Release Round-Up: Week of April 10

April 10, 2012 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

Howard Jones, One to One / Cross That Line / In the Running: Remastered Edition (Dtox)

HoJo's last set of remasters is a five disc set featuring his last three Warner-era albums from 1986 to 1992, plus two generous discs of B-sides and remixes. Parts of this era are really underrated, and if this box is as loving as the last one was, it may well earn your everlasting love.

Various Artists, Philadelphia International Classics: The Tom Moulton Mixes (Harmless)

This gorgeous four-disc set, coming from the U.K., features some of PIR's greatest hits and deepest cuts, all mixed (or newly remixed) by disco master Tom Moulton. There's a whole hard-to-find vintage remix album in here, along with some other great 12" single masters.

World Party, Arkaeology (Seaview/Fontana)

Five discs of unreleased goodies from Karl Wallinger's famed band, plus diary packaging for you to create with. (Sorry, U.K. fans, we're actually getting this one first; the international release date is later.)

Kraftwerk, The Catalogue (MoMA Edition) (Kling Klang/Astralwerks)

The electronic icons first put their last eight remastered albums into a box in 2009. Now, to coincide with a weeklong residency at New York's Museum of Modern Art, they're reissuing that box through the MoMA exclusively, with new artwork.

Gilbert O'Sullivan, I'm a Writer Not a Fighter: Deluxe Edition (Salvo)

Released in the U.K. last week, Gilbert's third album comes expanded with four additional tracks from single sides and includes the hit "Get Down."

Bette Midler, Live at Last (Friday Music)

The Divine Miss M's first live album (and a double, at that!) gets the red-carpet remaster treatment from Friday Music.

Madness, Forever Young: The Ska Collection (Salvo)

A compilation for everyone who might already know "Our House," with a small helping of unreleased material for hardcore fans.

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.
