ALLIGATOR RECORDS RELEASES NINE DIGITAL-ONLY BEST-OF COLLECTIONS TO GLOBAL RADIO EXCLUSIVELY VIA AIRPLAY DIRECT

Posted on January 19, 2015

 

Alligator Records releases nine new digital-only "Best-Of" collections from some of the label's top artists over the course of its 44-year history to radio exclusively via AirPlay Direct. Alligator Records founder and president Bruce Iglauer personally remastered the sets from blues stars  Koko Taylor, Hound Dog Taylor, James Cotton, Lil’ Ed And The Blues Imperials, Tinsley Ellis, Coco Montoyo, Roomful Of Blues, Eric Lindell and Lonnie Mack.

“It was a very enjoyable but tough job choosing which tracks constitute the ‘best’ of these great artists. We chose their biggest radio songs and most-requested fan favorites, but also included some tracks that we consider unrecognized gems among their recordings. New fans will find these a great introduction to these artists, and established fans will find tracks they may be unaware of. I think the remastering brings out more details of the music and makes the listener appreciate the quality of these performances even more.”  Bruce Iglauer, Founder/President - Alligator Records

“What a great way to start 2015 with such classic blues artists and their remastered “Best Of” digital only collections. AirPlay Direct is excited to partner with Alligator Records in bringing these great catalog releases to our radio members worldwide.”  Michael Harnett, President - AirPlay Direct
