Got a Hold on Me: Christine McVie's Solo Works Returning to Print
The loss of longtime Fleetwood Mac keyboardist Christine McVie last year remains deeply felt by fans of the long-running group's unbeatable pop/rock songs. Today, on what would have been her 80th birthday, Rhino Records is releasing unheard music by (and in tribute to) her, with plans to reissue two of her solo albums this fall. On November 3, Rhino will reissue a remastered version of 1984's Christine McVie on CD and vinyl, with a cola-bottle clear color variant of the latter available

One of the most legendary live recordings from The Doors is finally coming out in its most definitive form.

A Thing Called Love: The Darkness Ask for 'Permission to Land...Again' in Deluxe Edition of Debut
It might've been the last thing anyone expected to hear on the radio in 2003: a swaggering rock tune with faux-operatic vocals and a guitar tone reminiscent of Queen's Brian May. Was it some lost outtake from the '70s? No: it was the seriously fun "I Believe in a Thing Called Love," which heralded one of the country's most unique bands: The Darkness. Now, 20 years on, the group is revisiting their first recordings with an all-out box set edition of their debut album Permission to

Tear It Up: Iconoclassic Reissues Two Rock-and-Roll Gems from Billy Burnette
Last autumn, Iconoclassic Records brought Rocky Burnette's 1979 solo debut The Son of Rock and Roll to CD. Tomorrow, July 7, the label is turning its attention to Rocky's cousin Billy Burnette for another pair of CD premieres.

Not So 'Last' Splash: The Breeders' Landmark Album Gets Reissued with Two Unheard Tracks
The Breeders' Last Splash - one of the most treasured albums of the '90s alternative rock explosion - will be newly reissued this fall with a small but intriguing selection of bonus material. The 1993 album was given the deluxe treatment for its 20th anniversary in 2013 - but, it turns out, the original analog tapes could not be located to create that set. In the decade since, they've been successfully located, and in addition to newly-remastered favorites like "Cannonball" and "Divine

Ahead of their Peace Out Tour in 2023-2024 - closing a significant chapter in the book of one of the best (or perhaps the most) American rock bands - Aerosmith will issue a brand-new career spanning compilation across multiple formats in August. The simply-titled Greatest Hits shares a name with the group's first compilation, issued back in 1980, but it's being billed as an "ultimate" product, and packaged as an entirely different set. It is, of course, the first compilation issued since the

On July 28, it'll be a nice day to start again: Billy Idol's self-titled debut album will be reissued on CD with a bonus live show. Released in 1982, Billy Idol was the first full-length solo effort from the British rocker with the spiky bleached hair and the inimitable sneer.

Stand Back: Rhino Releases Stevie Nicks' Complete Discography on CD, LP Box
If you'll forgive the easy reference, there's no one quite as bewitching as Stevie Nicks. Since she joined Fleetwood Mac in 1975 and helped turn them from British blues-based cult act to blockbuster pop/rock icons, her enrapturing voice and stage presence have influenced generations. In 1981, she began a parallel solo career with hits on her own that helped make her, in 2019, the first woman inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice. It's that solo material that's the subject of a

Elvis' 'Aloha' Beams Into Box Set for 50th Anniversary
America said Aloha to Elvis Presley in between a trip to the Dark Side of the Moon and a visit to the Houses of the Holy when the once and future King's Aloha from Hawaii album earned a berth between Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin atop the Billboard chart. Presley's Honolulu concert of January 14, 1973, preserved on records by RCA, was monumental in every respect. The most expensive entertainment broadcast to that point in time, Aloha from Hawaii was viewed by an estimated audience of over one
