Mono Mondays: Delaney & Bonnie, To Bonnie from Delaney (Article)
Monday, June 30, 2014
That’s right, faithful Rhino readers: it’s time for another installment of our Mono Monday feature! We realize this is only the second time we’ve done it, so there are probably far fewer of you who swung by the site to see what new album was being added to the catalog than those who are going, “Oh, right, I forgot that was going to be a thing,” but you’re here either way, so now you know: the Mono Monday album du jour is the fourth effort from Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett, To Bonnie from Delaney, originally released in September 1970. To Bonnie from Delaney was the third studio album by the duo

Happy Birthday: Phil Anselmo of Pantera (Article)
Monday, June 30, 2014
Today marks the 46th birthday of one of the hardest-singing gentlemen in rock ‘n’ roll: Phil Anselmo, late of Pantera. Born in New Orleans in 1968, Anselmo has said in the past that he grew up as kind of a quiet kid, so one can only presume that heavy metal provided him with the highly cathartic opportunity to finally lift up his voice and scream his f***ing lungs out. His musical career began in the early ‘80s, when he served as a member of the bands Samhain – no, not the one with Glenn Danzig – and Razor White, but it wasn’t until 1987, when he was provided with the opportunity to step into

Happy Anniversary: The B-52’s, Cosmic Thing (Article)
Friday, June 27, 2014
25 years ago today, the first band that put Athens, GA on the map released the album that would go on to become the most successful effort of their entire career. The B-52’s spent the last part of the ‘70s and the first half of the ‘80s as one of the coolest, goofiest groups around, forging a solid reputation as a fun-time party band through such singles as “Rock Lobster,” “Private Idaho,” and so on down the line, but with the death of founding member Ricky Wilson in 1985, their future was in serious doubt…although – as Kate Pierson told the Onion A.V. Club in 2011, “Nobody ever said, ‘Never

Bob Lefsetz: Welcome To My World - "Bad Company Primer" (Article)
Friday, June 27, 2014
Almost completely forgotten, they were the first U.S. release on Led Zeppelin's label Swan Song and truly lived up to the appellation "supergroup"... Well, Paul Rodgers was super in Free, but that band had faded out. And Mott The Hoople only had one hit in the U.S., and we had no idea that Mick Ralphs was such a virtuoso, and Simon Kirke and Boz Burrell were minor members of hit bands but we knew who they were but we had no idea that together they'd concoct such memorable music! There wasn't a guy alive who didn't love Bad Company, and it was not restricted to males only. BAD COMPANY Why does

Once Upon a Time in the Top Spot: America, “Today’s the Day” (Article)
Thursday, June 26, 2014
Hey, kids, have you been wondering when you could finally celebrate the 26th anniversary of the date when the first single from America’s 1976 album, Hideaway, hit the top of Billboard’s adult-contemporary chart? Well, wonder no more, because… Oh, forget it. Once you’ve telegraphed a joke that much, why even bother with the punchline? Seriously, though, today really is the 26th anniversary of “Today’s the Day” topping the AC charts, making for America’s third time in the top spot, having already achieved that pinnacle with “Tin Man” and “Lonely People,” both singles from their 1974 album

Dr. Rhino's Picks #68 (Article)
Thursday, June 26, 2014
Who’s ready for some toe-tappin’, finger-poppin’ rhythms, with a dash of sophistication? Ok, well how about some smooth vocals and lead lines, with phrasing to die for? Excellent! Because this week at Dr. Rhino’s Picks, we has jazz. C’mon and dig it with me all you hep cats! ABOUT DR. RHINO A young Dr. Rhino first encountered the magic of song whilst being born in the front seat of a Lincoln Continental. As the attending physician recalls, the tune was “Touch Me In The Morning” by Diana Ross. It was a mind-blower. Over the years, Dr. Rhino listened to many, many more songs. And, after several

Happy Anniversary: Prince and the Revolution, Purple Rain (Article)
Wednesday, June 25, 2014
Here’s a piece of information that’ll make you go crazy: today marks the 30th anniversary of the release of Prince and the Revolution’s Purple Rain. Now, when we say Purple Rain, in this particular instance we’re talking about the soundtrack to the film rather than the film itself, which didn’t hit theaters until July 27, 1984, but you probably already guessed that. Either way, though, the second you saw this post pop up, we’d guess that you instantly had at least one of the album’s songs running through your brain, most likely the title track, if only because, well, the title’s right there in

Now Available – Jersey Boys: Music from the Motion Picture and Broadway Musical (Article)
Tuesday, June 24, 2014
Say, have you heard about this Jersey Boys movie? Yeah, yeah, we know, there’s been just the teensiest bit of publicity about it, but we hope you’ll forgive us if we offer a little bit more today…and, uh, then some more next week, come to think of it. (Look, it’s kind of a big deal, y’know?) After next week, though, we’re pretty sure we’ll probably be done talking about it…at least ‘til it hits home video, anyway. Today, though, we wanted to make sure that you were aware that the soundtrack to Jersey Boys is now available for your purchasing pleasure, and – better yet –it feature a mix of the

Now Available: Jackson Browne, Late for the Sky – 40th Anniversary Digital Reissue (Article)
Tuesday, June 24, 2014
When discussing singer-songwriters who started their careers in full creative bloom and stayed the course for several albums, you can’t chat about the ‘70s without citing Jackson Browne, but while his self-titled debut in 1972 was outstanding and 1973’s For Everyman can in no way be viewed as a sophomore slump, it’s often been said – and it’s not hard to understand why – that it’s Browne’s third album, 1974’s Late for the Sky, where he first truly soars. With cover art inspired by René Magritte’s painting "L'Empire des Lumieres,” Late for the Sky may not have earned Browne any traction on the

Mono Mondays: Charles Mingus, Blues & Roots (Article)
Monday, June 23, 2014
If you’ve been following our weekly Digital Roundup feature, then you’re already fully aware that, as of a few months back, we’ve gotten into the occasional habit of starting off the week by dropping a new Mono release into our digital catalog, but in the past, we’ve just casually slipped the announcement of these releases into the opening lines Digital Roundup. Now that we’ve got a few of ‘em under our belt, however, we’ve decided that we’re going to institute a regular Mono Monday feature, and – as you might’ve suspected from the title of this piece – we’re kicking it off today with Blues &
