| Mimi Roman - I'm Ready If You're Willing 1-CD Digipak (4-plated) with 25-page booklet, 25 tracks, playing time approx. 62 mns. -- She was a Jewish girl from New York who attended the same school as Barbara Streisand and Neil Diamond, but wanted to be a country singer. Her first record was a rare Hank Williams song that he wrote for Ray Price. Mimi performed on big country radio jamborees, changing her name from Rothman to Roman, and telling people that she was from California. Some of her songs have appeared in compilations from Bear Family and on other labels. This is the first full-length CD devoted to her music. -- Owen Bradley, head of Decca-Records in Nashville for years, would joke that he was charged with 'a country singer who wanted to go pop, and a pop singer who wanted to sing country.' The country singer was Patsy Cline. The pop singer was Mimi Roman. Changing her name from Rothman, she recorded for Decca in New York and Nashville, but never got the all-important break. She even worked the grueling Philip Morris caravan, touring with legends like Carl Smith and Ronnie Self, and recorded right on the stage of the Ryman Auditorium, home of the Grand Ole Opry. Somehow, it didn't work out for her, although her records have become highly collectible. For the first time, here is her story and here are her finest records in one place. A little untold gem of Fifties musical history. Mixed bag of high quality Honky Tonkers, Patsy Cline style strollers, teenage smoothies ala' Connie Francis plus obscure and completely unknown pop-pearls like "Dance With Me (Cha Cha Cha)" Great Discovery! |

| Minits - Follow Your Heart - The Sounds Of Memphis Recordings From the 1950s right through to the 1970s Memphis was a record town, awash with studios, record companies and distributors. Its industry proved to be an irresistible magnet for artists from all over the South and often beyond, especially black artists. Country acts would head the few hundred miles up the road to Nashville, and the West Coast was a hub for rock’n’roll’s golden dream, while Memphis – sometimes known as Soul City USA – attracted aspiring soul or R&B performers. The closer you were to Memphis, the greater the pull. The Minits were from not too far away in Montgomery, Alabama. The three-girl vocal group we celebrate in this CD headed to Memphis and released a mere three singles on the Sounds Of Memphis label. Their records were moments of pure pop-soul magic. Their second 45, ‘Still A Part Of Me’, commands a price of well into three figures due to its dancefloor appeal. Left in the vault were five further numbers which we have released slowly over the past few years. ‘Hook Line and Sinker’ is a Dan Greer tune with a snappy pop hook that must have been a candidate for a single but remained unissued until recently. ‘Natural Reaction’ and ‘Stepping Stone’ are both in a similar high quality pop-soul vein. The trio’s version of Aretha Franklin’s ‘Pullin’’ is another thing altogether – the rhythm section hits a groove and takes this one straight to the dancefloor. ‘If You Don’t Like My Apples (Don’t Shake My Tree)’ was found in the vaults only last year and has become my favourite Minits discovery so far. It’s a slamming slice of double entendre sister funk that should make it into DJ sets as soon as it starts to become known. For some reason their records failed to catch on and the Minits never became the stars their records suggest they should have been. The girls are almost completely forgotten today, yet the music they left behind reveals an act that should have achieved more. It may well have been that, despite top of the range production values and high quality songs, there is just too much of the south left in the recordings for them to have sat comfortably on pop radio. Then again, it may just be that they were never championed by the right people at the right time. What is for sure is that their recorded legacy makes for one hell of a listen. A lot of money was clearly spent on styling and taking wonderful photographs of the girls in a bid to represent them as stars. It wasn’t to be but those wonderful photographs now allow us to give you not just some great music but a stunning booklet to go with it. By Dean Rudland (Ace Records) |

| Monitors - Say You - The Motown Anthology 1963-1968 You have to feel for those artists that didn’t get the breaks at Motown. Most that didn’t were every bit as good as those that did. Their lack of success was the result of being some way down a pecking order dominated by acts such as the Temptations, Four Tops and Supremes. Even the second wave of higher profile acts had to battle to be heard above the big noise made by the hits of those groups. With hindsight, the Monitors hardly stood a chance. Their lack of real success is no reflection of how excellent Richard Street, Warren Harris and Maurice and Sandra Fagin were as a group. Richard Street’s pleadingly soulful lead was good enough to win him a gig with the Temptations in 1971, where he replaced the group’s original lead singer Paul Williams. The material the Monitors recorded, some of which Street co-wrote, was frequently supplied by some of Motown’s biggest names, including Smokey Robinson and Mickey Stevenson. They were recorded under the same conditions as their bigger counterparts, and the end results were invariably as satisfying. That their discography can boast merely a couple of modest soul chart hits is a mystery that even Sherlock Holmes would be at pains to unravel. Chart hits or not, the Monitors have always been revered by the Motown collector cognoscenti, and a CD devoted to their extremely fine recordings has long been overdue. As part of our series of officially approved compilations from the Motown vaults, Kent is delighted to present ‘Say You!’, an extensive overview of the group’s time at the company. Their one album, “Greetings! We’re The Monitors”, is featured in its entirety in stereo. Motown diehards will be delighted to know that the same tape used to manufacture the original UK vinyl LP has been used to master our CD. The album, which includes stereo mixes of all their V.I.P. and Soul A-sides (and some Bs), is joined here by two exceptional non-LP flipsides and a staggering 12 previously unissued tracks spanning the group’s entire tenure with Motown. Ten of these have never been issued before in any shape or form, while the versions of ‘Crying In The Night’ and ‘Cry’ are considerably different to those available on other CDs. All of these unissued masters are featured in their original mixes, made in the 1960s at the time of their recording. Whatever it was that caused Motown to pass over these tracks for release in the 1960s, it wasn’t a lack of excellence. “Say You!” is a superb addition to Kent’s small but growing list of vintage Motown collections, a list you can expect to be added to very soon.

With fully detailed liner notes this is a comprehensive survey of The Moonglows illustrious career and is well worth a listen! |

| Moontones - Yes You Do ! Perusjäseniltään kuusimiehinen The Moontones on toiminut vaihtelevalla aktiviteetilla aina noista rockabillyn boomi-vuosista saakka. Kokoonpanon muodostavat Leif Knief (laulu), Pekka Miettinen (laulu ja kitara), Petteri Littu (kitara), Jari Pätsikkö (basso, foni), Timo Qvintus (foni) ja Reijo Kolu (rummut). Solisteja lukuun ottamatta koko remmi hakkaa käsillään tahtia ja osallistuvat taustalauluun. Vahvistusta settiin antavat fonisti Arto Mutanen sekä pianisti Hannu Elonen. Kummitusmusiikkia! Sillä nimellä tällaista tavaraa takavuosina kutsuttiin. Pelin henki on jump & jive sekä r&b, eli rock and rollia ajalta ennen koko ilmiön syntymää, joskin pari makoisaa puikahdusta tehdään myös 60-luvun puolelle. Ajatus siitä, että tällainen pumppu on veivannut jossakin kellarissa näin pitkään pääsemättä esiin muuten kuin lähipiirinsä tapahtuvan diggailun kohteena tuntuu aivan käsittämättömältä. Parempi kuitenkin myöhään, tai ehkä bändi on ”vain” halunnut soitella omaksi ilokseen. Äärimmäisen tyylikkäästä lopputuotteesta kuuluu läpi lajityypin pitkä harrastus sekä asiaan hartaudella paneutuminen. Niitä kaikista tutuimpia coverointeja on vältelty sutjakkaasti, eikä bändi pyri rikkomaan mitään nopeus- saati volyymiennätyksiä. Hyväksi vertailukohdaksi käy KnockOut Greg Blue Weather -yhtyeineen. Peli polkaistaan käyntiin reippaalla boogiewoogiella (1, James ”Widemouth” Brown), joka keinuttaa ja temmeltää erinomaisessa, lähes pitelemättömässä menossa. Jump on pohjana myös raidalla (4, Roy Hawkins), jonka nasevasti säröllään oleva soundipolitiikka virkistää. Melankolisuus ja villi viidakkomainen rytmiikka kohtaavat onnellisesti raidalla (5, Jimmy Nolen), ja kitara soi eläväisesti. Roy Brown on tämän genren kuninkaallisia ja häneltä on valikoitunut mukaan peräti kaksi esitystä. Raita (6) nyt on reipasta jump-ilkamointia jos mikä ja foni saa kyytiä. Ravi on ehkä vielä hitusen rivakampaa Brownin toisella esityksellä (10), biisin tempo on lähes pelottava. Vaan eipä puutu vauhtia levyn päätökseltäkään (12, Doc Starkes), meininkiä kuvailee parhaiten termi pitelemätön. Liikkeelle ei olla lähdetty pelkän lainamateriaalin varassa, ja bändin uusiotuotannosta on kuultavissa, kuinka tarkkaan lajityypin aihepiirit on tutkailtu. Perinnettä kunnioitetaan, mutta sitä ollaan myös valmiita viemään eteenpäin. Raidan (2) tekijä on mystinen ”Boba”, nimi joka löytyy jokaiselta uusioraidalta. Itse biisi liikahtelee säröisän riffin varassa letkeästi jumppaillen. Kierrokset nousevat selvästi raidalla (7), rockaavan jumpin meno maistuu makoisalta nytkin, eikä seassa ole mitään jäähdyttelyfiiliksiä. Raita (11) on puolestaan silkkaa noveltya ja keskitempo-esityksessä on oikein reippaasti kieli poskessa -meininkiä. Setistä irtoaa vielä komea r&b-slovari (3, Zuzu Bollin?), joka viljelee vahvaa tunnelatausta. Blues-numero (8, Jimmy Hughes) on uhkaava, jopa hieman pelottava biisi, jota kannattelee vallan mainio säröllään oleva riffi. Ja onhan täällä yksi duettokin: siivu (9, Little Anthony & Blues Imperials?) liikkuu keskitempoisena ja vähän alakulotunnelmissa, mutta toimii hienosti. Vierailevana solistinaan vahvaääninen Kati Markkanen, jonka kanssa duetoi Leif Knief. Jos nyt aloit pohtia tarvitsetko tämän levyn, niin katso mitä otsikko sanoo: ”Yes You Do!” Mikke Nöjd (Blues News) |

| Mouse And The Traps - Fraternity Years Mouse & the Traps are known principally for their “Nuggets” classic ‘A Public Execution’, a Dylan cop so brazenly authentic it even had the hallowed bard’s promo men fooled. Based in the city of Tyler, Texas and evolving from a group of pickers who populated Robin Hood Brians’ recording studio, Mouse (Ronnie Weiss) and his band ruled the region in the latter half of the 60s. The Traps made a name for themselves not only with some incendiary performances but several regional hits, with ‘Execution’ making the national charts in 1966. Signed to the venerable Cincinnati indie Fraternity, for whom they were to cut a dozen singles, for years there were rumours amongst collectors that a Mouse & the Traps LP existed on the label. There never was, but now Big Beat has decided to condense the contents of their well-received Mouse & the Traps CD anthology “The Fraternity Years” into one all-killer vinyl edition. It’s the kind of power-packed set fans would have hoped for back in the day, as the record showcases the band’s two very different but nevertheless compatible sides. On stage they were known for a tight and rocking showmanship, yet in the studio they expertly crafted folk-rock and pop gems with a deft production touch from Brians that oozed commercial appeal. Each single release coupled speaker-shredders such as ‘Maid Of Sugar’ and ‘Lie, Beg, Borrow And Steal’, with radio-friendly items such as ‘Like I Know You Do’, ‘Cryin’ Inside’ and an almost-but-not-quite smash in ‘Sometimes You Just Can’t Win’ (as a bonus, it is featured here in a rare and previously unissued incarnation from late 1966, before being sweetened for eventual release). Now, the best of the band’s recorded output has been newly remastered for wax. With such a precise distillation of their recorded legacy, the world can once again marvel at the quality and consistency that seemed to come naturally to Mouse & the Traps. “The Fraternity Years” LP is a fitting tribute to these fine musicians.

Olemme sopineet myös tälle syksylle omien keikkojen lisäksi muutamia specialyhteiskeikkoja. Tarjoamme yleisölle siis extraherkkua! Varjokuva feat.

Varjokuva on yksi Suomen eniten keikkailevista orkestereista ja on tähän mennessä julkaissut jo kolme omaa albumiaan - ja nyt odotellaan Mr. Brethlessin ja Varjokuvan yhteisalbumia! |

| Mr. Gasser & The Weirdos - Hot Rod Hootenanny Hot Rod Hootenany featured an eye-popping, full-color cover illustration by Roth. Upon release in 1963, it created quite a stir among surf/hot rod aficionados and entered the lower reaches of the Hot 100. Falling out of print after the crest of the hot rod craze, this album quickly became a prized collectable. Out of print for decades, Sundazed Music is gassed to roll this LP out of the garage and back onto your turntable! Pressed on competition-ready vinyl and compact disc, packaged in a retina-searing reproduction of the original Big Daddy artwork, it will go from zero to 33 1/3 RPM in seconds! FLOOR IT!!! A true "renaissance man," Ed "Big Daddy" Roth excelled in a number of pursuits. Artist, cartoonist, car-customizer and pinstriper were but a few of his specialties. Growing up in California, surrounded by the surf and hot rod movements of the late '50s, Roth's expansive imagination was set in motion and popular culture would never be the same. Working closely with Ed Roth, who assumed the nom du disc "Mr. Gasser," Fred Rice carefully selected vocalists and musicians for the recording session. Gary Usher assembled and led the vocal talent, which included Jackie "Robyn" Ward, Chuck Girard, Richard Burns and Darlene Love. And how's this for a guitar line-up: Glen Campbell, Jerry Cole and Howard Roberts! On drums you've the great Hal Blaine. Meanwhile, Cliff Hils anchored the bass position and Leon Russell played piano while Steve Douglas wailed on sax. What a fabulous group of "Weirdos"! The combination of A-list players and a top-notch studio produced a superior-sounding LP, every bit the sonic equal of contemporary recordings from stars like the Super Stocks and the Beach Boys. |

| Mr. Gasser & The Weirdos - Rods N' Ratfinks When it came time to follow up the success of Hot Rod Hootenanny, Capitol's Fred Rice wisely stuck to the arithmetic of the first LP: great Ed "Big Daddy" Roth-inspired songs + the best session musicians + Capitol Studios = another outrageous LP! Rods n' Ratfinks continued the party started on the first album under the direction of Gary Usher. Piling in the Weirdos' woodie for this road trip were Glen Campbell, James Burton and Billy Strange on guitar, Ernie Freeman on piano, Carol Kaye and Steve LaFever on bass, Earl Palmer on drums and Steve Douglas on sax. Gary Usher, Richard Burns and Chuck Girard returned to do vocal duty. And, of course, "Big Daddy" himself created another screaming-technicolor-suitable-for-framing LP cover! Looking at the illustration, if you peep past the wacked-out jalopy, you'll spy Rat Fink hanging at least two as he shoots the curl. Take that, Sponge Bob!

| Mr. Gasser And The Weirdos - Surfink ! originally released in 1964 on Capitol Records. In April 1964, Mr. Gasser and the Weirdos reconvened in Capitol Studios to record the third installment of their surf rod trilogy, Surfink! It was their hottest album yet, combining clever parody songs like "Surfer Ghoul" with knock-out instrumentals like "Midnight Run" and "Santa Barbara" that stand alongside the best singles of the surf era. Fuel-injecting the Weirdo wagon this time around were Jerry Cole, David Gates and Neil Levang on guitars, Leon Russell on piano, Steve LeFever on bass, Earl Campbell on drums and Steve Douglas on saxophone. The vocal department again featured Gary Usher, Richard Burns and Chuck Girard. The sonic quality of the original recordings is astounding! Saxman Douglas rips, honks and wails with absolute authority while the guitars of Cole, Gates and Levang cover the gamut of classic six-string tones. Palmer's drum kit and cymbals sound so crisp you'd swear he was right there in the room and LeFever's bass anchors the bottom beautifully. The album is a testament to vintage analog recording and one that could also serve double duty as an audiophile test LP. A true "renaissance man," Ed "Big Daddy" Roth excelled in a number of pursuits. Artist, cartoonist, car-customizer and pinstriper were but a few of his specialties.

| Muddy Waters - You Shook Me 2CD The Chess Masters Vol. 3 1958-1963. Six years after the last set of Muddy Waters’ Chess recordings by Hip-O Select, the boutique label will release You Shook Me: The Chess Masters Volume 3 1958-1963 next week. While Waters’ profile was well on the rise before the period covered on this two-disc set – having put singles like “I’m Your Hoochie Coochie Man,” “I Just Want to Make Love to You” and “Mannish Boy” in the upper reaches of the R&B charts – You Shook Me is notable for being anchored not only around single releases but two of Waters’ first LPs. 1960′s Muddy Waters Sings “Big Bill” was a tribute to Big Bill Broonzy, the Chicago bluesman who gave Waters one of his first major professional breaks opening for him at local clubs. The other, recorded that same year, was Muddy Waters at Newport 1960, a killer of a live album that featured revelatory versions of “Hoochie Coochie Man” and “Got My Mojo Workin.’” This 49-track set also includes one unreleased instrumental, “Sweet Black Angel,” and a handful of songs that appeared only on a multi-LP box set of Waters’ Chess output released in Japan. Mary Katherin Aldin pens liner notes for the booklet, which is filled with rare photos of Waters in action. |

| Myrna Lorrie - Hello Baby 1-CD Digipak (4-plated) with 28-page booklet, 22 tracks, playing time approx. 52 mns. -- A Canadian legend. Her first contract took her to Nashville in 1955 when she was fifteen, and when Elvis Presley was being signed to RCA. She too was signed to RCA. Her ultra-rare 1950s and '60s recordings have never been reissued. Now the best of them have been carefully remastered for this definitive CD. -- Myrna Lorrie was from the remote Canadian city of Thunder Bay north. Mentored by greats like Hank Snow and Cowboy Copas who saw her talent, she was signed by the man who discovered Loretta Lynn, and made her first recordings for Abbott, where Jim Reeves and the Browns started, and like them she too departed for RCA. After RCA sessions in New York and Nashville produced some great music breakthrough, she returned to Canada. A television star in Canada for years, Myrna Lorrie helped new singers just as she'd been helped. Among them was Shania Twain. 'It would have turned out differently, if I'd stayed in the States,' Myrna Lorrie told Todd Everett, who wrote the notes for this compilation. 'But I was patriotic and stayed in Canada.' -- Now it's time for the rest of the world to discover what Canadians already know: Myrna Lorrie is a Juke Box Pearl. Amazing collection (6 unreleased) of top notch 1950s Hillbilly, Honky Tonk and some Pop-crossovers like the Tiki Bar cult classic "On A Little Bamboo Bridge". Produced by Fabor Robison & Chet Atkins.

| Mystery Train - Enjoy This Boogie NYT SAATAVANA !! MYSTERY TRAIN on yksi Suomen vanhimmista, vielä aktiivisista "50's Rock'n'Roll/rockabilly" - bändeistä, toiminnassa jo vuodesta 1977 asti. Bändi ammentaa vaikutteita niin rock'n'rollista ja rockabillystä kuin rhythm&bluesistakin, kuulostaen kuitenkin aina MYSTERY TRAIN:ilta ja tuoden oman soundinsa myös lainabiiseihin. Nimensä MYSTERY TRAIN nappasi Elviksen biisistä, kun bändin ensimmäistä levyä oltiin julkaisemassa vuonna 1980. Kesällä 2010 bändin "Keep Up the Beat" -biisi "ENJOY THIS BOOGIE!" -albumilta tullaan kuulemaan amerikkalaisen kokoillan elokuvan "DEUCE OF SPADES" avausraitana. "DEUCE OF SPADES" on herättänyt runsaasti huomiota ympäri maailmaa jo ennen ilmestymistään ja siitä povataankin hot rod -teemansa takia uutta American Graffitti:a! MYSTERY TRAIN:in kiertueaikatauluun, historiaan ja aiempiin julkaisuihin voit tutustua bändin MySpace-sivuilla. |

| Nick 13 - Nick 13 NICK 13 is a singer/songwriter whose work recalls the vintage American sounds of hillbilly, honky-tonk and classic California country music from the middle of last century. While this vanishing world echoes in his music, he puts a modern twist on it all his own. Nick 13’s self-titled debut album for Sugar Hill Records demonstrates the sound and artistic vision that has already earned him invitations to Stagecoach, Austin City Limits and SXSW. Nick 13 is best known around the world as the singer, songwriter, guitarist and founder of the band Tiger Army. His fans have come to expect powerful, heartfelt music that combines the strongest elements of the past with forward-thinking vision. The band is capable of multi-night stands in major cities and appeared in the New York Times, Spin and on Jimmy Kimmel Live. A solo album of pure Americana / country where rock bombast of any kind is notably absent may seem strange from someone who has led a “psychobilly” band across four albums and several international tours during the past decade, but Nick 13 is simply retracing his own course of musical discovery. |

| Nina Simone - Forbidden Fruit LP + CD When Nina Simone signed to Colpix in 1959 she was granted complete creative control over her music. This new freedom gave her the ability to explore new subject areas, particularly themes dealing with Civil Rights. Songs like "Work Song" on 1961's Forbidden Fruit gave an inkling of the maelstrom that was to come, when she would become a veritable force to be reckoned with, making white audiences squirm in their seats with her harsh condemnation of American apartheid. 180 gram vinyl + bonus CD of the same album. |

| Nino Tempo & April Stevens - Hey, Baby ! - The Nino Tempo & April Stevens Anthology When I was a four year-old pre-school music fan, I would often borrow records from our neighbours. One of my favourites from their collection was ‘Deep Purple’ by Nino Tempo & April Stevens. I don’t suppose I could have explained how it made me feel at that age, but for what is essentially a beat ballad, ‘Deep Purple’ created a strangely ethereal mood. Hearing it again all these years later, together with the other recordings collected on “Hey, Baby!”, it’s clear that the key ingredient to Nino & April’s sound was the warmth conjured up by the sibling harmonies of the brother/sister duo. Nino & April had each experienced a degree of success both independently and as a duo by the time ‘Deep Purple’ hit, Nino cutting his teeth as a session sax player and occasional film actor, while April enjoyed an on-off career as a feline, temptress-styled chanteuse. A selection of Stevens’ early sides is included here, sounding a little kitsch nearly 60 years on, but still rather alluring. Following a series of near-miss 45s together, the duo casually knocked off a cover of the 30s chestnut ‘Deep Purple’ at the close of a session. Almost by accident, they’d hit on something. In spite of label boss Ahmet Ertegun’s doubts about the recording’s hit potential (“the worst thing they ever recorded,” he claimed at the time), it climbed to the top of the US chart, winning the Grammy for Best Rock & Roll Recording a few months later. The success of ‘Deep Purple’ led to the duo recording a slew of updated pre-rock standards, timed – rather unfortunately – to coincide perfectly with the British Invasion. Suddenly their audience had no interest in the hits of yesteryear, and it seemed that Nino & April’s moment had passed as quickly as it had arrived. However, Tempo’s days as an in-demand saxophonist had led to a friendship with Phil Spector. This bond clearly paid off big time: the Tempo & Stevens magnum opus from ’66 – ‘All Strung Out’, originally written for the Righteous Brothers – is a powerful piece of work, and possibly the best Spector-influenced recording of the era, though the equally wall-of-sound-alike ‘The Habit Of Lovin’ You Baby’ gives it a run for its money. Still other influences abound throughout this collection. The ache and yearn of Tempo's ‘Boys Town’ cuts so true it could be a “Pet Sounds” out-take. ‘Out Of Nowhere’ acknowledges – if not quite embraces – the Liverpool sound. And, while also tipping the hat to Holland-Dozier-Holland, April’s solo ‘Wanting You’ 45 from 1967 seems to look ahead to the UK studio sound of the end of the decade (think Macaulay-MacLeod or Cook-Greenaway). This career-spanning compilation of Nino & April’s work is a real eye-opener if your familiarity with their output starts and ends with the hits. And on a personal level, hearing ‘Deep Purple’ 40-plus years on takes me straight back to being a four year-old, gazing at the Dansette in pure awe. Timeless and evocative, “Hey, Baby!” is a joy.
