			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks again to all those that participated in the <a href="http://www.retroblog.net/2012/01/08/journey-greatest-hits-vol-2-cd-2011-review-and-giveaway/" target="_blank">Journey Greatest Hits Vol. 2 giveaway</a> on retroblog.  </p>
<p>With all the embarrassing <em>TMZ drama</em> some members of Journey are having to deal with nowadays (i.e. <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2012/01/26/journey-drummer-deen-castronovo-arrested-assault/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Deen Castronovo</a>, <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2012/01/30/journey-michaele-salali-neal-schon-music-video/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Neal Schon</a>), it&#8217;s probably better for all of us fans to just focus on the past hits, you know what I mean?  </p>
<p>I think Steve Perry did the right thing by bowing out gracefully back in 1996 and keeping his legacy intact.  With all this &#8220;celeb sleaze&#8221; type attention Neal and Deen are getting, they are rapidly tarnishing the &#8220;brand&#8221; that the band worked so hard to build all these years.  pretty sad I have to say.</p>
<p>Anyway, on to the <strong>winners</strong>!  Congrats to : <strong>Mary R.</strong> (entry #153) and <strong>Lisa</strong> (entry #55)</p>
<p>You should be receiving an email from me.  Be sure reply back with your full name and mailing address.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To finish-off their 40th anniversary reissue campaign, <strong>Queen</strong> will be releasing their definitive documentary titled <a href="http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8654595&#038;frm=lk_musicfirst" target="_blank" rel=nofollow">Days of Our Lives</a> on DVD and Blu-Ray here in the U.S. on January 31st.  </p>
<p>Originally aired in the UK on BBC 2 back in May, the two-part documentary received glowing reviews from journalists and fans alike.  But long-time fans weren&#8217;t completely satiated with the two hour TV special.  <em>They wanted more.</em>  So, maybe the new blu-ray release will help.  Besides the complete documentary, the blu-ray will include bonus footage that adds up to approximately 100 more minutes.</p>
<p>Check out the official press release below&#8230;</p>
<p><img src="http://www.retroblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/queenDVDs.jpg" alt="" title="queen - Days of Our Lives" width="500" height="250" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3115" /></p>
<p><strong>Queen &#8211; Days Of Our Lives</strong><br />
THE DEFINITIVE DOCUMENTARY ON THE WORLD’S GREATEST ROCK BAND IS COMING TO THE U.S. on DVD AND BLU-RAY On January 31<br />
To Be Released by Eagle Rock Entertainment through Eagle Vision</p>
<p><em>In 1971, four college students got together to form a rock band. Since then, that certain band called Queen have released 26 albums and sold over 300 million records worldwide. The popularity of Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon is stronger than ever 40 years on. On November 6, 2011, in front of an estimated TV audience of 1.2 billion they were honored with the Global Icon Award at the 2011 MTV EMA.</p>
<p>But for Queen the journey was no bed of roses. No pleasure cruise. Queen had their share of kicks in the face, but they came through &#8211; and this is how they did it.</p>
<p>Set against a backdrop of brilliant music and stunning live performances from every corner of the globe, Queen: Days of Our Lives &#8211; available in both Blu-Ray and standard DVD formats, brings Queen&#8217;s 40th Anniversary year to a close in suitably regal style.</p>
<p>Days Of Our Lives began as a two-part documentary produced by long-term Queen collaborators and life long fans Rhys Thomas (the comedian who famously broke the Mastermind all-time record points score with a specialist subject of Queen) and Simon Lupton, and directed by the renowned director Matt Casey. After 10 years of making Queen DVDs, Lupton and Thomas were asked by the band to produce the definitive 40th Anniversary documentary and after almost a year of painstaking research and editing, this was the result.</p>
<p>Split over two episodes, Part One covering 1970-80, Part Two 1980 – present day, the documentary is a genuine rollercoaster of rock and roll history.</p>
<p>In this film, for the first time, it is the band that tells their story. Featuring brand new interviews with Brian May and Roger Taylor and unseen archive footage &#8211; including their recently unearthed first ever TV performance &#8211; it is a compelling story told with intelligence, wit, plenty of humor and painful honesty.</p>
<p>Rhys Thomas comments, &#8220;We set out to make the definitive Queen documentary. It&#8217;s a funny, honest, inspiring and ultimately tragic account of &#8216;a certain band called Queen&#8217;, as told by the band themselves. We tell the story of four students who met in West London, slogged hard and conquered the world, ultimately changing rock music forever.&#8221;</p>
<p>When originally broadcast in the UK on BBC 2 across two nights in May of last year, Queen: Days of Our Lives was the highest rated TV show on in its slot, beating every other channel and peaking with 3 million viewers. It has been widely regarded as one of the finest rock documentaries made and the critical reaction was outstanding. &#8220;Funny that,&#8221; says Thomas, &#8220;considering Queen were always denounced by the press!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The Boys did a fantastic Job on this documentary &#8230; with little interference from us! I think this one will set the bench mark for years to come,&#8221; said Brian May.</p>
<p>Thomas explains the transfer of the original BBC documentary to DVD release: &#8220;When originally making the series it wasn&#8217;t easy condensing 40 years of Queen down to just two hours. In fact, there was so much more to be said and so much more to be seen. Thanks to Blu-Ray and DVD, so much more of that story can now be told…As the two documentaries worked so well, we resisted the idea of making an epic 3-hour ‘Extended Cut&#8217;. They are always boring, and as Freddie said to his manager Jim Beach in his last days: &#8220;Do anything you want with my music dear, but never make me boring!</p>
<p>&#8220;So rather than simply dump a load of ‘deleted scenes&#8217; onto the DVD and Blu-Ray, Simon and I decided to edit them all with as much love, time and care as we put into the main documentary. What we have as a result is a great companion to the main story and some real gems, most notably covering the formation of the band and the making of the last three albums which was only touched upon in the televised version. For instance, we learn from Brian how John Deacon made a cut in ‘Bohemian Rhapsody&#8217; for the record company and Freddie&#8217;s reaction; the revelation that Freddie was not sober during the making of ‘Spread Your Wings&#8217;/'We Will Rock You&#8217; in Roger&#8217;s back garden, and a hilarious sequence about Queen and their love of Scrabble.</p>
<p>&#8220;As well as the new sequences, there are 7 new videos. Excerpts were featured in the main documentary, but we have completed them, and here on DVD and Blu- Ray they appear in full.&#8221;<br />
The Blu-Ray format allows for additional bonus material and therefore differs in content to the Standard DVD release. Please check credits for each release.</em></p>

<p>Thanks again to all those that participated in my two recent giveaways here on retroblog.  I wanted to test out the new <em>rafflecopter</em> widget to see if it&#8217;d make running giveaways a bit easier and I have to say that it definitely helped the whole process &#8211; especially listing out all the eligible entries and randomly picking out a winner.  I also like the facebook/twitter integration.  All in all, the widget worked out great and I will continue to use it for future giveaways.</p>
<p>As for the winners &#8211; here they are:</p>
<p>The winner of the <a href="http://www.retroblog.net/2011/12/12/dvd-giveaway-bones-the-complete-sixth-season-rafflecopter/">BONES season 6 DVD</a> is: <strong>Jeremy B.</strong></p>
<p>The winner of <a href="http://www.retroblog.net/2011/12/13/paul-mccartney-the-love-we-make-dvd-giveaway-rafflecopter/">Paul McCartney&#8217;s The Love We Make DVD</a> is: <strong>Barbara W.</strong></p>
<p>Congrats!</p>
<p>Stay tuned for more!  and have a great weekend!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After 23 years and over 25 million copies sold, <a href="http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7226565&#038;style=music&#038;frm=lk_musicfirst" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Journey&#8217;s Greatest Hits</a> finally gets a second volume.  It&#8217;s pretty much a no-brainer to release a &#8220;sequel&#8221; to one of rock&#8217;s best selling compilations.  I&#8217;m just surprised it took the record label this long to do it.  Anyway, the new release is titled, what else, <a href="http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=8582363&#038;frm=lk_musicfirst" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Journey &#8211; Greatest Hits Vol. 2</a>.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m happy to report that the new release doesn&#8217;t appear to be some sort of haphazardly put-together &#8220;money-grab&#8221;.  In fact, none other than the great Steve Perry was on-hand for the remastering of this release.  It has been said that Perry still has approval rights for anything related to Journey&#8217;s back catalog.  Even though he hasn&#8217;t been the frontman for the band since 1996, it&#8217;s the Perry fronted-era that matters most, at least in terms of sales.  And so just like the first volume, volume 2 focuses on Perry related material.  Nothing from 1996 onward.  </p>
<p>Now, it&#8217;d be hard for any band to top those 16 tracks from the first compilation.  There&#8217;s just no-denying the power of classics like &#8220;Don&#8217;t Stop Believin&#8217;&#8221;, &#8220;Who&#8217;s Crying Now&#8221;, &#8220;Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)&#8221; and &#8220;Open Arms&#8221;.  So, Volume 2 is a bit of a step down in terms of actual bona-fide &#8220;hits&#8221;.  But as a companion piece to the first Greatest Hits disc, it actually works.  Songs like &#8220;Stone in Love&#8221;, &#8220;After the Fall&#8221;, &#8220;Escape&#8221; and &#8220;Suzanne&#8221; stand up pretty well with the previous volume.  There are a couple of odd choices that I personally would have changed out though.  I would have chosen &#8220;Message of Love&#8221; instead of &#8220;When I Think of You&#8221; from the album &#8220;Trial by Fire&#8221;.  And maybe something like &#8220;Why Can&#8217;t This Night Go On Forever&#8221; in place of &#8220;Good Morning Girl&#8221;.  But it&#8217;s nice that &#8220;Little Girl&#8221; was included since it&#8217;s on the often overlooked soundtrack album &#8220;Dream After Dream&#8221;.</p>
<p>As for the remastered sound &#8211; there&#8217;s noticeable EQ changes on some songs that help bring out some of the low end and soften some of the harshness of the high frequencies.  For example &#8220;Suzanne&#8221; always sounded a bit &#8220;bright&#8221; on the original CD with not enough bottom so this remaster corrected this and now sounds more evened out.  I wouldn&#8217;t say this is the &#8220;definitive&#8221; remaster in terms of perfect audio quality but sound engineer Robert Hadley along with Steve Perry succeeded in achieving a cohesive sound over all the various tracks on this compilation.</p>
<p>So, if you have <strong>GH Vol. 1</strong> and want to go a bit deeper into Journey&#8217;s catalog, <strong>Greatest Hits Vol. 2</strong> is a great buy.  As for longtime Journey fans, you probably have all these tracks in your music library but you might still want to check it out for the updated remastered sound.</p>

Out on DVD and Blu-ray December 6, 2011<br />
<em>It was one of the most emotional documentaries ever aired on the Showtime Cable Network. Now, for the first time, on December 6, fans will have a chance to own The Love We Make, a look back at Sir Paul McCartney and his efforts to plan and perform a benefit concert in the aftermath of the worst day in the history of New York City.<br />
Eagle Rock Entertainment will release the film, directed by Albert Maysles (Gimme Shelter) and Bradley Kaplan, on DVD and Blu Ray. Shot in stark 16 mm black and white, complete with color concert clips, The Love We Make juxtaposes dramatic images of &#8220;The Concert For New York City,&#8221; held mere months after 9/11, with that of scenes of McCartney himself as he walks the streets of the town that his former songwriting partner, John Lennon, loved so much.<br />
&#8220;It was an honor to be able to help New York and America at that time in its history,&#8221; said McCartney of the concert. &#8220;There was a feeling of shock and fear in the air that I thought we could help alleviate with music and the fact that so many people stepped up to join us made for a very uplifting evening for us all.&#8221;<br />
Recorded in DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby Digital 5.1 and LPCM Stereo, the 90-minute film features cameo appearances by President Bill Clinton, Mick Jagger, David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, Leonardo DiCaprio, Harrison Ford, Jay Z, Billy Joel, Elton John and many more in onstage and backstage moments.<br />
It is a film that no music fan can afford to miss. </em><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Eagle Rock Entertainment</strong> has been on a roll lately.  They&#8217;re putting smiles on the faces of classic rock fans the world over by releasing great new DVDs by Peter Gabriel, Lindsey Buckingham, Counting Crows, Dream Theater and Cream.  They&#8217;re also responsible for releasing the last live performance of the late great Gary Moore.  I have to say that the folks in charge of Eagle Rock have good taste in music!  Here&#8217;s the official announcement of the Gary Moore release:</p>
<p><em>EAGLE ROCK RELEASES GARY MOORE LIVE AT MONTREUX 2010 FEATURING THREE BRAND NEW SONGS ON CD, DVD, AND BLU-RAY SEPTEMBER 20, 2011<br />
Eagle Rock Entertainment recently released the very last live performance in the life of acclaimed guitarist/singer/songwriter Gary Moore. <a href="http://www.eagle-rock.com/product/EEB333879/Live+at+Montreux+2010" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Live At Montreux 2010</a> strikingly shows a major return-to-rock for the musician who spent years exploring the blues. In fact, in the last days of his life, Moore, who died on February 6 of this year, was working on a new rock album.<br />
What makes this release so compelling is the inclusion of three never-before-released gems, &#8220;Days Of Heroes,&#8221; &#8220;Where Are You Now&#8221; and &#8220;Oh Wild One,&#8221; that he previewed for the Montreux audience and had fully intended to put on the album he was writing and recording at the time. The rest of the set is heavy on the 1980s rock he pioneered solo, as well as his late 60s/70s work with Phil Lynott in Thin Lizzy and Skid Row. And, of course, some blues.<br />
Gary Moore was born in 1952 Belfast, Ireland. Heavily influenced by Fleetwood Mac&#8217;s Peter Green, he joined Skid Row (not to be confused with the American band of the same name) as a teenaged phenomenon in 1969 for three albums before going solo, joining Thin Lizzy, and going solo again. His hit single &#8220;Parisienne Walkways&#8221; catapulted him into the hearts and minds of discerning music lovers around the globe and subsequent forays into Celtic (Wild Frontier, 1987) and blues (Still Got The Blues, 1990) preceded an album with Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce (BBM, 1994). Much more blues would follow, most notably Power Of The Blues in 2004. Through it all, he maintained the highest level of musicianship and became revered for his constant searching and the redefining of his own artistry. </em></p>

<p><strong>The grand prize winner (Doctor Faith CD autographed by Christopher Cross) is Todd N. </strong></p>
