World Tour, the album finds Collins performing many of his biggest hits, from "Against All Odds (Take A Look At Me Now)" and "You Can't Hurry Love" to "Another Day In Paradise" and "Easy Lover" featuring Philip Bailey.

Gone So Fast: Omnivore Brings Unicorn's Lost, Gilmour-Produced Folk-Rock Gems to CD, LP, and Digital
The '70s folk-rock group Unicorn released three albums for EMI during the decade. The recordings were produced by Pink Floyd's David Gilmour and highlighted the band's talent for laid-back folk-rock. Their smooth, Eagles-like sound, Crosby & Nash-esque harmonies, and slick, professional production value could have won them critical acclaim, but history has largely forgotten their lush original material. (Cherry Red's Esoteric imprint has recently taken a look at their core discography.)
Pedal Patter: Omnivore Offers Buck Owens Classics on Tom Brumley Compilation, "Steelin' The Show"

Holiday Gift Guide Review: R.E.M., "R.E.M. At The BBC"
"We were a fun party band who somewhere along the way learnt how to write songs," Michael Stipe is quoted as saying in the notes to Craft's Recordings new boxset R.E.M. At The BBC. Of course, R.E.M. was much more than that over the course of their nearly 30-year career, going from college underground band to alternative pioneers to global superstars. And with Craft Recordings' new 8-CD/1-DVD box, you can trace that career as seen and heard by UK audiences over the years. The quartet of

Johnny Mathis was billed on his very first album as "A New Sound in Popular Song."

Holiday Gift Guide Review: Lefty Frizzell, "An Article from Life: The Complete Recordings"

Now, more than 25 years later, the Bears have returned to the country-and-western troubadour's career for the most definitive chronicle ever. An Article from Life: The Complete Recordings has

Eyes On The Prize: John Mellencamp Collects Covers On New Album, "Other People's Stuff"
When John Mellencamp was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2008, Billy Joel remarked that, "People need to hear a voice like yours to echo the discontent that's in the heartland. They need to hear stories about it. They need to know that someone out there feels the way they do." Though Mellencamp has never sought to be the voice of the Small Town, his stories of struggle, loss, perseverance, and love have spoken to the American heartland for more than forty years. For his

While leading the septet, he was hired by EMI as an orchestral arranger - which in turn, led to his first film assignments. The early days of Barry's career have been
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Neil Diamond, "50th Anniversary Collector's Edition"

Diamond has just looked back on his remarkable career on a handsome new box set from Capitol Records and UMe. 50th Anniversary Collector's Edition expands upon the similarly-titled
Review: Chris Darrow and Max Buda, "Eye of the Storm"
Last month, the L.A.-based label Blixa Sounds unveiled its latest release, the first-ever reissue of Chris Darrow and Max Buda's Eye of the Storm. The 1981 collaboration brought together two psych-rock heavyweights, whose multi-instrumental talents and joyous style are on full display throughout. It's hard to believe, but the album has never received any sort of reissue or re-pressing since its original release on the legendary Takoma label 37 years ago. Now, Blixa Sounds has brought the
