The Summer Knows: Varese Collects Snuff Garrett's Movie Music On "50 Guitars Go to the Movies"
Between 1961 and 1973, legendary producer Thomas Lesslie "Snuff" Garrett released over two dozen albums as The 50 Guitars of Tommy Garrett, making an indelible contribution to the "easy listening" instrumental market. The multitalented Garrett was at his most prolific, overseeing the 50 Guitars albums during a period in which he produced a variety of artists including Cher, Gary Lewis and the Playboys, Vicki Lawrence, Vikki Carr, and Jim Nabors. Last year, Varese Vintage reissued The 50
Mother's Pride [Expanded Edition]
Real Gone has an expanded edition of 1973's Mother's Pride from the all-female rock group Fanny. Produced by Todd Rundgren, this would be their final album for Reprise Records. After the record's release, founding members June Millington and Alice de Buhr quit the band. A reconstituted group would record one album for Casablanca Records in 1974 before dissolving for good in 1975 (ironically after "Butter Boy" became their highest-charting single). Real Gone's expanded edition adds 8 bonus
Ramblin' [Expanded Edition]
Real Gone has an expanded reissue of Ramblin' by The New Christy Minstrels from 1963. The large vocal folk group got its start in 1961, founded by Randy Sparks. They have had many members over the years including Kim Carnes, Kenny Rogers, Gene Clark and Barry McGuire. It is McGuire who got his shot at solo fame after singing "Green, Green" from the Ramblin' album. It was the group's first major hit and it went gold in 1963. It also assured that the album itself would stay on the charts for
The Definitive Collection
Mitch Miller is probably most famous today for his tenure as the head of A&R at Columbia Records from 1950 through 1965 where he guided the careers of Dinah Shore, Jo Stafford, Ray Conniff, Johnny Mathis and Tony Bennett among others and discovered Aretha Franklin. (Also infamously known for his distaste for rock-n-roll, he reportedly passed on signing Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley and The Beatles!) Yet Miller was a popular recording artist in his own right, with most of his records begin
The Definitive Hits Collection
Diamond Rio's The Definitive Hits Collection rounds up 40 tracks from the country group's Arista Nashville tenure. One of the few bands to come out of performing out of an amusement park, they made their debut as The Grizzly River Boys (and later the Tennessee River Boys) at Opryland in Nashville in 1982. They stopped performing at the park in 1985 and began to record demos and perform in hopes of landing a record deal. It would take until 1990 when they signed with the newly-created Arista
Live! 8.24.1979
The B-52's Live! 8.24.79 was recorded just one month after the band's debut album dropped on the Warner Bros. label. It features 9 songs (including the hit "Rock Lobster") taken from that first album and also from their second album, Wild Planet, released nearly a year to the day later in August of 1980. This concert was released last year digitally and on limited-edition vinyl on Black Friday Record Store Day by Rhino and it makes its CD debut here from Real Gone Music.
Faithful [Limited Edition Orange Vinyl]
Real Gone has first-ever vinyl issue of Dusty Springfield's Faithful album. In 1971, Springfield went into the studio with the legendary Jeff Barry for what was supposed to be her third Atlantic album. Alas, it was not meant to be at the time and the album was shelved. Last year, Real Gone collected up all of the songs from those sessions and compiled them on one CD. Now, you will be able to listen to this unreleased album on the format it would have been heard on in the early 1970s. This

These (Cowboy) Boots Are Made For Walkin'! Eddy Arnold, Lee Hazlewood, Chet Atkins Sessions OUT TOMORROW!
