Review: Margo Guryan's solo album, Take A Picture, originally released in 1968, has attained cult status for its enchanting blend of honeyed vocals and sophisticated songwriting. Known for her influence on soft-pop and dream-pop genres, Guryan's album features the iconic track 'Sunday Morning,' later covered by Bobbie Gentry and Glen Campbell. This reissue, now available on vinyl, features Guryan's jazz background shining through in her meticulous compositions, which have been praised for their funky sunshine arrangements and lush melodies. As a renowned songwriter, her works have been performed by artists ranging from Astrud Gilberto to Harry Belafonte. Take A Picture stands as a bridge between Burt Bacharach's sophistication and the indie pop stylings of Belle & Sebastian, influencing artists like the Wondermints and even inspiring Diablo Cody during the creation of Juno. Despite critical acclaim, Guryan preferred the role of songwriter over performer, reflecting her dedication to musical craft and independence from the spotlight.

Cat: NUM 085LP. Rel: 06 Jun 24
Review: Numero's comprehensive collection, Words and Music, offers a deep dive into the eclectic catalog of cult singer-songwriter Margo Guryan. Beyond her viral hit 'Why Do I Cry?', Guryan's music showcases a breadth of scope that extends far beyond the Billboard charts.

Numero's exhaustive set includes her entire discography, from the Take A Picture LP to vintage demos and unreleased recordings, showcasing Guryan's evolution from her early jazz influences to her later chamber pop experiments.

Cat: AAPA 05245. Rel: 23 Apr 25
Review: Upon its release in 1970, Donny Hathaway's latest album was met with critical acclaim but modest commercial success. The LP showcased Hathaway's extraordinary versatility, blending gospel, jazz, blues and soul into a cohesive whole.

Tracks like 'The Ghetto' and 'Tryin' Times' revealed his commitment to addressing social issues, while songs like 'Thank You Master' and 'Je Vous Aime' showcased his personal and spiritual depth. In the decades since its release, Everything Is Everything has grown in stature, celebrated as a cornerstone of soul music.

28 Little Bangers From Richard Hawley's Jukebox (gatefold 2xLP)
Cat: XXQLP 2075. Rel: 25 May 23
Review: A rock n' roll compilation with a twist, 28 Little Bangers From Richard Hawley's Jukebox is a brand new selector's V/A LP from the 1990s Britpop figurehead and former member of the band Longpigs and Pulp. Diving deep into his personal collection here, this album reflects Hawley's absolute dedication to a pastime few may already know him for: slowly amassing a mammoth selection of 7" records in the mode of garage rock and skiffle. Many are instrumentals, flaunting Hawley's ear for a sound that goes beyond just lyricism or theme. With star cuts from the likes of The Timekeepers and Bobby Gentry, certainly do not miss this is if you're the the right kind of British rock obsessive.

Movements Vol 12 (gatefold 2xLP + 7" + MP3 download code)
Cat: TRLP 9122BONUS7. Rel: 05 Sep 24
Review: Movements Vol.12 fills a bag of rare rhythm & blues, mod-jazz, and mid '70s funk. Launching on a note of obscure rhythm and blues from the 60s, most of the tracks heard thence were sifted from "hopelessly obscure" 7" singles; hopelessly obscure, that is, until now, when many a ravenous compilation curator seek to restore their honour. With most of the tracks doused in vocal reverb, and coming filled with oodles of commonsensical wisdom and everyday tootling advice, we segue from deepfunk to big band to mood jazz and then back to funk, the most impressive in the lattermost category having got to be the 4 Dimensions' 'Hipper Snapper' and Gus Brendel's 'Sax On The Rocks'; the instrumental side of the record is especially great.

Review: Released in 1971, marking Little Richard's dynamic return to the limelight, the album blends the eccentric performer's signature explosive energy with covers of contemporary hits and originals, all while highlighting his unique vocal prowess. Tracks like 'Brown Sugar' and 'Midnight Special' reinterpret rock and soul with his plant of flair. and overall the album, which was produced by HB Barnum, balances raw rock 'n' roll with gospel-infused ballads. Though not a commercial smash, the album indeed reaffirmed his title as the King of Rock & Roll and now it comes reissued on white wax.

The Second Coming (reissue) (red vinyl LP)
Cat: 810075 114423. Rel: 09 Jan 25
Review: It is well known that Little Richard revolutionised music as a founding father of rock 'n' roll. His flamboyant style was as important to that as his electrifying performances and genre-defining hits like 'Tutti Frutti' and 'Long Tall Sally' which very much reshaped popular culture. After years of chart success, Richard underwent a profound spiritual transformation that ended with him leaving rock for ministry in the 1960s. However, his 'Second Coming' to music bridged his dynamic artistry with gospel roots and now that album is reissued on red vinyl. It's the sound of an artist uniting faith and creativity and cemented him as both a musical innovator and a cultural trailblazer.

Nite Owls (limited milky clear black & blue splattered vinyl LP + autographed insert)

Review: Oklahoma roots rocker JD McPherson returns with Nite Owls, his much anticipated return, six years in the making, since the thought-to-be unbeatable Christmas album Socks released in 2018, as well as a mid-pandemic covers EP. For this nocturnal turn, McPherson alters his approach, sidelining the majority of the musicians that accompanied him on all previous sessions and live dates, and keeping only guitarist/sax player Doug Corcoran. Along with that change in personnel, comes a revised style that attempts, usually successfully, to incorporate McPherson's Duane Eddy-fashioned guitar (the album is dedicated to the late rockabilly icon who passed in May of this year) with a moderately new-wave infused sound.

Eddie PILLER / VARIOUS
Cat: DEMREC 1043. Rel: 17 Feb 23
Review: Eddie Piller's first volume of British Mod Sounds of The 1960s went down a real storm so it's great that he has been commissioned to do another one. This second edition is another doozy with the Acid Jazz Records and Modcast founder digging deep and turning out plenty of knowledge. Early on, British Mod bands were prone to knocking out American r&b sounds but they later evolved and took in influences from jazz-rock, prog, psychedelic soul and eastern melodies. This collection charts that musical evolution across four sides of vinyl including tunes by the OGs well as plenty of newly emerging stars from Bowie to Bolan.

Review: Eddie Piller Presents The Mod Top 40 revives the essence of '60s Mod music with a fresh twist. While many fans are familiar with the tracks, the story behind them is new and intriguing. Inspired by the Mod revival of the late 70s, Eddie delved into the original scene, guided by Randy Cozens, whose letters to music magazines in the pre-internet era led to the creation of the original Mod Top 100. Eddie's double vinyl set includes 40 essential r&b, soul, jazz and beat tracks plus personal picks for unavailable originals. This release honours Cozens' influence and offers a stylish, informative introduction to classic Mod sounds complete with new sleeve notes and track details.

Review: Eddie Piller Presents The Mod Top 100 is a fulfilling four-CD set that revisits the golden era of 1960s mod culture through a meticulously curated selection of tracks. This collection, inspired by the original Mod Top 100 compiled by Randy Cozens, offers a rich mix of r&b, soul, jazz and beat music that was integral to the iconic dancefloors of London's West End. Piller has expanded upon Cozens' influential list, including additional personal favorites from the era. The result is a vibrant homage to the Mod movement, featuring soulful voices from Doris Troy, Betty Everett, and Bessie Banks, alongside classics from James Brown, Ike and Tina Turner, and Solomon Burke. Instrumental gems from Hank Jacobs and the Ramsey Lewis Trio further enhance this comprehensive set. The release not only showcases the era's diverse sound but also serves as a tribute to Randy Cozens, whose passion and dedication helped shape the Mod scene. With new sleeve notes by Piller and support from Cozens' family, this collection is a fitting celebration of a pivotal musical and cultural moment.

Review: In 2019, soul legend P.P. Arnold made a powerful comeback with The New Adventures of... P.P. Arnold, her first studio album in decades. It saw her lay down some killer collaborations with Paul Weller, Steve Cradock, The Specials, and her son Kojo Samuel, and as such the album earned widespread praise. Arnold's UK tour ended with a standout performance at Liverpool's Grand Central Hall in October and it is that which was recorded to be presented here in her live album Live In Liverpool on earMUSIC. It's a great showcase of her commanding stage presence and effortless vocals with classics like 'The First Cut Is The Deepest' alongside some fresh new songs, all on nice heavyweight wax.

Review: In 1960, composer Leonard Bernstein called Elvis Presley "the greatest cultural force of the 20th century," praising how he revolutionised the music, language and fashion of the day.

This exceptional triple album contains 54 tracks, mostly alternate versions, with all of them offering a unique compilation of Elvis's diverse talents. It celebrates his versatility as an artist while honouring the brilliant songwriters who helped make his work legendary, flamboyant and so timeless.

Review: The year 1957 is a particularly important one for those who believe that rather than dying on the toilet in 1976, the King actually passed away - in spiritual rather than bodily terms, we hasten to add - when he joined the US military in March 1958. This is certainly Elvis at his most delightfully rebellious and threatening - the Presley that TV cameramen dare not film below the waist in full effect. Hear him race through the raw, rough and ready 'All Shook Up', the runaway train rhythm of 'Hot Dog' and others before a surprisingly reverential cover of Fat Domino's 'Blueberry Hill'. The sound of rock 'n' roll being shifted into a state of mass acceptance by probably the most famous man in the world, for several decades at least.

Burning Love: The RCA Rehearsals (Record Store Day RSD 2023) (gatefold 2xLP)
Cat: 196587 46261. Rel: 02 May 23
Review: 1972 was a pivotal year for The King. Having spent a good deal of the previous decade growing increasing focused on movies - or perhaps more accurately, getting lost in a relentless filming schedule foisted upon him - he'd reached psychological lows towards the end of the 1960s, but then re-emerged more in control of his own career decisions and re-energised, with the famous Comeback Special a major catalyst.
Three years later he hit the road for a mammoth 15 city spring tour which would spawn its own movie (aptly titled, Elvis On Tour), and set the scene for the following year's live flick follow up, Aloha From Hawaii Special. The performances proved the fact that He Had Returned, bigger and bolder than ever, as evidenced through this collection of recordings from those 1972 rehearsals.

Review: Back in 1961, before taking a break from live performance for eight years, Elvis Presley played one last gig - a benefit concert for the USS Arizona Memorial Fund at the Pearl Harbor naval base in Hawaii.

This CD presents the performance in full - complete with such classics as 'I Got a Woman', 'All Shook Up', 'Heartbreak Hotel', 'Hound Dog', 'That's All Right' and 'Heartbreak Hotel', as well as plenty of on-stage chat - alongside a previously long-buried recording of a press conference given by "the King" following his arrival in Hawaii.

Review: An ironic title, given that this, Presely's seventh album and a Billboard chart topper to boot, actually collects together many of the King's finest singles onto one LP that first saw the light of day in 1959. Presumably, it's for album fans because single fans will have already own the wax on 45. But there's no denying the world shattering efficiency of the music contained within, from 'That's All Right', his world-changing debut single, to 'Mystery Train' and 'Shake, Rattle & Roll', the latter being a particular dancefloor filler in its time.

Review: Light In The Attic teams up with Laurie Anderson and the Lou Reed Archive for a thrilling retrospective, Why Don't You Smile Now: Lou Reed At Pickwick Records 1964-65. An expansive selection of songs all written by Lou Reed, during his mid-60s stint as the staff songwriter for the long-defunct label Pickwick Records, this is a rare glimpse of a master rock musician stepping out of the limelight over the course of 25 songs, yet still letting the form and contour of his voice and sensibility be heard. All this was achieved before Reed had at all launched his career with the Velvets; it may indeed be said that this pubescent 60s period was the firelighter to Reed's flame, as the label specialised in soundalike records that emulated the major pop hits of the day - it's no wonder Reed would absorb such emulations and take them in as his own, albeit with a Century-defining twist. Channelling everything from teenybopper pop to soul-inflected garage rock, whether byJeannie Larimore, The Hi-Lifes or The Hollywoods, we get a thorough look-in here as to what made Reed and his contemporaries tick, and what Reed made tick in turn, before the fame.

Review: Why Don't You Smile Now: Lou Reed at Pickwick Records 1964-65 offers a fascinating glimpse into Lou Reed's early work as a hired songwriter before his iconic days with the Velvet Underground. Released by Light in the Attic Records, this 25-song anthology captures the raw beginnings of Reed's journey in music. The double vinyl format showcases Reed's ability to navigate a range of styles, from the surf-infused doo-wop of the Hollywoods' 'Teardrop In The Sand' to the gritty garage-rock of the Roughnecks' 'You're Driving Me Insane.' This collection not only features Reed's contributions to Pickwick Records, a label known for its budget sound-alike recordings, but also includes the pivotal track 'The Ostrich,' a song that would eventually lead Reed to meet John Cale, laying the groundwork for the Velvet Underground. The anthology also highlights Reed's first collaboration with Cale on 'Why Don't You Smile,' which was later covered by Spiritualized. With detailed liner notes from Richie Unterberger and an essay by Lenny Kaye, this double vinyl release offers a deeper understanding of the roots of Reed's legendary career.

Featuring artists from Joe Meek to Buzzcocks, Patrick Cowley, Tom Robinson Band, Lesley Gore, Billy Fury and Little Richard, it encapsulates the hidden and overt narratives of LGBTQ life in post-war music. Starting with the groundbreaking success of Little Richard in 1955, the compilation captures the coded expressions of the 50s and 60s, mirroring the societal secrecy and oppression faced by the gay community. As the music progresses into the early 70s, it reflects the era's burgeoning openness, marked by the influence of icons like David Bowie. The tracks span pop, Tamla, soul, glam rock, and the early funk and disco sounds that dominated underground New York clubs, ultimately leading to the disco explosion of the late 70s. This compilation is a tribute to freedom and the intertwined worlds of music and sexuality. Some artists identify as LGBTQ+, others are included for their impact on or by the gay aesthetic, making a heartfelt homage to the diverse and rich history of music shaped by the community. A vibrant and significant cultural journey.

Sinseerly Yours (gatefold yellow vinyl LP)
Cat: CLMN 12030LPC5. Rel: 11 Jul 24
Review: Thee Sinseers' debut album, Sinseerly Yours, cements their cult status among soul enthusiasts. Led by Joey Quinones, the East Los Angeles band crafts a unique blend of retro soul, low rider ballads, and contemporary R&B. The singles 'Can't Do That To Her' and 'Hold On' showcase their range from upbeat 60s harmonies to somber, old-school ballads. The album's ten tracks offer more of this delightful variety, with highlights like the lush 'Keep On Calling,' 'Give It Up You Fool,' and the title track, reminiscent of the 60s Impressions. Quinones' falsetto evokes the soul of Mark Greene, adding to the intoxicating sound. A standout surprise is 'Taking Back,' a honking-sax instrumental with a live, party vibe. Described as "vintage blissful soul," Sinseerly Yours is poised to be one of the standout soul albums of the year.

Review: Irma Thomas, born Irma Lee in New Orleans, is routinely hailed the Soul Queen of the city. Once billed among Aretha Franklin and Etta James, Thomas eventually found her own recognition as an originary light repping New Orleans, less an international, commercial success story. Beginning her career in 1959, she was one of many voices who sung for a watershed moment r&b and soul, as labels like Minit and Imperial helped solidify the genre's identification with Louisiana, with its designs on the Southern soul genre at large. In 1966, Thomas released her second solo album, now reissued here through MOV. Including the iconic song 'Anyone Who Knows What Love Is (Will Understand)', which was co-written by Randy Newman and country star Jeannie Seely, the track became a hit, finding a toehold on the Billboard Hot 100. Beyond its commercial success, the ballad has garnered widespread recognition, notably appearing in several episodes of the hit series Black Mirror. But it's the record as a whole that really stirs our guts, obviating Thomas' early-career openness to romance and excess: "oh-oh, take a look at this girl, I'm the girl that wants you..." goes the title track...
