The complete Hi Records recordings of Quiet Elegance – a great 70s soul female trio formed by two former members of The Glories, and one of Martha & The Vandellas – who recorded for Hi with some mighty great production work from Willie Mitchell! The girls have a style that's similar to Willie's work with Al Green on the first batch of tunes – and which then opens into more of an Emotions-like style on later tracks – all the while sticking to a strong female harmony sound that never falls into the cloying style of other girl groups of the time. This is great stuff – the kind of lost soul that needs further discovering – something that's easy to do, given the set's great notes, and inclusion of rare bonus tracks. Titles include "I Need Love", "I'm Afraid Of Losing You", "Mama Said", "I Need Love", "You've Got My Mind Messed Up", "Roots Of Love", "After You", "How's Your Love Life?", and "Tired Of Being Alone".

THE FLAMES
Possibly the most “international” band of the 60’s, they began in South Africa before moving to London for a while and then on to California to work with the Beach Boys. They started out in the common way (at least common for the times) by playing brit-style beat rock & roll; they folded-in smooth R&B flavors and caught fire in their native country rather quickly. But whereas many beat bands moved into psychedelic rock once they started growing, The Flames followed a path through fiery wailing soul before landing at a bluesy “classic rock” sound while in California. Some folks might even recognize guitarist Ricky Fataar by his alter-ego Stig O’Hara in the Beatles parody band The Rutles. This is their complete discography with a couple of comps that fill-in the non-album gaps.

Rhiannon Giddens - Factory Girl EP (2015)
On the heels of her highly acclaimed solo debut Tomorrow Is My Turn, Rhiannon Giddens's five-song vinyl EP Factory Girl is released on Nonesuch Records on November 27, 2015, to coincide with the Black Friday Record Store Day event; a digital version of Factory Girl is available December 11. The EP is culled from the same T Bone Burnett–produced sessions that yielded Tomorrow Is My Turn, which the Wall Street Journal said "confirms the arrival of a significant talent whose voice and distinctive approach communicate the simmering emotion at the core of the songs." Additionally, the Los Angeles Times called the album "a collection that should solidify her status as one of the bright new lights in pop music." Giddens continues touring in support of the album and EP on November 6, with new international tour dates announced for early 2016, including several as part of Transatlantic Sessions. See below for all of the currently scheduled dates.
As with Tomorrow Is My Turn, Giddens again records traditional songs and rethinks ones written or made famous by her musical heroes Ethel Waters and Sister Rosetta Tharp. Giddens co-wrote, with her sister Lalenja Harrington and Burnett, "Moonshiner's Daughter," which draws inspiration from family lore about her great-grandfather, a notorious rum-runner. A traditional Gaelic mouth music tune also is featured, along with the title track, a traditional Irish song for which Giddens, deeply troubled by the 2013 factory collapse in Bangladesh that killed 1,100 workers, wrote additional lyrics.
The sessions for the album and EP took place in Los Angeles and Nashville, with a multi-generational group of players assembled by Burnett. Musicians on Factory Girl include Burnett; fiddle player Gabe Witcher and double bassist Paul Kowert of label-mates Punch Brothers; percussionist Jack Ashford of Motown's renowned Funk Brothers; drummer Jay Bellerose; guitarist Colin Linden; veteran Nashville session bassist Dennis Crouch; and Giddens's Carolina Chocolate Drops touring band-mates, multi-instrumentalist Hubby Jenkins and beat-boxer Adam Matta.

The Arcs - The Arcs vs. The Inventors, vol. I '15
The Black Keys' Dan Auerbach has another band called the Arcs, and on Record Store Day's Black Friday event (November 27), they'll release a new limited-edition 10". The six-song record is called The Arcs vs. The Inventors Vol. I, and it's coming via Nonesuch. It features Dr. John (whose album Locked Down was produced by Auerbach) and David Hidalgo of Los Lobos. It's being billed as the first in a series of collaborative releases from the Arcs. Find the tracklist and cover art below.
In a statement, Auerbach discussed the "Inventors" series:
Sometimes the best way to see into the future is to study the past. In this series we do both, collaborating with folks who have been in the game a long time but instead of rehashing old material, we collaborate on new works, explore new ideas and introduce each other to a different generational perspective. We'll continue in this series to track down our heroes and bug them until they agree to make some noise with us. Hopefully we learn a thing or two. Yours, Dreamily.

Big Star - Jesus Christ EP '15
Exclusive blue vinyl EP for Record Store Day/Black Friday!
Originally recorded for Big Star’s iconic Third, “Jesus Christ” has become a holiday staple. What better way to celebrate this time of year than to experience this classic track on vinyl—along with the gift of previously unissued material!
This collectible 10″ EP features the Three Wise Men artwork from a 1973 Big Star promo poster, comes pressed on translucent blue vinyl, and contains a download card. In addition to the original album version of its namesake, the audio program features a demo of “Jesus Christ” which first appeared on the Grammy® winning box set, Keep An Eye On The Sky, as well as 5 previously unissued tracks.
Fans have been clamoring for an official release of “Another Time Another Place & You” for decades, and it makes is first ever appearance here, along with a TV Mix of Third’s “Thank You Friends.” Two Chris Bell unissued instrumentals join them. All four of these tracks were mixed in 2012 for use in the acclaimed documentary Nothing Can Hurt Me. An unheard demo of “Big Black Car” (the studio version also appears on Third) completes the playlist.
The legacy of Big Star continues to shine, and the Jesus Christ EP will not only make a glowing addition to any fan’s collection, but will provide them with not only what they’ve been searching for, but make them rejoice in what they’ve found.
10″ EP Track List:
Side 1:
1. JESUS CHRIST (Album Version)
2. JESUS CHRIST (Demo)
3. UNTITLED ACOUSTIC INSTRUMENTAL (Rough Mix) – Chris Bell
4. UNTITLED ELECTRIC INSTRUMENTAL (Rough Mix) – Chris Bell
Side 2:
1. BIG BLACK CAR (Demo #3)
2. ANOTHER TIME ANOTHER PLACE & YOU
3. THANK YOU FRIENDS (TV Mix)
