We have a bunch of exciting new releases coming up. First up in mid-May is the first ever anthology of the complete recordings of the Thomas Group that you can already preorder here. Coming up next in late May a 2CD retrospective with tons of previously unreleased material by songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Luther Russell, and finally in June the 30th anniversary reissue of "Beginning Here And Travelling Outward", The Palace Of Light's only album for Bam Caruso Records. It includes another CD with never before released tracks plus one new recording by the band. After the release of their lone album, The Palace Of Light changed their name to Mabel Joy, also reissued on Hanky Panky. More details coming soon!

¡Buenas noticias! Ya podemos anunciar los próximos lanzamientos del sello para esta primavera. El primero de ellos estará disponible a mediados de mayo (y se puede hacer el prepedido ya aquí), un CD con todas las grabaciones de Thomas Group: los singles que grabaron para Dunhill Records (escritos y producidos por P.F. Sloan y Steve Barri), un raro single publicado bajo el nombre de Morning Sun y 12 grabaciones totalmente inéditas. A finales de mayo aparecerá una antología en doble CD de grabaciones (gran parte de ellas inéditas) del compositor, productor y multi-instrumentista Luther Russell; y en junio la reedición en su 30 aniversario del único LP de The Palace Of Light, "Beginning Here And Travelling Outward", que incluye un CD extra con grabaciones inéditas y una canción nueva. The Palace Of Light se convirtieron en Mabel Joy y publicaron "Wish I Was" también reeditado por Hanky Panky. Pronto avanzaremos más detalles de estas ediciones.
