THE SHANGRI-LAS Remember

Charly SNAX625CD

“This compilation leaves no stone unturned and includes a handful of rarely-heard radio commercials and truly bizarre etiquette advice on dating. What more could a troubled teen with a fragile heart want?”
Record Collector

“...delicious melodramas driven by anguish and full of dangerous thrills.”
Mojo

THE RED BIRD STORY

Charly SNAX626CD

“Motown might have been 'The Sound Of Young America', but for just over two years Leiber and Soller's Red Bird label vied for that legend, too, yielding a preposterous number of hits - 20 in their first 13 months - thanks to a peerless songwriting team and a stable of acts who stirred up every crazy emotion.”
Mojo

THE MILLER SISTERS
Got You On My Mind

Charly SNAM952CD

“Enjoy a first class compilation, showcasing a great duo that deserved to be more than just a footnote to the Sun sound.”
UK Rock

MALCOLM YELVINGTON
Rockin' With My Baby

Snapper Music SROLLCD833

“It's quite a revelation to hear these tracks, which are a neat blend of country and rock & roll with hints of jazz and Western swing”
Steve Leggett

“...a glorious mixture of country swing and rockabilly.” Now Dig This

GENE PITNEY
The Many Sides Of Gene Pitney / Only Love Can Break A Heart

RPM Retro 881

“Only Love Can Break A Heart is a masterclass in melodic misery, especially 'True Love Never Runs Smooth', 'Donna Means Heartbreak' and the saloon bar sobfest 'I Should Try To Forget (But I Keep Forgetting To Try)'. The chief detour from the theme is the Bacharach & David-penned 'The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance'. Nothing like a vengeful gunfight to lighten the mood, eh?”
Record Collector

REAL WILD CHILD
Rockin' Rollin' favourites for kids of all ages

Snapper Music SROLLCD501

“I spotted this on one of my regular trips to Sainsbury's and couldn't help but check out the tracklisting. At first it seemed like just another of those ten-a-penny compilations that adorn supermarkets, garages, bookshops and haberdashery emporiums these days. However, once past the usual suspects - Cochran, Holly, Richard, Presley, Haley etc. - I noticed this was not just your average 'oldies' collection.”

COLOSSEUM: Morituri Te Salutant

Sanctuary/Universal 2709352

Pieced together with the active assistance of Jon Hiseman, Morituri Te Salutant features extended highlights from Colosseum’s original albums as well as numerous previously-unissued studio and live outtakes, including BBC session material, the aborted late Sixties single 'Tell Me Now' and a host of alternative recordings from the tour that was immortalised on what many believe to be the band’s definitive work, Colosseum Live. Lavishly packaged with hitherto unpublished photos and a 10,000 word essay, Morituri Te Salutant is the final word on one of the most individual and iconoclastic British jazz/rock/blues bands to emerge from the musical and cultural revolution of the Sixties.
