This stereo release celebrates the classic sound of the Hollywood musical.

Honey, Don't You Want A Box Set Like This?: 40th Anniversary of "Zappa In New York" Collects Rare Mix, Unreleased Concert Material
In December 1976, Frank Zappa performed four sold-out shows at New York City's Palladium. The career-spanning concerts were "theatrical, outrageous, and raucously funny," according to Ruth Underwood, who played percussion and synthesizer for the dates. The performances, she says, were "filled with startling and gorgeous music, dating from Frank's 1960s output to literally the moment the curtain went up." It's from this source material that the live double-album Zappa In New York was

Dreams Do Come True: Run Out Groove Plans Four New Titles from Ronnie Hawkins, Better Than Ezra, Fred Neil, Incredible String Band
For the last several years, Run Out Groove, has given music fans the power to vote on new vinyl titles mined from the vaults of Warner Music.

Don't Step On My Groove: Expanded Reissues of Bananarama's "Drama" and "Viva" Arriving in January

Quiet Nights: Cherry Red Reissues Doris Day's "Latin for Lovers" In Expanded Mono/Stereo Edition
Doris Day and the music of Latin America: what a beautiful combination.

Review: Golden Smog, "Down By the Old Mainstream" from Run Out Groove
What do you get when you bring together members of Wilco, Soul Asylum, and The Jayhawks and throw them into a remote recording studio in Minnesota wilderness?

Review: The Doors, "Waiting for the Sun: 50th Anniversary Edition"
Upon its release in July 1968, some might have found the title of The Doors' third album, Waiting for the Sun, to be ironic. After all, Jim Morrison, Robby Krieger, Ray Manzarek, and John Densmore, were hardly ever in pursuit of anything remotely sunny. But the album, with its rather bucolic cover shot, most certainly struck a chord with listeners in the year between The Summer of Love and Woodstock. Waiting for the Sun became the band's only No. 1 album, and included the No. 1 single "Hello,
