Ronnie Spector – English Heart

My teenage years were influenced among other things, by rock and roll and girl groups. Two of my favorite girl groups were The Shangri-Las and The Ronettes.

Last week, Ronnie Spector released a new recording, English Heart on 429 Records. The album is Ronnie’s personal love letter to 1960s Britain, where she and her fellow Ronettes held court with British Invasion royalty. The eleven tracks of English Heart include songs by the Kinks (“Tired of Waiting”), the Animals (“Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood”), the Beatles (“I’ll Follow the Sun”), and Gerry & the Pacemakers (“Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying”).

Here is her interview with Scott Simon from NPR Music last week. Love her energy.

Los Lobos Tandem Release September

I have wondered what was going on with the next Los Lobos studio album. Now I know. The album is called “Gates of Gold”  and will be released on September 25th. You may sample all the tracks on the music player on the 429 Records Los Lobos Web page previously mentioned.

The “Gates of Gold” track listing is as follows:

  1. Made to Break Your Heart
  2. When We Were Free
  3. Mis-Treater Boogie Blues
  4. There I Go
  5. Too Small Heart
  6. Poquito Para Aqui
  7. Gates of Gold
  8. La Tumba Sera El Final
  9. Song of the Sun
  10. I Believed You So
  11. Magdalena

The Gates of Gold recording will be complemented by a new book Los Lobos, Dream In Blue authored by their old friend, Chris Morris, published by The University of Texas Press.

Los Lobos discusses the tandem product release at The Fairfield Theatre Company in Fairfield, CT.

I look forward to next month’s new Los Lobos content with great anticipation 😉 Peace, Ese
