I Can't Give You Anything But Love On Monday, June 26, Frankie Valli walked down the aisle in Las Vegas with his longtime girlfriend Jackie Jacobs. This October, he'll take the stage at the city's Westgate Resort and Casino to begin a yearlong residency at the hotel, during which time he'll turn 90 years young. For more than 60 of those years, the artist born Francesco Stephen Castelluccio in Newark, New Jersey has been the lead vocalist of The Four Seasons, the group he co-founded on a

OUT TOMORROW! Real Gone, Second Disc Expose Pool-Pah and Rupert Holmes' Psych-Rock Rarity "The Flasher"
1973: the sexual revolution was on, streaking was taking college campuses by storm, and Deep Throat was edging pornography ever closer to the mainstream. Against this backdrop, a talented New York band with the unlikely moniker of Pool-Pah teamed up with up-and-coming singer-songwriter, musician, and arranger Rupert Holmes to write and record an unforgettably far-out soundtrack blending rock, psychedelia, jazz, prog, pop, and electronica. It had to be heard to be believed...and far too few
Sedan Delivery: Neil Young Officially Releases "Chrome Dreams" in August
Almost sixteen years after the release of Chrome Dreams II, Neil Young is finally unveiling the original, "lost" 1977 album. Featuring cover artwork by Ronnie Wood dating back to 1976, Chrome Dreams will arrive in CD, LP, and digital formats on August 11. The dozen songs comprising Chrome Dreams were recorded between 1974 and 1976 and assembled as an acetate to consider for potential release in 1977. Ultimately, Young opted to shelve Chrome Dreams, and his lone album release for 1977 was
Review: Little Feat, "Sailin' Shoes" and "Dixie Chicken" Deluxe Editions
Little Feat was no ordinary rock-and-roll band. The seeds of the California group were planted when singer-songwriter Lowell George, then playing in Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention, met keyboardist Bill Payne, who had unsuccessfully auditioned for the famously tough Zappa. The pair hit it off and teamed with former Mothers bassist Roy Estrada and drummer Richard Hayward, late of George's old band The Factory, to form Little Feat. The story remains unclear as to exactly what prompted George

Sweet, Sweet Surrender: Rare and Unreleased Beck, Bogert & Appice Concerts Collected in New Box Set

Live in Japan 1973, Live in London 1974 is a 4CD/4LP box set offering two much-coveted sets in the short but pivotal era in which Beck, drummer/singer Carmine Appice and bassist Tim Bogert laid down a heavy duty power trio that knocked fans of
That's the Look: ABC's 'The Lexicon of Love' Updated with 40th Anniversary Vinyl/Blu-ray Box
Who's got the look? British band ABC's effortlessly cool debut The Lexicon of Love helped established a cutting-edge style for the decade to come, and it'll be reissued about a year on from its 40th anniversary this summer in a pair of new vinyl editions.

Not So 'Last' Splash: The Breeders' Landmark Album Gets Reissued with Two Unheard Tracks
The Breeders' Last Splash - one of the most treasured albums of the '90s alternative rock explosion - will be newly reissued this fall with a small but intriguing selection of bonus material. The 1993 album was given the deluxe treatment for its 20th anniversary in 2013 - but, it turns out, the original analog tapes could not be located to create that set. In the decade since, they've been successfully located, and in addition to newly-remastered favorites like "Cannonball" and "Divine
Just Push Play: Aerosmith Preps Ultimate 'Greatest Hits' for August (UPDATED 6/28)
Ahead of their Peace Out Tour in 2023-2024 - closing a significant chapter in the book of one of the best (or perhaps the most) American rock bands - Aerosmith will issue a brand-new career spanning compilation across multiple formats in August. The simply-titled Greatest Hits shares a name with the group's first compilation, issued back in 1980, but it's being billed as an "ultimate" product, and packaged as an entirely different set. It is, of course, the first compilation issued since the

Review: Kenny Rogers, "Life Is Like a Song"
In the booklet to his new posthumous release Life Is Like a Song, the late Kenny Rogers is quoted: "Music is the greatest memory-maker you'll ever encounter. A song can lock you right into a memory for a lifetime." Rogers' own music, whether "The Gambler," "Through the Years," "Lady," "She Believes in Me," "You Decorated My Life," or "Islands in the Stream," certainly proves that adage. The Texas-born singer, who passed away in 2020 at the age of 81, blurred the lines between country and pop

Stand Back: Rhino Releases Stevie Nicks' Complete Discography on CD, LP Box
If you'll forgive the easy reference, there's no one quite as bewitching as Stevie Nicks. Since she joined Fleetwood Mac in 1975 and helped turn them from British blues-based cult act to blockbuster pop/rock icons, her enrapturing voice and stage presence have influenced generations. In 1981, she began a parallel solo career with hits on her own that helped make her, in 2019, the first woman inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice. It's that solo material that's the subject of a
