Real Gone Music is a U.S. reissue label that was established in 2011 by two individuals who previously founded other successful labels. With a focus on reissuing music from various genres, Real Gone Music aims to bring back classic and hard-to-find albums for music enthusiasts. They have gained a reputation for their high-quality releases and attention to detail, ensuring that the original branded label is included if shown on the release. Please note that there is an unofficial entity pretending to be Real Gone Music, so be sure to look out for the authentic label when making your purchases. Also, it's important not to confuse Real Gone Music with the UK/Europe based budget reissue label that issues multi-disc box sets in different genres and series.

It’s hard to remember an album that made a bigger critical splash than The Roches. John Rockwell of The New York Times labeled it “the best pop record of 1979,” Jay Cocks in Time called their music “startling, lacerating, and amusing,” Trouser Press gave it 10/10, Rolling Stone Record Guide gave it 5 stars, and so on. But all of the plaudits don’t really do the album justice…because this record has more personality pressed into every groove than any other ten you could name. It’s not ostensibly a feminist record; the unabashed joy of creation coming from these three sisters transcends all questions of gender and ideology. But it is one of the boldest and most personal albums ever made. And it’s got Robert Fripp on guitar and Tony Levin on bass! Put simply, there ain’t no album like The Roches’ 1979 debut, and for its 45th anniversary (and first U.S. LP reissue in over 25 years), Real Gone Music are pressing it in ruby red vinyl. Exclusive for Record Store Day!
