Snuff's Guitars: Varese Vintage Rediscovers Garrett's "50 Guitars"
Thomas Lesslie "Snuff" Garrett is remembered today for his myriad of hit productions for artists like Gary Lewis and the Playboys ("This Diamond Ring"), Cher ("Gypsys, Tramps and Thieves," "Half Breed"), and Vicki Lawrence ("The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia").

Review: Little Richard, "Directly From My Heart"
The annals of rock have been filled with colorful characters, but few can compare to Richard Penniman, a.k.a. Little Richard. Over the course of just eighteen months beginning in 1955, the man who has called himself The King and Queen of Rock and Roll recorded the songs that laid the foundation of the genre, notching seventeen R&B Top 10s - four of which also made the Pop Top 10. After that initial burst of fame, however, Richard retreated from the spotlight. The new box set Directly from

The Lover Speaks once more! Cherry Red Group's Cherry Pop label has just offered up a new, expanded and remastered reissue of the new wave duo's gleaming slice of synth-pop. 1986's eponymous debut for The Lover Speaks, a.k.a. vocalist-lyricist David Freeman and composer-arranger Joseph Hughes, might be best remembered today for including the original recording of "No More 'I Love You's," a 1995 hit for Annie Lennox on both sides of the Atlantic.

Love Is The Answer: Edsel Collects Complete Big Tree Albums of England Dan and John Ford Coley
Here's one from the "Just in Case You Missed It" Department...

River Deep Mountain High: Ace Returns to the Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich Songbook
With Sweet Things, Ace Records has picked a most apt title for its third volume of music from the Ellie Greenwich and Jeff Barry songbook (Ace CDCHD 1434). Though Greenwich and Barry were united as husband and wife for just the short period of 1962-1965, and only worked together for a short time after that, a year hasn't gone by since when their enduring songs haven't been recorded and re-recorded. The collection's 24 titles span 1963-1978 and blend hits and rarities from the duo with tracks

Review: Andrew Gold, "The Late Show - Live 1978"
Isn't it about time for an Andrew Gold renaissance? Then again, the late artist's music is still very much a part of today. Just tune in to TV Land, Hallmark, or Logo TV and you'll hear Cynthia Fee's rendition of Gold's "Thank You for Being a Friend" introducing the exploits of Dorothy, Rose, Blanche and Sophia on every episode of The Golden Girls. And when "yacht rock" playlists started popping up, reviving breezy, laid-back 1970s soft rock sounds (many of which emanated out of California),
