So we've introduced a new feature: The Weekend Stream, which focuses on hidden gems that recently made it to digital channels that might make your playlists a little brighter!

RSDBF19 CharlieParker

With the lead-up to Record Store Day Black Friday in full swing, it's time to take a look at what Universal Music Group has prepped for the semi-annual vinyl bonanza. The label's eight major catalog vinyl releases are familiar to longtime RSD consumers. Some celebrate an iconic anniversary (as is the case for titles by U2, Frank Sinatra and Frank Zappa), one complements a general catalog title (an unreleased live James Brown album), and some just feature great music in rare

no room for rockstars

During the last boom era for the music industry, everything was big. Bigger than big, even. Whole festivals were taken on the road, rather than just anchored to one place. Lollapalooza popularized this idea in the early '90s, and the rolling festival concept hit its zenith in 1995, with the birth of the Vans Warped Tour. The tour, sponsored by the long-running skate shoe company, has catered to the ever-burgeoning scene of alternative and punk subcultures, welcoming both living legends of punk

UPDATE 4/4: We now have confirmation on the track lists for each set! Original post: Next week, another batch of ICON compilations will be released by Universal Music Group. This is particularly interesting, considering that all of the track lists for these upcoming sets have yet to be revealed. Indeed, pre-order links on Amazon and other sites don't even have all of these track lists, or cover art, finalized. (This is doubly ironic considering another batch of ICON titles is slate for May,

The next batch of Universal's ICON series is out in a few days, but we're already seeing more on the horizon. Two Icon country titles are coming out on March 22: one by Josh Turner, who enjoyed his biggest hit on the country charts last year with the No. 1 single "Why Don't We Just Dance," and Billy Currington, who's racked up an impressive nine Top 10 singles on the country charts since his debut in 2003. But that's not all - April 5 is going to see another batch of ICON discs from all
