You know him for such iconic tunes as “If You Could Read My Mind,” “Sundown,” and “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald,” but it’s been 14 years since famed Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot last released a studio album’s worth of new music. That situation is about to change: on March 20, Lightfoot will be releasing SOLO, his first new studio LP since 2004’s HARMONY. The origins of HARMONY are pretty fascinating in their own right: Lightfoot stumbled upon two CDs worth of songs that he’d recorded the better of two decades earlier, having written them just prior to suffering an almost

This upcoming weekend, the Dead & Company’s third annual “Playing in the Stand” concert vacation takes place in Riviera Cancun, Mexico, stretching from January 16 – 20. To celebrate the impending event, Rhino has just released the three “Playing in the Sand” shows from January 2019 on all of your favorite digital services. Over the course of three nights, 50+ different songs were performed, and they’re all here, mixed and remastered by Dead & Company’s Front of House Engineer, Derek Featherstone, and the band’s Recording Engineer, Ross Harris. Here’s the full track listing for the shows

We’re only two days away from Christmas, and we here at Rhino Records are just about to venture out of the office for the holiday. As such, we’re trying to get everything in order, including all of our posts for the remainder of 2019, which means that we want to get in at least one more plug for a fantastic compilation of holiday tunes that’s out there on Spotify for your listening enjoyment. 100 GREATEST CHRISTMAS SONGS EVER features tunes from everyone from Alma Cogan to the Wombats, and in between those very different artists, you’ll find classic holiday tunes from artists like Wizzard and

The Christmas season is on the cusp of switching over from “just around the corner” to “almost here,” which means that the number of days you’ve got left to comfortably listen to holiday tunes without getting funny looks is down to single digits at this point. As such, we here at Rhino thought we’d steer you toward a great playlist from our friends at Topsify which contains more than a few tunes from our catalog. What tunes, you ask? Well, how do these grab you? • Michael Bublé, “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas” and “All I Want for Christmas is You” • Eagles, “Please Come Home for

2020 isn’t going to be just another year for Stone Temple Pilots: on February 7, the band will be releasing the first acoustic album of their career. PERDIDA is a continuation of the musical evolution that began with the arrival of their new lead singer, Jeff Gutt, in 2017, taking the band into heretofore-unexplored territory with deeply personal songs, introspective lyrics, and instruments you wouldn’t normally expect to hear on an STP album. The first single from the album, “Fare Thee Well,” was released today, and you can check it out below: https://open.spotify.com/track

Last week – on Halloween, to be specific – was the 30th anniversary of the release of The Grateful Dead’s final studio album, BUILT TO LAST, and for those whose only frame of reference of the band was their recorded material, it might as well as been the last material ever written by the band. As it happens, however, the band continued to write songs, even going so far as to add several of them to their live sets. They never managed to complete them in an actual recording studio, however, so if you didn’t see them live, then they would’ve been off your radar. On November 22, however, that’s

This year marks Rod Stewart’s 50th year as a solo artist, and as a way to commemorate the occasion, Rhino is teaming with Rod the Mod – because once you’ve got as great a nickname as that, you never lose it – to release a new album that offers newly-imagined versions of many of his classic songs with the help of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, plus a few new tracks, too. Entitled YOU’RE IN MY HEART, Rhino is releasing two versions of this Trevor Horn-produced album: a single-CD version and a 2-CD version. The former includes 13 orchestral re-imaginings along with the two new tracks, whereas

“Strings? We don’t need no stinking strings!” That’s our impression of Robby Krieger if he was reacting to the suggestion that The Doors should add orchestral strings to “Touch Me” and if he was also one of the stars of The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. As you might imagine, we don’t really get a lot of opportunities to break out that particular impression, but we saw our chance when we read Rolling Stone’s new interview with Krieger. “I said [to producer Paul A. Rothchild], ‘Oh, God. Now we’re copying the Beatles,’ and the Stones had just done their version of the orchestra thing,” recalled

When The Replacements released their 1988 album DON’T TELL A SOUL, the end result proved to be the most commercially successful album of the band’s career, but that doesn’t mean that they were happy with how it sounded. Indeed, it’s well-documented that the LP was just a little too smoothly-polished for the band’s liking – Paul Westerberg famously said, “I thought the little things I’d cut in my basement were closer to what I wanted” – but what you may not realize is that the album’s producer, Matt Wallace, wasn’t particularly thrilled with it, either, having not been the one in charge of

Picture it: Warner Brothers in September 1986. Miles Davis, world-renowned trumpeter, had just released his first album for the label after spending the preceding 30 years on Columbia. TUTU, the album in question, was well-received, but – brace yourself, people – it was actually the second album that Davis had recorded for the label, since the first album was started but ended up being shelved. Does this sound familiar? Of course it does: we’ve told this story a couple of times now, but it’s important to tell it again, because we’re on the cusp of this heretofore-lost album being available for
