    First Time In A Long Time: The Reprise Recordings

    £34.99

    An all-girl rock band? Sure, what's the big deal? Well, prior to Fanny, it was a big deal. With few exceptions, "girl groups" didn't write their own material and play their own instruments. Signing to Reprise Records in 1969, Fanny became the first all-female group to record a full-length album for a major label. Sisters June and Jean Millington began rocking in Sacramento, California in the early '60s. In 1968, after years of touring the West Coast in the all-female The Svelts, the Millingtons assembled a new band, Wild Honey, and took to the stage with original songs and folk and Motown covers. A 1969 gig at The Troubadour club in Los Angeles brought Wild Honey to the attention of producer Richard Perry, who persuaded Warner's Mo Ostin to sign the band sight unseen. With Perry at the console and soon-to-be-permanent member Nickey Barclay on keyboards, the band now named Fanny recorded its eponymous debut in L.A. Released in December of 1970, the album combined textured, Beatle-esque pop with sweaty soul, beefy riffs, and proto-Riot Grrrl swagger. If women weren't supposed to rock with this level of chops and intensity, apparently nobody told Fanny. Their name might not be a household word, but if you want to know something of Fanny's influence, just ask The Runaways, The Go-Go's, or Hole. But don't listen to Fanny because they're a great female band. Listen to them because they're a great band. Amazingly, Fanny's groundbreaking albums have never been released on CD. With Rhino Handmade's release of First Time In A Long Time: The Reprise Recordings, this hugely important band is finally getting its digital due. First In A Long Time is a four-CD boxed set containing Fanny's entire 1970-73 Reprise output, plus much more. The studio albums Fanny (1970), Charity Ball (1971), Fanny Hill (1972), and the Todd Rundgren-produced Mother's Pride (1973) have been remastered from original master tapes and are included in their entirety. Also included are exclusive songs from the highly sought-after Canadian version of Fanny, which was pressed from the wrong masters and issued in an initial run of a few thousand copies. Additional bonus tracks include Wild Honey demos from 1969, Reprise promo spots, informal "Kitchen Tapes" recordings, live tracks from 1972-73, and many outtakes and alternate versions. A special 52-page book includes an exclusive 2002 interview with June and Jean Millington and Alice de Buhr, plus rare photos and tributes by David Bowie, Bonnie Raitt, Jill Sobule, and others."They were extraordinary: They wrote everything, they played like motherf*ckers, they were just colossal and wonderful." (David Bowie, Rolling Stone, 1999)

    Linda Thompson

    One Clear Moment

    £10.99

    One Clear Moment, released in 1985, was Linda Thompson's only solo album until 'Fashionably Late' hit stores in 2002. It also marked her emergence from the shadow of her ex-husband, acclaimed songwriter Richard Thompson. Their previous collaboration yielded such widely regarded folk-rock classics as 'I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight', 'Pour Down Like Silver', and 'Shoot Out The Lights'. One Clear Moment was produced by Hugh Murphy (Gerry Rafferty, The Proclaimers) and mostly co-written with Murphy's then-wife, Betsy Cook. "I disliked her intensely," Thompson says in the liner notes to this release, "'cause she's very loud and very American, and at the time I was very Muslim and very holier than-than-thou and a right royal pain in the arse. Then I got to love her more than I loved anybody." And Cook had a strong influence on the musical direction Thompson would take. "I can write the folkiest lyric in the world, and if Betsy sets them to a kind of rock tune, that's what they sound like," she explains. A polished record in the vein of Bonnie Raitt's best work, One Clear Moment didn't draw as heavily from Thompson's English and Scottish folk roots. It was rather an adventurous take on modern adult pop, and established her as a brave songwriter with an eclectic ear. The songs also inspired well-known covers, such as the Trio's (Dolly Parton, Linda Rondstadt, Emmylou Harris) version of "Telling Me Lies," which earned Thompson and Cook a Grammy® nomination. Following One Clear Moment, a vocal affliction known as spasmodic dysphonia forced something of an early retirement, but not before Thompson recorded a never-released album for Columbia in 1987. Some 15 years later, she returned to the pioneering style of her work with Richard, releasing the highly regarded Fashionably Late in July 2002 on Rounder Records. Rhino Handmade's release of One Clear Moment includes the original 11-song album, as well as five bonus tracks: the original single mix of the B-side "Talking Like A Man," plus four tracks recorded in the Lake District by Granada TV for Music On The Move July 20, 1983. All recordings have been remastered from original source materials. One Clear Moment is available as an individually numbered limited edition of 5,000 copies.

    Brilliant Colors: The Complete Warner Bros. Recordings

    £19.99

    "The sound of these records must have seemed more than a bit confusing, even in those anything-goes times: Classical musicians duking it out with Nashville cats and Tijuana brass, with a harpsichord-wielding composer serving as ringmaster and referee? What on Earth were they thinking?" (Andy Zax, from his liner notes to this Rhino Handmade release) Although the boldly eclectic Neon Philharmonic broke into the Billboard Pop Singles chart twice - with "Morning Girl" in 1969 and "Heighdy-Ho Princess" in 1970 - the world probably wasn't yet ready for their unique blend of pop and majesty. The group released two albums and five non-LP singles for Warner Bros. between 1969 and 1971, remaining active until 1975 (albeit in diluted form after 1972's "Annie Poor" single, following which songwriter Tupper Saussy and singer Don Gant had little or no involvement). At the heart of the Philharmonic are the sweeping compositions of Tupper Saussy, whose rich pop constructions compare with those of Burt Bacharach, Jimmy Webb, and The Beatles. Classically trained at an early age, the Florida native studied jazz with Oscar Peterson, George Russell, and Jimmy Giuffre at the School of Jazz in Lenox, Massachusetts. In the early '60s he wound up in the advertising business, where he managed accounts and wrote copy and jingles. But he also moonlit as a Nashville jazz player, eventually jamming with Chet Atkins and cutting three albums for Fred Foster's Monument Records. By 1969 he had also composed two major pieces for the Nashville Symphony. Saussy's transition to pop music came by way of The Beatles by way of Leonard Bernstein ("These guys are very important," the famous composer had said). During a period of writing for the fabled Acuff-Rose music publishing firm - and imbibing large quantities of "Penny Lane" and "Good Vibrations" -Saussy made a set of demos for what he called a "phonograph opera" with Don Gant. The duo was soon signed by Warner Bros. as the Neon Philharmonic. This two-disc Rhino Handmade release contains everything the Neon Philharmonic recorded for Warner Bros. between 1968 and 1971. Both The Moth Confesses and The Neon Philharmonic albums from 1969 are presented in their entirety. Also included are all of the Warner non-LP singles, three previously unreleased songs recorded in 1970, and five promotional radio spots. Special packaging includes a six-panel digipak and slipcase. The accompanying booklet contains a comprehensive interview with Tupper Saussy and many never-before-seen photographs. Brilliant Colors: The Complete Warner Bros. Recordings is available as an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies.

    Classics

    £10.99

    Best known for his signature 1972 hit "Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues," Danny O'Keefe is a veteran singer-songwriter of rare lyrical insight. In the '70s, backed by top session players and Southern California country-rockers, he released a string of genre-defying albums for Panorama, Cotillion, Signpost, and Atlantic. His songs have been recorded more recently by Alison Krauss, Nickel Creek, Ute Lemper, and others. While recovering from a motorcycle accident in his early twenties, O'Keefe began writing songs. Following his 1966 debut single "Don't Wake Me In The Morning," he formed the Seattle-based psychedelic group Calliope, which released the now-collectible Steamed LP in 1968. He then met Charles Greene a Los-Angeles-based industry figure with ties to Buffalo Springfield and Iron Butterfly. Greene introduced O'Keefe to Atlantic's Ahmet Ertegun, who signed the artist to his label's Cotillion imprint. Danny O'Keefe, released in 1971 was recorded at Alabama's Muscle Shoals Sound with backing from the studio's legendary house band. Sessions were finished in L.A. with members of Rhinoceros, The Daily Flash, and The Flying Burrito Brothers. Revealing an eclectic range, the record includes the honky-tonk standout "Steel Guitar" and an early version of "Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues." O'Keefe's next album, O'Keefe, utilized Memphis and Nashville session pros for a more distinctive effort. "Good-Time Charlie" appears again, this time with a more emotionally resonant arrangement. The glossier Breezy Stories, which many consider O'Keefe's finest hour, followed in 1973, betraying a subtle but undeniable angst. After releasing three more increasingly adventurous albums and touring in support of Linda Ronstadt, the artist left the limelight in the '80s and worked as a contract writer during the '90s. In 1997 he launched the Songbird Foundation, an organization devoted to preserving rainforest wildlife. Runnin' From The Devil, his first album of new material in a decade and a half, came out in 2000, followed by Don't Ask three years later. This 22-track, single-disc collection from Rhino Handmade gathers tracks from Danny O'Keefe (1971), O'Keefe (1972), Breezy Stories (1973), So Long Harry Truman (1975), American Roulette (1977), and The Global Blues (1979). Classics is available as an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies.

    The Elektra Years

    £19.99

    Josh White's signing to Elektra Records in 1955 was the beginning of a third career phase for the South Carolina-born folk-blues singer and a big break for the label. At age 14 Josh recorded with the blind gospel singer Joe Taggart, which led to a contract with the American Record Corporation (later Columbia). In the mid-1930s, following a hand injury that left him unable to play guitar for several years, White appeared on Broadway and found success as a cabaret performer. During this time he emerged as a protest singer and released his biggest-selling record, "One Meat Ball," one of the defining hits of the post war, early folk revival. Then his career was nearly destroyed by the Mc Carthy hearings of the early 1950s. Despite the Mc Carthy hearings Elektra founder Jac Holzman was happy to sign White and free him to make records his own way. The singer's Elektra debut, 1955's The Story Of John Henry, was a significant success that interspersed Henry's legend with appropriate songs from White's past and present. Then came the career-defining Josh At Midnight, the label's first 12-inch LP and one of its biggest sellers throughout the next decade. In the '40s White was as likely to perform English ballads and folk songs as the blues. But Holzman encouraged him to emphasize not only his African-American material, but his sexual charisma as well. Nonetheless, blues purists often criticized White's seven Elektra-era recordings as too "slick." (Indeed, when the first blues boom cooled with the onset of World War II, White shaped his repertoire to appeal to white, urban folk fans.) But his work is all the more genuine when seen as the honest expression of a sophisticated, intelligent artist who had been living in New York since 1931. To masquerade as a man of the cotton fields would have been disingenuous and out of Josh's character. As Holzman put it, "Josh was his own man in a time before it became fashionable." Produced for release by Jac Holzman, Rhino Handmade's two-disc The Elektra Years spans 1955-1962 with tracks from White's seven LPs for the label, plus the ARC recording "Lay Some Flowers On My Grave." A tri-fold digipack sleeve includes a booklet with rare photos and liner and track notes by Elijah Wald, author of the acclaimed Escaping The Delta: Robert Johnson And The Invention Of The Blues. The Elektra Years is available as an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies.
