
"I cut off my hair and I rode straight away, for that wild unknown country where I could not go wrong." So sings Bob Dylan in "Isis." It's a line fitting for the mercurial Dylan, especially in 1975 as he and his merry cohorts - both friends and musicians - embarked on a tour of North American cities large and small on the circus-like Rolling Thunder Revue. Back in 2019, we told you about Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese. Part concert document and part

Review: The Rolling Stones' "Goats Head Soup 2020" Box Set Is Sure To Satisfy Your Hunger
Goats Head Soup: as far as Rolling Stones albums go, it's an outlier. It's not a "landmark album" in the same way as Sticky Fingers, it didn't defy expectations in the same way as Exile. It didn't herald a new sound like Beggars Banquet or Let It Bleed. Now, that's not to say it's not a great album, but it just feels...different. After the one-two-three-four punches of Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers, and the magnum opus Exile on Main Street, it makes sense that fans had long

If you weren't one of those with a ticket, or if you want to relive the show, you're in luck. It's been announced that the concert film Roger Waters: Us + Them, previously exclusive to Amazon, will now see wide release in a variety of formats on October

Play With Fire: The Rolling Stones Prep "Steel Wheels Live: Atlantic City, NJ" Featuring Eric Clapton, John Lee Hooker, and Axl Rose
Over thirty years ago, The Rolling Stones staged a show that would become one of the band's most renowned. The Atlantic City '89 concert, which took place on December 19, 1989 at the city's Convention Hall, was special for a number of reasons, but the main draw of the show was the special guests involved, who seemed to represent the past, present, and future. For this special show, The Stones called on their idol, John Lee Hooker for "Boogie Chillen," brought up their contemporary Eric Clapton

Star Star: The Rolling Stones Announce Reissues of "Goats Head Soup," Including Deluxe Box With Surround Sound Mixes
Though it sometimes gets lost in the shuffle among the more critically lauded Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main Street, The Rolling Stones' 11th album, Goats Head Soup is worthy of reappraisal - and that time has finally come, as The Rolling Stones and UMe have announced a set of reissues slated for September 4 featuring new mixes, demos, alternate versions, and live material across a number of configurations. Released in August 1973, Goats Head Soup was recorded across the world, with

Review: The Band, "The Band: 50th Anniversary Edition"
How to top Music from Big Pink? Wisely, The Band didn't even try. Ditching the Dylan co-writes and the covers, The Band returned with their self-titled sophomore LP in fall 1969. Late in 2019, Capitol Records and UMe remixed and expanded that now-classic effort for its 50th anniversary in the style of 2018's Big Pink campaign with releases in a variety of formats - most notably, a 2-CD/2-LP/1-BD/1 -7" single super deluxe edition. The so-called "Brown Album" was recorded about as far from New
Let There Be More Light: Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets Celebrate Early Pink Floyd With "Live at The Roundhouse"
