25th ANNIVERSARY CD PACKAGE PRESENTS ORIGINAL
12-SONG ALBUM, SOARING ON THE WINGS OF ORIGINAL CHART HITS “HUNGRY EYES,” “SHE’S LIKE THE WIND,” “(I’VE HAD) THE TIME OF MY LIFE” AND MORE!

BONUS FEATURES OF THIS SPECIAL FAN EDITION:
• Six ready-to-frame art cards with iconic movie images, plus a bumper sticker;
• New hardcover package with liner notes by executive producer Jimmy Ienner,
producers Michael Lloyd and Leon Medica, and producer-performers
Eric Carmen and Zappacosta

Available everywhere September 25, 2012, through RCA/Legacy


            Responding to the feedback from loyal fans around the world, Legacy Recordings presents DIRTY DANCING­: THE DELUXE ANNIVERSARY EDITION, which presents the original 12-song album of 1987, along with new bonus features.  This special commemorative project reflects Legacy’s direct survey of a portion of the millions of Dirty Dancing fans on Facebook who responded and wished to maintain the experience of the original release by showcasing the original running order of the album as it was first released, without bonus tracks.  This special fan edition CD package will be available everywhere September 25th through RCA/Legacy, a division of SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT.
            DIRTY DANCING­: THE DELUXE ANNIVERSARY EDITION will contain a number of exciting additions specifically requested by the fans, starting with the package’s dedication to the movie’s star, the late Patrick Swayze (1952-2009).  The image-driven CD booklet contains six ready-to-frame art cards showing iconic images from the movie, plus a newly-designed bumper sticker.  Fans also voted on the CD cover image from four images proposed by Legacy, and overwhelmingly chose to retain the original “Lift” image.
            “From the birth, 25 years ago,” writes executive producer Jimmy Ienner, “to the never-ending success of the movie and the soundtracks, I’m very proud of all my great producers and the extremely talented artists that contributed so much to the very satisfying roller­coaster ride called  Dirty Dancing.  I’m also very indebted to anyone involved in any way on the music and the film sides of this wonderful journey.  Lastly, but no less important, to the devoted fans around the world for the unbelievable continued support.  Keep carrying the watermelons and enjoying the lifts.”
            The accompanying booklet includes behind-the-scenes liner notes written by the song producers, starting with Jimmy Ienner.  The stellar producers themselves then offer their own thoughts, including:
  • Eric Carmen, singer and producer of “Hungry Eyes”;
  • Leon Medica, producer of “Where Are You Tonight?” (sung by Tom Johnston);
  • Alfie Zappacosta, singer and producer of “Overload”; and
  • Michael Lloyd, producer of “She’s Like the Wind” (written and sung by Patrick Swayze), “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” sung by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes, and “Yes” sung by Merry Clayton;
            (Note: Eric Carmen and Zappacosta served double duty as both producers and performers of their respective tracks.)

            2012 marks the 25th anniversary of Dirty Dancing, named one of the Top 10 Date Movies of all time by an E! Entertainment Television poll, with worldwide box office sales of more than $214 million since its opening in 1987.  Worldwide CD sales of the best-selling original RCA soundtrack album are in excess of 42 million copies, 11-times RIAA platinum in the U.S. alone. 
            The Dirty Dancing soundtrack album soared on the wings of the original chart hits “Hungry Eyes” (Billboard Hot 100 #4); “She’s Like the Wind” (Hot 100 #3); and the Grammy®, Oscar, and Golden Globe Award-winning “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” (Hot 100 #1).  Those three songs were among the six original new songs produced for the soundtrack album, which spent 96 weeks on the Billboard 200 albums chart spanning 1987-’88-’89, including 18 weeks at #1.  The other four original tracks are:
·      “Yes” performed by Merry Clayton (produced by Michael Lloyd);
·      “Overload” performed, co-written and produced by Zappacosta; and
·      “Where Are You Tonight? ” performed by Tom Johnston.

            The Dirty Dancing soundtrack album also included five well-chosen pop classics that were featured in the movie.  Those five hits, all dating from the 1950s and ’60s, are:
  • “Be My Baby” by the Ronettes (Hot 100 #2, 1963);
  • “Stay” by Maurice Williams & the Zodiacs (Hot 100 #1, 1960);
  • “Hey Baby” by Bruce Channel (Hot 100 #1, 1962);
  • “Love Is Strange / Mickey & Sylvia (Hot 100 #11, 1957); and
  • “In The Still Of The Night” by the Five Satins (Hot 100 #24, 1956).

            The final track was recorded by former RCA group the Blow Monkeys from England, their cover of Lesley Gore’s 1964 hit, “You Don’t Own Me.” 
            A cornerstone of ’80s pop culture, Dirty Dancing reflected back on the early-’60s culture of summer vacation life at a resort in New York’s Catskill Mountains (although it was filmed on location in Virginia and North Carolina).  With its heavenly mix of generation gap melodrama, well-programmed rock, R&B, Latin and pre-disco music, coming-of-age sexuality among its teens, and of course plenty of laughs and “dirty dancing,” the movie has stood the test of time over the last quarter-century.
            Dirty Dancing starred 27-year old Jennifer Grey (in only her sixth movie role, her follow-up to Ferris Bueller’s Day Off in 1986) as young, naive “Baby” Houseman; 25-year old Patrick Swayze (only four years into his movie career, in between Red Dawn, which co-starred Grey, and Steel Dawn) as the sultry dance instructor Johnny Castle; and veteran character actor Jerry Orbach (four years before he began his 13-year stint on “Law & Order”) as Baby’s father, Dr. Jake Houseman.
           

            DIRTY DANCING­: THE DELUXE ANNIVERSARY EDITION (RCA/Legacy 88725 43528 2, originally issued August 1987, as RCA Victor 6408)  Selections: 1. (I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life / Love Theme performed by Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes • 2. Be My Baby / The Ronettes • 3. She's Like The Wind / Patrick Swayze (featuring Wendy Fraser) • 4.

2012 PROVES BANNER YEAR FOR AMERICAN ROCK BAND HEART WITH NEW STUDIO ALBUM & HARDCOVER MEMOIR ARRIVING THIS FALL


LEGACY RECORDINGS RELEASING FANATIC,
THE HARD-ROCK SUCCESSOR TO 2010's TOP 10 DEBUT RED VELVET CAR,
ON TUESDAY, OCTOBER 2

"Kicking and Dreaming: A Story of Heart, Soul and Rock and Roll,"
The Revelatory Memoir by Ann & Nancy Wilson On Sale Tuesday, September 18

June 27, 2012 (New York, NY) - With Heart's Fanatic, a new studio album, and Kicking and Dreaming, an insiders' memoir, arriving this fall, 2012 is shaping up as a banner year for the iconic American band who--beginning with hits like "Crazy on You," "Magic Man," and "Barracuda" in the mid-1970s running through 2010's Red Velvet Car--have created an enduring catalog of bona fide stadium rock classics and power ballads while establishing a lasting template for women in rock.

Fanatic, Heart's 14th studio album, arrives Tuesday, October 2.  The group's second full-length studio album for Legacy, Fanatic premieres 10 new essential performances from sisters Ann Wilson and Nancy Wilson on songs including "Fanatic," "Dear Old America," "Walkin' Good" (featuring Sarah McLachlan), "Skin and Bones," "Million Miles," "Pennsylvania," "Mashallah," "Rock Deep (Vancouver)," "59 Crunch," and "Corduroy Road."

The first album of new music from Ann and Nancy Wilson since 2010's Red Velvet Car had its Top 10 debut in 2010, Fanatic was recorded in hotel rooms and studios up and down the West Coast, with Grammy-winning producer Ben Mink back at the helm with the Wilson sisters drawing from their own lives and personal experiences as inspiration for their music.  "Dear Old America" comes from memories of a military household and is written from the point of view of their father, a Marine Corps officer, returning from war ("When I get home, I'm going to own this town/Shine this medal/Wear that crown…."); "Rock Deep (Vancouver)" harkens back to the city where Dreamboat Annie was written; and "Walkin' Good" (a duet with Vancouver resident Sarah McLachlan) captures the joy of finding new life in a new love.

The title song is a celebration of the Wilson's life spirit: Ann and Nancy are fanatics about love, art, truth, and the belief that they can do anything together they set their minds to.  Fans looking for a first taste of Fanatic can check out the title track on YouTube.

"What a crazy year we are having," said Ann Wilson.  "Our box set, Strange Euphoria, and our book, Kicking and Dreaming, each tell the story of our lives so far, personally and musically. Our new album, Fanatic, tells our story as it is now and brings it all up-to-the-minute. What a thrill to have worked with both Charles Cross and Ben Mink respectively on these, and of course to touch the musical magic Nancy and I have always shared together. Anybody want to RAWK??"

Released in 2010, Fanatic's predecessor, Red Velvet Car (the first new studio album in six years from the groundbreaking Seattle-based band) entered the Billboard 200 best-selling album charts at #10, becoming the seventh Top 10 album of Heart's career.  Heart's critically-acclaimed first album for Legacy Recordings marked the return of Heart to the Sony Music Entertainment family, reaching #1 in sales on Amazon.com on Sunday, September 5.

On June 5, Epic Records/Legacy Recordings released Strange Euphoria, the first definitive career-spanning, multi-label boxed set retrospective chronicling the seminal American rock band Heart, personally curated by Ann Wilson and Nancy Wilson.

A carefully-considered anthology of biggest hits and best-loved songs set alongside deep catalog treasures, rarities, demos and live performances, Strange Euphoria includes three compact discs and one DVD in a deluxe box.

Ann Wilson and her younger sister, Nancy Wilson, first showed the world that women can rock when their band Heart stormed the charts in the '70s with hits like "Crazy on You," "Magic Man," "Barracuda," "Straight On," "Even It Up," "Kick It Out" and many more.  Not only did the Wilson sisters lead the band, they wrote the songs and played the instruments, making them the first women in rock to do so.  Heart continued topping the charts through the '80s and into the '90s with huge hits like "These Dreams," "Alone," "Never," and a string of other hits that showcased the sisters' enormous talents as both musicians and singers. Along the way, Heart sold more than 35 million records, had 21 top 40 hits, sold out arenas worldwide, and profoundly influenced the sound and direction of American rock music while inspiring women (and guys too!) around the world to rock out in bands of their own.

Heart were 2008 recipients of VH1 Rock Honors, received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Northwest Grammy Foundation, and received ASCAP's award for Excellence in Songwriting in 2009. 

What's made Heart endure across four decades and 14 studio albums, from Dreamboat Annie (1976) through 2012's Strange Euphoria and Fanatic is simply the quality of the music and the Wilsons' deep connection to the emotions, psyches and experiences of their fans.

Heart will be touring throughout the summer and fall (June 29-November 17).  Alejandro Escovedo and Shawn Colvin will be supporting in October and November respectively.  Later this year, Ann and Nancy Wilson will be awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (followed by a live concert webcast).

Tuesday, September 18 marks the publication of the HarperCollins hardcover edition of Kicking and Dreaming: A Story of Heart, Soul and Rock and Roll, the avidly-awaited insider's memoir penned by Ann & Nancy Wilson with noted Seattle-based author Charles R. Cross ("Room Full of Mirrors - A Biography of Jimi Hendrix"; "Heavier Than Heaven" - a biography of Kurt Cobain).

Since finding their love of music and performing as teenagers in Seattle, Washington, Ann Wilson and Nancy Wilson have been an influential part of the rock music landscape. From 70s classics like "Magic Man" and "Barracuda" to chart- topping 80s ballads like "Alone" up to 2012's Fanatic, Heart continues as an ongoing force in pop culture, inspiring women and men alike with the power and beauty of their music.

Despite their massive success, Ann and Nancy have always faced a different kind of scrutiny than their male counterparts in hard-rock and metal band, and had to face questions that no male rock star ever would be asked. Kicking and Dreaming allows Ann and Nancy to communicate as directly with the reader as their songs do with fans.  A first-hand chronicle of tumultuous inter-band relationships, thirty years of roller-coaster fame and continual reinvention, and, of course, the kind of excess that can comes from the surreal, and hyper-real demands of life on the road, Kicking and Dreaming is an intimate, honest, and a uniquely female take on rock and roll life.

(Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee, 2011)
• DA DOO RON RON: THE VERY BEST OF THE CRYSTALS
• WALL OF SOUND: THE VERY BEST OF PHIL SPECTOR 1961-1966

50th ANNIVERSARY OF PHILLES RECORDS CELEBRATED IN 2011

All titles available at both physical and digital retail outlets
starting February 22, 2011, through Phil Spector Records/Legacy

Coinciding with PBS pledge-drive premieres in February:
• Rock, Pop, and Doo Wop featuring Ronnie Spector of the Ronettes
and La La Brooks of the Crystals
•The Concert Of Love starring Darlene Love


The 50th anniversary of the Philles Records label (1961-2011) has arrived. The long-range campaign promise announced in 2009 by Legacy Recordings and EMI Music Publishing, to dig deep into the rich catalog of Phil Spector’s ‘Wall Of Sound’ on Philles, moves ahead with four newly-compiled albums. The quartet of titles will be available at all physical and digital retail outlets starting February 22nd through Phil Spector Records/ Legacy, a division of SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT:
 DA DOO RON RON; THE VERY BEST OF THE CRYSTALS, 18 tracks including “There's No Other (Like My Baby),” “He Hit Me (It Felt Like A Kiss),” “He's A Rebel,” “He's Sure the Boy I Love,” “Da Doo Ron Ron,” and “Then He Kissed Me,” with numerous B-sides and rarities, plus the previously unreleased “Woman In Love (With You)”;
 BE MY BABY: THE VERY BEST OF THE RONETTES, 18 tracks including “Be My Baby,” “Baby, I Love You,’ “(The Best Part Of) Breakin' Up,” “Do I Love You?,” “Walking In The Rain,” and “I Can Hear Music,” with numerous B-sides and rarities, bonus solo tracks by Veronica (aka Ronnie Spector), plus the 1969 A&M single “You Came, You Saw, You Conquered”;
 THE SOUND OF LOVE: THE VERY BEST OF DARLENE LOVE, 17 tracks, her first comprehensive multi-label collection ever, including her own “(Today I Met) The Boy I'm Gonna Marry,” “Wait Til’ My Bobby Gets Home,” and “A Fine, Fine Boy,” plus examples of her work as lead singer with the Blossoms (in 1958 on Capitol Records, and later in 1965 on Reprise), the Crystals, and Bob B. Soxx and The Blue Jeans (“Why Do Lovers Break Each Others Hearts?,” “Not Too Young To Get Married”);
 WALL OF SOUND: THE VERY BEST OF PHIL SPECTOR 1961-1966, 17 tracks covering a cross-section of the top-charted A-side Philles hits from 1961 to ’66 by the Crystals, the Ronettes, Darlene Love, Bob B. Soxx and The Blue Jeans, plus special bonus tracks from the Righteous Brothers (“You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling”) and Ike & Tina Turner (“River Deep, Mountain High”).

With a phenomenal string of hit records by the Ronettes (2007 inductees into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame), Darlene Love (set for 2011 induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame), the Crystals, Bob B. Soxx and The Blue Jeans, the Righteous Brothers (2003 inductees into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame), and for a moment in time, Ike & Tina Turner (1991 Inductees into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame), the genius of Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame producer Phil Spector lit up singles charts in the U.S. and abroad throughout the 1960s. At the height of productivity at Philles Records, a new smash was hitting the racks virtually every month or two – an unprecedented track record then and now.
The upcoming album releases coincide with two special premieres scheduled for nationwide PBS pledge-drive events in February: Rock, Pop, and Doo Wop featuring Ronnie Spector of the Ronettes and La La Brooks of the Crystals; and The Concert Of Love starring Darlene Love (recently issued on DVD).
To understand the impact of Phil Spector’s studio creations, consider the first big two-year breakthrough of Philles Records releases, starting with the Crystals’ “There's No Other (Like My Baby)” in November 1961 (Philles 100) and “He's a Rebel” in September 1962 (Philles 106).
Virtually every single on the label became a bonafide hit over the next year or so: “Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah” by Bob B. Soxx & the Blue Jeans (Philles 107, November 1962), “He's Sure the Boy I Love” by the Crystals (Philles 109, December 1962), “Why Do Lovers Break Each Others Hearts?” by Bob B. Soxx & the Blue Jeans (Philles 110, February 1963), “(Today I Met) The Boy I'm Gonna Marry” by Darlene Love (Philles 111, April 1963), “Da Doo Ron Ron” by the Crystals (Philles 112, April 1963), “Not Too Young to Get Married” by Bob B. Soxx & the Blue Jeans (Philles 113, June 1963), “Wait 'Til My Bobby Gets Home” by Darlene Love (Philles 114, July 1963), “Then He Kissed Me” by the Crystals (Philles 115, August 1963), “Be My Baby” by the Ronettes (Philles 116, August 1963), “A Fine, Fine Boy” by Darlene Love (Philles 117, October 1963), “Baby I Love You” by the Ronettes (Philles 118, December 1963), and Darlene Love’s “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)” (Philles 119, November 1963). (The majority of these – including all the Ronettes and Darlene Love sides – were Ellie Greenwich/ Jeff Barry/Phil Spector compositions.)
Nearly a half-century later, the lion’s share of those hits continue to enthrall a new generation of listeners. From hitmakers like Katy Perry to auteur producers like Bruno Mars, the influence of Spector’s ‘Wall Of Sound’ continues to resonate.
One annual reminder has always been A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector, the 1963 LP whose tracks saturate the radio airwaves every year at holiday time: Darlene Love’s “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)” and “White Christmas,” the Crystals’ “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town,” the Ronettes’ “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus” and “Sleigh Ride” (“Ring-a-ling-a-ling-a / ding-dong-ding”), and all the rest of Spector’s rockin’ Christmas classics. That Christmas album now has a permanent home in Sony Music’s Legacy catalog, which released a newly-remastered version in October 2009.
Adding credence to the four new collections are their accompanying new liner notes essays: Lenny Kaye, veteran rock-writer/critic and long-time guitarist/producer and songwriter of the Patti Smith Group, covers the Ronettes; Sheryl Farber, three-time Grammy-nominated producer, writer and on-line radio host covers the Crystals; and Jim Bessman, veteran Billboard columnist and annotator of many Legacy releases, covers Darlene Love and the broad scope contained in the Phl Spector collection.
“There may be no pop music more iconic than ‘Be My Baby’ or ‘Da Do Ron Ron’,” said Adam Block, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Legacy Recordings, at the time of the announcement of the licensing agreement with EMI Music Publishing in 2009. “The ‘Wall of Sound’ is embedded in our musical DNA, the craft of these recordings, the quality of the songwriting and the power of the productions have established a standard that continues to inspire artists and musicians. The style, attitude and voices of great artists like Ronnie Spector and Darlene Love remain a presence in pop culture. We are delighted to be bringing these records to a whole new generation.”
