		Rykodisc, an independent US company specializing in high quality CD releases, had been willing to re-release Bowie's albums at full price if they could also include bonus tracks of rare or previously unreleased material.

		Rykodisc's presence gave other local labels something to aspire to; some of the musicians in town knew they had somewhere to go.
		Rykodisc was founded as the world's first CD-only label (though it wound up doing cassettes and a small amount of vinyl) -- but in the end, that may have been the least of its accomplishments.
		And during the mid '80s, Rykodisc guessed right that neo-Deadhead rock was the next big thing but wrong on the band: at a time when Phish were gunning for a record deal, the label instead went with New Potato Caboose.

		Rykodisc said some 175 songs from dozens of artists -- including Frank Zappa, Bruce Cockburn, and Richard Thompson -- were now available at a cost of 99 cents per track, and "more tracks will be released in the coming months."

		Rykodisc said its decision to sell with the format represented a simple recognition of reality: MP3 is here, it's being used, and to ignore it would only lead to more music pirating.

		Soundtrack fans have been hearing about this for a couple of months, and now the deal is closed between MGM and the Massachusetts-based record label Rykodisc to reissue soundtracks from the United Artists film and record catalogs.

		A short instrumental featuring dozens of musicians playing sumptuous melodies, this perfect fusion of rock and 'classical' forms might just be the most authentically radical record I own.
		The vocals sounds as much sixties as they sound punk-ish, a nasal enthusiastic whine that is just bound to put u in a good mood.
		Guess u can call this a love-song, it manages to be pretty sad and still come through as pretty light-hearted.
