Review: Celebrating the 50th anniversary of If You Love Me, Let Me Know, Olivia Newton-John's third North American album, this stunning picture disc vinyl pays homage to the iconic cover and features a limited-edition numbered sticker unique to each copy. Originally released in 1974, this beloved collection has tracks from her earlier international albums and marks her first Billboard 200 chart-topping success. The album includes standout hits like 'I Honestly Love You', 'Let Me Be There' and the title track, 'If You Love Me, Let Me Know'. With production from John Farrar and contributions from Bruce Welch, the album maintains a polished sound. Songs like the introspective 'Changes' and the captivating rendition of Brian Wilson's 'God Only Knows' add depth, while 'You Ain't Got the Right' offers a catchy country-pop vibe that highlights Newton-John's vocal prowess. Ultimately, If You Love Me, Let Me Know is a testament to Olivia's ability to bridge country and pop, making it a significant entry in her discography. Its mix of heartfelt ballads and lively tracks ensures it remains a timeless favourite.

Review: It Takes A Thief is the 2010 compilation from the electronic duo Thievery Corporation. Now reissued via Primary Wave, the album comes back again as a sore reminder of a rock-solidly wicked set of tracks, a collection specially selected by the dream team of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton for both longtime fans, and for music lovers who'd heard of Thievery Corporation but may have never listened to the band. It Takes a Thief features 'Lebanese Blonde,' the beautiful track notably used in the soundtrack to the controversial Zach Braff film Garden State, as well as 'Sound the Alarm', the funk-infused track that has since become a staple opening track for the band's live shows. Now released on vinyl for the first time, we're more than pumped to help get this one back in circulation.
