Beauty and the Beat: Go-Go's Guitarist Kathy Valentine Announces New Memoir
We couldn't keep our lips sealed when we got the news about the upcoming autobiography from The Go-Go's Kathy Valentine, entitled All I Ever Wanted: A Rock 'n' Roll Memoir. Due from University of Texas Press on April 9, it's a "roller coaster of sex, drugs, and of course music" beginning in 1980, when Valentine met her future bandmates at The Whisky in LA. She and the group would go on to become the first multi-platinum-selling all-female band that not only wrote their own songs and played

Formed around singer/songwriters Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith (who also
Play Don't Worry: Mick Ronson's Post-Bowie Recordings Anthologized On New Box
The late Mick Ronson (1946-1993) was inextricably linked with David Bowie, playing with the superstar during his pre-fame days in The Hype and then as a Spider from Mars supporting Ziggy Stardust. But while Ronno's powerful licks still reverberate from his time with Bowie - on albums including The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders from Mars, Hunky Dory, Aladdin Sane, The Man Who Sold the World, Pin Ups, and Lou Reed's Transformer - he left behind a rich legacy of music in other

A New Format: Pre-fun. Indie-Pop Band Announces Vinyl Reissues
It was the most-talked about story for a very specific subset of indie-pop fans a month ago: an Instagram account for The Format was spotted. From 2002 to 2008, The Format were the band for lovers of ornately-crafted pop/rock that borrowed from turn of the century alternative stylings and baroque pop of the '60s and '70s in equal measure. Was a reunion imminent? That question has yet to be answered definitively - though it sure looks like they did yesterday at an event we'll discuss in a

All of the Nights We'd Harmonize 'Til Dawn: Legacy Releases Live EP from Simon and Garfunkel
On November 28, 1969, The New York Times headline trumpeted "Simon and Garfunkel Perform to Full House at Carnegie Hall." Paul Simon described the concert as a "true test of faith" as The Rolling Stones were playing downtown at Madison Square Garden, but the duo's faithful certainly rewarded them (and were rewarded themselves) as both the November 27 concert and the second date that evening of November 28 were sold out. Despite dealing with the tensions that would drive them apart (and would
Release Round-Up: Week of January 24

UPDATE - Back To This Heavenly Bliss: Joni Mitchell's "Shine" Arriving on Vinyl from Craft Recordings
Ever since the so-called "vinyl renaissance" began at the turn of the last decade, Joni Mitchell fans the world over have wondered whether her catalogue would be given the deluxe LP treatment. Sure, there was the 8-LP compilation Love Has Many Faces in 2018, and the trusty titles like Blue, Court and Spark, and Hejira have been pressed to wax in editions that rival the originals, but the same can't be said for her some of her later-career output. Heck, even For the Roses - the 1972 transitional
