David Bowie is to release a limited edition picture disc commemorating the 40th anniversary of "Rebel Rebel".
This the latest in the run of 40th anniversary 7" picture discs released by Parlophone Records, following on from "Starman", "John I'm Only Dancing", "The Jean Genie", "Drive In Saturday", "Live On Mars" and "Sorrow".
"Rebel Rebel" was originally released in February 1974 and reached No 5 in the UK singles chart.
Neil Young brought to a close his four-date residency at New York's Carnegie Hall last night [January 10].
The set was almost identical to the three previous shows, with the exception of the addition of Buffalo Springfield's "Out Of My Mind".
Sometimes, with Bill Callahan, the focus on his records is so unwaveringly on his lyrics, it is tempting to treat them as recited poetry rather than actual music. On an old Smog record like “The Doctor Came At Dawn”, say, the music seems barely there; just a little shading to point up the melodic undertow of a baritone that often wanders closer to speech than song.
Elliott Landy's photographs for The Band's first two albums are to be collected in a fine art book, funded through Kickstarter.
Landy shot over 8,000 frames of film of the group around the Music From The Big Pink and The Band albums, only about 30 of which have been widely published to date.
Since launching his Kickstarter campaign last month, Landy has raised over $100,000 - reportedly making it the second most funded photography project in the site's history.
Twelve years after he was pulling pints in a pub in London Bridge, Brian Burton is perhaps busier than ever – he has a new Broken Bells album out on Monday (January 13), he’s been working with U2 and is rumoured to be producing the next Black Keys record. It’s been a whirlwind decade for the writer and producer better known as Danger Mouse: after making his name by daring to cross-breed The Beatles with Jay-Z, he’s gone on to work with everyone from Damon Albarn to David Lynch.
