I Saw the Light: BMG Collects Hank Williams' Radio Gospel Performances on "I'm Gonna Sing"
I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin/Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night/Praise the Lord, I saw the light... Though Hank Williams is often remembered today as much for his hellraising ways as for his venerable songbook - a remarkable one that crossed genre lines via such stone-cold standards as "Hey, Good Lookin'," "Cold, Cold Heart," "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," and "I Can't Help It (If I'm Still in Love with You") - he was brought up in the church and its music stayed with

Vinyl Me, Please Releases Lavish "Story of Philadelphia International Records" Anthology
The legacy of Philadelphia International Records is as mighty as the famous three men most associated with the label: co-founders and songwriter-producers Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff and songwriter-producer-conductor-arranger Thom Bell.

Review: The Replacements, "Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash: Deluxe Edition"
Everything about The Replacements' debut was fast and furious. Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash, first released in 1981 on the Twin/Tone label, introduced eighteen rip-roaring nuggets primarily from the pen of Paul Westerberg. More than half were under two minutes long, and only two cracked the three-minute mark. While the lyrics were filled with aggression and the spirit of youthful rebellion, they weren't devoid of self-aware humor. And though the sound was primal, abrasive, and

OUT TOMORROW: Real Gone Celebrates B.J. Thomas on "In Remembrance: Love Songs and Lost Treasures"
B.J. Thomas first reached the U.S. top 10 in 1966 with a heartfelt cover of his father's favorite Hank Williams song, the plaintive ballad "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry." The Oklahoma-born, Texas-raised artist had his sights beyond just the country genre, however. His always authentic and altogether compelling voice was equally at home in the genres of pop, R&B, rock and roll, contemporary Christian, bossa nova, and gospel. He became a songwriter's singer, bringing to vivid life the music
