Unissued Gary Katz produced 1970 album . Features songs by Richard Manuel (The Band), Stephen Stills, and previously unheard material from Walter Becker and Donald Fagen of Steely Dan . Musicians include members of the original Steely Dan line-up . Liner notes by Scott Schinder include information drawn from new interviews with Linda Hoover and Gary Katz In the summer of 1970, Linda Hoover, then 19, entered Manhattan's Advantage Sound Studio to cut her first album with Gary Katz, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen leading a team that also included guitarists (and future Steely Dan members) Denny Dias & Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, and Eric Weissberg, saxophonist Jerome Richardson, plus sax members of the Dick Cavett Orchestra. I Mean To Shine includes three original compositions by Linda alongside The Band's "In A Station" (from Music From Big Pink) and Stephen Stills' "4 + 20" (which appeared on CSN&Y's D?j? Vu). Almost half of the album was penned by the pre-Steely Dan songwriting duo of Becker and Fagen, including what would become the album's title track. After creating a wonderful record, album cover photos were taken and then it all fell apart. The release was shelved over a business disagreement and if that wasn't heartbreaking enough, Hoover learned that Barbra Streisand also recorded "I Mean To Shine" (which would appear on her album Barbra Joan Streisand). Streisand's album hit #11 and went gold. For the production team of Katz, Becker, and Fagen one success built on another and they were hired to staff positions at ABC-Dunhill Records in Los Angeles. Hoover continued to pursue musical opportunities in New York, but with her creative team gone and no record release to show for their collective efforts, she wound up returning to her parents' house in Florida. However, she did take a tape copy of her album home with her. Now, with the blessing from Hoover and original producer Katz, the previously unissued album, I Mean To Shine finally sees the light of day and even features the proposed 1970 cover shot by Joel Brodsky (whose work at that time had already graced the covers of releases from The Doors, Van Morrison, The Stooges, and more). The album has been produced for release by Linda, Jay Willingham, and Grammy?-winner Cheryl Pawelski with audio restoration and mastering by Grammy?-winning engineer Michael Graves. Scott Schinder's liner notes are informed by new interviews with Hoover and Katz. The album will get a vinyl release for Record Store Day Drop June 19, 2022 with CD and Digital available the following week (June 24).

Norman Bates was never like this!

Somewhat forgotten Ken Russell film from the 80s. (Ken Russell himself is somewhat forgotten these days, sadly). Like many films that are hard to find on DVD, this is where the Dual Format release comes to the rescue! Another steamy role for Kathleen Turner during her Vixen heyday. Anthony Perkins is on top form in a Norman Bates-goes-screwed-up-Catholic-priest kinda way and you'll never look at dildoes in quite the same way again!

ELO Album

I ordered 'All Over the World' by ELO. Delivery wasn't the quickest, however it was well packaged, and competitively priced. As for the album, it's in perfect condition, and plays well. The album is a classic, so doesn't really need me to say it's fantastic, but it is!
