Dave Matthews Band, Remember Two Things: Expanded Edition (Bama Rags/RCA/Legacy)
The DMB's 1993 mostly-live, self-released debut netted them enough exposure for a major-label deal some 20 years, six consecutive No. 1 studio albums and countless tours ago. Now, it's back on CD with unreleased photos and two unheard studio bonus tracks; plus, for the first time, it's being released on vinyl (with the bonus tracks available as a download).
