Rhino Rocktober - Positive Feedback

Rhino Entertainment has launched their Roctober and Now Playing Fall 2024 LP series, which combined feature 48 limited edition LP releases, with many of them being offered in ultra-cool colored-vinyl versions. The release package covers a broad range of artists and musical genres, and includes catalog album reissues, rare and long out-of-print LPs, previously never-released albums, and new compilations from notable Warner/Rhino artists. Many of the titles are pressed on standard-weight 140 gram vinyl, though some are pressed on heavier 180 gram LPs, and it appears that quite a few of them were pressed at Memphis Record Pressing (MRP). The surfaces of the LPs were for the most part flawless and glossy, and many arrived in rice paper-lined inner sleeves, although certain titles featured facsimiles of the original printed inner sleeves. The cool colored vinyl versions of many of these classic albums will appeal significantly to fans and collectors alike.

Little or no information was provided in terms of mastering, origin sources, etc., but it's obvious that all of these releases were given a superior level of care in advance of the LP pressings. Which were generally all superb, and offered very quiet playback; that even holds true for the cool colored-vinyl splatter titles. I've generally been able to hear the transition between the different colors of splattered vinyl, but that wasn't the case here, with the splatter titles providing a level of quiet that easily matched that of the other color variants in both series. There were a few surface scuffs and a couple of minor scratches, but that's part and parcel with the vinyl experience, and nothing I heard struck me as egregious—Rhino did an excellent job with this batch of reissues. Roctober and Now Playing series LPs are not available at Rhino's web store, the individual titles can only be found at online and brick and mortar locations, like your local independent record store. The actual selling price of each LP may vary slightly across online and in-store locations, though most single LPs appear to be priced from $20-$25 most everywhere.

I received review LPs for 19 of the 48 titles being released; should any additional stragglers arrive between now and the expiration of the series, I'll update my comments. Hey-ho let's go!

Texas Tornados: Now Playing, Ruby Red vinyl LP

The Texas Tornados were a Tejano/Tex-Mex supergroup that was initially formed by Doug Sahm, Freddy Fender, Flaco Jiménez, and Augie Meyers somewhere around 1989 in Austin, Texas. There are differing stories regarding how the band came into existence, which essentially grew out of a band Doug Sahm (of Doug Sahm's Jam Band in the Seventies) toured with and later reinvented by adding the star power of Freddy Fender and Flaco Jiménez. Some insist the creation of the band was simply a record label ploy to cash in on the surging popularity of Tex-Mex music, which combined elements of German and Norteño Mexican music with rock, country, and various other Mexican styles. Regardless, the Texas Tornados were immensely popular, and their ability to fuse a mixture of English and "Spanglish" lyrics increased their appeal, whether it was intentional or simply out of necessity. Regardless, the music makes for an enjoyable mix of styles, and this compilation covers the period of their greatest influence from 1990 to 1996. Highlights include "Who Were You Thinkin' Of," "(Hey Baby) Que Paso," "Adios Mexico," and Freddy Fender's classic "Wasted Days and Wasted Nights." The LP was pressed at MRP on beautiful ruby red-colored vinyl; this LP was exceptionally entertaining, and would be great fun to throw on at a party! Highly recommended.

John Prine: Now Playing, Cobalt Blue vinyl LP

Singer/songwriter John Prine needs no introduction, and this Now Playing compilation covers the period of his most notable success from 1971 to 1979, scattered across six LPs for Atlantic and later Asylum. Prine was particularly known for being a superb storyteller with songs that highlighted his droll witticisms and keen sense of irony. While this record doesn't necessarily concentrate on the songs that garnered the most attention or airplay, it does open with his hilariously memorable "Illegal Smile," which came from his eponymous debut LP. Also included from that record are the classic tracks "Paradise" and "Angel From Montgomery." Also featured are tunes from the albums Diamonds In The Rough (1972), including "The Great Compromise," the title track from Sweet Revenge (1973) along with "Please Don't Bury Me," "Saddle In The Rain" from Common Sense (1975), the whimsical "Fish and Whistle" from Bruised Orange (1978), and Pink Cadillac's (1979) "How Lucky." Prine's albums were never particularly well-recorded, and this new LP doesn't improve significantly on that. It was, however, supremely quiet, and the cobalt blue vinyl was beautifully alluring as it spun on my table. Highly recommended.

Jefferson Starship/Starship: Now Playing, Cobalt Blue vinyl LP

This Now Playing compilation combines singles from Jefferson Starship along with those from the later incarnation of the band that was known simply as Starship. Side one is dominated by the Marty Balin/Paul Kantner/Grace Slick era, and features tracks from the albums Red Octopus, Spitfire, and Earth, including the hits "Miracles," "With Your Love," "Count On Me," and "Runaway." Side two mostly focuses on the rebirth of the band with Mickey Thomas and Grace Slick at the fore. Featuring songs from the albums Knee Deep In The Hoopla and No Protection, including the hits "We Built This City," "Sara," and "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now." While the single edits of classic Jefferson Starship songs seem disjointed compared to the album versions, it's at least good to have them together with the handful of surprisingly entertaining Starship tracks on a single collection. YMMV, but I like it, and the transparent cobalt blue pressing from MRP is definitely a bonus. Recommended.

Spooky Rock: Now Playing, Jack-O-Lantern Orange vinyl LP

Spooky Rock: Now Playing is the most seasonally-appropriate highlight of the Now Playing releases this go-around, and not only features a cool collection of devilishly spooky tracks, but also a pumpkinny opaque orange pressing. And the stylish album jacket features campy, cartoony Halloween artwork with embedded glow-in-the-dark elements! Musical highlights include Talking Heads' "Psycho Killer," INXS' "Devil Inside," the Ramones' "Pet Sematary," an edit of Television's "Marquee Moon," Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London," and Alice Cooper's "Welcome To My Nightmare." This record is fun on every level, the superb orange pressing sounds and looks great, and it's perfect for spinning at that ab fab Halloween party! Highly recommended!

T. Rex: Now Playing, Ruby Red vinyl LP

This excellent Now Playing compilation from T. Rex reminded me from the moment the needle hit the first groove on side one's "Ride A White Swan" that I desperately need to drag out my T. Rex albums much more often! While this collection only features tracks from the era of the Marc Bolan and company's first two albums, T. Rex and Electric Warrior, the non-album tracks like the aforementioned "Ride A White Swan," along with "Hot Love" and "Raw Ramp" are exceptionally entertaining, and alone are worth the low price of admission for this superb record. Of course, there are undeniable classics like "Bang A Gong (Get It On)," "Jeepster," "Life's A Gas," and "Mambo Sun," so it's really hard to go wrong here—this one's definitely a keeper. The transparent red pressing is the icing; T. Rex Now Playing comes very highly recommended!

Wiz Khalifa: Now Playing, Opaque Blue vinyl LP

Wiz Khalifa's Now Playing collection grabs you from the moment "Black and Yellow" opens side one, pouring forth with its magical synth-based vibe; when Snoop Dogg appears in the song's center, it ices the performance. This compilation collects tracks and singles from the rapper's albums scattered across the period from 2011 to 2018, including Rolling Papers (2011), the soundtrack to Mac and Devin Go to High School (2011, also featuring Snoop), O.N.I.F.C. (2012), and Blac Hollywood (2014). All those albums showcase a literal who's who of guest performances from all corners of rap and pop music. Highlights include the previously mentioned "Black and Yellow," "See You Again," "We Dem Boyz," the single duo with Lil Wayne, "Sucker For Pain," and "Work Hard, Play Hard." The opaque blue vinyl pressing from MRP was not only beautiful, but also nice and quiet, allowing Wiz Khalifa's grooves to shine through. Highly recommended!

Deep Purple: Machine Head, Black vinyl LP

I reviewed Dweezil Zappa's 2024 remix of Deep Purple's Machine Head as part of the Super Deluxe Edition release back in May, which included the same (albeit, in colored vinyl) LP inside the box; you can read that review HERE. In terms of sound quality and excellence, the black vinyl LP is every bit as great as the colored vinyl version in the box, and many fans will now be very happy to have it available as a stand-alone LP. Very highly recommended!

The Doobie Brothers: Toulouse Street, Clear vinyl LP

I spent the summer of 1973 in San Francisco, and The Doobie Brothers's Toulouse Street—which was just reaching its stride at that point—was the soundtrack to much of that period for me. This was my first introduction to the Doobies, and its been in regular rotation ever since, going on past the fifty-year mark now. "Listen To The Music," "Rockin' Down The Highway," "Jesus Is Just Alright," the title track "Toulouse Street," and "Disciple" rocked my world way back then, and haven't lost much ground in five decades! Chris Bellman's initials are clearly visible in the deadwax—this one was mastered by "CB" at Bernie Grundman Mastering, and you can definitely hear that it came from the original tapes. The cool and beautiful clear vinyl pressing smokes my WB label original in every respect. Very highly recommended!

The Doobie Brothers: What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits, Clear vinyl LP

I bought this record the day it was released in 1974, and I just about wore out my Warner Brothers label original by virtually playing it to death. The Doobies were riding an artistic and creative wave at the time, and there isn't a bad track on this record, which plays like a greatest hits collection. With still-relevant tunes like "Another Park, Another Sunday," " Black Water," "Eyes of Silver," "Daughters of the Sea/Flying Cloud," "Spirit," and "Tell Me What You Want (And I'll Give You What You Need)." This one was also mastered by Chris Bellman, and it easily bettered my WB original—don't hesitate to grab this title before its gone! Very highly recommended!

Fleetwood Mac: Heroes Are Hard to Find (50th Anniversary), Clear/Black/Bone Splatter vinyl LP

This classic mid-period Fleetwood Mac album, 1974's Heroes Are Hard to Find, comes from the Bob Welch period with the band, and was the first album they'd record in the US. It was also Welch's last album, following a tumultuous period where the band members had to sue their former manager, who attempted to tour an alternate lineup as Fleetwood Mac. The band prevailed, and following Welch's departure, Lindsay Buckingham and Stevie Nicks came on board, and well—you know the rest of the story! Heroes Are Hard to Find is definitely an overlooked gem in the Mac catalog, and features great songs like the title tune, the spacey instrumental "Coming Home," Bob Welch's "Angel," the spooky "Bermuda Triangle," and "Prove Your Love." It didn't hit the heights that the follow-up album, Fleetwood Mac, would reach, but it's definitely a classic. This 50th Anniversary reissue was also remastered by Chris Bellman, and the ultra-cool clear/black/bone splatter vinyl is not only mesmerizing to watch spinning, but also sounds amazing. Very highly recommended!

Foreigner: Head Games, Translucent Light Blue vinyl LP

1979's Head Games was Foreigner's third studio album, and moved even further away from the almost proggy roots of their debut record. Most of the songs really resonated with me, and it soon became the soundtrack of my life for many months following its release. Especially the tune "Rev On The Red Line," which quickly supplanted Golden Earring's "Radar Love" as my preferred late-night driving song; my then-current relationship was going nowhere, and I just wanted to roll along remote stretches of asphalt at maximum rpm's to assuage my anguish. And, of course, "Head Games" fit perfectly into that puzzle, as well as "Do What You Like"! The album has many great songs, like "Dirty White Boy," "Love On The Telephone," and "Blinded By Science" (not that one, it was still a couple of years off!). MRP's translucent light blue vinyl pressing was supremely quiet and exceptionally cool, although maybe a red one might have matched the album jacket's aesthetics more appropriately. A blast from the past, and highly recommended!

INXS: X, Translucent Red vinyl LP

Most of INXS' catalog came following the advent of the compact disc, and I have to admit—1990's X is the first of the Australian band's albums I've ever heard on my system on LP! X was the band's seventh studio album, and was one of the last to enjoy substantial mainstream commercial and critical success, with a pair of singles that propelled the record's sales, "Suicide Blonde" and "Disappear." The tour that followed the release of X was hugely successful for the band, and a July 1991 tour stop at Wembley Stadium in London was filmed and recorded for the live album Live Baby Live and an eventual concert DVD release. The Wembley show was the highest-grossing tour stop for the band ever, and cemented their reputation as a major concert draw. X is an immensely energetic and entertaining album, and the Rocktober translucent red vinyl pressing was beautifully superb in every way possible. Very highly recommended!

Jenny Lewis: The Voyager (10th Anniversary Edition), Sea Blue vinyl LP

Singer/Songwriter Jenny Lewis' The Voyager came in 2014 following the breakup of her longtime band Rilo Kiley. Lewis has said that the Ryan Adams-produced The Voyager came at a time of great difficulty for her, and helped her work through a number of intense personal situations that nearly resulted in her complete meltdown. This Rocktober LP release celebrates the album's tenth anniversary, and represents only the second vinyl repress of the album in a decade. Lewis explores a vast range of repertory in The Voyager, exploring themes that touch on Americana, alt pop, jangly-guitarred folk rock, new wave, and even Lewis' own takes on more sophisticated mainstream rock. The album was a commercial and critical success, debuting at number 9 on Billboard's album charts upon release. Even though vinyl was already making a resurgence ten years ago, this pressing marks the first time I've heard an LP of this record on my system. It's filled with great tunes like the opener, "Head Underwater," "Just One of the Guys," and "Slippery Slopes" (I love the line about "mushrooms and coke"!). "Late Bloomer" has a serious alt-country vibe, and "You Can't Outrun 'Em" has a great grungy guitar motif that recurs throughout the song. The translucent sea-blue vinyl LP matched the aesthetic of the album cover perfectly, and it was sonically flawless as well. Very highly recommended, I guarantee you that Jenny Lewis' angelic voice will totally win you over!

Morphine: Cure for Pain, 140-gram Black vinyl LP

Morphine's 1993 release Cure for Pain was the second studio album by the Cambridge, Massachusetts alternative rock band who distinguished themselves from many other acts with the strong presence of Dana Colley's baritone and tenor saxophone throughout much of the band's music. Cure for Pain has never seen a mainstream release on LP, other than several very limited-edition colored-vinyl issues from the Light In The Attic label. And despite also now being part of a limited-edition series, this new Roctober release marks the first broad based reissue of the LP—ever. Everyone needs a copy of this excellent album in their collection; Morphine's music had immense appeal, and the songs on Cure for Pain ring with instant familiarity, even if you've never heard them. Highlights include "Buena," "I'm Free," "In Spite of Me" (which is perhaps the most atypical song on the entire album with its mandolin accompaniment), "Thursday," and the title track, "Cure for Pain." The album's closer, "Miles Davis' Funeral," is a poignant but brief instrumental that leaves you aching for more! The MRP pressing had superb recorded sound, but showed a significant level of scuffing on the surfaces. Surprisingly, it was tolerably quiet. Recommended, especially because the music is so essential.

Stone Temple Pilots: No. 4, Black/White Splatter vinyl LP

I fell off the Stone Temple Pilots' bandwagon following 1996's Tiny Music...Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop, and the three-year hiatus the band took while singer Scott Weiland was in rehab didn't help. So I basically ignored their later output, and didn't initially hear their fourth studio album, No. 4, when it was finally released in 1999. Which was a shame, because No. 4 actually was a much-needed return to form for the band, and the album cranked out really great songs. Like "Down," with its heavy guitar intro, "Heaven and Hot Rods," "No Way Out," and of course, the big hit, "Sour Girl," which featured a very alluring Sarah Michelle Geller in the song's video. "Glide" opens with a really cool guitar figure, and maintains a nice vibe throughout. "Atlanta" is the real outlier here, with a kind of Jim Morrison/Doors vibe over much of the track's runtime, and is a satisfying closer that's stylistically very different from the album's other songs. The opaque black and white splatter vinyl is irresistible to watch, and the sound quality of the pressing was superb. Very highly recommended!

Stone Temple Pilots: Shangri-LA DEE DA, Neon Yellow/Orange Splatter vinyl LP

2001's Shangri-LA DEE DA was the fifth studio album from Stone Temple Pilots and their last with producer Brendan O'Brien at the helm. The album reached number 9 the Billboard album charts, and generally received positive critical praise, though it didn't reach the platinum sales levels of its predecessors. Still, a pair of singles helped propel album sales, "Days of the Week," which reached the top 5 of the Billboard singles charts, and "Hollywood Bitch" which didn't reach quite the same heights. I personally found Shangri-LA DEE DA to be an enjoyable listen, with an entertaining fusion of a diverse array of musical styles. And despite frequent reports of the less than harmonious relationship between Weiland and the other STP members at the time, the album sounds like a band playing with a shared common mission. Critics started referring to their songs as "pop metal," and that's an apt descriptor that pretty much nails this LP on the head. The neon yellow/orange splatter vinyl LP was as much fun to watch spinning as it was to listen to, and the splatter vinyl exhibited no detrimental sonic character during playback. Highly recommended!

Foghat: Foghat Live, Transparent Orange vinyl LP

Here's another album I basically played to death at the time of its original release! Foghat's 1977 Foghat Live went on to become the band's biggest selling album of all time, going double platinum, and it contains their biggest hits, including extended workouts of their classics "Fool For The City," " I Just Want To Make Love To You," and especially "Slow Ride." Having emerged from Savoy Brown, Foghat also showed their blues cred with rousing tunes like "Home In My Hand," "Road Fever," and "Honey Hush." The transparent orange LP is super cool, and the sound quality definitely trashes my Bearsville label original, plus the LP jacket duplicates the original's die cut front cover. There's also an insert with cool new album notes from Foghat drummer Roger Earl; Foghat Live comes very highly recommend, and has been in constant rotation since its arrival!

Foreigner: Double Vision, Translucent Grape vinyl LP

Foreigner's 1978 release Double Vision was the band's second studio album, and was a monster hit, going 7x platinum while reaching number 3 on the Billboard album charts. It started Foreigner's move away from the nearly proggish sound of their first LP, with a more straight-ahead rock style, as evidenced by the hit singles "Hot Blooded," "Double Vision," and "Blue Morning, Blue Day." The band also got extended FM airplay with the tracks "Lonely Children," "Spellbinder," and the spooky instrumental "Tramontane." I bought this album on the day of its release, after hearing "Tramontane" on local Atlanta radio—it made that much of an impression on me! The translucent grape vinyl LP matched the album jacket's purplish vibe perfectly, and with stellar sound quality that easily bettered my Atlantic label original. Highly recommended!

Yes: YesSingles 2, Blue and White Splatter vinyl LP

As a record of mostly singles and single edits, YesSingles 2 isn't typically the kind of album I race to the record store screaming for, but as something of a Yes completist and a sucker for cool splatter vinyl, well of course I'm there! Despite any reservations, after putting the Rocktober LP on the table and just admiring it spinning around, upon the needle drop and hearing the almost jazzy syncopation of Bill Bruford's drumming on the album's intro track, "Something's Coming," I was completely hooked! The album covers early Yes on side one, with "Sweetness," "Looking Around," and "Sweet Dreams" in addition to the opener. Side two opens with a single edit of "Going For The One," then follows with 90125's "It Can Happen," along with a pair of songs from Big Generator, "Rhythm Of Love" and "Love Will Find A Way." The closer, "Make It Easy," had its genesis in an early Trevor Rabin tune, but didn't appear on an album until the 1991 Yesyears box set. The blue and white splatter vinyl looks cool and sounds great, and the modern-with-a-retro nod album jacket is stylishly hip. YesSingles 2 comes highly recommended!

Rhino's Rocktober and Now Playing Series will rock your Fall season!

You can see the components in my audio systems by clicking on my name in the header above. I used my all-analog system for my evaluations of the Rocktober and Now Playing Series LPs. That system now features a new pair of XSA Labs Vanguard compact monitor loudspeakers, which are built to many of the same specifications as classic British monitor designs like the LS3/5A's. I'm using them in tandem with a Caldera 10 subwoofer to add a couple of extra octaves to the bass response. That setup also incorporates the excellent new PS Audio Stellar phono preamp, and the loudspeakers are powered by my PrimaLuna EVO 300 tube integrated amplifier. The EVO 300 features a matched quad of Sovtek 6550 power tubes and a pair of vintage, NOS Brimar 12AU7 output tubes, both of which provide an impressive uptick in my analog sound quality. LP playback was handled by the ProJect Classic turntable that's mounted with an Ortofon Quintet Bronze moving coil cartridge. The combination gave these LPs the finest sound quality one could possibly expect!

As typical with mid-priced LP series like Rocktober and Now Playing, there were a few scuffs and scratches, which is to be expected. Surprisingly, many of the LPs arrived inserted in rice paper-lined inner sleeves, which greatly reduced any static charge and dust buildup. That said, the sound quality of the music was for the most part exceptional, and I had very few complaints with the pressings. These are limited availability releases, and will likely go quickly from record store shelves, so don't hesitate to pull out that credit card! Thanks to Miranda Alston at Rhino for all her assistance; the LPs in the Rocktober and Now Playing series come very highly recommended!
