The Doors Live In New York [Box] [11/10] *
Six CDs...four shows...one mindblowing ride through the Doors’ live repertoire! This set, the latest and perhaps greatest in the series of unreleased Doors concerts the band is putting out through its Bright Midnight label, offers all four shows the Doors played at New York’s Felt Forum on January 17 and 18, 1970, just weeks before the release of 'Morrison Hotel', and indeed you will hear a number of songs from that release as well as classics from all of the preceding albums. The band had rediscovered the blues after the psychedelic dalliances of 'The Soft Parade', so this is the Doors drivin’ and smokin’ their way through 'Roadhouse Blues; Break On Through (to the Other Side); Back Door Man; Five to One; Who Do You Love; Little Red Rooster; Soul Kitchen; Crawling King Snake; Wild Child; When the Music’s Over; Light My Fire; The End; Alabama Song (Whisky Bar); Money; Celebration of the Lizard; Going to N.Y. Blues; Moonlight Drive', and more, winding up with the last show’s set-closer, 'Gloria'. And, of course, you get plenty of Morrison-isms, including “Jim’s Fish Joke,” “For Fear of Getting Too Patriotic” and “Hey Mr. Light Man!” One of the most dangerous live acts in rock ‘n’ roll, unleashed and unreleased!

The Rolling Stones Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out [40th Anniversary] [11/3]
One of rock’s great live albums gets the ultra-deluxe reissue treatment it deserves with this new 3-CD/DVD set, which gets you about as close to being inside Madison Square Garden for the Stones’ two-night stand from which the album was drawn as you could possibly get! The first CD presents the original album, newly remastered, while disc two and the DVD feature unreleased performances of Prodigal Son; You Gotta Move; Under My Thumb; I’m Free, and (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction'. But wait, it gets even better—disc three serves up a dozen unreleased tracks from opening acts B.B. King and Ike & Tina Turner, and the DVD, aside from the five songs listed above, shows Keith Richards in the studio, footage of the album photo shoot and some unbelievable backstage scenes (wait till you see Keith cuddling up to Jimi Hendrix) shot by the legendary documentarians the Maysles Brothers! All packaged with a 56-page collector’s book and a 1969 tour poster postcard. NOTE: The vinyl set includes three 180-gram audiophile LPs that mirror the contents of the CDs (which are also included), etched on one side with the album art and with signatures from the band members plus a 12 x 12 replica of the original tour poster and 12 x 12 book.

Various Artists Complete Wooly Bully Sessions
One of the greatest party-time anthems of all time relegated this Dallas band to a permanent place in the novelty category—but Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs were, in fact, a very influential group who helped introduce Tex-Mex rhythms into rock ’n’ roll. That’s not to say that their prime stuff isn’t about as fun and rowdy as rock ’n’ roll gets—it is, and this import brings 'all' their prime stuff (six albums) to one 3-CD set! You get every hit—'Wooly Bully; Ju Ju Hand; Ring Dang Doo; Red Hot; Lil’ Red Riding Hood; The Hair on My Chinny Chin Chin; How Do You Catch a Girl; Oh That’s Good, No That’s Bad', and 'Black Sheep'—plus their freewheeling spins on 'Stagger Lee; Yakety Yak; Stand by Me; Mystery Train; Long Tall Sally'…92 songs including bonus tracks!

The Tremeloes Here Comes My Baby: The Ultimate Collection
Brian Poole’s backing band went on to stardom of their own, notching five hits in the U.S. and a whole lot more in the UK. But what fans of the hits don’t know is that they touched on sunny pop, fuzzed-out psychedelia, funk, soul, blues-rock and even disco over their many years together. This big 82-track set covers it all, matching the biggest hits with the cover tunes and obscurities; the hits 'Silence Is Golden; Here Comes My Baby; Even the Bad Times Are Good', and 'Suddenly You Love Me' join their spins on 'Cool Jerk; The Lion Sleeps Tonight; I Shall Be Released; Every Little Bit Hurts; Reach Out I’ll Be There', and more!

Elliot, Cass Mama Cass Television Program (dvd)
As we all know by now, 2009 marks the 40th anniversary of Woodstock, but it also marks the 40th anniversary of a unique and colorful TV special that, in its own small way, captured the spirit of the Festival and, indeed, of the decade as well as anything that ever aired on network television. 'The Mama Cass Television Program' was a pilot for a regular variety series that aired once and once only in 1969, and, after viewing it, one suspects that the vibe on the show was just a little bit too flower power for the network execs to pick it up as a regular series. John Sebastian, Joni Mitchell and Mary Travers all join Mama Cass for a singalong that’s a little slice of ‘60s music utopia (and we sure could use a little bit of that in these hard-bitten days); includes rare solo vocal performances by Cass of the Mamas and Papas hits 'California Dreamin’' and 'Monday, Monday', plus further solo turns on 'Dream a Little Dream of Me; River of Life; I Can Dream, Can’t I?', and 'Dancing in the Street'; 'Both Sides Now' Joni Mitchell; 'And When I Die' Mary Travers; 'I Shall Be Released' Cass, Joni & Mary; 'She’s a Lady' John Sebastian, and 'Darlin’ Companion' Cass & John. Exclusively yours from 'Collectors’ Choice', and coming to brighten your door and day right around July 14!

Gary Lewis & The Playboys Complete Liberty Singles
Not long after we released our complete collection of Jan & Dean singles last year, the collector community started calling for us to do the same for another great singles act of the ’60s, Gary Lewis & the Playboys. And since we are a label and a catalog of, by and for the fine people that make up that very collector community, how could we say no? We even got one of the leaders of that community, Steve Hoffman—his online site is one of the most frequented oldies message boards on the internet—to oversee the mastering, along with our old friend Ed Osborne to produce and do the liner notes (and do them he did, interviewing producers Snuff Garrett and Bones Howe, drummers Hal Blaine and Jim Keltner, singer and Gary’s “ghost” voice Ron Hicklin, and even Gary himself)! Just as was the case with the J&D set, virtually all of these original mono singles mixes have never appeared on CD; in fact, the master tapes have remained untouched for over 40 years! And man, do they sound 'good', the way they sounded when they came cracklin’ out of your radio back then. Some of these songs, especially the B-sides, have never appeared on CD in ANY version, and we’ve even dug up a promo-only rarity, 'Way Way Out', to sweeten the deal. It’s 45 tracks of classic ’60s pop-rock, the COMPLETE Liberty singles of Gary Lewis & the Playboys (many of which are pictured inside the booklet), exclusively from 'Collectors’ Choice Music'! Includes 'This Diamond Ring; Hard to Find; Tijuana Wedding; Count Me In; Little Miss Go-Go; Doin’ the Flake; Save Your Heart for Me; Without a Word of Warning; Everybody Loves a Clown; Time Stands Still; She’s Just My Style; I Won’t Make That Mistake Again; Sure Gonna Miss Her; I Don’t Wanna Say Goodnight; Green Grass; I Can Read Between the Lines; My Heart’s Symphony; Tina (I Held You in My Arms); (You Don’t Have to) Paint Me a Picture; Looking for the Stars; Way Way Out; Down on the Sloop John B.; Where Will the Words Come From; May the Best Man Win; The Loser (with a Broken Heart); Ice Melts in the Sun; Girls in Love; Let’s Be More Than Friends; Jill; New in Town; Has She Got the Nicest Eyes; Happiness; Sealed with a Kiss; Sara Jane; Main Street; C.C. Rider; Rhythm of the Rain; Mister Memory; Every Day I Have to Cry Some; Hayride; Gary’s Groove; I Saw Elvis Presley Last Night; Something Is Wrong; Great Balls of Fire', and 'I’m on the Right Road Now'.
