Robbie Basho, Selections from Song of the Avatars: The Lost Master Tapes [LP, 1000 copies] (Tompkins Square)

Robbie Basho (1940-1986) is widely regarded as one of the progenitors of what's commonly known today as American Primitive guitar. Growing up in Maryland alongside neo-traditional guitar explorers John Fahey and Max Ochs, Basho's path would take a decidedly different turn, bringing Hindi, Indian, Japanese and Native American musical traditions into his work. His albums for Takoma and Vanguard have left an indelible trail of influence across generations of musicians, from William Ackerman and Pete Townshend to Ben Chasny and William Tyler. Now, a large cache of unheard Basho tapes recorded throughout his career, ranging roughly from 1965-1985 has been found. By arrangement with Basho's estate and the original custodians of the tapes, Tompkins Square is set to release Song of the Avatars: The Lost Master Tapes, a 5CD set of previously unreleased material. The label will release a single disc vinyl LP first - exclusively for RSD. The set includes notes by Barker, Henry Kaiser, Steffen Basho-Junghans, Glenn Jones and Richard Osborn, as well as many unseen photographs.

Contains covers of "Black Hole Sun" and "Searching With My Good Eye Closed." Side B will contain an etching.

Suzanne Ciani, A Life in Waves [clear LP, 1000 copies] (Earth Libraries)

If you watched television, went to the movies, or listened to radio in the '80s and '90s, you probably heard Suzanne Ciani's work whether you knew it or not. Suzanne is a five-time Grammy award nominated composer, electronic music pioneer, and neo-classical recording artist whose work has been featured in countless commercials, video games, and feature films. A Life In Waves explores Suzanne's life and innovations through her own eyes, offering a feminine glimpse into the world of electronic music.

With other 15 albums spanning 40 plus years, countless commercial scores and sound designs, Suzanne's catalog is among the most rich and varied of any artist working today. With selections ranging from Suzanne's early modular experimentations, to her commercial sound design, to her romantic synthesizer works, to her delicate piano compositions, this soundtrack is the only collection of its kind. Like the film, it's a journey into Suzanne's mind, and a career-spanning exploration of this genre-defying artist.

Feminine Complex, The Livin' Love [pink 2LP or CD, 1400 copies each] (Modern Harmonic)

Nashville, 1966: five young girls teach themselves their instruments playing along to the radio. Initially named The Pivots and by the end of '67 christened as The Feminine Complex, they were playing out and developing a local following including radio and television appearances. They created their own versions of popular songs, a style that reflected their need to express their own experience of girlhood. Gender bending 'boys' songs' they simply changed the lyrics, modifying the major characters and pronouns creating a space for themselves inside the music where they were able to become the agents of their own wishes, needs and desires. Come '68, they appeared on NBC's nationally syndicated Showcase '68, hosted by Lloyd Thaxton paving way to their cult status.

It is not allegorical to say that in some way, they widened the entrance to the historical vacuum that a generation later would come to be filled by Riot Grrrl and rock 'n' roll camps for girls. The Feminine Complex were not just a good band because they were girls, or because they were the first girls. They are a good band because they are. Lucky for us, we have these recordings, so we can continue to hear why.  Modern Harmonic's reissue features the original '69 album plus 11 originally unissued tracks, available as a 2LP set on pink vinyl or on CD.

This 5LP set salutes one of the most legendary figures in American music, beloved Grateful Dead guitarist, vocalist and eternal goodwill ambassador, Jerry Garcia.

Jimmy Giuffre 3 & 4, The 3 & 4: New York Concerts [2LP, 1500 copies] (Anagram/Elemental)

The release of the two remarkable 1965 New York Concerts performances offer a rare and revelatory glimpse into that discographical dark period. This captivating double LP set would be valuable solely for the brilliant music, which finds Giuffre leading otherwise undocumented trio and quartet line-ups that advance his experiments in counterpoint and abstraction from the chamber-like Free Fall into even more adventurous avant-garde territory. But it also offers much-needed insight into one of jazz's most innovative thinkers at a key moment in his development. 180-gram vinyl.

Ellie Goulding, Lights 10 [2LP, 4120 copies] (IGA/UMe)

Screamin' Jay Hawkins, ...What That Is! [orange LP] and Because Is In Your Mind [white/blue LP] (Third Man Records)

Jalacy J. Hawkins, better known as Screamin' Jay Hawkins, was born on July 18, 1929 in Cleveland, Ohio. As a young man, he played piano, boxed in local championships and learned opera at the Ohio Conservatory of Music. Although initially pursuing opera after returning from serving in World War II, Hawkins eventually sharpened his focus on the darker side of R&B and jazz, using macabre stage props, absolute wildman persona and expert voice imitating the blare and squeal of saxophones. His most notable chart-topper was the boozy, raucous 1956 hit ''I Put a Spell On You,'' which was banned by many radio stations for its suggestive groans and grunts. All things considered, Screamin' Jay Hawkins is considered one of the earliest pioneers of what would become shock rock.

Recorded in 1969, years following his big hits, Screamin' Jay Hawkins' third album ...What That Is! showcases Hawkins in one of his most rowdy and compelling stages of his artistic career. With a killer backing band featuring the great Earl Palmer on drums for most of the cuts and Herb Ellis guesting on a few. We find Jay singing about life, love and loss as well as feasting Mau Maus and pain, REAL PAIN. What That Is! will be pressed on 180-gram Fluorescent Orange colored vinyl exclusive to RSD inside a direct-to-board LP jacket.

Hawkins' fourth album, Because Is In Your Mind - recorded in 1970 - finds the artist at a point of transition. Although Jay had found commercial success and his sales surpassed one million units, he had grown somewhat weary of his shock/voodoo/bogeyman persona and wanted to be taken more seriously as a singer. Luckily for us, Jay only tones down the yelling and the crooning and the grunting and the groaning marginally. The tracks here are every bit as wild as you would hope and a bit more mature (note: a very little bit). Because Is In Your Mind, also known as Armpitrubber, is packaged in a wonderfully psychedelic painting by Karl Wirsom of the hugely influential Chicago art collective The Hairy Who.  The album is pressed on 180-gram opaque white/blue Mixed colored vinyl exclusive to RSD presented in a direct-to-board LP jacket.

Jimi Hendrix, Message To Love / Changes [red/yellow 7", 10000 copies] (Capitol/UMe)

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Jimi Hendrix's Band of Gypsys final album, this 7" is the first official U.S. single. With new artwork by Experience Hendrix. Pressed on red and yellow splattered vinyl.

Paul McCartney, McCartney (50th Anniversary Half-Speed Mastered) [LP, 7000] (UMe/MPL/Capitol)

One of the greatest solo debuts in rock history, Paul McCartney's McCartney, will receive a special 50th anniversary release in a limited-edition half-speed mastered vinyl pressing for Record Store Day. Originally released in April 1970, one month before The Beatles' swansong Let It Be, McCartney saw Paul getting back to basics. Writing every song and playing every instrument (with backing vocals from Linda McCartney), the eponymous album represented a creative rebirth, bursting with new ideas, experiments, playfulness and freedom.

Sonically, McCartney's bare-bones home recording aesthetic imbued the album with an authentic lo-fi spirit, a much sought after sound that continues to retain a contemporary edge 50 years on. The 50th anniversary Record Store Day limited edition of McCartney was pressed from a master cut by Miles Showell at half speed using the original 1970 master tapes at Abbey Road Studios. It was made as a vinyl specific transfer in high resolution and without digital peak limiting for the best possible reproduction.

Melanie, 1974 At Drury Lane: Melanie With the Incredible String Band [LP, 1000 copies] (Burnside)

In London's West End, on a warm summer evening in June 1974, Melanie invited Mike Heron and Robin Williamson of the Incredible String Band to help her deliver a performance like none other. They were, in her words, spoken during the concert, "my very, very favorite band." This is an unforgettable night of music that will touch enthusiasts of every genre. The original reels were saved from decay in 2019 and now, restored and mixed for the first time, the music and magic from that night are a must for every record collection.

Charles Mingus, Mingus Ah Um: Redux [2LP, 2000 copies] (Get On Down)

There is not a weak moment on this album and many outstanding ones. Sure to appeal to the rabid Wilco fan base the CD which accompanied the magazine sold out quickly and is no longer available.
