Breathe Me: Sia's "Colour the Small One" Gets Vinyl Debut
Before Sia hit it big, both as a pop songwriter for Rihanna, Beyonce and Britney Spears and an enormous-voiced singer of tunes like "Titanium," "Chandelier" and recent hit "Alive," she was a quirky, tuneful indie-pop artist whose albums became critical darlings if not commercial successes. One such project, her third album Colour the Small One, is being reissued this spring, as both a digital expanded edition and, for the first time, a vinyl offering. Colour the Small One was, upon release in

Review: Raspberries, "Raspberries" Vinyl Edition
When Eric Carmen and Wally Bryson of Cyrus Eyrie teamed up with Jim Bonfanti and Dave Smalley of The Choir, the result was pop bliss. The Raspberries emerged from the ashes from the two bands, and over the course of four albums - three with the original line-up, and one with just Carmen and Bryson remaining - they came to define power pop. Yet today, some might wonder: Why is the Cleveland, Ohio band so fondly remembered despite only placing one Top 5 single in the U.S. and two more Top 20s?

Intrada Declares War on Records with "Titans," "Rocky" LPs
It seems like no one's safe from the vinyl bug--not even soundtrack giant Intrada, who this week announced vinyl versions of two of their best action scores: Laurence Rosenthal'sClash of the Titans and Vince DiCola's Rocky IV. Desmond Davis' Greek myth epic Clash of the Titans was part Hollywood throwback, part modern action film for 1981.

Reviews: Stan Getz and João Gilberto, "Getz/Gilberto '76" and Stan Getz, "Moments in Time"
Resonance Records has recently tapped the archives of the fondly-remembered San Francisco jazz spot Keystone Korner for two valuable additions on compact disc and vinyl to the Stan Getz discography.

Moments in Time preserves nine performances from Getz's core sets, while its companion is even more special. Getz/Gilberto '76 is a new entry to the small but
