Hanging by a Moment: Lifehouse to Release Greatest Hits Compilation
Pop quiz: what was the biggest single of 2001? Here's a hint: it's one of only three that never actually topped the Billboard Hot 100 for a single week. That answer would be "Hanging by a Moment," the breakthrough single by Los Angeles pop-rockers Lifehouse. Now, 17 years and four Top 10 albums later, the group is slated to release a greatest-hits compilation through UMe. Led by smoky-voiced, spiritual-not-religious songwriter Jason Wade, Lifehouse first began its run as Blyss, an alternative
In Memoriam: Adam West (1928-2017)
For many, Adam West will always be the one, true Batman. The self-described "Bright Knight" passed away yesterday at the age of 88 following a brief battle with leukemia. Yet he will always remain in the hearts of his fans not just for his indelible portrayal of the Caped Crusader, but for his eternally tongue-in-cheek good humor and considerable talent. West survived being typecast in Hollywood to establish himself to a new generation with his numerous voiceover performances on the big and

Johnny Mathis is currently touring the U.S. on his Voice of Romance tour - and indeed, for over 60 years, that appellation has been apt.

Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment: Ramones Remix and Expand "Leave Home" for 40th Anniversary
Last year's deluxe 40th anniversary edition of the self-titled debut album by the Ramones looks to be the first in a series! Rhino Records today announced a rarity packed 3CD/1LP edition of the band's second album, 1977's Leave Home, for release this summer. Leave Home was a progression for the Forest Hills punk quartet: more diverse songs written independently by the band instead of devised in the studio; a budget nearly doubled from the sessions for Ramones (plus a big shot producer, Tony
Step Inside, Walk This Way: Def Leppard Expand "Hysteria" to Seven Discs
In very many ways, Def Leppard's fourth studio album Hysteria was their biggest--and a new box set due this year looks to prove that en masse. On August 4--exactly 30 years since it was first released--Bludgeon Riffola and UMC will release multiple expanded editions of Hysteria, including a new 3CD deluxe edition, a 5CD/2DVD box set (both boasting material not on the 20th anniversary deluxe edition released in 2007) and vinyl formats. Hysteria was the culmination of more than three years
Strung Out: Wendy & Lisa's "Eroica" To Be Expanded by Cherry Red
Looking for something Prince-related to tide you over before the Purple Rain reissue hits stores? Cherry Pop Records is reissuing Eroica, the third album from Prince's longtime collaborators Wendy & Lisa. Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman were already several years removed from their split with Prince (who disbanded The Revolution in 1986); in 1987, they put their only pop single on the U.S. charts with the criminally underrated pop nugget "Waterfall." By the release of Eroica, the duo's

Review: Robert Lamm, "Time Chill: A Retrospective"
It's not much of a stretch to say that Robert Lamm is the heart and soul of Chicago. Since founding that seminal horn-rock band with Terry Kath, Peter Cetera, Lee Loughnane, Walter Parazaider, James Pankow, and Danny Seraphine, Lamm has contributed some of the band's most memorable songs including "Saturday in the Park," "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is," "Beginnings," "25 or 6 to 4," and "Another Rainy Day in New York City." Lamm's work has always been equal parts craft and

Blending original songs with a host of eclectic covers from the likes of Chris Kenner ("Sick and Tired"), Brian Wilson and Jan Berry via Jan & Dean ("The New Girl in School"), and Jimmy Reed ("You Don't Have to Go", the album marked Chilton's return to his signature blue-eyed soul sound with nods to garage rock,
Arthur Alexander: Expanded Edition
Arthur Alexander inspired artists from The Beatles to Bob Dylan with his early sixties recordings for the Dot label including "You Better Move On" and "Anna (Go to Him)." His 1972 self-titled album, produced by Muscle Shoals session veteran Tommy Cogbill, included an exciting array of songs including an early version of "Burning Love," covered by Elvis Presley shortly after this album's release. The LP saw an incomplete CD release in 1994 as part of Rainbow Road: The Warner Bros. Recordings.
Commodores: Expanded Vinyl Edition
For this new vinyl reissue of The Commodores' classic debut, Motown and UMe have gone back to the original production masters to offer seven of the album's nine tracks in longer versions!

Constant Craving: k.d. lang's Breakthrough Album to Be Expanded
This summer, k.d. lang will celebrate the 25th anniversary of her breakthrough album Ingénue with a newly-expanded deluxe edition pairing the album with previously unreleased performances from her MTV Unplugged special. Ingénue found lang moving away from the country style she had earned acclaim with in the late '80s to a more cabaret-pop sensibility--less Patsy Cline and more Edith Piaf, The Los Angeles Times suggested. Reuniting with producers Greg Perry and Ben Mink from her fourth album,
From Lulu, With Love: Edsel Reissues Bowie Collaboration and More
Lulu's first album promised Something to Shout About, and indeed, throughout a career now spanning six decades, the Scottish pop singer has always delivered with her full-throated, soulful belt. In 1972, Lulu wrapped up her tenure at Atco Records - in which she reinvented herself in full southern soul mode - and signed to Wes Farrell's RCA-distributed Chelsea label. At Chelsea, she released two albums: 1973's Lulu and 1976's Heaven and Earth and the Sky. Both of those LPs have just returned
Reissued Commodores LP is Stacked, and That's a Fact
Four decades ago, Southern funk band the Commodores established their place in the pop-soul pantheon with their self-titled fifth album. Now, Universal Music Enterprises is revisiting the album in a brand new way, as an expanded vinyl set. Commodores continued the Tuskegee, Alabama-bred group's ascendancy, balancing hip dance tracks with sweet balladry. The alpha and omega of these styles featured co-lead singer/drummer Walter Orange, trumpeter William King and bassist Ronald LaPread leading
This is a Song to All of My Friends: Howard Jones Announces New Compilation
Don't crack up, bend your brain: a new triple-disc Howard Jones compilation is coming out from U.K. label Cherry Red Records. The blonde keyboardist from Southampton was a staple of early-mid '80s U.K. pop thanks to his catchy synth-driven melodies with often heavy, introspective lyrics. This combination took "New Song," "What is Love," "Things Can Only Get Better," "No One is to Blame" and five more songs into his home country's Top 20. Success in the United States was later but slightly
Burning Love: Omnivore Reissues and Expands Alex Chilton, Arthur Alexander Titles

Blending original songs with a host of eclectic covers from the likes of Chris Kenner ("Sick and Tired"), Brian Wilson and Jan Berry via Jan & Dean
