Halcyon Days

Last year, Cherry Red's RPM imprint closed up shop after almost 30 years and some 600+ releases.  But a new imprint was announced to pick up where RPM left off: Strawberry.  Its inaugural collection, Halcyon Days: '60s Mod, R&B, Brit Soul, and Freakbeat Nuggets has proved an auspicious debut for the imprint with big shoes to fill.

Them Belfast Gypsies

There are many peculiar stories in the annals of rock and roll, but surely one of the most peculiar is the tale of Them and The Other Them - and it's just been chronicled anew in Cherry Red/Grapefruit's release of Them: Belfast Gypsies.
