Tomorrow, Record Store Day is once again upon us! It's that time of year where music lovers and vinyl flippers get together at their favorite physical music retailers and wait in line to snag some treasured albums - almost all of which are pressed on vinyl instead of CD (or, you know, sold on secondary marketplaces for above their retail value).  This year, the list tops out at over 300 titles, so there's very nearly something for everybody.  It wasn't easy to narrow our choices down to around 20 titles, but here you are!

It's certainly easy to be cynical about this stuff, but the crux of the RSD idea still lives: find some music that moves you, something from an old favorite you've maybe never heard before, and let the joy of discovery fill you up - even as you support a cherished independent record store. Plus - have you seen the numbers on vinyl? You may not understand paying $25 for a record that you can get on CD for half that, but your neighbors might not, if sales figures are any indication. And, to be completely honest, there are many truly great titles on RSD's 2025 list (and quite a few that will be released on CD, too)!

Visit RecordStoreDay.com in the U.S., RecordStoreDay.co.uk in the U.K., and RecordStoreDayCanada.ca in Canada for the complete list of participating stores, and please sound off below as to which titles you're most anticipating!  Without further ado, Mike, Joe, and Randy have a handful of the titles upon which they'd stake their reputation as catalogue connoisseurs. Whatever you have on your shopping list for Saturday, may your lines be short and your delight be deep!  Enjoy!

First up is Mike with his selections!

I suppose it's not that surprising that a Record Store Day with enough titles that we did nearly 10 specific round-ups on it would have releases that even I - a person who really doesn't collect or listen to vinyl and yearns for more RSD exclusives to get an eventual CD or digital release - would like to check out. (Just click on the "Record Store Day" tag to access all of those articles!)  There's four brand-new, archival-oriented titles worth spotlighting, and another five or so on my list that you can hear elsewhere but bear my personal stamp of approval, if that means anything to you. Happy hunting!

Neil Finn, Sessions At West 54th (Legacy)

PBS' Sessions At West 54th was one of the finest live music programs of its generation, which is cause celebre enough to see any set from the series get a release. (Shout out to our pals at Real Gone Music for getting Ben Folds Five's performance on CD!) But I'm especially going to bang the drum in support of Neil Finn, one of my favorite living singer-songwriters, getting his due with a vinyl release of the set. (It was an honor to interview Finn in 2016 for Crowded House's reissue campaign - and worth noting that another favorite songwriter of mine has chatted with TSD for a future feature.) In the wake of Crowded House's onetime split and the terrific Try Whistling This (featuring "She Will Have Her Way," one of Neil's best tunes bar none), Finn was in rare form, and Sessions captures him at his very best.

Elton John, Live from the Rainbow Theatre with Ray Cooper (Rocket/EMI/UMR)

While I am troubled by the distinct possibility that this live disc will join recent vinyl expansions of 17-11-70, Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player and Caribou as never being available in any other format, I applaud Elton's team for assembling a really neat collection of rarely-played songs from a run of shows in 1977. (Only "Border Song" the likeliest of the dozen songs on the album to show up in recent set lists.) Let's hope for a CD release sometime soon - and perhaps digital versions of the others.

Sting, Sting 3.0 Live Deluxe (Cherrytree/Interscope/A&M)

Was it more than a little surprising to see Sting go back to the formula that made The Police such a winning combo nearly 50 years later? Has time weathered his beautiful keening voice into a jazzy rasp? Is it deeply annoying that this month's general CD and vinyl release features only half of this double album? Were these set lists a dynamic mix of familiar hits and lesser played cuts? The answer to all these questions is yes, and thus, so is the answer to "do I want to check this out?"

John Lennon & Yoko Ono/Plastic Ono Band with Elephant's Memory & Special Guests, Power to the People - Live At The One to One Concert, New York City, 1972 (Apple/UMR)

My excitement to hear this EP - taken from Lennon's only full-length solo concerts after The Beatles broke up - is really more about someone I'm excited for to hear this. My father-in-law - a die-hard Beatles collector who I think really appreciates our shared mutual interest in catalogue affairs for The Fab Four (second in our relationship, perhaps, only to his twin granddaughters) - actually attended this show! What a thrill to preserve a special memory like that on record - a nice reminder of one of the things Record Store Day is about.

These exclusives aren't premiering anything unheard, but are worth checking out anyway!

John Williams, Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone/Chamber of Secrets/Prisoner of Azkaban (Original Motion Picture Soundtracks) (Warner/Rhino)

The world's most beloved film score composer extended his influence into a new millennium by creating the early musical language to the films based on the first three Harry Potter novels. Though the series' author has complicated the legacy of the stories and their adaptations - indeed, she now seems to stand for much of the justice her heroic wizards seemed to be about - John Williams' enchanting themes offer nothing but fond memories of the films and the composer's uncanny ability to not just enhance but tell stories with his music.

Prince and The New Power Generation, Live At Glam Slam (NPG/Legacy)

Though this club set from 1992 is even better seen than just heard (in the super deluxe box of Diamonds & Pearls that remains among the last major Prince catalogue titles that's been released), it's absolutely something you should check out. That original NPG line-up burned fast, bright and hot - and here's the proof.

Duran Duran, Danse Macabre De Luxe (Bonus Tracks) (Tape Modern/BMG)

2023's Danse Macabre - a Duran Duran collection of re-recordings, covers and a few new tracks with a loose Halloween theme - really hung together, certainly in part due to some triumphant studio contributions from the band's best-known guitarists, Andy Taylor (axe man of the "Fab Five" era from 1981 to 1985) and Warren Cuccurullo (who took over after Taylor's departure from 1986 to 2001, until Andy returned to the fold through the mid-to-late '00s). A reissue last year brought even more treats for Duranies with a multi-format deluxe edition - and this zoetrope vinyl offers an extra chance to get three of the extra tracks that weren't available on the deluxe CD or digital sets.

a-ha, Hunting High and Low: The 1984 Demos (Warner/Rhino)

The Norwegian trio's 1985 debut (which is far more than just the perfect single "Take on Me") has been a stalwart of Rhino's catalogue for quite some time. If you've not treated yourself to the 30th anniversary box set of the album, some of its bonus material is coming to vinyl for Record Store Day: the entire album, in demo form. (Interestingly, the early version of album cut "Living a Boy's Adventure Tale" was only on a 2CD edition of the album from 2010.)

The Replacements, Tim (Sire/Rhino)

The first major-label album by The 'Mats (and last with original guitarist Bob Stinson) is a quintessential introduction to Paul Westerberg's peerless songcraft and the group's often chaotic sound. In 2023, the album received a heart-stopping new mix from Ed Stasium, removing all of the post-production mud of Tommy Ramone's original pass. Now, both mixes are available in one vinyl package for your comparing pleasure. A lot of reissues claim you've never heard something "like this," but Tim's new mix is the real deal.

Next up, Joe shares his picks!

Todd Rundgren, Initiation (Rhino)

When Todd Rundgren's Initiation was first released in 1975, it came on the heels of the sonic auteur's sprawling double album Todd.  Unlike that LP, Initiation was a single-LP release.  But at roughly 68 minutes long, it was around a minute longer than Todd.  Happily, for its 50th anniversary RSD appearance as part of Rhino's (seemingly) ongoing Rundgren reissue series, Initiation has been spread across two light blue vinyl LPs as mastered by Chris Bellman from the original quarter-inch tapes for pristine, improved sound.  The artist's experimental side was at the forefront of the album as he embraced the progressive rock ethos of his band, Utopia.  The first of the two original sides, opening with "Real Man" and concluding with "Fair Warning," was a song-focused grab-bag with the eclectic spirit of A Wizard, A True Star or Todd.  If the shimmering "Real Man" (featuring Utopia's Kevin Ellman, John Siegler, Ralph Schuckett, and Moogy Klingman) was the requisite soul-pop anthem, "Born to Synthesize" quickly dispelled listeners of any notions of conventionality; the nearly a cappella track found Rundgren running his voice through a Moog and other synths as he explored the act of synthesis both relating to music and life.  The searching tone continued on the biting "Eastern Intrigue" (on which Rundgren asks, "Will the real God please stand up?") and the ballad "Fair Warning," the latter of which welcomed Edgar Winter, Rick Derringer, and Dan Hartman.  Derringer also lent his axe to the searing "The Death of Rock and Roll."  Bernard "Pretty" Purdie and Rick Marotta's drums powered the title track's cosmic rock (with a tasty David Sanborn sax solo), but even the spiritual and exploratory overtones on Side One couldn't have prepared listeners for the second side's 36-minute synth opus "A Treatise on Cosmic Fire," close in spirit to Utopia's epic prog workouts.  It's split across two sides of vinyl on this reissue and remains as trippy and defiantly unconventional as ever.  This RSD release houses its two LPs in a single pocket sleeve which also contains an insert with liner notes from Rundgren biographer Paul Myers and lyrics.  Todd is currently out on the road singing the hell out of Burt Bacharach classics from "Any Day Now" to "God Give Me Strength;" Initiation is a reminder of how Todd - like Bacharach - never took the obvious path, and pushed the envelope of popular music.

Carla Thomas, Sweet Sweetheart (Stax/Craft)

As the 1960s turned to the 1970s, producer Chips Moman was in demand. Working out of American Studios in Memphis, Moman brought his soulful touch to albums from Dionne Warwick, Petula Clark, Jackie DeShannon, and Cher, not to mention Elvis Presley and B.J. Thomas and countless other legendary artists.  Carla Thomas was one such artist.  Chips was well-acquainted with Carla, having engineered and produced Stax Records' very first hit single, her 1960 "Gee Whiz (Look at His Eyes)."  When she entered American to record once again with Moman, one single emerged in 1970: Phil Spector, Irwin Levine, and Toni Wine's "I Loved You Like I Love My Very Life" b/w Carole King and Gerry Goffin's "Hi-De-Ho (That Old Sweet Roll)."  When it failed to chart, Stax shelved the rest of the album Thomas and Moman had produced despite the fact that both singer and producer were at the top of their game.  Ace Records unearthed the tracks comprising Sweet Sweetheart on a 2013 CD; now Stax and Craft Recordings have brought the full album to light-blue vinyl in a new presentation.  The material is choice, including songs by James Taylor (a rollicking southern soul jaunt down a "Country Road"), The Bee Gees (the ubiquitous "To Love Somebody," still rendered successfully by Carla), Ray Stevens ("Everything Is Beautiful"), and Goffin and King ("Sweet Sweetheart" as well as "Hi-De-Ho").  Toni Wine, whom Moman married in 1971, wrote some of the strongest cuts here including "Heaven Help the Non-Believer" with Carole Bayer Sager, "I'm Gettin' Closer to You" with Larry Brown, and "I Think I Love You Again" with Irwin Levine.  With the American Boys providing the musical accompaniment and Thomas proving versatile on rockers and ballads alike, Sweet Sweetheart is a potent distillation of the "Chips Moman Sound" as sung by one of soul's most distinctive vocalists.

Warren Zevon, Piano Fighter (Giant/Rhino)

The late Warren Zevon (1947-2003) only released three solo albums for Giant Records; collectively, these records served to bridge the gap between his atypical '80s output for Virgin Records and his sadly-curtailed renaissance for the indie Artemis label.  (Zevon died two weeks after the release of his third and final Artemis LP, aged just 56.)  As such, these two studio records and one live set tend to be overlooked in his relatively compact discography.  The new 4LP  set Piano Fighter, while lacking any bonus material, affords the chance to hear these albums anew in beautiful Bernie Grundman remasters from the original analogue tapes; Mr. Bad Example (1991) makes its North American debut in the vinyl format while Learning to Flinch (1993) and Mutineer (1995) make their worldwide vinyl premieres on this set.  The title track Piano Fighter comes from one of the three new songs on the live double album Learning to Flinch, which is otherwise filled with the wonderfully witty, often twisted, sometimes dark, and usually edgy songs on which Zevon made his name including "Excitable Boy," "Poor, Poor Pitiful Me," "Werewolves of London," and "Lawyers, Guns, and Money."  Zevon's Giant debut, Mr. Bad Example proved that the enfant terrible of Southern California rock hadn't mellowed.  With production by Waddy Wachtel and appearances from David Lindley, Jim Keltner, Jorge Calderon, and other pals, it recalled the muscular sound of his '70s triumphs.  Lyrically, Zevon's lyrical edge was intact on the likes of the acerbic "Finishing Touches" and amusingly ironic "Model Citizen" as well as the humorous "Mr. Bad Example" and "Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead."  There's a moving undercurrent to "Searching for a Heart" and a Tom Petty-esque lilt to "Suzie Lightning."  Songcraft was always paramount to Zevon, and that quality imbues all of his Giant work.  The self-produced and mostly self-recorded Mutineer featured guest spots from Calderon and Lindley alongside Rosemary Butler, Bruce Hornsby, Peter Asher, and Larry Klein.  Zevon the storyteller took flight on "Seminole Bingo" while the philosopher ruled on "The Indifference of Heaven" and the romantic sings on "Mutineer," a fun play on his own persona.  The inclusion of a cover - Judee Sill's "Jesus Was a Cross Maker" - might have indicated a lack of inspiration, but it's so well-done that it seems churlish to complain.  There's never been another Warren Zevon, and this worthy box celebrates this musical renegade-slash-mutineer in fine fashion.​

David Bowie, Ready, Set, Go! [Live, Riverside Studios, '03] (Parlophone/Rhino)

On October 7, 2003, David Bowie kicked off A Reality Tour in Denmark; spanning 112 shows in total before its finale on June 25, 2004 in Germany, it became the longest tour of Bowie's career.  Little did those of us lucky enough to attend know it would also be the artist's final tour.  (Sadly, a number of dates which would have taken place in summer 2004 were cancelled due to Bowie's heart attack.  This author attended the May 13, 2004 date in Hershey, PA, in which he delivered a vibrant, typically blazing performance.  It remains a concertgoing highlight.)  Before launching the tour, however, Bowie warmed up with a September show at London's Riverside Studios which was shown in cinemas worldwide.  Now, the audio for that show - said to be the first concert broadcast live via satellite - has arrived on both vinyl and CD.  The first three sides of the vinyl release mirror the Reality album, with original songs plus covers of the Modern Lovers' "Pablo Picasso" and George Harrison's "Try Some, Buy Some."  Bowie and his band (including keyboardist Mike Garson, guitarists Earl Slick and Gerry Leonard, bassist/singer Gail Ann Dorsey, drummer Sterling Campbell, and multi-instrumentalist Catherine Russell) were clearly thrilled to be premiering so much new material.  Nostalgia was not top of mind; the three-song encore presented on Ready, Set, Go! consists of "Hallo, Spaceboy" from 1. Outside plus "Cactus" and "Afraid" from Reality's immediate predecessor, Heathen.  These performances crackle with energy and vivacity - a big, powerful rock noise as only David Bowie could have delivered.  Though many of the lyrics seem to deal with aging and mortality - concepts the artist would devastatingly explore once again near the end of his life - the sound is immediate, raucous, and contemporary, befitting an artist whose art remained at the cutting edge.  The top-notch packaging of the RSD release recalls the Brilliant Adventures series of live releases, of which this makes a fine companion.

Joni Mitchell and The L.A. Express, 1976 U.S. Tour (Rhino)

The latest breakout from the acclaimed series of Joni Mitchell Archives, 1976 U.S. Tour presents, on 3LPs and six sides of vinyl, what could best be described as the "alternate Miles of Aisles."  The tour found her backed by the L.A. Express (who also opened the shows): Robben Ford (electric guitar), Victor Feldman (keyboards/percussion), David Luell (woodwinds), Max Bennett (bass), and John Guerin (drums/percussion).  A typical tour setlist is reconstructed from various dates, but mostly from the February 19, 1976 show at Boston's Music Hall.  Collectively, these tracks make an essential companion to the abridged Miles of Aisles album.  Throughout the concerts, Mitchell struck a balance between popular favorites (tour opener "Help Me," "Free Man in Paris," "Big Yellow Taxi," "For Free," "Raised on Robbery"), almost all of her then-most recent album Hissing of Summer Lawns (lacking only the title song, "The Boho Dance," and "Sweet Bird"), and brand-new material that hadn't yet appeared on an album ("Hejira," "Coyote," "Furry Sings the Blues," "Talk to Me").  Material from the intimate Blue was wholly absent for this big, rollicking show.  Though the rhythmic accompaniment of the L.A. Express brightly and swingingly enlivened the likes of "Love or Money" and "In France They Kiss on Main Street," the solo moments such as "For Free" (with Joni on piano), "Big Yellow Taxi," and the humorous "Talk to Me" (reportedly inspired by that perennial "complete unknown," Bob Dylan) resonated, too.  What these live tracks - recorded by Stanley Johnston from PA mixes by Brian Jonathan, and subtly mastered by Bernie Grundman - lack in audio quality is more than made up for in both historical significance and the quality of the alternately freewheeling and affecting performances by Mitchell and her well-honed band.  "Coyote," destined to open Hejira, is both persuasive and conversational; it seamlessly segues into "Don Juan's Reckless Daughter." The embryonic "Hejira," here titled "Traveling," is captivating and raw in its delivery and its lyrical imagery.  The epic ballad's familiar words aren't all in place yet, and some were subsequently rearranged - a testament to "good enough" never being good enough for Mitchell.  1976 U.S. Tour captures Mitchell on top of the world and at one of many artistic peaks throughout her extraordinary career; the lavish and elegant packaging of this vinyl release matches the quality of the rip-roaring music within its sleeve.

We'd be remiss if we didn't give another mention to Marianne Faithfull's posthumous EP, Burning Moonlight, a full-circle celebration of the late vocalist's 60 years as a recording artist.  It's released on Decca Records, the same label which introduced Marianne with two LPs - one of folk music and one of pop tunes - in 1965.  This EP echoes that format with one side dedicated to each genre.  Please see our interview with executive producer Andrew Batt for more on this beautiful four-song release, including news of what to expect next from the Faithfull catalogue.

Last but not least, here's Randy with his favorite titles!

Jackie DeShannon, Love Forever - Demo Recordings 1966-1968 (Real Gone Music)

Jackie DeShannon signed with Liberty Records and Metric Music in 1960 as a performer and songwriter.  Her big break would come in 1964 when she would open for The Beatles on their first U.S. tour.  The next year she would record Bacharach and David's "What the World Needs Now is Love" and her recording career really took off.  But songwriting was always paramount to Jackie's career, and she placed such classic songs as "When You Walk in the Room" with The Searchers in 1964 and "Don't Doubt Yourself Babe" with The Byrds for their debut album in 1965.  This new compilation picks up the next year.  The sixteen demos here find DeShannon turning a bit more introspective as musical tastes began to change and would preview her songwriting in the 1970s.  Ten of the recordings here have never been heard before by the public so there is much to discover.  The best thing about this set is that is essentially a new Jackie DeShannon album - which is always something to celebrate.  The compilation features new liner notes from Ritchie Unterberger with quotes from DeShannon.  It comes on Valentine's red vinyl and is limited to 900 copies in the US, 1,250 total worldwide.

Vince Guaraldi Trio, Jazz Impressions of "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" (Craft Recordings)

Peanuts celebrates its 75th anniversary this year and Vince Guaraldi's association with the franchise marked its 60th anniversary last year.  Guaraldi first became involved with the characters when he was approached to score a television documentary about Peanuts creator Charles Schultz in 1964.  The documentary was not released at the time but the accompanying soundtrack, Jazz Impressions of "A Boy Named Charlie Brown," did still find release to great acclaim.  It introduced the famous "Linus and Lucy" theme and Guaraldi would be forever linked to Peanuts when he scored A Charlie Brown Christmas, which hit airwaves in 1965.

This LP from Craft collects 14 bonus tracks from their expanded 2-CD reissue of the original album which comes out today.  The cover is taken from the original album and is only slightly altered with the words "Alternate Takes" inserted on the left side.  The back of the LP, designed in a period style, contains new, informative liner notes by Derrick Bang, a Guaraldi biographer.  Some of these alternates are quite different from the originals and while not a replacement for the initial LP, offer a worthwhile look into the making of the classic.  The LP is pressed on sky blue vinyl and is limited to 3,000 copies.  Fans of Peanuts and Guaraldi can also find a limited 10" vinyl containing selections from his score to It's The Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown, available for RSD from Lee Mendelson Film Productions.

Doc Pomus, Viva Doc Pomus: Songs for Elvis (The Demos) (Omnivore)

Doc Pomus needs little introduction and his place in rock history would be secured even if Elvis Presley had never recorded any of his songs.  How could it not be with titles like "A Teenager In Love," "Save The Last Dance For Me," "This Magic Moment," or "Can't Get Used to Losing You" in his songbook?  But he did have a long and fruitful collaboration with Presley and that is what is explored on this new 2-LP set from Omnivore.  Digging through this collection is like digging in a time capsule.  You will find demos of some of Elvis' biggest songs like "Viva Las Vegas," "She's Not You," and "(Marie's the Name) His Latest Flame."  But what is more fascinating are the songs that Elvis chose not to record.  Could they have been huge hits as well?   Now you can decide for yourself if there are any unrealized gems.  Released to coincide with Pomus' 100th birthday, the RSD edition of the album comes on opaque orange vinyl and is limited to 1,700 copies.

Talking Heads, Live on Tour '78 (Rhino)

Rhino has been digging into the Talking Heads vaults recently, releasing the soundtrack to the concert film Stop Making Sense and an expanded edition of their debut album.  Now comes this concert from 1978.  It was recorded at the Agora Ballroom in Cleveland, Ohio during the tour for their second album, More Songs About Buildings and Food.  Initially released as a promo LP, it has never been reissued.  This new version has been remastered and adds one previously unreleased bonus track, "Thank You For Sending Me an Angel."  It is available on CD today and the RSD release is the only announced vinyl version.  Mastered at 45 RPM, the 11-song concert is presented across 2 LPs.  While Stop Making Sense is probably the band's greatest live album, this concert shows the group in its early days with songs from their first two albums and has a raw energy to it.  The 45 RPM speed also lets the sound breathe.  The 2-LP are housed in a single outer sleeve.  This set is limited to 8,000 copies.

Various Artists, High Anxiety Original Soundtrack / Mel Brooks' Greatest Hits Featuring The Fabulous Film Scores of John Morris (Rhino)

1977's High Anxiety was Mel Brooks' sixth film but the first to find him starring in a speaking role (he also starred in Silent Movie, but appropriately did not talk).  The madcap Hitchcock parody received a mostly positive response upon its release (including from Hitchcock himself) and is a solid entry in Brooks' filmography.  For the soundtrack, something a little different was released.  Brooks first met composer John Morris when they worked together on the Broadway musical Shinbone Alley in the late 1950s.  In 1968, Brooks tapped Morris to orchestrate and provide underscore for his first feature, The Producers.  Morris would go on to write the score for all of Brooks' film except two until he passed away in 2018.  But even as early as 1977, the pair wanted to celebrate their collaboration.  Therefore, the vinyl soundtrack to High Anxiety would be a compilation of all of their movies.  The first side contains five songs and score cues from the film while the second side contains 11 tracks from The Producers, The Twelve Chairs, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein and Silent Movie.  (The LP is a bit lopsided with the first side only running around 13 minutes and the second side running around a half hour).   But the material is here is often hilarious and you'll hear such classics as "Springtime for Hitler," "The French Mistake," "I'm Tired," and "Puttin' on the Ritz."

Rhino's new LP comes on red-yellow vinyl and is limited to 2,800 copies.  The package replicates the original and comes in a gatefold with the original essay by Lawrence Weschler included.  This album has only been reissued once on CD by Wounded Bird in 2012 and this is the first vinyl reissue.  A very nice package for fans of Brooks and Morris.

And here are a few other titles worth checking out:

Doctor Who, 10th Planet (Demon Records) - This 2-LP set features the soundtrack to one of the most historic Doctor Who serials of all time featuring the debut of the Cybermen and the last appearance of William Hartnell as the Doctor leading to the first regeneration sequence in the show.

Oasis, Time Flies 1994...2009 (Legacy Recordings) - Get ready for Oasis's upcoming tour with this 4-LP set which puts the 2010 singles compilation on vinyl for the first time and immerse yourself in some great music from the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Queen, De Lane Lea Demos (Hollywood Records) - You can hear piece of rock history on this EP which features the five demo songs recorded by the newly formed Queen in late 1971 and early 1972.  These newly remixed versions made their debut on CD in the super deluxe edition of Queen's debut album from last year.

Various Artists, Top Secret! Soundtrack (Rusted Wave/1984 Publishing) - Celebrate the late Val Kilmer with this soundtrack to his debut film.  The A-side features him singing on six songs while the B-side includes score cues from Maurice Jarre for the 1984 comedy.

Various Artists, Wicked: The Soundtrack (Republic) - Ok, this isn't really much of a classic reissue as the album only came out last year, but this new 2-LP version of the powerful soundtrack to the hit film (with songs by Stephen Schwartz) features the physical premiere of a previously digital-only bonus track.
