Bingo! Cherry Red, Robinsongs Celebrate The Whispers on 4-CD Anthology
The story of The Whispers began in Los Angeles circa 1963 when two groups - The Scott Twins and The Eden Trio - came together to share in their love of doo-wop and sweet street-corner sounds. Named The Whispers by Dore Records' Lou Bedell, the group released a string of singles in the 1960s before landing at New York's Janus Records in 1970. Two years later, they released their first album on Janus, beginning a string of almost two dozen LPs - eight of which hit the U.S. R&B top ten and
Look Out (Here Comes Tomorrow): Run Out Groove Announces Deluxe Edition of "More of the Monkees"
Following its recent deluxe LP reissue of The Monkees' debut, Run Out Groove is turning its attention to More of the Monkees, the group's sophomore LP featuring the chart-topping "I'm a Believer" and top 20 hit "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone." More of the Monkees displaced its predecessor from the top of the Billboard 200 where it remained for a staggering 18 weeks. A sign of the times, it became the first pop-rock LP to top Billboard's year-end sales chart. In addition to Neil Diamond's 'I'm
Review: Joni Mitchell, "The Reprise Albums (1968-1971)"
Joni Mitchell fiercely announced her independence with "I Had a King," the haunting soliloquy which opens her 1968 debut album, Song to a Seagull. "I can't go back there anymore," she proclaimed. "You know my keys won't fit the door/You know my thoughts don't fit the man. They never can...they never can..." The song is bold, wise, and flecked with a graceful equanimity as the singer declares her freedom both from a husband who "lives in another time" and the societal constraints of the day.

(Yo No Quiero Ir A) Chelsea: Elvis Costello's "This Year's Model" Is Reimagined as "Spanish Model"
Elvis Costello cheekily titled his 1978 sophomore album This Year's Model. But while the artist may have borrowed Presley's name and Buddy Holly's glasses, he wasn't just that year's model...he was built to last.
