Reflections of my Life

SPYDERPOP RECORDS is proud to announce the August 26 release of an all-new CD and digital compilation: WE ALL SHINE ON: CELEBRATING THE MUSIC OF 1970. Featuring 22 of the finest current indie pop/rock acts offering their interpretations of the sounds of 1970, the album will hit record store shelves and all digital platforms worldwide on the street date and is up for pre-order at bigstirrecords.com, and all major online retailers now. The album, produced by music journalist/ author/drummer John M. Borack, will thrill and surprise fans of both yesteryear’s classics and the thriving 21st century guitar pop scene with its bounty of fresh takes on radio hits from this halcyon era over fifty years ago.

Released through Universal Music, ‘Magic Bus Summer Of Love ’ is a massive 3CD collection of 54 tracks that sound-tracked the journeys taken along the ‘hippie trail’ by thousands in the late ’60s, early ’70s. Rolling on from London to Amsterdam, then to Istanbul and finally to Kathmandu in Nepal, the epic voyage, and indeed the mode of transport itself has entered the cultural vernacular. A garishly painted bus still evokes, for us all, the open road and the setting sun. ‘Magic Bus Summer Of Love’ speaks of the impact upon the world’s young people of the nascent counterculture; bringing freedom, hedonism and spirituality.

Can a collection present some of the best music of a decade? How about two decades? That's what Sanctuary Records attempt to do (and perhaps wins) with 100 Huge Hits Of The 60's & 70's, which they released in 2007. It features all of the big hits and more.

An excellent collection of million-selling hits of the golden decade 1965-1974, compiled by Dj Paul Jansen, for Polydor records. A nostalgic parade of 97 hits, in their original versions. Hear again unforgettable hits, in 5 quality CDs. More than 5:30 hours of music. Enjoy.

The mid-to-late '60s produced an explosion of Latin Soul, emanating a few blocks east of Harlem's Apollo Theater in East or Spanish Harlem. This compilation features the sweet harmony sounds of artists from the area - including Joe Bataan, Ralphi Pagan, the Lebron Brothers and a host of unknowns who recorded for labels such as Fania, Cotique and Speed. It also includes rare 45s by Parrish and 125th Street Candy Store. It gathers up some of the rarest and most sought after recordings of the era, including three-figure singles by Frankie Nieves, Tony Middleton and Harvey Averne which are collected by dancers, as well as Olivieri and Ralphi and the Latin Lovers which are sought-after by vocal group fans. The booklet features a wealth of rare or previously unseen memorabilia and photographs from the labels and artists. The sleeve notes tell the story of a unique and very brief period in the history of Latin music in America. A story with the sweetest of soundtracks. Beat Goes On.
