Another Little Piece Of My Heart: Unreleased Big Brother Demos Abound on 'Sex, Dope and Cheap Thrills'
Adorned with a Robert Crumb cover, Big Brother and The Holding Company's 1968 album Cheap Thrills marked the end of an era for the band. It was Big Brother's second and final album with lead singer Janis Joplin, whose incendiary talents were simply too big for any one band.

Gimme Something Real: Groove Line Celebrates Ashford and Simpson on New Anthology
Had Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson written nothing but "Ain't No Mountain High Enough," the duo would have found their place in the musical pantheon assured. But the reality is that the husband-and-wife team also wrote such American pop standards as "Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing," "Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand)," "You're All I Need to Get By," "California Soul," and "Solid (As a Rock)." They were so prolific that even top-notch material was left on the shelf; Second Disc

Review: Solomon Burke, "The Best of Atlantic Soul 1962-1965"
When Solomon Burke died in 2010 at the age of 70, American song lost one of its most towering talents. With a figure as imposing as his deep voice, The King of Rock and Soul sat upon his throne for decades, spreading the gospel...not just the gospel of music, but the Gospel itself. Tapping into his roots in church music, jazz, blues, and country, Burke was one of the pioneering artists who bridged the gap between "R&B" and "soul," and he did it at Atlantic Records. Run Out Groove's new
