Run Out Groove is heating up 2018 with its first release of the year. The label, which allows fans to vote every month on its next audiophile-quality deluxe vinyl title drawn from the Warner Music Group vaults, recently announced the rarities-packed collection Professor Bizarre's Funkology from New Orleans' one and only Dr. John, as well as unsung R&B great Lou Johnson's Sweet Southern Soul, and the first vinyl reissue of Ministry's Greatest Fits from the Industrial band. Now, ROG will

There They Go Again: New Velvet Underground Vinyl Box Features '1969' Compilation
In the spring of 1967, after sitting on it for about a year, Verve Records issued The Velvet Underground & Nico, a strange yet ultimately captivating album by a New York band comprised of singer/guitarist Lou Reed, instrumentalist John Cale, guitarist Sterling Morrison and drummer Maureen "Moe" Tucker - with vocal contributions from Nico, a German singer and model introduced to the album at the behest of artist and album producer Andy Warhol. Producer Brian Eno summed the album up better
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Joe Jackson, "Summer in the City: Live in New York"
Intervention Records has been looking sharp with deluxe vinyl reissues of some of Joe Jackson's most treasured albums, including I'm the Man, Night and Day, and yes, Look Sharp! Now, the label has returned to the singer-songwriter-piano man's oeuvre with one of his lesser-known, latter-day efforts: Summer in the City: Live in New York. The album was recorded in August 1999 in the intimate environs of Joe's Pub at the Public Theater, and released on Sony Classical. It came as a surprise - and

The People's Tenor: Pavarotti Celebrated with New Compilation, Massive Box Set
Luciano Pavarotti's career began at the Teatro Municipale in Reggio Emilia in northern Italy, playing Rodolfo in Puccini's La bohème in 1961. It ended at the Winter Olympics in Turin in 2006 where, before a live and televised audience of millions, he delivered one final rendition of his signature aria, "Nessun dorma," from Puccini's Turandot. In those 45 years, he was inarguably the world's most beloved operatic tenors, crossing over on a level few international stars of any genre had ever
Soldier of the Heart: Intervention Celebrates Judee Sill with Two New Reissues
Q: Who was the first artist to release an LP on David Geffen's Asylum label? A: It wasn't Jackson Browne, Joni Mitchell, or The Eagles - though all three all released albums in the label's first year of 1972. It was Judee Sill. Who is Judee Sill? In her all too short lifetime, the artist released just two albums, both of which revealed an unusual yet mesmerizing voice as a singer and a songwriter. Both of those LPs, Judee Sill (1972) and Heart Food (1973), have been newly reissued on
Bound for Glory: Dylan, Baez, Paxton, Havens, Collins Celebrate Woody Guthrie on New Bear Family Box
Bob Dylan once said that, upon hearing Woody Guthrie's songs, "it was like I had been in the dark and someone had turned on the main switch of a lightning conductor." Steve Earle opined that "Woody is my hero of heroes and the only person on earth that I will go to my grave regretting that I never met." No less a literary eminence than John Steinbeck noted, "Woody is just Woody," before explaining, "Harsh voiced and nasal, his guitar hanging like a tire iron on a rusty rim, there is nothing
Unchained Melodies: Van Morrison Blends Standards with Originals on New "Versatile"
Less than three months after the release of his 37th studio album, the rhythm-and-blues-based Roll with the Punches, the one and only Van Morrison is back with No. 38. On December 1, Legacy Recordings will issue Versatile - certainly an apt title for the man since his earliest days fronting Them to his immersions in jazz, soul, rock, blues, pop, and beyond. Roll with the Punches featured five original compositions from the prolific singer-songwriter alongside blues classics by artists such

Review: David Bowie, "A New Career in a New Town: 1977-1982"
I. Art Decade Keep Up with David's Changes, read an insert from the David Bowie Fan Club packaged in original pressings of the artist's 1977 album Low and painstakingly replicated on the edition included in the new 11-CD (or 13-LP) box set A New Career in a New Town 1977-1982. Indeed, it was no small feat to follow the restless artist's many transformations. 1975's Station to Station saw the formal introduction of The Thin White Duke, a nattily-dressed but rather unpleasant fellow; who

Saturday, October 14, marked 40 years since the passing of one of America's legendary vocalists, Bing Crosby.

Green Day Declare Themselves 'God's Favorite Band' On New Compilation
The only thing more unusual than Green Day declaring themselves God's Favorite Band on their new greatest hits compilation is the path that took them to such a humorously lofty claim. The East Bay, California trio--singer/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer Tre Cool (replacing original drummer John Kiffmeyer in 1990)--were fixtures of the Berkeley DIY club 924 Gilman Street, performing and producing snotty punk releases on the independent Lookout Records at the
Welcome To Your Life: Tears For Fears 'Rule The World' With New Collection and New Tracks
If you caught them during their recent co-headlining U.S. summer tour with Daryl Hall & John Oates, you know that Tears for Fears have lost none of the power and style that made them a juggernaut of '80s pop. Now, with a new album on the horizon (their first in more than a decade), the duo are reintroducing themselves to audiences with a newly curated single-disc collection. Rule The World: The Greatest Hits showcases all the most popular songs from the Bath-born duo of
Mike Love, Not War: Beach Boy Preps New Solo Album
Mike Love is a lot of things--a charter member of The Beach Boys who owns the band name and continues to tour with it alongside longtime touring member Bruce Johnston (currently in support of Wild Honey and 1967 - Sunshine Tomorrow), a devoted meditator, perhaps the most memorable speaker at a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction--but right now, he's a guy with a solo double album coming out. Unleash The Love, due out November 17 on BMG, features 13 new tracks produced by Michael Lloyd and
Mystify Me: INXS Ready New 'Kick' Box
Come over here: INXS' landmark album Kick is getting another deluxe reissue for its 30th anniversary. The Australian rockers' sixth album was the one that propelled the group to their greatest international success, particularly in America, where some six million copies were sold and four singles ("Need You Tonight," "Devil Inside," "New Sensation" and "Never Tear Us Apart") all reached the Top 10 of Billboard's Hot 100. And that success has parlayed itself into not one, not two, but three
Your Songs: Elton John Plans New "Diamonds" Collection
Five decades ago, an aspiring singer/songwriter named Reginald Dwight, frontman for a band named Bluesology, answered an ad in the New Musical Express placed by an A&R man for Liberty Records. At the ensuing meeting, Dwight was given a stack of lyrics written by someone who'd answered the same ad: an up and coming lyricist named Bernie Taupin. Dwight wrote a melody to Taupin's lyrics, placed the ensuing song in the post--and thus started a partnership that continues to this day, with scores
