The Beatles Heart Shaped Vinyl


























The Beatles' first single, "Love Me Do," came out way back in 1962, and now that it's more than 50 years old, the song is currently out of copyright in the Europe. This has allowed Mischief Music to release a unique version of the single on heart-shaped red vinyl.

This remastered 12-inch will be available through Amazon although no release date is set you can sign up to receive notice when it becomes available. Good Luck. As with the original version of the single, it comes backed with "P.S. I Love You." source

David Bromberg's Only Slightly Mad





















David Bromberg's storied career has included collaborations with some of the biggest names in music – Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jerry Garcia and Jerry Jeff Walker, just to name a few.

On September 24, 2013 he'll add another LP to his solo discography, Only Slightly Mad. Now you can take an exclusive first listen to album cut, "Nobody's Fault But Mine," a traditional gospel number that Bromberg's turned into a mid-tempo blues wailer marked by saintly but somber organ work from Brian Mitchell and Bromberg's voice, which runs as ragged as his guitar. source

Califone's Interactive Stitches
















Chicago-based band Califone just released an interactive clip for Stitches, the first single from its upcoming album of the same name to be released September 3, 2013.

The group worked with filmmaker Braden King and programmer Jeff Garneau to create a piece that pulls random images and GIFs from select Tumblr blogs. Because of this, the video never looks the same way twice.

To experience the video, head to http://califonestitches.tumblr.com and click on the bottom left, where it says "Show me your stitches." Note that you can click on any image to view it in color and/or add a message on the back that can be re-blogged. source

Music Familiarity Study Results

























Do you like new music? Many listeners say they do. But a surprising new study suggests that no matter what listeners say, they're more eager to listen to music that they're already familiar with than the new stuff.

Curiously, the findings -- published in the journal Marketing Letters -- contradicted an initial survey in which study participants indicated that they would prefer for radio stations to play more new music. Turns out folks don't mean what they say. MORE HERE

Gilberto Gil may be 71 but he danced on to the stage, clutching a red guitar, fronting a band featuring accordion and fiddle.

Brazil's most celebrated and versatile veteran performer closed Womad 2013 with a jaunty Brazilian folk-rock set that included forro songs that he recorded for the film Eu, Tu, Eles, along with Expresso 2222, which he wrote in London in the 70s when he was exiled by Brazil's military government, and Bob Marley songs, a reminder of the role Gil played in popularizing reggae in Brazil.

R.I.P.: Mick Farren




Mick Farren, founder of early punk band the Deviants and prolific writer, collapsed on stage during the band's set at the Atomic Sunshine Festival in London and has died. He was 69.

Farren formed the Social Deviants in the Ladbroke Grove area of London in 1967, shortening their name to the Deviants after a change in lineup. The band released their first album, Ptooff! in 1967 via the underground scene in London to enough success that it was picked up by Decca for general release. They recorded two more albums, 1968's Disposableand 1969's Deviants Three, before the band decided to continue without Farren. MORE HERE
