A new documentary series, simply entitled Arnold, recently premiered on Netflix. The three-part film chronicles the life and career of Arnold Schwarzenegger. If you go back to the earliest part of the bodybuilder-turned-actor-turned-Governor's film career, you will find his two Conan films and the related Red Sonja. The 1985 movie starred Brigitte Nielsen as the red-headed warrior and composer Ennio Morricone was brought on to provide the score. That score has been given its very first vinyl
Stand Back: Rhino Releases Stevie Nicks' Complete Discography on CD, LP Box
If you'll forgive the easy reference, there's no one quite as bewitching as Stevie Nicks. Since she joined Fleetwood Mac in 1975 and helped turn them from British blues-based cult act to blockbuster pop/rock icons, her enrapturing voice and stage presence have influenced generations. In 1981, she began a parallel solo career with hits on her own that helped make her, in 2019, the first woman inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice. It's that solo material that's the subject of a

Made For These Times: The Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds" Arrives in Dolby Atmos, Mixed by Giles Martin
When The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds, the band's eleventh studio album, first was released in May 1966, response in the U.S. was surprisingly tepid. Though both "Sloop John B" and "Wouldn't It Be Nice" soared to the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100, Capitol Records was unsure how to promote the album which represented an artistic zenith, and the beginning of a new era, for The Beach Boys. It peaked at No. 10 on the Billboard 200 and was the group's first album since 1963 to miss a Gold
