Do You Wanna Boogie, Hunh? Real Gone, Second Disc Collect Two Tons o' Fun on "Get the Feeling: The Complete Fantasy/Honey Recordings"
Before they achieved stardom the world over with "It's Raining Men," Weather Girls Martha Wash and Izora Rhodes Armstead made waves in the thriving San Francisco music scene as Two Tons o' Fun (and, later, The Two Tons).

In 1980, they struck out on their own and teamed with legendary Motown veteran Harvey Fuqua (who
Self Expression: Lou Christie's "Gypsy Bells" Collects Rare, Unreleased Columbia Sides

Earlier this year, Ace Records attempted to answer this question with Gypsy Bells: Columbia Recordings 1967, a compendium of the released and unreleased material recorded by the Italian-American falsetto singer during his short and rocky tenure with the label. Expectedly, it's a

Rock and Roll Heart: Omnivore Celebrates Joe Grushecky with Career Anthology, New Album
The title of the 1979 debut album from Joe Grushecky and The Iron City Houserockers proclaimed Love's So Tough. The Pittsburgh native and his band captured their city's blue-collar milieu, recalling a harder-edged E Street Band. The group took their sound an expansive step further with 1980's Have a Good Time But Get Out Alive!, a bar-band classic which welcomed guests including Ian Hunter, Mick Ronson, and Stevie Van Zandt.

Rolling Stock: "Starlight Express" Returns to Vinyl to Celebrate New London Production
Andrew Lloyd Webber first became interested in adapting Reverend W. Aubry's Thomas the Tank Engine stories in 1974. A pilot episode for a proposed television series was produced but ultimately not picked up. But the Jesus Christ Superstar and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat composer didn't give up on the idea of musicalizing a story with trains. He took a step towards that goal with the 1977 single "Engine of Love" for American singer Earl Jordan, and then developed an animated

Today, Rhino announced one more jewel in Mitchell's crown. Her 2022 box set The Asylum Albums (1972-1975) has been reissued with a twist: all four albums
