Editor Pick: Music

Most of the rock and roll from Little Richard's early career is collected here on three discs, including all the big hits.

On 'White,' by the Rooftop Revolutionaries, lead singer Eleanor Goldfield provides wailing, throat-ripping vocals. Imagine a hybrid of Joan Jett and Patty Smyth pumped up on performance enhancing substances.

The six tracks on ‘Sightlines’ range from downtempo pop to dance/house-flavoured.

New albums from contemporary jazz singers with varying agendas.

Music is music, and in the hands of the right musician any and all music is ripe for creative renewal.

Gary McFarland, the jazz musician, composer and arranger who 'should have been a pop star,' left behind and eclectic discography and a wealth of superb material that deserves just such a tribute as this.

Postmodern jazz old and new.

'In the Beginning' is not the mature Wes Montgomery at the top of his game, but early Montgomery is nothing to sneer at.

Excellent new mixes, though not much concert video, in a new 2CD/2DVD edition of the classic prog-rock album from 1975.

Bob Wills in indeed still the king, and Asleep at the Wheel and friends prove it on this perfect tribute album.
