In addition to Second Disc Records and Real Gone Music's CD collection of Al Stewart singles coming out tomorrow, September 8, Real Gone has five vinyl reissues from the 1980s-2000s from a variety of genres hitting store shelves. We've got all of the details below. German thrash metal band Paradox was founded in 1986 in Würzburg, Germany by Charly Steinhauer and Axel Blaha. That same year the group recorded a demo which garnered the attention of Roadrunner Records, who signed the band and
Is Your Love in Vain? Bob Dylan Expands Budokan Live Album for New Box Set
There was something about Midwestern-born rockers on the CBS Records roster making stops at the Nippon Budokan Hall in Japan. In 1979, Columbia issued not one but two live albums from the Tokyo venue, both simply titled At Budokan. While the one by Cheap Trick essentially made them stars in their home country, a double album of rearranged hits from Bob Dylan sharply polarized fans and critics. Now, on November 17, the Dylan camp is re-examining the artist's time in Japan with a brand-new box

Heart-Shaped Box: Nirvana's "In Utero" Returns in 30th Anniversary Box Set Editions
The culmination of the band's tragically short career, Nirvana's In Utero initially stoked fears over its raw, aggressive, and seemingly uncommercial sound. To say that those fears were unfounded is an understatement: the 1993 album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and the U.K. Albums Chart, and has since been certified 6x Platinum in the United States. On October 27, it will return from Geffen/UMe in a multi-format 30th anniversary edition. As TSD opined back in August 2013 as the

Review: Van Morrison, "His Band and the Street Choir," Jaco Pastorius' "Word of Mouth" in Rhino Hi-Fi
Don't want to discuss it/I think it's time for a change... Van Morrison's 1967 debut album for Bert Berns' Bang Records, Blowin' Your Mind, came close to living up to its title with the lovably breezy "Brown-Eyed Girl" nestled alongside more challenging fare such as "T.B. Sheets," and everything in between: pop, folk, Latin, rock-and-roll, blues. But the Northern Irish singer-songwriter truly came into his own with a move to Warner Bros. the following year. The mystical, hypnotically
Party It Down: "We're An American Band" Explores U.S. Hard Rock with Grand Funk, Vanilla Fudge, Mountain, Spirit, Nazz, More
We're An American Band: the new 3-CD collection from Cherry Red's Grapefruit Records is titled after Grand Funk (Railroad)'s 1973 chart-topping anthem. The song penned by Don Brewer and produced by Todd Rundgren was a semi-autobiographical look at life on the road, complete with parties, groupies, and guest stars. The story goes that the title phrase developed from a friendly argument between Grand Funk and Humble Pie about British vs. American rock. Brewer insisted that wasn't the way it

This Is It: Sepia Salutes Late, Great Rose Marie on "Rose Marie Sings: The Complete Mercury Recordings and More"
The year was 1929. At the age of six, Rose Marie Mazzetta headlined a Warner Bros. Vitaphone short film entitled Baby Rose Marie: The Child Wonder. The star was already a showbiz veteran, having begun performing at the age of three; at five, she was offered a seven-year contract by the NBC radio network. Though Rose Marie would soon drop the "Baby," she would remain a wonder as, simply, "Rose Marie" for the entirety of her extraordinary career which ultimately spanned ten decades until her

Do the Stanley: Cherry Red, Esoteric Launch Stackridge Reissue Series

On September 29, the series will jump ahead to the sixth Dan album and arguably Donald Fagen and Walter Becker's crowning achievement: 1977's Aja.

A1 on the Jukebox: 7a Reissues Dave Edmunds and Rockpile's "Tracks on Wax 4" and "Repeat When Necessary"
Throughout a career spanning six decades, Dave Edmunds never strayed far from the primal power of genuine rock-and-roll. After stints in various bands - most notably, Love Sculpture - the Welsh singer-guitarist struck out on his own and scored a U.K. Christmas chart-topper in 1970 with a cover of Dave Bartholomew's "I Hear You Knocking." In January 1972, he released his first solo album: Rockpile. Its title would figure prominently in Edmunds' future as he co-founded a band of that name with
Cherry Red's El Label Celebrates Burt Bacharach, Leonard Bernstein on New Box Sets
In recent months, Cherry Red's El imprint has turned its attention to a pair of legendary American composers. Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990) and Burt Bacharach (1928-2023) were born just a decade apart, though Bacharach lived more than three decades longer than Bernstein. Neither man was born in New York City, but both created much of their remarkable work there. Both were proud Jewish Americans, and both wrote for the musical theatre. An American in New York: Leonard Bernstein - The City
