Singles Box Rising For The Fall At Cherry Red
John Peel famously summed up his favorite band, The Fall, as such: "They are always different; they are always the same." So it's little surprise that the Manchester post-punk group's complete singles output would take up a box set - a 7CD box released by Cherry Red Records this week. The Fall's The Singles 1978-2016 will collect the sides issued by the group during those years on a number of labels, most notably Rough Trade, Beggars Banquet and Cherry Red itself, the group's current label
Review: "Saturday Night Fever: The Original Movie Sound Track" [Super Deluxe Box Set]
Listen to the ground...there is movement all around... Saturday Night Fever didn't invent disco...but in many ways, it epitomized the genre. With the December 1977 release of the John Badham-directed drama and its soundtrack album, the onetime underground dance movement which had been rising to the mainstream since at least 1974 became the mainstream. Disco's alluring blend of the gritty and the glamorous gained a face in the form of John Travolta, whose tough yet tender Tony Manero of Bay

World Turning: Fleetwood Mac To Expand Self-Titled 1975 Album
Over the last few years, Fleetwood Mac and Warner Music have worked together to expand their most "classic rock" era--the albums recorded with the line-up of Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie, John McVie and Mick Fleetwood between 1975 and 1987. After deluxe editions of Rumours, Tusk, Mirage and Tango In The Night, the group finally unites the chain with a new expansion of their self-titled 1975 album, the first to feature this line-up, due in January 2018.

Soundtrack Watch: Varese Preps Limited Editions For Goldsmith, Jarre, Stephen King Films
There's been a flurry of great catalogue activity from our friends at soundtrack label Varese Sarabande! A trio of limited editions, an exciting wide reissue of two soundtracks to a popular film series, and a quirky, cool box set tied to a popular novelist have all been announced by the label in the last few weeks.

Hail! Hail! Chuck Berry's 'The Great Twenty-Eight' Becomes Vinyl Box Set

Bound for Glory: Dylan, Baez, Paxton, Havens, Collins Celebrate Woody Guthrie on New Bear Family Box
Bob Dylan once said that, upon hearing Woody Guthrie's songs, "it was like I had been in the dark and someone had turned on the main switch of a lightning conductor." Steve Earle opined that "Woody is my hero of heroes and the only person on earth that I will go to my grave regretting that I never met." No less a literary eminence than John Steinbeck noted, "Woody is just Woody," before explaining, "Harsh voiced and nasal, his guitar hanging like a tire iron on a rusty rim, there is nothing
Happy Ending: Cherry Red Collects Albums from Yvonne Elliman and More on "Purple People Vol. 1"
Cherry Red Records has recently been cherry-picking a number of rare treasures from the archives of Purple Records, the label formed by Deep Purple. Between 1971 and 1979, Purple Records issued music not just from its namesake band, but by other artists both inside (Elf, Hard Stuff) and outside of the hard rock sphere. Highlights from these albums have been compiled before on a compilation entitled Purple People. Now, four of the label's most unexpected offerings have been collected on CD by
Feel The Force: Vinyl Box is Disney's First Catalogue Release For 'Star Wars'
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...well, five years ago in California, anyway...The Walt Disney Company purchased Lucasfilm Ltd. for a staggering $4 billion, gaining the rights to George Lucas' space epic Star Wars and beginning a new sequel trilogy (as well as several film and TV spin-offs) in the $42 billion franchise. Only now, however, has Disney Music Group announced its first physical catalogue product: a triple-LP vinyl box set of John Williams' original Oscar-winning score to

The Pharcyde Take Another 'Bizarre Ride' On Expansion of Their Debut Album

Review: Bob Dylan, "Trouble No More: The Bootleg Series Vol. 13 / 1979-1981"
I. Gotta Serve Somebody Bob Dylan wasn't mincing words. On the first track of the first album of what would later be referred to as his "gospel years," the artist laid his message out with striking simplicity. "It may be the devil, or it may be the Lord," Dylan admonished, "but you're gonna have to serve somebody." Suddenly, the same singer-songwriter who opined that "the answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind" had found the answer - and His name was Jesus Christ. Between 1979 and

One of a Kind: Bruford Brings Box Set

Review: The Smiths, "The Queen Is Dead: Deluxe Edition"
The Smiths have been apart far longer than they were together in the mid-1980s, making the Manchester quartet today less of a band and more of an idea. It's interesting to see how a new deluxe edition of The Queen Is Dead (Warner Bros. 0190295783372), the group's most lauded album, interprets that thesis through its content and packaging. While the band may have made for a mere cult sensation in America, but in their native England (where success was fleeting but far more consistent), they
