Reggae torchbearer Ziggy Marley is set to release a new live album, Ziggy Marley in Concert, exclusively on iTunes on December 18th, with a worldwide and physical release slated for January 15th. Recorded throughout Ziggy's 2012 Wild and Free Tour, the disc includes a wide range of cuts from Marley's solo albums, as well as covers of two Bob Marley classics, "War" and "Is This Love." Now you can get a taste of the record with this exclusive track, "Beach in Hawaii," a quick-stepping song with sun-soaked guitars that mask a heartsick loneliness.

“Tonight's the Night”

The Shirelles | 1960

The lead cut and title track from this girl group's debut album, "Tonight's the Night" was written by 19-year-old bandmember Shirley Owens, who sings lead, and producer Luther Dixon. The band from Passaic, New Jersey met in high school, first calling themselves the Pequellos. The song's frank thoughts about sexual and emotional surrender was racy for the time, but that didn't stop the Chiffons from cutting a similar version immediately after the original came out. "We were the first female group to write some of our own material," band member Beverly Lee recalls. "We did have some say-so in our writing."
