BLOGARRHEA: Brilliant New Documentary, 'Sinatra: All Or Nothing At All,' is American History
'Sinatra: All Or Nothing At All' is, although idolatrous in tone, the best Frank Sinatra documentary yet. With clips of the man in his prime to politics, civil rights and friends in high places, the music is riveting, the Rat Pack comes alive again and if you think you know all there is to know about Ol' Blue-Eyes, think again. Staple Singers Get Much Deserved 'Faith & Grace' Boxed Set on Stax/Concord Records [REVIEW]
Time to give thanks to The Staple Singers whose first comprehensive boxed set, 'Faith & Grace: A Family Journey 1953-1976' (Stax/Concord), contains 80 songs on four CDs and one extremely rare 7" vinyl single: "Faith and Grace" b/w "These Are They." It marks the first time this single has ever been released in any format since they originally had 500 pressed and sold them as a 78 r.p.m. at gigs.
