On February 7, 1964, The Beatles arrived at New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport, greeted by scores of screaming, swooning fans who rushed the gate to catch a glimpse of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr as they took their first steps on American soil. Two

nights later, on Sunday, February 9, 73 million viewers in the U.S. and millions more in Canada tuned in to CBS to watch The Beatles make their American television debut on ‘The Ed Sullivan Show.’ In what remains one of the world’s top-viewed television events of all time, The Beatles performed five songs on the live broadcast and ‘Beatlemania,’ already in full, feverish bloom in The Beatles’ native U.K., was unleashed with

blissful fervor across America and around the world. The British Invasion had begun.

The new 13 CD box set THE U.S. ALBUMS commemorates the 50th anniversary of these history-making events, spanning 1964’s MEET THE BEATLES! to 1970’s HEY JUDE. The Beatles’ U.S. albums differed from the band’s U.K. albums in a variety of ways, including different track lists, song mixes, album titles, and art. The box set includes the following titles: (Disc 1) MEET THE BEATLES!, (Disc 2) THE BEATLES’ SECOND ALBUM,

(Disc 3) A HARD DAY’S NIGHT [ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK], (Disc 4) SOMETHING NEW, (Disc 5) THE BEATLES’ STORY, (Disc 6) BEATLES ’65, (Disc 7) THE EARLY BEATLES, (Disc 8) BEATLES VI, (Disc 9) HELP! [ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK] , (Disc 10) RUBBER

BECKMorning Phase (2/25)2LP 602537649747 $24.98 listCD 602537649754 $13.95 list

chapter in Beck’s peerless career and catalogue. Featuring musicians who

LORDEPure Heroine

LP 602537539857 $29.98 listCD 602537519002 $13.95 list

After hearing the opening song “Bravado” on Lorde’s debut EP, The Love Club, it’d be easy to mistake Ella Yelich-

O’Connor for a seasoned tunesmithfrom the American South, one who

carries a heavy heart that’s been ravaged by careless men over time. But in truth,

Lorde recorded these songs as a 16-year old Kiwi championed by the likes of

Perez Hilton and Grimes.

STAFF PICKSMichael CornetteDirector of Business DevelopmentDIEGO RIVERA “The Contender”CD 884501921435 $17.98 listThough pretty much an unknown, saxophonist Diego Rivera is a professor and instructor at Michigan State University, as is the producer of this recording, Michael Dease. There is some feisty interplay throughout, including a solid performance from the rhythm section consisting of drummer Ulysses Owens, Jr. and stalwart bassist Rodney Whitaker. A solid recording. Highly recommended for those who appreciate ‘50’s style hard-bop à la Blue Note.

Sean EttlinGeneral ManagerSTEVIE RAY VAUGHAN “The Sky Is Crying”CD 886978758620 $7.98 listReleased posthumously after his tragic helicopter accident, The Sky Is Crying arguably one of SVR’s best releases and is a “must have” for any music fan. In fact, if you can listen to this and not break into a bit of air guitar, well you’re just not human! I’ve personally worn out several versions of this album and still listen constantly. If you don’t have it, go get it!

Gayland MorrisIndependent Retail SalesJOHN COLTRANE “Live In Tokyo”CD 5060186921181 $47.98 listThis mammoth 4-disc set documents John Coltrane’s final Quintet, featuring Coltrane, his wife/pianist Alice, saxophonist/bass clarinetist Pharoah Sanders, bassist Jimmy Garrison and drummer Rashied Ali. Brimming with fierce improvisational chops throughout, the ensemble continually pushes forward surreptitiously and unfettered. Highlights include the astounding 58-minute version of “My Favorite Things,” stretching its fusion to the outer limits.

Paul SantosSpecial Markets SalesNEIL FINN “Dizzy Heights”CD 5060186921181 $13.98 list • LP 5060186921204 $18.98 listFeb 11 marks the release of the first new album since 2009 from the former Crowded House and Split Enz leader. Once again Neil showcases his signature gift for nuanced, pluperfect pop. Co-produced by Dave Fridmann (Tame Impala, Flaming Lips) who contributes creative touches and surprising arrangements.

Kevin DeCapiteManager, Information ServicesLIFE AND TIMES “Tragic Boogie”CD 639980006926 $12.98 listRadiohead wishes they were this good! No disrespect, but Tragic Boogie haunts my sensorium with vocal melodies that absorb instead of hook. The rhythm section is brutally skilled while guitar textures weep into the beautiful sadness that tragically boogies.
