Review: Frank Zappa, "Halloween 81"
"The finest night of the year..." Frank Zappa knew how to throw one hell of a Halloween party. The iconoclastic composer-bandleader counted Halloween as his favorite holiday, and his annual celebratory shows were among his most anticipated. The 1981 stand at the late, lamented Palladium - a once-plush 1927 movie palace sadly demolished in 1998 to make room for dormitories at New York University - was particularly special to Zappa's fans as he had curtailed the 1980 shows earlier than
Gaining Experience: Jimi Hendrix Sessions Collected on Curtis Knight and The Squires' "No Business: The PPX Sessions Volume 2"
Are you experienced? Back in 1965, the answer was: "not yet!" But Jimi Hendrix was charting a path to his eventual success that included working as a sideman with Curtis Knight and The Squires. A dozen of these performances will be released on brown vinyl for Record Store Day Black Friday on November 27, but you don't have to wait that long to hear the complete 19-song set. No Business: The PPX Sessions Volume 2 will first be released on CD and digital providers through Dagger Records on

Review: Prince, "Sign 'O' The Times: Super Deluxe Edition"
Tell Me Who in This House Know About the Quake Would a look into Prince's Crystal Ball ever have predicted this? For the third of its deluxe album reissues - following a 3CD/DVD expansion of Purple Rain and a 5CD/DVD deluxe box of 1999 - Warner Records and NPG have unveiled the most lavish archival project yet to emerge from the Prince archive.

In Memoriam: Eddie Van Halen (1955-2020) and Johnny Nash (1940-2020)
Yesterday, the world lost two titans of popular song, Eddie Van Halen and Johnny Nash. We salute them both. Eddie Van Halen, who died of cancer at the age of 65, was born in Amsterdam and rose to fame in southern California, but his music belonged to the world. Guitarist Eddie and brother-drummer Alex formed the band that became Van Halen in 1972 and paid their dues in the ensuing years, earning fans such as Gene Simmons and Kim Fowley. Once Warner Bros. Records took notice of them in
Calling Card: Rory Gallagher's Career Celebrated on New Compilation Due This Week
When Jimi Hendrix was asked what it was like to be the best guitarist in the world, he replied, "I don't know, why don't you go and ask Rory Gallagher." Despite the indelible mark left by the Irish blues-rocker, Gallagher tends to be unfairly cast aside. UMe have done their part with acclaimed collections like last year's Blues and the 2020 live set Check Shirt Wizard - Live In '77. This Friday, October 9, the label will release a new career-spanning collection: The Best Of Rory
Digital Round-Up: Bob Dylan Collects Rarities on "Best of The Bootleg Series," Releases New Episode of "Theme Time Radio Hour"
Since 1991, Bob Dylan and his team have combed the archives for new and interesting rarities from the vault to create The Bootleg Series. Once a tightly curated affair, the series has since expanded to take on a kitchen sink, "warts-and-all" approach. Fans have savored new archival Dylan releases every fall for several years and have been speculating what would arrive this year. While it appears likely that a new volume won't hit shelves until next year, the Dylan team have chosen to take a
Are You Ready to Rock: Esoteric Reissues, Expands Two from Roy Wood and Wizzard
One of Birmingham's most renowned musical exports, Roy Wood trained listeners to expect the unexpected. The founder or co-founder of The Move, Electric Light Orchestra, and Wizzard, Wood hasn't been among the most prolific artists of the rock era - with just four proper solo albums to his name - but he's surely one of the most inventive. Late last year, Cherry Red's Esoteric Recordings imprint reissued Wood's second solo LP, Mustard, as an expanded edition. Now, the label has returned to the
