  • Kygo X Tina Turner “What's Love Got to Do with It” Out
    KYGO X TINA TURNER “WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT” OUT NOW Global superstar, producer and DJ, Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll – a.k.a Kygo, teams up with the incomparable, brilliant, and legendary Grammy Award winning superstar Tina Turner to unveil a remake of “What’s Love Got To Do With It” – Turner’s iconic #1 song that was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame and is included in Rolling Stone Magazine’s list of “The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.” “What’s Love Got To Do With It” comes alongside a brand new video directed by Sarah Bahbah and stars Laura Harrier (Hollywood, Blackkklansman) and Charles Michael Davis (The Originals, The Vampire Diaries). Listen / Watch here HERE – out now via Sony Music International/Ultra Records/RCA Records. Says Kygo, “I couldn’t be more excited to collaborate with Tina Turner, who is an icon that I grew up listening to. ‘What’s Love Got To Do With It’ is one of my all-time favorite songs so to have a chance to rework it has been a very special moment in my career. I love working around timeless vocals and although it’s challenging to preserve elements of the original track and adding my own touch, I’m extremely happy with how it turned out!” It’s been a big summer for Kygo who back in May released his critically acclaimed third full-length album Golden Hour which features his hit single “Lose Somebody” with OneRepublic as well as “Higher Love” with Whitney Houston, the latter of which has more than 651 million audio and video streams combined and charted at Top 40 radio.

  • Directed by Morgan Neville Produced by Gil Friesen Produced by Caitrin
    Directed by Morgan Neville Produced by Gil Friesen Produced by Caitrin Rogers WORLD PREMIERE U.S. DOCUMENTARY COMPETITION SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL 2013 Running Time: 90 minutes | Language: English SYNOPSIS Millions know their voices, but no one knows their names. In his compelling new film TWENTY FEET FROM STARDOM, award-winning director Morgan Neville shines a spotlight on the untold true story of the backup singers behind some of the greatest musical legends of the 21st century. Triumphant and heartbreaking in equal measure, the film is both a tribute to the unsung voices who brought shape and style to popular music and a reflection on the conflicts, sacrifices and rewards of a career spent harmonizing with others. These gifted artists span a range of styles, genres and eras of popular music, but each has a uniquely fascinating and personal story to share of life spent in the shadows of superstardom. Along with rare archival footage and a peerless soundtrack, TWENTY FEET FROM STARDOM boasts intimate interviews with Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Mick Jagger and Sting to name just a few. However, these world-famous figures take a backseat to the diverse array of backup singers whose lives and stories take center stage in the film. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT About two years ago, I sat down with Gil Friesen, a longtime music industry veteran from A&M Records, whom I only knew by reputation. He told me he wanted to make a film about backup singers. He didn’t know what the film was going to be, but he knew there was something intriguing in there.

  • EARL THOMAS and the KINGS of RHYTHM BLU * RO * SO * FUNK - a Combination of Blues, Rock, Soul & Funk
    EARL THOMAS AND THE KINGS OF RHYTHM BLU * RO * SO * FUNK - a combination of Blues, Rock, Soul & Funk. In 1971, Earl Thomas became the lead singer of the Kings Of Rhythm, famed backing band formed by legendary musician and bandleader Ike Turner. The only trouble was, the band did not find out until 2008. It was in a small theatre on the island of Guam where Earl’s father had brought his son to see the movie Soul To Soul. A career naval officer and amateur musician, he wanted to impress an appreciation of soul music on his young boy. During the opening credits, Ike and Tina Turner appear with the (original) Kings of Rhythm performing the movie’s theme song of the same name and it was at that moment, the young Earl turned to his father and said, “Daddy, that’s what I’m gonna be when I grow up. I’m gonna be a singer in a band!” Apparently a father’s gentle nudge had turned into a shove. And, from that moment on, Earl lived the idea that he fronted the band. He pretended that he was the lead singer of the band. The family living room was turned into an imaginary stage where, everyday after school, the couch became the drummer, lamps were the horn section, a shelf the bass, an end table was the guitarist, and right in the middle was Earl, with his dinner candle microphone channeling Ike & Tina Turner. “All I knew was that I wanted to do what I saw those people doing on the screen,” remembers Thomas.

  • And a Letter to My Customers ===
    --- == ROOTS & RHYTHM - SALE 01/12/2014 - AND A LETTER TO MY CUSTOMERS === --- Dear Friends Happy New Year! We hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. NOTE: Regrettably our holiday season was the slowest we've ever seen and it may mean that we will not be able to continue operating our business for very much longer. I am no longer a young man (not by a long shot!) and don't have the energy to pursue ways in which we may be able to promote the business. I would love to be able to settle down and listen to all the music I have gathered over the years in a relaxed setting and with critical reviewing faculties turned off. I would love to see Roots & Rhythm continue and thrive and even if we make it through the current crisis I would still like to get away from the stress of running a business so I am open to having someone else take over and move the company forward. If you are such a person or know such a person please contact me and we can discuss it. This list consists of a sale which we hope will raise enough money to help us get caught up with our suppliers and our taxes as well as some other pressing expenses. This list features 600 titles in all covering all the genres of music we specialize in and featuring books, DVDs and compact discs. This list includes manufacturer?s overstocks and deletions, our own excess inventory and a lot of titles that have been sitting on our shelves that have never been listed before.

  • Snapper Happy to Get 'The Blues'
    SNAPPER HAPPY TO GET ‘THE BLUES’ SNAPPER MUSIC is delighted to announce that it has secured the theatrical, DVD, video and broadcast rights to Martin Scorsese’s eagerly anticipated film series, The Blues. The Blues, executive produced by legendary director Martin Scorsese, is a seven-film series of personal and impressionistic films viewed through the lens of seven world- famous directors who share a passion for the music. In addition to Scorsese’s film, Charles Burnett, Clint Eastwood, Mike Figgis, Marc Levin, Richard Pearce and Wim Wenders each capture the essence of blues music and delve into its global influence – from its roots in Africa to its inspirational role with today’s top artists. Snapper is scheduling the theatrical release of all seven films and will be announcing product timelines shortly. Snapper will also be working alongside Sony Music who in October will be releasing a 5-CD deluxe boxed set, Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues, along with the single CD Best Of. In addition, next year will see Sony and Universal release The Blues - 21 additional single CD compilations that offer an overview of the project and will feature 12 individual artists collections, among them Eric Clapton, BB King, Bessie Smith, Muddy Waters, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Robert Johnson. Also available will also be the soundtrack CDs from each of the seven films. Commented Dougie Dudgeon, Snapper Music: “We are very excited to have the opportunity of working on a series of this importance, put together by some of the greatest filmmakers in the world, that will further the reach of one of the most important music genres.
