Music GroupsOldies Rule
Following the footsteps of Rod Stewart and Barry Manilow, Michael Bolton will release an album of oldies covers (subscription required) through -- no, not J Records -- Passion Music/Concord Records. The album will be called Bolton Swings Sinatra so that means it will be a collection of Frank Sinatra songs.
Stewart's series of American standards and Manilows recent oldies collection have all been chart toppers. Their success left entry into this market inevitable. And Concord, with its relationship with Starbucks' Hear Music, seems like the perfect place to sell this music.
"What's next?" begs Hits, "Benny Mardones croons Dean Martin?"
