ICYMI: November 1, 2013

New this week on Popshifter: Chelsea thinks Rene Lopez is headed for Broadway on his latest EP; Melissa raves about two new Patti Page collections from Real Gone Music, is flabbergasted by Jace Everett’s brilliance, gets nostalgic for Thelonious Monster in a new doc about Bob Forrest, and finds an overabundance of easy listening on a Perry Como album produced by Chet Atkins; Paul appreciates the insight into Jimmy Jam’s early musical career that 1514 Oliver Avenue (Basement) provides; Jeff embraces android love in his Waxing Nostalgic installment on Pat Benatar, and comes up with two Top Five lists for Halloween: scary soundtracks and revolting robots; Brad Henderson reviews Scream Factory’s release of The Amityville Horror Trilogy on Blu-Ray and recommends The Pack and Razorback as a double feature from Warner Archive; J Howell is touched by Gary Lucas’s new book about working with Jeff Buckley, Touched By Grace; and get all film geeky over John Carpenter because of Anchor Bay’s new 35th Anniversary Blu-Ray of Halloween.
