Red Hot and Blue

Since 1989, the Red Hot Organization (RHO) has been combatting the scourge of HIV/AIDS.  Red Hot has primarily raised money through the creation of music compilations beginning with the 1990 release Red Hot + Blue: A Tribute to Cole Porter.  Now, that star-studded release and numerous others have come to digital and streaming services to continue raising money for the charity. RHO co-founder John Carlin, an entertainment lawyer spurred into action by the devastating losses suffered by the New

Pogues BBC

Rhino is expanding one of their recent Record Store Day "drop" vinyl sets for CD: a collection of BBC performances by Celtic-punk group The Pogues. The BBC Sessions 1984-86 features six sets recorded over three years by the raucous ensemble, including a 1984 set for John Peel's radio program when they were still going by the full name of Pogue Mahone (a rough approximation of the Gaelic phrase for "kiss my ass"). Two Peel sets, one each for David "Kid" Jensen and Phil Kennedy (released for

If you've been following these pages for the past few weeks, you've likely noticed an awful lot of coverage about Record Store Day!  Well, the day is nearly here!   Tomorrow, Saturday, April 21, music fans and collectors will flock to their local independent record stores to celebrate both the sounds on those round black platters and the very concept of shopping in a physical retail environment. To many of us, both are a way of life.  We're doubly excited this year because one special title was

With the last two weeks of the year so light on catalogue titles, we figured we'd combine it all into one post. Below you'll find two new titles for this week, and two for the next! The Pogues, 30 Years (Rhino U.K.) Here, in one box, is all of the Irish folk-rockers' original albums, including new mixes of debut Red Roses for Me and Peace and Love, plus a bonus unreleased live show from 1991 with Joe Strummer of The Clash assuming lead vocal duties.

pogues 30 packshot

Celtic rockers The Pogues are releasing a new box set that collects all of their studio albums - two newly-remixed just for this release - and an unreleased live album with a very special frontman. Led by unforgettable frontman Shane Macgowan, The Pogues deftly combined the raucous traditions of traditional Celtic folk songs and sharp-edged punk rock, gaining a considerable live following when opening for The Clash on one of their last tours. A contract with Stiff Records followed, yielding Red

Since the birth of the greatest hits album, the preparation of such a product has become a bizarre form of performance art. Do you include only hit singles or sprinkle in favorite album cuts? Do you keep things chronological or craft some sort of fancy playlist for maximum listening pleasure? How intricate do you make the packaging - do you need liner  notes, song-by-song credits and all that? The fires of these debates are further stoked with the release of The Very Best of The Pogues (Shout!
