The Second Disc's Record Store Day 2023 Shopping Guide
Record Store Day! It's that time again where music lovers and vinyl flippers get together at their favorite physical music retailers and wait in line to snag some treasured albums - almost all of which are pressed on vinyl instead of CD (or, you know, sold on secondary marketplaces for above their retail value). It's certainly easy to be cynical about this stuff, but the crux of the idea still lives: find some music that moves you, something from an old favorite you've maybe never heard

Summer Sessions: Rusted Wave and 1984 Publishing Premiere '80s Scores by Alan Silvestri, Danny Elfman
The '80s not only saw tremendous soundtracks from many of the established composers in Hollywood, but a new generation of musicians making a mark on the silver screen, as well. Next month, two of the best film music discoveries of the '80s will be the subject of new reissues from Rusted Wave Records and 1984 Publishing (known for printing photo books about "Weird Al" Yankovic as well as the memoir by the late Marie Fredriksson of Roxette fame). The labels will prep vinyl and CD releases of
Could It Be Magic: Barry Manilow's Debut, in Rare Original Mix, Heads to Vinyl
Barry Manilow will mark the 50th anniversary of his solo career with an exciting vinyl reissue of his debut album - pressed in a way that's not been heard and seen together since it first came out. The beloved singer/songwriter has been on a hot streak lately that most artists his age would sell their souls for. Already a celebrated draw at the Westgate Las Vegas (his 14th year as a concert act in Sin City, and fast closing in on as many performances at the venue as Elvis Presley), Manilow
Marshall Crenshaw to Have a 'Field Day' with Another Expanded Reissue
Yep Roc Records thrilled fans of great power-pop when they expanded and reissued Marshall Crenshaw's long out-of-print 1982 debut album last year, hitting vinyl for Record Store Day and following up soon after on CD and digital. This summer, the magic continues with a similar reissue for Crenshaw's second LP Field Day. After the delirious magic of Crenshaw's first LP - including the Top 40 hit "Someday, Someway" and a host of other great tunes - even the best of predictions wouldn't have had
Hard Rock Road: Esoteric Collects Steppenwolf's "Epic Years"
BUY NOW FROM AMAZON.COMWhile Steppenwolf will always be remembered for classic rock and oldies radio perennials "Born to Be Wild" and "Magic Carpet Ride," the band was much more than just those two hits.

UPDATE 4/17/23: New Four Seasons Mega-Box Will Have You Swearin' to God
The Four Seasons are one of America's most resonant and enduring pop/rock outfits. Between the group and its distinctive frontman Frankie Valli, they've scored around a dozen Top 10 hits - seven of which went to No. 1. Their early output in the '60s held its own against the British Invasion. They maintained hits into the disco era, and a cover of one of their songs hit the upper reaches of the Billboard Hot 100 in 2021. The original quartet was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and

Neon Knights: Black Sabbath's Dio-Era Live Album Gets Remixed Reissue

Now, the live document they issued chronicling this era will get a new look for its 40th anniversary. Live Evil, the 1983 double album that followed Dio, guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler and drummer Vinny Appice as they toured in support of Mob Rules and Heaven and Hell the

Wonderful Tonight(s): Eric Clapton Announces '24 Nights' Box Set
Like Cheap Trick and Budokan or The Allman Brothers Band and the Beacon Theatre, Eric Clapton has a kind of bond with London's Royal Albert Hall. He's played there more than 200 times in the last 60 years - more than any other artist - and condensed two runs of shows at the venue into the live album 24 Nights in 1991, the start of a critical and commercial renaissance for the guitar legend. On June 23, Rhino rolls out a series of products telling an even deeper story of the period that
Wait: Paul Simon Announces New Folk Project for Release in May
Last year, rumors began abounding that Paul Simon was back in the studio recording a new album which would be his first since 2018's In the Blue Light and first of original material since 2016's Stranger to Stranger. 2018 was also the year when Simon said goodbye to the road with his Homeward Bound tour. That farewell tour culminated on September 22 in an unforgettable hometown show at Queens' Flushing Meadows Corona Park, but Simon has revealed that he's far from done with music. Those
Where the Devil Don't Stay: Drive-By Truckers Plan "Director's Cut" of 'The Dirty South'
Nearly 20 years ago, genre-bending Southern rock outfit Drive-By Truckers got their first shot of mainstream success with an intriguing concept album called The Dirty South. Now, the group is revisiting that release on The Complete Dirty South. It's a release that frontman Patterson Hood is deeming a "director's cut" of the original work, featuring an expanded, altered track list and a few songs that are remixed, featuring new vocals or both. (All tracks have been remastered by Greg
It's Raining Discs: SoulMusic Promises Tons O' Fun with Weather Girls/Martha Wash Collection

Rated X: Second Disc, Real Gone Expose "The Flasher" With First-Ever Reissue of Psych-Rock Rarity from Pool-Pah, Rupert Holmes
1973: the sexual revolution was on, streaking was taking college campuses by storm, and Deep Throat was edging pornography ever closer to the mainstream. Against this backdrop, a talented New York band with the unlikely moniker of Pool-Pah teamed up with up-and-coming singer-songwriter, musician, and arranger Rupert Holmes to write and record an unforgettably far-out soundtrack blending rock, psychedelia, jazz, prog, pop, and electronica. It had to be heard to be believed...and far too few
Fragile Thing: Cherry Red Expands Big Country's Final Album with Stuart Adamson
Today would have been the 65th birthday of Stuart Adamson, the brilliant leader of Scottish rock group Big Country. Sadly, Adamson left us far too soon in 2001, losing a battle with depression and alcoholism - so perhaps it is fitting that today we bring the news of Cherry Red expanding the last work by the classic line-up of the band. Following similar releases for the band's material through the '90s from the label (including the expansive Out Beyond the River set and a deluxe edition of
Still Beatin': Huey Lewis and The News Get Expanded Japanese Albums, CD/DVD Collection
Have you heard The News? The sweet pop/rock/soul sound of San Francisco's Huey Lewis & The News has sadly gone silent in recent years, thanks to its one-of-a-kind frontman's battle with Ménière's disease, which causes intermittent hearing loss. But a surprise new reissue campaign courtesy of Universal Music Group's Japanese division promises the most comprehensive look at the band's blockbuster catalogue of the '80s and early '90s. UMG will remaster, expand and reissue the six albums the
Mighty Real: Second Disc Records, Real Gone Music Celebrate Sylvester on "Disco Heat: The Fantasy Years"
When the self-described "disco queen" known as Sylvester stepped on a New York stage opening for Chaka Khan, the local press was entranced. One newspaper approvingly noted that he made "David Bowie look like Lawrence Welk." Nothing was too outrageous for Sylvester. But at his core, he was serious about music and about breaking down the walls of identity. In appearance and demeanor, the unapologetically gay San Francisco star challenged the gender binary long before such discussions were in
You Made Me Love You: Judy Garland's Nightclub Debut Restored for Premiere Release
Judy Garland wasn't even 35 years of age when she quipped on the stage of Las Vegas' New Frontier Hotel, "That's the noisiest, loudest opening number...I'm getting a little old for it! Without taking a step, I get tired!" If the superstar was, in fact, tired, she hardly showed it. Thanks to the High Definition Tape Transfers label, the opening night of Garland's first Las Vegas engagement is now available in sparkling sound for all to enjoy.
