Review: Klaus Nomi, "Klaus Nomi" (Real Gone Vinyl Reissue)
With the new reissue of Klaus Nomi's self-titled debut album, Real Gone Music has presented another lost classic album on vinyl for the first time since its original release some three decades ago. It's one that is full of strangeness, starkness, and subtlety. Klaus Nomi stuns with a diverse repertoire, an over-the-top theatricality, but, more importantly, a dedication to craft that sometimes gets lost in the narrative. Yes, the NYC performance artist collaborated with David Bowie (as seen on

Review: Glen Campbell, "The Legacy [1961-2017]"
Glen Campbell's career-spanning box set is modestly titled The Legacy, fitting for the unlikely superstar from Delight, Arkansas. While The Legend might have been equally appropriate, Campbell's legacy is, truly, unlike any other. Throughout an extraordinary seven-decade career encompassing 21 Top 40 Pop hits, 27 Top 10 Country singles, six Top 20 Pop albums, and nine No. 1 Country albums in the United States alone, the artist regularly transcended genre with his honeyed vocals and virtuosic
Beginnings: Rhino Remixes "Chicago Transit Authority" For 50th Anniversary
On April 28, 1969, Chicago Transit Authority arrived in record stores, introducing the group that would become the world's most influential horn-rock band and one of the most successful bands of all time. The seven-man ensemble of Robert Lamm, Peter Cetera, Terry Kath, Danny Seraphine, Lee Loughnane, James Pankow, and Walter Parazaider, along with producer James William Guercio, offered something for everyone in their sprawling, stunning double-LP debut: big, hook-filled pop singles ("Does
Take Me Home Tonight: BGO Reissues Four Eddie Money Albums in One Collection
When young Eddie Mahoney changed his name to Eddie Money, it's safe to say that he had his eyes on the prize. The prize, of course, was chart success - something that the rock-and-roller achieved in abundance with such enduring hits as "Baby Hold On," "Two Tickets to Paradise," and "Take Me Home Tonight." The BGO label has recently collected four of Money's Columbia Records LPs - the second half of his discography for the label, comprising his fifth through eighth albums - on a new 2-CD set.
Pull the String: Cherry Red, SoulMusic Collect James and Bobby Purify's "Complete Bell Recordings"

Now, Cherry Red's SoulMusic Records imprint has brought together all of the Purifys' recordings for the Bell Records label on the 2-CD collection entitled (naturally) I'm Your Puppet: The Complete

Girl of My Dreams: Cherry Red, RPM Celebrate Twinkle with "The Complete Recordings"

But Morrissey (who also included her self-written "death disc" entitled "Terry" among his list of "Singles to be Cremated With") was just one of her famous fans - a rank also including Elton John and Sir Tim Rice. The Surrey-born singer went to school with Camilla Parker-Bowles, shared bills with The Beatles, Cilla Black, and Dusty Springfield, and hung out with Keith Moon and Jimi Hendrix.

It's Life's Illusions I Recall: Edsel Collects Judy Collins' 1960s Albums on New Box Set
With a crystalline voice and a songbook encompassing the best of folk, pop, Broadway, and beyond, Judy Collins remains an American treasure. The Seattle native first made a splash on the Colorado folk scene; soon, she was gaining notoriety in Connecticut and then in the fertile Greenwich Village stomping grounds of New York City. It was in New York that the luminous Collins - a classical piano prodigy, talented guitarist, gifted adapter and later, songwriter, and a singer with a three-octave

Review: James Taylor, "One Man Band"
The One Man Band tour took James Taylor on the road for three years of unusually intimate performances, even by the standards of the guitar-wielding troubadour. In 2007, the tour culminated in a series of shows at Pittsfield, Massachusetts' small, 775-seat Colonial Theatre, a true homecoming for the famous Massachusetts native. Joined only by keyboardist Larry Goldings, Taylor treated audiences to a tour through his songbook that amounted to a master class in musical storytelling. The live
