Thomas Newman, Saving Mr. Banks: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Walt Disney Records)
The deluxe version of this new release - from a new Disney film telling the tale of how Walt Disney (Tom Hanks) brought P.L. Travers (Emma Thompson)'s classic children's novels to the screen - contains never-before-released "pre-demos" from the original 1964 film! (In the U.K., those demos are available on a new double-disc reissue of the original Mary Poppins soundtrack.)
Various Artists, The Complete Motown Singles Volume 12B: 1972 (Hip-O Select/Motown)
The final volume in the long-running box set series features five discs of soul-pop classics from the back end of 1972. (Amazon U.S. / Amazon U.K.)
Various Artists, Verve - The Sound of America: The Singles Collection (Verve/UMe)
A new five-disc anthology from one of America's most notable jazz labels. (Amazon U.S. / Amazon U.K.)
Thanks for the link to the UK's double disc issue of the Mary Poppins soundtrack with demo tracks. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it is a much better, more complete release, I think, than the US's. For example, it uniquely includes 16+ minutes of "The Sherman Brothers Reminisce About Their Work On Mary Poppins."
