The Rascals - The Complete Singles A's & B's (2017 Rhino-Real Gone)

These remastered mono versions sound great. These are easily the best sounding versions of these great songs that I have ever heard. (Allmusic)

Consisting of Two Fantastic Singer- Songwriters in Eddie Brigati and Felix Cavaliere, an Underrated Guitarist and Songwriter in Gene Cornish, and the Inimitable Dino Danelli on Drums, The Rascals Were the Closest Thing America Had to The Beatles

Like the Fab Four, The Rascals Made Both Hit Singles and Albums That Worked as Artistic Statements, with Brilliant Production Help from Arif Mardin and Tom Down

The Group Scored a Total of 10 Charting Albums and 19 Charting Singles

However, a Comprehensive Rascals Singles Collection Has Never Been Compiled, Partly Because the Group Recorded for Both Atlantic and Columbia

Now, Just over 50 Years after They Hit the Top of the Charts with “Good Lovin’,” Real Gone Music Presents The Complete Singles A’s & B’s

Includes All 47 Single Sides the Group Recorded for the Atlantic and—for the First Time Ever on CD—Columbia Labels

Includes Such Classic Tracks as “I Ain’t Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore,” “Good Lovin’,” “Groovin’” (Also Here in Its Spanish and Italian Versions), “I’ve Been Lonely Too Long,” “A Girl Like You,” “How Can I Be Sure,” “A Beautiful Morning,” “People Got to Be Free,” “See,” and More

Early Tracks Are in Their Original Mono Single Mixes, Later Tracks in Original Stereo Single Mixes (28 of the 47 Tracks Are Mono)

Remastered by Mike Milchner at SonicVision

Ed Osborne’s 4500-Word Essay Includes Exclusive Quotes from Eddie Brigati, Felix Cavaliere, and Gene Cornish

Includes Rare European Picture Sleeves and Photos

BONUS 4 OF 5 @320

Jet - Shine On (2006, Rhino Deluxe Edition 2017)

Fans of The Who, mid-to-late period Beatles, The Kinks & 1970s rock, like myself, will hear similarities to these rock gods in the music of Aussie rockers Jet, so just sit back, relax & enjoy the ride in this modern day interpretation of popular music of 30 years ago. (NPR)

The difficult second album has brought many bands back to Earth after a promising debut. With Shine On, Australian hard rockers Jet do their level best to avoid the follow-up doldrums. While nothing here is as immediate and memorable as "Are You Gonna Be My Girl?," the album stacks up well against Get Born. (Allmusic)

Two CD edition. Digitally remastered and expanded deluxe edition containing a bonus disc of rarities and b-sides. The Australian band's sophomore album, Shine On contains the singles "Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is," "Bring It On Back," "Rip It Up" and "Shine On." Jet quickly conquered the world after forming in 2001, selling more than 6.5 million albums globally and securing 10 x platinum certification in Australia and platinum in the USA and UK for their debut album Get Born. This deluxe edition is perfectly timed to coincide with Jet's reformation. (Record Runner)

Staple Singers - Stax Classics The Staple Singers (Rhino 2017)

Celebrating one of the biggest names in soul, gospel and folk, and a respected voice in the civil rights movement: The Staple Singers. Their time at Stax brought the legendary family band to a new level of stardom, with hits "Respect Yourself" and "I'll Take You There," both included in this album, among many other favorites. This timely compilation comes on the heels of Mavis Staples’ 2016 Kennedy Center Honors, as well as the documentary, Mavis!

Their time at Stax brought the family band – consisting of Roebuck “Pops” Staples and his daughters Mavis, Yvonne and Cleotha –to another level of stardom, with their breakout title, Be Altitude: Respect Yourself. Title track "Respect Yourself," reached the Number Two position on Billboard's Soul/R&B chart, while "I'll Take You There," with its infectious beat, hit Number One on the Billboard Hot 100. This album features these two hits, plus such favorites as “Heavy Makes You Happy (Sha-Na-Boom-Boom)”, “The Weight” (which they performed with The Band for The Last Waltz) and civil rights anthem “Long Walk to D.C.”
