PP Arnold Soul Survivor

One of P.P. Arnold's early sides for Immediate Records was titled "Am I Still Dreaming?"  The song, which the artist born Patricia Ann Cole in Los Angeles wrote at the encouragement of none other than Mick Jagger, is one of the 57 songs on 3 CDs assembled by Edsel Records on the dream of a box set appropriately entitled Soul Survivor: A Life in Song.  The collection, compiled by the singer and Michael Mulligan, traces the onetime Ikette's career from her signing to Andrew Loog Oldham's label

Clapton Unplugged Enhanced

Eric Clapton's most transformative late-career work will be itself transformed this spring. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famer will reissue an "enhanced" edition of 1992's live album Unplugged, boasting a slightly reorganized and expanded 2CD or 2LP sequence, a brand-new mix and highlights from a never-before-heard audio interview with Clapton discussing the songs in his set shortly before playing them in that session. It'll be available May 9 through Surfdog Records, to which Clapton has been

Glen Campbell I Am a Lineman for the County

From the time singer-guitarist Glen Campbell recorded "By the Time I Get to Phoenix" in 1967, he became forever linked with the words and music of Jimmy Layne Webb.  Formerly a staff songwriter for Motown's Jobete Music arm, Webb had placed songs with big names (The Supremes) and lesser-known talents (Danny Day, The Contessas) when he attracted the ear of Soul City Records' Johnny Rivers.  The "Poor Side of Town" and "Memphis, Tennessee" singer was the first to release a version of "Phoenix," on

Tina Turner Queen 5LP

Even before but especially after her explosive pop comeback in the 1980s, Tina Turner more than earned the mantle of Queen of Rock 'n' Roll. This fall, a new career-spanning compilation from Rhino will reaffirm that title, with 55 of her singles (and a few rarities) on one album. Queen of Rock 'n' Roll, due November 24, spans Tina's 1975 cover of Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" - issued on Acid Queen, her second solo album (and last before escaping her physically and emotionally abusive

Definitive 24 Nights

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

Ray Charles True Genius

Ray Charles formed Tangerine Records in 1962 as part of the creative freedom he earned by jumping from Atlantic Records to ABC-Paramount.  In addition to many of his Charles' own recordings, Tangerine issued music from Louis Jordan, Percy Mayfield, Jimmy Scott, Ike and Tina Turner, and other artists championed by The Genius.  The label closed in 1973 when Charles departed the ABC roster, but the Ray Charles Foundation has recently reactivated it for a special 6-CD anthology celebrating its

Eric Clapton Box Set

Following incendiary stints with The Yardbirds, John Mayall and The Bluesbreakers, Cream, and Blind Faith, Eric Clapton struck out on his own in late 1969.  By March 1970, he'd amassed enough material to comprise his solo debut for Polydor (in the U.K.) and Atco (in the U.S.).  Released in August of that year, Eric Clapton reintroduced the guitar god.  It still showcased his fiery blues riffs but in service of a more laid-back blend of pop, soul, gospel, and country.  On August 20, UMe and

Sting Duets

While known as a singular performer - even his stage name is one word - Sting's next album is a collection of (mostly) previously released collaborations with other artists. But don't expect Duets to be a simple compilation of hits: only three of these tracks are from the former Police frontman's studio albums (four, if you count deluxe editions). Everything else is from Sting's guest appearances on albums by others and the occasional soundtrack appearance. Highlights include his 1999 hit

In the pantheon of British blues music, few have had as much influence as John Mayall.  As the leader of The Bluesbreakers in the '60s and '70s (and through to today), he's sought out and nurtured talented musicians who'd go on to become as legendary as Mayall himself.  Indeed, the roster of future legends that passed through the ranks of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers is immense.  John McVie, Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Paul Butterfield, Aynsley Dunbar, Mick Taylor, Keef Hartley, and Jack Bruce all
