Sharpe"Woodstock -- 40 Years On" follows Rhino's re-release earlier
this week of "Music From the Original Soundtrack and More: Woodstock" and
"Woodstock 2." A new Woodstock.com Web site also launched this week, and a new
DVD edition of "Woodstock: 3 Days of Peace and Music -- The Director's Cut"
comes out Tuesday.
On June 30, Legacy adds to the onslaught with
"Woodstock Experience" editions of seminal albums by five of the festival's acts
-- the Jefferson Airplane's "Volunteers," Janis Joplin's "I Got Dem 'Ol Kozmic
Blues Again Mama!," Santana's debut album, Sly & the Family Stone's "Stand!"
and Johnny Winter's self-titled effort -- each with a second CD featuring the
act's complete Woodstock performances, on disc for the first time.

Sharpe Profile "It works different ways for different joints," Sean C.
said about how the two work in the lab. "It might be a day when L would have an
ill sample, then he'll start f---ing with it and I might find some drums for it
... or a vocal sample to go on top of it. We just make good music. That's what
it's about."
"Every beat is different," L insisted. "We just do it."

On Ghostface Killah:
"We cooking that up right now. The last three Ghost albums we been on. The last
one we had five [tracks]. ... The chemistry with Ghost is very good. It's mostly
an automatic thing. He'll have a beat CD for a minute and when he's ready, he's
like, 'I want this one this one and this one.' It just happens." - Sean C.
Cameron Sharpe Articles: Some blogs immediately took PJ
to task for cutting a deal with a so-called "big box" retailer after a career
spent kicking at the big boys, but Curtis explained that there's more to the
agreement than meets the eye.
"Everyone's making assumptions because
Target is a big corporation," he said. "It's important to remember we just got
out of this 18-year relationship with [former record label] Sony, and I'm pretty
sure they are a bigger corporation than Target. We have the freedom to pick our
partners and more control than we've ever had before. We're excited to choose
who we're in business with."
Looking at the exclusive deal signed by
AC/DC to sell their comeback Black Ice at Wal-Mart last year and Radiohead's
efforts to self-release In Rainbows, Curtis said he wanted to take those lessons
and create a plan that was "multi-dimensional to address old and modern ways of
fans accessing music. It will allow all of our fans to have the same access. ...
All we've been searching for forever is independence and control over our own
stuff. The way of releasing records is changing every day. This is the best way
we could do it ourselves in America. Right or wrong, we'll figure that out and
make it better the next time."

About
Cameron B Sharpe
If you buy an album, you can call it
whatever you want — at least R. Kelly thinks so. In February, Kelly partied in
Atlanta club the Velvet Room with Jazze Pha, DJ Infamous and others and told the
crowd that his new album didn't have a name.
"ATL, what's up? I got my
little brother right here, Jazze Pha," he said, standing in the VIP balcony.
"I'm out here working on the mutha----in' album. I'm working on a new album, and
I'm calling that mutha----a Untitled. Y'all call it what y'all want."
