A Marshmallow World: Sony Reissues Original "Dean Martin Christmas Album" On CD
Over the years, Dean Martin's holiday recordings - primarily encompassing the 1959 Capitol album A Winter Romance and the 1966 Reprise album The Dean Martin Christmas Album - have been packaged and repackaged on CD ad infinitum. Yet the latter title had never seen a true reissue on CD, though all its tracks had been issued on CD, on various releases. Hip-O's 2008 A Very Cool Christmas presented the album in its original 10-track sequence, but retitled it, added new artwork, and a bonus
Yeh Yeh! Matt Bianco Expands Sophomore Album On Cherry Pop
Cherry Pop will reissue an expanded edition of Matt Bianco's self-titled sophomore album this week, with a dazzling array of bonus tracks. Released in 1986, Matt Bianco introduced a new line-up of the U.K.-based continental jazz-pop group; vocalist Basia and keyboardist Danny White had both left the group (the duo would collaborate on every Basia solo album afterward); vocalist Mark Reilly subsequently recruited Mark Fisher, who'd played keyboards for Wham!, to share creative responsibilities
A Dream In Your Heart: Real Gone Announces a Dionne Warwick Rarities Collection and Expanded Jimmy Webb "Angel Heart"

Both feature legendary artists who got their start in the 1960s. First up is Odds & Ends: Scepter Records Rarities, a collection of rarities from Dionne Warwick taken from her time at Scepter Records. Due on January 12, 2018, it features new liner notes by our very own Joe Marchese based on his brand-new
Give Me All Night: Hot Shot Reissues, Expands Carly Simon's "Coming Around Again"
"I know nothing stays the same/But if you're willing to play the game, it's coming around again..." With the release of 1987's Coming Around Again, Carly Simon proved she was not only willing to play, but still most definitely in the game. After the diminishing commercial (though not artistic) returns of her Warner Bros. and Epic releases of earlier in the decade, Simon's debut album for Clive Davis' Arista Records was a return to form. It yielded four major hits, all in her intensely
Lovin' You: Capitol/UMe to Reissue Minnie Riperton's Breakthrough Album
No one else could make us feel the colors that Minnie Riperton brings--and this winter, a newly expanded edition of her breakthrough album, 1974's Perfect Angel, will honor the singer for what would have been her 70th birthday. Born on the South Side of Chicago, Minnie Riperton was a musical pro when she released Perfect Angel in 1974. Blessed with a five-octave range and a compelling high soprano, she'd sung background vocals on many Chess Records releases and had joined the label's

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
Before Love Went Out of Style: Cherry Red Reissues Dudley Moore's "Today"
Long before he got caught between the moon and New York City, engaged in Foul Play, or counted to 10, Dudley Moore was a well-known renaissance man: a talented comedian, writer, actor, composer, and classically-trained jazz musician. Cherry Red's El imprint has recently reissued Moore's 1972 trio album, Today, featuring his interpretations of original songs and favorites by Henry Mancini, Burt Bacharach, and the team of Harry Warren and Mack Gordon. Today, originally released on Atlantic
Tori Amos, Richard Hell Lead Rhino's Record Store Day Black Friday Slate
Rhino Records is planning 11 titles for this year's Record Store Day Black Friday--and two of them are fairly unexpected catalogue treats from two very different artists. First up, the label has announced an upcoming expanded edition on CD and LP of Richard Hell & The Voidoids' Blank Generation. Hell, a founding member of Television and one of the key figures of early punk rock in New York and beyond (his personal style of spiked hair and safety pins is said to have influenced Malcolm
Fill Your Nights With Song: Real Gone Expands Debby Boone's "You Light Up My Life" for Its 40th Anniversary
Forty years ago this week, Meco's "Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band" was knocked from the top of the Billboard Hot 100 after a two-week run at the peak position. The new chart-topper would remain in that spot for an additional 9 weeks and become the biggest-selling single of the entire 1970s. And what was that song? You might first guess it was perhaps something by the Bee Gees, who were in their own historical chart-run at this moment. But it was actually "You Light Up My Life" by Debby Boone.
Peaches En Regalia: Frank Zappa's "Halloween 77" Shows Collected On New Box Set

Hitch a Ride To Rockaway Beach: Ramones Light Fuse On "Rocket To Russia" Reissue
A third 40th anniversary deluxe edition is coming from the Ramones and Rhino, featuring the band's third album, Rocket To Russia. With punk rock reaching a fever pitch in the summer of 1977, the Queens quartet and Leave Home's producer and engineer, Tony Bongiovi and Ed Stasium, again came together to record another hard-hitting album of urgent but melodic tunes. Drawing from surf rock influences (and featuring a significantly bigger budget than their previous two records), Rocket To Russia
I Want My Baby Back: RPM Collects Los Bravos' Best on "Black Is Black"
What 1966 record from a Spanish band with a German lead singer was written and recorded in England before becoming a top 5 hit in America? The answer, of course, is "Black is Black," the No. 4 smash from Spain's Los Bravos. Cherry Red Records' RPM imprint has recently released a definitive 2-disc compendium from the group. Black is Black: The Anthology 1966-1969 boasts 60 tracks on 2 CDs from the band most often thought of as a "one hit wonder" in the United States. Los Bravos was formed

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

On December 8, Bing Crosby Enterprises will team with UMe for new two titles in the Bing Crosby Archive Collection. New Tricks: 60th Anniversary Deluxe Edition and Among My Souvenirs: More Treasures
