VARULVEN NEWS Marty Balin is in town next week. We are beginning a brand new album on either June 25 or June 26th. He was supposed to open for Johnny Rivers this Saturday but has to appear with Jefferson Starship in New York so the LOVING SPOONFUL will be with Rivers Saturday night instead. The legendary David Maxwell (Freddy King's keyboard player) will be coming to the Marty sessions! John Till (Janis Joplin's guitarist) can't make it this time around.
Join Marty Balin's MYSPACE
We have an international deal for Marty's new DVD. The "unplugged" version of the album will be available for FREE download to everyone who buys the DVD.
We hope to see Bobby Hebb back in Boston singing and playing to promote his new album THAT'S ALL I WANNA KNOW. We're working closely with his record label in America, of course.
Varulven Records will be adding LOTS of new CDs to EMusic.com in the coming months. Tontileo is busy working on the cover of our new Unnatural Axe download - Live At Mission Control August 14, 1988. This is a professionally recorded set of songs the boys recorded with us when I was managing the New Kids On The Block studio (and Jimmy Miller at the same time; you try doing both and surviving to tell about it!) We have four songs on the multitrack (24) recorded on an SSL Board. This is the live DAT - live to 2 track with all the instruments going through the SSL and perhaps New Kids engineer Hideki Sunada at the controls (unless it was Joe Cuneo, I have to check the tracklist and tapebox). I sent out rare photos of Unnatural Axe 1978 to Richie, Tommy, Tontileo, Gary Soprano, Liz Ireland, some of the people involved with our original UNNATURAL AXE session from 10 years before the Mission Control event. These photos were found during the recovery mission after the flood...they were among the last items found as we were cleaning out the old room...and it was a BIG old vault...
Due to the enormous move of about 4-5 tons of material (8 miles from the old Woburn facility to our new space in Medford) I'm Waaay behind on my writing assignments - subsequently tons of mail and normal day-to-day record label work has not gotten done! But we are up to date on all our ebay sales and have just hit 650 Positives with a 100% rating (601 distinct sellers/buyers) as of this week. I got a vicious/wicked cold this past weekend, it knocked me out for about 36 hours - no work got done after I moved materials on Saturday till I came out of my coma on Sunday night. It was surreal - kind of like being in the movie THE SIXTH SENSE (which I was watching). My gardner said that the mold from the old facility probably made me ill...it is plausible. In any event, we have a beautiful new facility with tons of shelving (and we can always use more, so if you know companies that have shelving they want to get rid of, let us know - we have SO MUCH material accumulated, master tapes, cassette tapes, Billboard Magazines going back to 1970 - and today we found the very first Joe Vig published music reviews from Arlington High School's newspaper when Capitol Records sent us discs to yap about. This goes back to 1971...
they are being xeroxed tomorrow!...maybe you'll find it in your mailbox

VARULVEN EMPIRE MOVES INTO NEW OFFICE!
Yes, we're in the middle of moving tons of master tapes, magazines, filing cabinets and intellectual property into our wonderful new office. It's a lot of work! Thanks to all the friends that offered to help truck stuff over, but I've made it a two month project to kind of put everything the way I want it. It's an enormous task, 30 years of accumulated media. Cassettes, DATS, Mini Discs, 2" 24 track reel to reels, half track, quarter track, CDs, DVDs, VHS, 3/4" - so many formats the mind reels...er...spins!
