The Weekend Stream: August 21, 2021

August 21, 2021 By Mike Duquette 2 Comments

While The Second Disc prides itself on connecting people to reissues and box sets they can keep on their shelves, it's no secret that listening audiences are also digital - catalogue music lovers, too - and our passion is connecting people to music from the past that they might adore. So we've introduced a new feature: The Weekend Stream, which focuses on hidden gems that recently made it to digital channels that might make your playlists a little brighter!

Aaliyah, One in a Million (Blackground/EMPIRE) (iTunes / Amazon / Spotify)

Well, it's happening! As we reported earlier this month, Blackground Records has, against all odds and after years of fan wishes, begun rolling out its catalogue for physical and digital consumption - starting with the late Aaliyah's sophomore album. (It's got a bonus track: Timbaland's Groove Mix of the track "Hot Like Fire.")

Lamb of God, Sacrament (15th Anniversary Edition) (Epic/Legacy) (iTunes / Amazon / Spotify)

A new digital-only reissue of the band's fourth album - their first Top 10 and the first of five Grammy nominees in the metal category. It now includes three live bonus tracks from the band's sole concert of 2020.

Jerry Goldsmith, The Omen (Deluxe Edition) / Michael Giacchino, Star Trek / Star Trek Into Darkness / Star Trek Beyond (Deluxe Editions) (Varese Sarabande)

An exciting thing for film score enthusiasts is Varese Sarabande's increasing commitment to offering digital downloads on some of their limited edition catalogue titles - particularly in high-resolution WAV or FLAC files. Their most recent titles include Jerry Goldsmith's legendary score to the horror classic The Omen and Michael Giacchino's modern takes on the Star Trek reboot film trilogy. Check out even more at the link above!

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.
