Omnivore Recordings unearths a never-before-heard live recording from late troubadour Steve Goodman. Recorded at the University of Illinois, Live '69 finds the solo Goodman reinterpreting disparate songs by The Beatles, Jefferson Airplane, Bob Dylan, Merle Haggard, Willie Dixon, and others - and making them all his own in the process.

Omnivore brings together 19 previously unissued demos from late singer-songwriter and onetime Kingston Trio member John Stewart, perhaps best known for penning The Monkees' hit "Daydream Believer." While that song isn't here in demo form, numerous other bona fide Stewart classics certainly are, including "July, You're a Woman" (also recorded by performers as diverse as Eddy Arnold and Pat Boone) and other classics from Stewart's landmark California Bloodlines album.

Review: Frank Zappa, "The Hot Rats Sessions"
What is jazz-rock? The label has been applied to the work of diverse artists such as Chicago, Blood Sweat & Tears, Miles Davis, Steely Dan, and Santana (and that's just to name some of the most well-known exponents) not to mention an entire cadre of fusion artists like the groups Weather Report and Return to Forever. In the jazz-rock canon, the name of Frank Zappa certainly stands tall. The multi-faceted artist delivered one of the genre's earliest and most seminal albums with 1969's Hot
