Fanny

Live on Beat-Club ’71-’72

Fanny was one of the first all-female bands, and they rocked. Even David Bowie thought they were ahead of their time, telling Rolling Stone, “They were one of the finest fucking rock bands of their time…they were extraordinary: they wrote everything, they played like motherfuckers.” The band’s appearances from the Beat Club were released on various colored vinyl and CD.


FEATURED TRACK: "Young and Dumb"

Queens of the Stone Age

Queens of the Stone Age

From the ashes of stoner rock legends rose Queens of the Stone Age. The powerhouse debut of the group that would see many line-up changes (with frontman Josh Homme always at the helm) has been issued on vinyl for the first time.


FEATURED TRACK: "You Can't Quit Me Baby"


Front 242

Endless Riddance 

Belgian electronica group Front 242 was at the forefront of the genre in the early 80s with their brand of self-proclaimed  “electronic body music.” The Endless Riddance EP was released in 1983 as a follow-up to the band’s influential Geography debut. The three-track EP has been reissued on clear vinyl.


FEATURED TRACK: "Controversy Between"

This Close to You

Luther Vandross

"The Velvet Voice" of Luther Vandross made him one of the top R&B/Soul performers of the 80s, with 11 consecutive platinum albums to his credit. Prior to his breakout success as a solo artist, he performed with the group Luther. The quintet’s last recording has been reissued and is available in multiple formats for the first time in over 40 years.


FEATURED TRACK: "This Close to You"

Tom Verlaine

Warm and Cool

Television frontman Tom Verlaine’s solo release, Warm and Cool, was a departure for the guitarist. His first solely instrumental recording, released in 1992, was hailed by several critics for its post-modern sensibilities. Released on clear pink vinyl.


FEATURED TRACK: "Harley Quinn"
