JEM Records Celebrates
Rock Icons (Series)
(Various Artists)
A series of releases featuring multi-artist tributes to the icons
of rock! The first was JEM Records Celebrates John
Lennon, released in honor his 80th Birthday (October 9th,
2020). It provides music lovers with an inventive take on the
work of John Lennon, ranging from his early Beatles days
through his final recordings in 1980. The second in the series
is JEM Records Celebrates Brian Wilson, which “delivers a
solid rocking swag of well-crafted interpretations of Brian’s
music heavily dripping with the 60s influenced jangly guitar
and garage rock vibe, representative of JEM’s
‘sound’.” (Endless Summer Quarterly). The latest is JEM
Records Celebrates Pete Townshend, a veritable “Who’s
Who” of JEM artists providing ‘Meaty, Beaty, Big and Bouncy’
interpretations of classic Who cuts.
