The Pleasure Principle: Janet Jackson Albums Coming To Vinyl, Plus Expanded 'Control: The Remixes'
When a new pressing of Janet Jackson's breakthrough album Control was announced earlier this year, we speculated that perhaps the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and R&B/pop legend would finally be the subject of some catalog activity. That wish seems to be coming true: four more of Janet's albums are coming to vinyl on July 24, along with an expanded edition of a remix album to be released in America for the first time! A&M/Virgin/UMe will press Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814 (1989),

Blinded by the Light: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Amazon U.S. / Amazon U.K. / Amazon Canada / Barnes and Noble Exclusive Orange Vinyl August 14 sees the theatrical release of Blinded by the Light, a new coming-of-age film inspired by Sarfraz Manzoor's Greetings from Bury Park: Race, Religion and Rock N' Roll. Both book and movie chronicle the story of a young man's life-changing experiences with the music of Bruce Springsteen, so it's only appropriate that a soundtrack filled with Boss tunes would be on the way. Blinded by the Light:

If You Like Piña Coladas: "NOW" Series Celebrates Yacht Rock on New Volume
Shimmering guitars, breezy horns, smooth keyboards, and crisp vocals on well-crafted songs with catchy choruses: all of those qualities might have once described "soft rock" or "adult-oriented rock," but more recently the genre has experienced a resurgence as "yacht rock." Though the term was originally intended in a pejorative way, it's come to be accepted by many of the progenitors of the genre including Michael McDonald and John Oates. There's an entire book on the yacht rock phenomenon, a
Seeds and Stems: Cherry Red Collects Rarities from Iain Matthews on "Orphans and Outcasts"
Few artists of the rock generation can boast as diverse a C.V. as Iain (sometimes Ian) Matthews. The Fairport Convention founder went on to front Matthews' Southern Comfort and Plainsong as well as record under his own name in the pop, folk, country, and rock idioms, often blending those styles together. In his first decade alone, Matthews recorded for the Deram, Polydor, Island, Uni, Vertigo, Elektra, and CBS/Columbia labels - and at virtually every label, material was left behind. Between
