Dating from the 1970s, Rafael Kubelik’s incisive and acclaimed reading of Beethoven’s second and fifth symphonies in the Remastered Classics series from Pentatone, performed with panache by the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra and the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

Though influenced by the British Invasion, The Guess Who were purely Canadian rockers. The band scored a string of Top Ten hits in the late ’60s and early ’70s, including the psychedelic-romantic smash “These Eyes” and the riff-rocking anthem “American Woman”. The band was a huge success in the States and even performed at President Nixon’s inaugural ball (with the acerbic “American Woman” conspicuously omitted from the set list). Burton Cummings’ throaty baritone vocals and guitarist Randy Bachman’s theatrical riffs gave the band their versatile sound – and their rocking classics sound as vital today as they did when they were first released. This Dutton Vocalion’s reissue combines a pair albums from 1970 “American Woman” and “Share The Land”, remastered from the Original Master tapes by Michael J. Dutton.

While the Guess Who did have several hits in America, they were superstars in their home country of Canada during the 1960s and early '70s. However, further American success eluded the Guess Who until the 1969 Top Ten hit "These Eyes"; the recording session for the accompanying album, "Wheatfield Soul", was paid for by producer Jack Richardson, who mortgaged his house to do so. "Canned Wheat" produced three Top 40 singles later that year. This Dutton Vocalion's reissue combines both these albums, remastered from the Original Master tapes by Michael J. Dutton.

Soul shaker Wilson Pickett delivered one of his most versatile recordings in 1968 with the release of "The Midnight Mover". Produced by the legendary Tom Dowd, the album features Pickett’s signature growl and effortless blend of rock and soul. The album peaked in the Top 10 of Billboard’s Top R&B Albums. Included are the outstanding ballads, “It’s A Groove”, “Trust Me,” and “Down By The Sea”. Truly one of his funkiest releases, the album is a pivotal collection of astounding gems by the soul innovator.

"Touch Your Woman" is the ninth solo studio album by American country entertainer Dolly Parton. The title song was a top ten country single for Parton in early 1972. The album was produced by Bob Ferguson and, as was generally the case with Parton's early albums for RCA Records, contained mostly Parton's own compositions, along with a couple of covers. This may be the very moment where Dolly Parton emerges as a masterclass singer. Goosebump-inducing vocal trills elevate an already excellent composition. Listen closely, and you can hear the styles of Reba McEntire and Lee Ann Womack being born.

"The Golden Streets of Glory" is the sixth studio album by American country recording artist Dolly Parton, originally released on February 25, 1971. The album is a collection of gospel songs, including "I Believe" and "How Great Thou Art".
