Word !!!! Tabu is doing it up nicely. Man, if there was a Cameo boxset, I think my head would explode. I love how their spacing the releases out, too.

Wow! Tabu had a lot of artists they didn't promote very well. Outside of Alex, Cherrelle and the SOS Band, I never heard of most of these other artists. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

Too bad Cameo wasn't on Tabu, huh?! I've only got "Alligator Woman" on an expensive import, but I got it five years ago. They really need to put out the Cameo catalog and yes, Tabu is REALLY kickin' it with these AWESOME reissues/box sets! I already can't wait for NEXT YEAR'S tax refund! LOL! Peace, brothas! Hungry? Just look in the mirror and get fed up. | |

Two further artist-specific ‘anthology’ boxes will be made available – Alexander O’Neal and The S.O.S. Band. These sets will contain all the individual releases issued during 2013 (in the same packaging) but gathered together in a box. There will be no extra audio in these boxes – the content will simply repeat the individual reissues. Nick Ashford was someone I greatly admired, had the honor of knowing, and was the real-life inspiration for Cowboy Curtis' hair. RIP Nick. - Pee Wee Herman | |

The Tabu catalogue isn’t the only major acquisition of late for the Demon Music Group. Demon, home to labels including Edsel, Harmless and Music Club Deluxe, has recently completed a deal for much of the solo catalogue of onetime Go-Go Belinda Carlisle. Demon will pick up four studio albums from Carlisle, the rights to which reside with Virgin (part of the former EMI) until May. Demon’s agreement covers the world, except for the U.S. and Canada, and includes physical and digital catalogue rights as well as third party and neighboring rights.

Many great reissues seeing here on the thread.
First time I see that Tom Browne album reissued. Not sure if it was done before. Excellent that Ndugu's Chocolate Jam gets a second run. Never before saw that New York Community Choir album. Likeky a gospel group? That genre is popular among boogie collectors. | |

Not just a second run, Funky Town Grooves always includes the single versions after the normal album tracklist. | |

I just ordered the 1973 Azteca album Pyramid Of The Moon which has recently been remastered/reissued....
Pyramid Of The Moon - Azteca
AZTECA, formed in 1972 in Oakland, was the vision of brothers Coke and Pete Escovedo following their successful time playing along side Latin-funk trailblazers, Santana. They are widely regarded to be the first large-scale group that combined multiple musical elements centred around and built as a Latin orchestra.
Born in the legendary Bay Area of San Francisco, Pete and Coke Escovedo grew up immersed in the Latin music so prevalent on the East coast of the US. Influences of Mambo and Salsa bred their love of percussion and they organised mambo sessions to hone their vocal and percussive skills surrounded by local musicians who played in the Caribbean style that captivated their musical passion.
Sometimes numbering up to 25 members on stage, AZTECA fused an array of musical styles and instruments ranging from horns, woodwinds, guitars, drums and multiple keyboards, percussionists and vocalists.
AZTECA featured a wealth of successful musicians including bassist Paul Jackson, known for his work on numerous Herbie Hancock albums, drummer Lenny White who played alongside some of the best Jazz artists of the time including Miles Davis, Freddie Hubbard and Stanley Clarke. The line up also included Grammy Award Nominee, Tom Harrell. AZTECA would also serve as a platform for Sheila E, daughter of Pete Escovedo, to develop her skills as a percussionist.
BBR is very proud to bring you PYRAMID OF THE MOON, originally released on Columbia Records in 1973, completely re-mastered and repackaged complete with extensive liner notes and extended bonus content.
PYRAMID OF THE MOON is a must have for all Jazz, Latin, Funk & Rock fans out there!

Since they changed the casing, is it a album cover replica ? Or is it your regular plastic case. In that picture, it looks like a cardboard cover. | |||
