This Day in ’81: Yes with Plant & Page? No, but almost! (Article)
Wednesday, April 18, 2018
37 years ago this month, Chris Squire, Alan White, and once-and-future Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page laid down some demos for a band that never really came to fruition, but if you think that lineup is perfect for a “oh, what might have been” conversation, just imagine if they’d successfully swayed Robert Plant to be the band’s lead singer, as it looked like they might on this day in 1981. “Yes was in a kind of sabbatical period,” Squire explained to Mike Tiano of the Yes mailing list. “Geoff Downes and Steve Howe started the Asia project, so Alan and I were gonna work with Jimmy and Robert

This Day in 2010: The Rascals Reunite (Article)
Tuesday, April 24, 2018
Eight years ago this very evening, The Rascals reunited on a New York City stage in the name of charity, which is – as reasons for reunions go – about as good as it gets. The performance in question took place at Robert De Niro’s Tribeca Grill with a goal of raising money for the Kristen Ann Carr Fund, but it was also an event where –not in any way coincidentally – Steven Van Zandt and his wife, Maureen, were being honored. The story of the Kristen Ann Carr Fund is best told by the organization itself, but for the purposes of this piece, here are three key moments from their secret origin, as

Rhino Factoids: Joni and Mary Meet Mama (Article)
Friday, June 26, 2015
46 years ago today, Joni Mitchell and Mary Travers - you know, the Mary who was regularly seen with guys named Peter and Paul? - joined Mama Cass, famed member of the Mamas and the Papas, for her ABC special, The Mama Cass Television Program. In an interview at the time, Cass Elliott mused on why she dug the idea of taking her act to TV. “Records can be a bad trip,” she said. “The audience can play your mistakes over and over. In a television special, they see you once and you work hard to make sure they're seeing you at your best. Of course, live audiences are the greatest of all: you have

Aquarium Drunkard Presents: Workbook Revisited (Article)
Wednesday, June 24, 2015
I used to own Bob Mould's Workbook on CD; a couple of times actually, or maybe the first time, my introduction, was via a dubbed cassette from a friend. Yeah, that’s more likely. Anyway, until recently I hadn’t heard Workbook in years. Years. The album has been reissued and slowly we’ve begun to get reacquainted. But on different terms—as I’m no longer a teenager listening in my car on the way to high school in the mornings. Relationships, no matter the kind, change and are always in flux. This is just as true for albums. Immediate (second) impression: what an incredibly heavy album. And I don

Digital Roundup: 6/22/2015 (Article)
Wednesday, June 24, 2015
New this week in the Rhino Room at iTunes: Miroslav Vitouš, Magical Shepherd: Bassist Miroslav Vitouš may not be a household name outside of houses where jazz fans reside, but between his work as a solo artist and as a founding member of Weather Report, the man is unquestionably a musical legend. Released in 1976, this album finds Vitouš working with Jack DeJohnette, James Gadson, Herbie Hancock, and Onike, and while it might not be the strongest of his solo endeavors, it nonetheless has moments of – you guessed it – magic. (Seriously, though, the title track and “New York City” are pretty

Rhino Factoids: Morrissey Reflects on Seeing the Sex Pistols (Article)
Friday, June 19, 2015
39 years ago this week, New Musical Express ran a haughty missive composed by a young gentleman in Manchester named Steven Patrick Morrissey, who felt the need to put pen to paper and express how generally unimpressed he had been by the Sex Pistols. “I pen this epistle after witnessing the infamous Sex Pistols in concert at the Manchester Lesser Free Trade Hall,” wrote Morrissey. “The bumptious Pistols in jumble sale attire had those few that attended dancing in the aisles despite their discordant music and barely audible lyrics. The Pistols boast having no inspiration from the New York /
