Rhino's 10-CD Woodstock Set "Back To the Garden: The 50th Anniversary Experience" Delivers the Goods
Fifty years ago this summer, more than 400,000 fans convened at Max Yasgur's farm for a music festival that would come to define not only the era, but the entire ethos of music festivals to come. With every passing decade, the magic of Woodstock has been celebrated and, indeed, re-marketed to new generations of music fans. The '90s saw two new Woodstock-branded festivals and an array of 25th anniversary products, including a compilation called Woodstock Diary and a 4-CD box set. To mark the
Inherit the Earth: The Replacements' New Box Set Premieres Unreleased Tracks, Including Tom Waits Session, Live Concert, and More
Don't tell a soul? The Replacements are releasing their first-ever box set. The hell-raising Minneapolis rockers have proudly told the story of stealing a clutch of tapes from their onetime home of Twin/Tone Records and chucking them into the Mississippi River back in 1987. But happily, the band was more careful about subsequent masters, and the year later, held onto a stash of tapes that now will provide the basis of Dead Man's Pop, a 4-CD/1-LP set reimagining their sixth album and third for

Review: Norma Tanega, "Walkin' My Cat Named Dog" [Green Vinyl Reissue]
Our friends at Real Gone Music have long been combing the vaults of the major labels in search of overlooked classic albums that deserve another moment in the spotlight. The Second Disc was able to take a listen to one of the label's newly reissued limited-edition titles - Norma Tanega's Walkin' My Cat Named Dog - which returns to vinyl in a special bright-green color variant. Tanega's folky '60s pop has found new life on TV shows and compilations, but her debut has never been reissued on
Review: Tear Gas, "Piggy Go Getter" and "Tear Gas"
Tear Gas, the Scottish rock outfit, released a pair of albums in the early '70s that vividly highlighted their talents for guitar-based rock. Though the band kept up a rigorous touring schedule, it only really paid off once a few band members joined with Alex Harvey as The Sensational Alex Harvey Band. Still, Esoteric's reissues of Piggy Go Getter (in its first-ever official CD release) and its follow up Tear Gas show the band's early promise. The Glasgow-based group originally formed in the

Never Say Die! Varese Bringing 'Goonies' Score Back To CD
Varese Sarabande is setting sail with a wide CD release of Dave Grusin's score to The Goonies this summer! Recently a staple of Varese's vinyl catalog, it's the first time the music's been put on CD since a limited release in 2010. A movie this offbeat - a gang of misfit kids in Oregon follow a pirate treasure map and face off against a family of crooks - had to have an interesting score, and The Goonies didn't disappoint. Grusin, known equally for his lengthy scoring career (The Graduate,
Happy Rovin' Cowboy: BMG Presents Archival Hank Williams Radio Sessions on "The Complete Health and Happiness Recordings"
Few have made such a profound impact on the country music landscape as Hank Williams, whose singular talents, enduring songs, and inimitable vocal style continue to influence scores of up-and-coming talents. In 1949, though, Hank wasn't quite the star he wanted to be, nor the star we remember him as. He'd had some popular songs and scored a headlining gig on The Louisiana Hayride , but it wasn't until he performed on The Health & Happiness radio program that his meteoric rise to fame began

Salt of the Earth: ABKCO Revisits "The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus" With Expanded Deluxe Sets
The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus is one of those great time capsules of the rock and roll era. Filmed at the Intertel TV Studio in Wembley on December 11, 1968 and directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg, the movie was part rock show and part sideshow. The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus featured the original lineup of The Rolling Stones - Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Charlie Watts, and Bill Wyman - who served as the main music draw and the night's hosts. They were joined by a
