One of the best selling albums of all time gets remastered, repackaged and re-released. Is the new version of Fleetwood Mac’s “Rumours” worth your money?

American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 9
Earlier this week, my friend Tiffany ( @TVProducerLady ) and I discussed the show so far on the latest episode of Blerd Radio . Tonight, the contestants are going to be singing songs performed by their idols. Stevie Nicks is mentoring them with Jimmy Iovine. Colton Dixon is singing Everything from Lifehouse. Stevie told him to never cut his hair. She likes the muskrat look? It’s a worship song and he put on the kind of performance that works. There wasn’t many highs […]
Spin Cycle: Florence + the Machine’s “Ceremonials”
British act Florence + The Machine follow up their well-received debut “Lungs” with a new album called “Ceremonials”. Can Ms. Welch and company successfully avoid the sophomore slump?
Chart Stalker 5/11/11: Adele Fends Off All Comers…Again
So, Adele’s 21 is turning into quite the juggernaut. In a week when tons of superstar albums came out (8 albums debuted in the Top Ten), the British R&B singer retains her stranglehold on the top of the Billboard charts, with another 155,000 albums sold. In addition, the set’s first single, “Rolling in the Deep”, finally makes it to the top of Billboard’s Top Digital Songs chart and probably would’ve already been #1 on the overall Hot 100 singles chart […]
New Release Report 5/3/11: Beastietude
The week’s biggest news is certainly the release of Hot Sauce Committee, Part II , the Beastie Boys’ first non-instrumental album in six years. The longest-running hit making rap act in history, this album has gotten universally solid reviews, proving that Mike D., Ad-Rock and MCA have not lost their mojo even in their mid-forties. However, it’s far from the only thing going on in a crowded new release week. The Beasties will likely be vying for the #1 spot on the album charts with […]
The Viewfinder: Stevie Nicks’ “Secret Love”
Stevie Nicks is certainly one of the more unique vocalists (and frontpeople) of the rock era. Whether singing with Fleetwood Mac, appearing as a support or background vocalist, or performing on her own, she has a sound that can’t really be duplicated. Stevie’s first solo album, In Your Dreams, comes out next week, and she’s just released the first video from the project, entitled “Secret Love”. In recorded form, the song actually rocks a little harder than it did when […]
Cougar Alert!: Rod Stewart & Stevie Nicks Bring the Hits to Boston
With a combined 75 years of hits between them, there’s no way that a Stevie Nicks/Rod Stewart double bill could possibly disappoint? Well…the two legends of pop/rock took the stage for a show at Boston’s TD Garden and blew my modest expectations away. Both in their sixties, and with two completely different styles of performance, each artist was incredibly entertaining. My expectations were modest for several reasons. One was Nicks’ well-documented history of drug abuse. Another was Rod Stewart’s recent […]
