Flying Burrito Brothers Burrito Deluxe

On the heels of recent releases including the first-ever SACD of Gene Clark's classic A&M album White Light, Intervention Records has turned its attention once more to a group of California legends with ties to The Byrds: The Flying Burrito Brothers.  Following its previous release of the Burritos' debut The Gilded Palace of Sin on both hybrid SACD and deluxe vinyl, Intervention will reissue the band's sophomore LP, Burrito Deluxe, in those formats.  The 180-gram vinyl LP will arrive by

Chris Hillman Asylum Years

Chris Hillman is surely one of rock's largely unsung heroes.   A veteran of groups including The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers, The Desert Rose Band, and supergroup The Souther-Hillman-Furay Band, Hillman last year released the acclaimed album Bidin' My Time - only his seventh solo album.  Produced by Tom Petty (one of the late superstar's last projects) with one foot in the past and another in the present, the LP reaffirmed the artist's deserved place in the pantheon.  Now, Omnivore

The Choir Artifact

Among its many exciting releases, Omnivore has a trio of albums due soon from three very different rock artists: Chris Hillman, pre-Raspberries band The Choir, and NRBQ. Last year, Chris Hillman (veteran of groups including The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers, The Desert Rose Band, and supergroup The Souther-Hillman-Furay Band) released the acclaimed album Bidin' My Time - only his seventh solo album.  Produced by Tom Petty (one of the late superstar's last projects), the LP reaffirmed

Flying Burrito Brothers Gilded Palace

Intervention Records will soon be giving the deluxe audiophile treatment on both hybrid stereo SACD (playable on all CD players) and 180-gram vinyl LP to a bona fide country-rock classic.  The Flying Burrito Brothers' 1969 A&M Records release The Gilded Palace of Sin remains a landmark album, fusing genres to create something wholly new - "Cosmic American Music," as Gram Parsons memorably named it.  It will arrive on LP in May and later in the year on SACD. Though the group's original
