This Weekend: Record Store Day – Drop #2 (Article)
Thursday, September 24, 2020
Wait, what’s this about another Record Store Day drop? Didn’t we just have one last month? Yes. Yes, we did. And we’re going to have another one next month, too. Come on, people, keep up: we’re in the middle of a pandemic, but even despite this terrible fact, Rhino is still trying to make up for the fact that we couldn’t have our regular Record Store Day earlier this year by splitting the releases that we’d planned for that original date over the course of three new dates. Got it? Good. Now here’s the list of things that are going to be dropping on Saturday, and just remember: you can find the

Happy 30th: Metallica, …AND JUSTICE FOR ALL (Article)
Wednesday, September 5, 2018
30 years ago today, Metallica released the album that proved to their fans that they wouldn’t just survive the death of one of their members, they’d thrive to a degree that would surprise just about everyone. Recorded at One on One Recording Studios in Los Angeles between late January and early May 1988, …AND JUSTICE FOR ALL was always destined to be a difficult album for Metallica, as it was their first collection of original material since the death of Cliff Burton. There were those who wondered if the band could possibly stay the course in the wake of losing someone who was so key to the

On this day in 1956: The Coasters sign with Atlantic Records (Article)
Thursday, February 2, 2017
61 years ago today, The Coasters took their first big step toward the big time by signing a deal with Atlantic Records. To tell the origin story of The Coasters, one must first be aware of the band that begat them: The Robins, an R&B group which had found a certain amount of success with their single “Smokey Joe’s Café.” If the name rings a bell (and it should), that’s because it was written – not to mention produced – by the legendary composing team of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. The duo was a fan of the group, as was Atlantic Records, who offered Leiber and Stoller an independent

Rhino Factoids: Gary Cherone Becomes Van Halen’s Third Lead Singer (Article)
Wednesday, October 4, 2017
21 years ago today, Van Halen formally announced that they’d selected someone to replace Sammy Hagar as the band’s lead singer: Gary Cherone, formerly the frontman for Extreme. Tensions had been running high for awhile between Hagar and the Van Halen brothers – Eddie and Alex, of course – but while the band was in the midst of laying down some tunes for the soundtrack of the Bill Paxton / Helen Hunt hurricane-chasing action blockbuster Twister, things blew up and Hagar left the studio. With the relationship between the two factions of the Van Halen camp tenuous at best, things only got worse

Happy Birthday: Tommy Ramone (Article)
Monday, January 29, 2018
Today we celebrate the birthday of Thomas Erdelyi, the man who was – prior to adding the words “dearly departed” to his name on July 11, 2014 – the last surviving original member of The Ramones. Born in Budapest, Hungary, Tommy wound up as the drummer of The Ramones not because he particularly wanted the gig – he was originally tapped to be the Ramones’ manager and nothing more – but because the band’s original drummer, Joey, couldn’t keep up with the tempos of the band’s songs. Mind you, according to Dee Dee Ramone, there was another key reason that Tommy ended up sitting behind the drum kit

Happy 60th: LaVern Baker, LAVERN BAKER SINGS BESSIE SMITH (Article)
Monday, January 29, 2018
60 years ago this month, LaVern Baker recorded an album of songs popularized by Bessie Smith, and while she may not have scored any hit singles from the LP, she surprised more than a few critics by pulling it off at all. Given that Baker had built her career on belting out bluesy numbers like “Tweedlee Dee,” “Bop-Ting-A-Ling,” “Play It Fair,” “Still,” and “Jim Dandy,” the idea that she would team up with a collective of seasoned jazz musicians to tackle a series of numbers from Smiths’ catalog was an unexpected move, to say the least. Nonetheless, it worked. “Despite the potentially

Happy Anniversary: Roberta Flack, First Take (Article)
Friday, June 20, 2014
Today marks the 45th anniversary of Roberta Flack’s chart-topping debut album, First Take, which first hit stores on June 20, 1969, but if you would’ve sworn it came out a few years later than that, that’s actually somewhat understandable, as it didn’t actually top the charts until April 29, 1972, well after the release of her third album, 1971’s Quiet Fire. What took so long for the album to break big? Well, we can’t really answer that question, but we can tell you why it finally broke when it did: Clint Eastwood used the song “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” in his 1971 film, Play Misty

Once Upon a Time in the Top Spot: Phil Collins, “A Groovy Kind of Love” (Article)
Thursday, October 22, 2015
27 years ago today, Phil Collins took a cover of a 1966 #2 UK and US hit by The Mindbenders and turned it into a chart-topper on both sides of the Atlantic. Written by Carole Bayer Sager and Toni Wine, who also composed The Mindbenders' only other US chart hit (“Ashes to Ashes,” which hit #44), “A Groovy Kind of Love” was the only top-10 hit of the band's career, but it was a song that stuck in Phil Collins' psyche in such a significant way that he'd come up with the idea of producing a version by Stephen Bishop, even going so far as to record a demo version himself to sell the idea.

Rhino Factoids: American Bandstand Goes National (Article)
Wednesday, August 5, 2015
58 years ago today, viewers around America were first given the chance to see the Philadelphia way of poppin’ and drop in on the music they were playing on American Bandstand. It may surprise you to learn that Dick Clark was not always the host of the show: Bob Horn started out as the man with the microphone and held the position from 1952 through 1962, but he was fired after being arrested for drunk driving, and he was briefly replaced by Tony Mammarella, one of the show’s producers, before Clark took over. You also might not realize that Clark didn’t host the show all the way through to its
