Family Fearless

During its relatively short existence, British rock band Family went through a number of personnel and stylistic changes.  Cherry Red's Esoteric label has been expanding the Family catalogue, with the band's fifth album, Fearless, having arrived in a 3CD edition late last year.  A re-press of the 2CD expanded edition of their third album, A Song for Me, is due on March 1.

Right Between the Eyes: Garbage to Reissue and Expand 'Bleed Like Me'

February 14, 2024 By Mike Duquette 1 Comment

Garbage Frank Ockenfels III (2)

Garbage closed a chapter of their career in 2005 with the release of their fourth album, Bleed Like Me, in 2005. Now, they're reopening that chapter with a new deluxe edition of the album, due out in April. The deluxe Bleed Like Me follows similar expansions of the group's early discography on the Almo/Interscope/Geffen labels, where the post-grunge group - frontwoman Shirley Manson, multi-instrumentalists Duke Erikson and Steve Marker, and drummer Butch Vig - rose to fame in the '90s with

Anyone who thought they had the sound of German actress/singer Nico figured out from her work on 1967's The Velvet Underground & Nico and Chelsea Girl would not have expected what she did next - chapters in a musical career that will be explored on new reissues by Domino Recording Company.

Barbara Mandrell Precious Memories

Though Barbara Mandrell retired from performing and recording in 1997, the country superstar remains beloved.  In 2022, she made a rare public appearance to celebrate the 50th anniversary of her induction into the Grand Ole Opry; an all-female lineup of artists including Carrie Underwood, Suzy Bogguss, Linda Davis, Connie Smith, Mandy Barnett, and CeCe Winans paid tribute.  Mandrell offered her warm appreciation but did not sing; for the past 25 years, she's restricted any singing activities to

Welcome to another edition of The Weekend Stream, The Second Disc's review of notable catalogue titles making digital debuts. A light release week combines three unlikely bedfellows: a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame-inducted rapper, a classic pop crooner, and a hero of alternative rock. Eminem, The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (10th Anniversary Edition) (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope/UMe) (iTunes / Amazon) Eminem's eighth album from 2013 served as a sequel of sorts to his acclaimed third album from

We Can Work It Out

Over the years, there have been countless collections of Beatles covers.  Cherry Red's Grapefruit imprint threw its hat into the ring late last year with a fulsome new 3-CD set.  We Can Work It Out: Covers of The Beatles 1962-1966 concentrates only on the Fab Four's first years, arranging its 85 songs in the order of the original Beatles song releases.  Most, though not all, of the versions are contemporaneous, making this set a particularly enjoyable tour through the rapidly shifting pop music

Leave a Light On: Belinda Carlisle's Third 'Decades' Box Collects Single Mixes, B-Sides and More

Belinda Carlisle Decades Cornucopia

Last year, Edsel Records - the longtime custodian of The Go-Go's singer Belinda Carlisle's solo works - released the box set Decades Volume 1, a 4CD set collecting reissues of her first four studio albums: Belinda (1986), Heaven on Earth (1987), Runaway Horses (1989) and Live Your Life Be Free (1991). As all four of these had been remastered and expanded by the label in the last decade - some more than once - it sort of got lost in the shuffle, as did a similar volume that offered her other four

Eagles To the Limit

Last fall, Eagles embarked on their Long Goodbye tour.  While dates are currently expected to stretch into 2025 - hence the "long" part of the title - the band stated that "everything has its time, and the time has come for us to close the circle."  The tour currently has gigs lined up through June in North America and Europe, including stops in Chicago, Toronto, and Manchester.  Each show has amounted to a greatest-hits retrospective, and so it's no surprise that a companion audio release will

Chaka Khan Chaka

Chaka Khan announced her solo freedom with "I'm Every Woman," the euphoric opening track on 1978's Chaka. At 25 years old, Khan was already a veteran of the funk-rock band Rufus with whom she had recorded landmark hits like "Tell Me Something Good" and "Sweet Thing," but Chaka took her emotive style in a new, mainstream R&B direction. The Warner Bros. album, produced by the legendarily versatile Arif Mardin (Dusty Springfield, Bee Gees), placed Khan's powerful voice front and center with the
