Another Town Along the Road: Jackson Browne's "Running On Empty" To Be Remastered on CD, Vinyl, Digital in July
Few singer-songwriters embodied the late-'70s California sound as much as Jackson Browne. He started out writing for others in the previous decade, but broke onto the scene as a solo artist with his 1972 self-titled debut (sometimes referred to as Saturate Before Using). Five years later, he made waves with Running On Empty, a collection of 10 new songs recorded live during his 1977 tour. Several tracks were taken from the band's performance at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Maryland and the
In Memoriam: Dr. John (1941-2019)
Over a colorful life and career spanning seven decades, Mac Rebennack - a.k.a. Dr. John, The Night Tripper - left his mark as a singer, songwriter, musician, arranger, and producer spreading the gospel of New Orleans rhythm and blues. With his distinctive rasp of a growl and expressive touch at the keyboard, nobody sounded like Dr. John. Nobody looked like him, either, with his voodoo beads, colorful feathers, and larger-than-life frame. Even his speech patterns were all his own. Funk, blues,

Review: Fiat Lux, "Hired History Plus: Expanded Edition"
Fiat Lux -- from the Latin for "let there be light" - were originally a synth-pop band that shone for a brief period in the '80s. Formed in 1982 and hailing from Wakefield in Yorkshire, England, they pioneered a unique sonic stamp, the influence of which is still felt today. Their pioneering blend was full of lush synthesizer textures, acoustic and electric keyboards, and studio effects - all anchored by Steve Wright's emotive vocals. Multi-instrumentalist David Crickmore provided guitar, bass,

Off The Handle: Rory Gallagher Rarities Collection "Blues" Arrives From UMC
Eric Clapton once described Rory Gallagher as "the man who got me back into the blues."

Review: Ronnie Lane, "Just For A Moment: Music 1973-1997"
Ask any of his collaborators and they'll tell you, Ronnie Lane was special. Sure, he was an exceedingly talented singer, bassist, guitarist, and songwriter; he was also a uniquely open-minded and welcoming collaborator who was more than willing to nurture talent. But what really sets Ronnie Lane apart is the way he subverted what it meant to be a popular musician. Unlike the majority of his peers, Ronnie Lane didn't want to be a rock star. He wanted his music to reach people, sure, but he'd

Records and introduced listeners to the infectious

Yet their history on records has been a checkered one. Their 1974 debut album for Columbia Records remained shelved until 2013; a 1977 album on Arista came and went without the
