On February 24, KID ROCK is back with his first release for Warner Bros. Records when FIRST KISS hits the streets. This week, the video for the title track arrived - a nostalgic tune that's getting a lot of comparisons to Bryan Adams' "Summer of '69" (especially that opening riff), and one that's got a lot of crossover appeal, but a real warm weather vibe to help with these cold months we're in. Check it out below, right here on THE ROCK FATHER...

While the details are slim, FROZEN's IDINA MENZEL herself broke the news yesterday that she'll be releasing a new album next month, when HOLIDAY WISHES hits the streets. Set for release on October 14th via Warner Bros. Records, pre-orders have already popped-up on Amazon for what will undoubtedly be the year's top new Holiday album for 2014. Even in an era where album sales are down, there's always that one big record for the season, and this looks to be it. Check out the cover art below, and look for the tracklisting soon...

After getting a digital release earlier this year (available on Amazon MP3 or iTunes), BLACK SABBATH: THE COMPLETE STUDIO ALBUMS 1970-1978 will get a physical release as a box set on April 15 via Rhino (pre-order: Amazon). After forming in 1969, Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Terry “Geezer” Butler, and Bill Ward went on to release eight albums with their original lineup, and this clamshell box set collects all of the albums that they recorded for Warner Bros. Records during the 1970’s, including the iconic, eponymous debut (1970), the multi-platinum landmark Paranoid (1970), the platinum albums Master Of Reality (1971), Vol. 4 (1972), and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (1973),as well as the gold albums Sabotage (1975), Technical Ecstasy (1976), and Never Say Die! (1978).

It's ABRAHAM LINCOLN, GOD, the TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES, ROBIN HOOD, THE STATUE OF LIBERTY, a GHOST, and HAN SOLO, coming together for one very special adventure. Yes, Warner Bros. built The LEGO Movie, and the first full-length trailer has arrived. Check it out below...

On October 22, Warner Bros Records will revisit VAN MORRISON's classic album, MOONDANCE, with the release of three new physical configurations and an iTunes Deluxe Edition.  The pinnacle of the reissue is the newly remastered and expanded version featuring 50 unreleased tracks including studio outtakes of favorites like “Caravan, “Moondance” and “Into The Mystic,” plus multiple takes and a final mix of the unheard track “I Shall Sing”.

As "The Rock Father," one of my greatest joys is introducing my daughters to new sonic landscapes through some "Musical History Lessons" taught here at Rock Father HQ. No history of rock would be complete without sharing with them the music of THE DOORS, and one recent tool to hit the market is THE DOORS App for iPad by Warner Music Group's Rhino Entertainment (if only we had an iPad). This extensively in-depth look at the band and their legacy is available now in the App store for just $4.99, and to celebrate it's release, Rhino and The Rock Father are getting two lucky readers hooked-up with a three-pack of CDs from THE DOORS! Live at the Matrix 1967, Live in Pittsburgh 1970 & the When You’re Strange Soundtrack are all included.
