Review: Perry Como, "Live on Tour"
"I was a barber. Since then, I've been a singer. That's it." So reflected Perry Como on an astounding career in which the onetime haircutter from Canonsburg, Pennsylvania sold more than 100 million records, charted 131 singles in the United States, fourteen No. 1s, and seventeen Gold records - including the very first single to receive that certification, 1958's "Catch a Falling Star." He hosted more than 1,000 television programs, earned five Emmys, a Grammy, and a Kennedy Center Honor.

Soul Serenades: RPM Expands Mod Music of "The Mike Cotton Sound"
The name of The Mike Cotton Sound might be most familiar from the group’s role backing Mary Hopkin on her debut album Post Card, or for supporting The Kinks on Muswell Hillbillies. But the band, led by trumpeter and multi-instrumentalist Mike Cotton, actually traveled a diverse musical road throughout the 1960s, a trajectory chronicled on RPM Records’ expanded edition of the band’s 1964 long-player, The Mike Cotton Sound. Leader Cotton had scored his first hit in 1963 with “Swing That

Review: Todd Rundgren, "Global"
Almost two years ago to the day, Todd Rundgren released his 24th studio album, State. The prolific singer-songwriter-producer hasn’t been resting on his laurels in the period since State. He’s maintained a busy touring schedule both solo and with Ringo Starr’s All-Starr Band, and has contributed to numerous studio projects this year including the progressive collaboration Runddans with Hans-Peter Lindstrøm and Emil Nikolaisen, and Starr’s Postcards from Paradise (on which he co-wrote
Review: Dion, "Recorded Live at the Bitter End August 1971"
Armed with nothing but his guitar and his familiar, reassuring voice, Dion DiMucci took the stage at the Bitter End, in New York’s Greenwich Village, in August 1971. The rock and roll survivor had successfully made the transition from teenaged doo-wopper to folk-rock troubadour, moving from independent Laurie Records to New York major Columbia and back again to Laurie, briefly reuniting with his old group The Belmonts at ABC, too. Then, in 1969, Dion made the shift to the West Coast-based
Review: Glen Campbell, "Rhinestone Cowboy: 40th Anniversary Edition"
On April 22, Glen Campbell will turn 79 years old. The past years haven’t been easy for the artist; his ongoing battle with Alzheimer’s was boldly chronicled in the acclaimed 2014 documentary I’ll Be Me for which he earned an Academy Award nomination. Though the disease has reportedly robbed Campbell of his ability to communicate verbally, it’s understood that he still finds solace and comfort in the music of his guitar. It’s a small but important reward for Campbell considering the joy he’s
Be So Lucky: PWL/Cherry Red Reissues Kylie Minogue’s First Four Albums
When Kylie Minogue stepped onto a stage in August of 1986 to perform “I’ve Got You Babe” and “The Loco-Motion” at a benefit concert, she probably didn’t realize it would help to propel her, within one year, on a path to become one of the biggest pop sensations in the world. By the end of 1987, her first single was released by PWL and climbed within several weeks to No. 1 in the UK, beginning a long string of hits with the label in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Cherry Red and PWL have
