Release Round-Up: Week of June 14

June 14, 2011 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

Paul McCartney, McCartney: Deluxe Edition / McCartney II: Deluxe Edition (MPL/Concord)

The next entries in the Paul McCartney Archive Collection, Macca's first two purely solo LPs, originally released in 1970 and 1980. You've got your choice of formats: regular remasters, double-disc deluxe editions packed with extra content, vinyl sets or super-deluxe editions in hardback book cases (McCartney's deluxe edition adds a DVD while McCartney II adds another CD and a DVD). (Official site)

The Beatles, Anthology (Digital) (Apple/EMI)

Speaking of Beatles, iTunes now has all three volumes of Anthology available to download. They're remastered, which of course doesn't make any sense for a service like iTunes, which deals exclusively in low-res sound files. (iTunes)

ABBA, Super Trouper: Deluxe Edition (Polydor/UMe)

Another ABBA 30th anniversary edition, pairing the original album and bonus tracks with a DVD of new and old video content. (Official site)

Smokey Robinson, The Solo Albums: Volume 5 - Smokin' (Hip-o Select/Motown)

Smokey's 1978 live album, remastered and expanded with two bonus tracks. (Hip-o Select)

Neil Young and The International Harvesters, A Treasure (Reprise)

More live stuff from the archives, in this case an unreleased album from a 1984-1985 world tour available on CD or vinyl. (Official site)

Sebadoh, Bakesale: Deluxe Edition (Sub Pop)

The Massachusetts indie outfit's 1994 album is expanded with a bonus disc of demos, B-sides and the like. (Official site)

Various Artists, Carousel: Studio Cast Recording (Masterworks/Arkiv)

A reissue of the 1955 studio cast recording of Rodgers and Hammerstein's 1945 musical, the most complete version of the music at the time. (Arkiv)

Mike Duquette

Mike Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he was a teenager. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.
