Set the Night on Fire: The Doors Announce 60th Anniversary Campaign
2025 marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of The Doors. Though the eponymous debut album from Jim Morrison, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger, and John Densmore didn't hit stores until January 1967, the foursome was already a seasoned one, having served as house band at the famed Whisky a Go Go since mid-1966. To celebrate 60 years since that fateful day when Manzarek met his old UCLA classmate Morrison on a California beach and the two decided to form a band, Rhino has announced a number of
Wild and Crazy: Rhino Collects Steve Martin's Comedy Albums
There aren't many comedians funnier than Steve Martin. Though the gray-haired funnyman only spent the better part of a decade performing as a stand-up before pursuing acting, writing, and even bluegrass originals, Martin's brilliant blend of highbrow, lowbrow and absurdist humor made him one of the most head-turning entertainers of his generation. Rhino Records will celebrate his funniest sides with a new box set in November. Steve in a Box: The Warner Years (1977-1981) brings together all
All Around Man: Rory Gallagher's BBC Recordings Set for Heavy Duty Box
The influential guitar work of Rory Gallagher will be celebrated next month in an exhaustive box that collects hours of his live recordings for the BBC. The BBC Collection, available October 11, is an 18CD/2 Blu-ray set that mines both the radio service and the late musician's personal archives to bring together his in-studio appearances, live concerts, television specials and even a radio documentary. This box, of course, supersedes a 1999 double-disc collection of BBC highlights, offering
The Jungle is Your Head: U2 Prep 'Atomic Bomb' Box
Hello, hello: U2 will revisit their 11th album - and, depending on where you stand, the end of one era and the start of another - with a deluxe box set edition of How to Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. The set, available November 22 - exactly 20 years to the day of its original release - will feature five CDs or eight LPs of music: the original album, new collections of unreleased demos and vintage remixes, and the debut audio release of Vertigo 2005 - Live from Chicago, released on DVD in 2005 in

Pictures Came and Broke Your Heart: Cherry Red to Release Bruce Woolley and The Camera Club Collection
Everyone knows the story: at the stroke of midnight on August 1, 1981, the new cable station Music Television (MTV) first aired, playing a steady stream of heretofore little-seen "music videos" that redefined pop music for the rest of the decade. Their first, of course, was The Buggles' "Video Killed the Radio Star": a prescient choice, though not even a single from the '80s (it topped the U.K. charts and dented the U.S. Top 40 in 1979!) - and, as a new collection from Cherry Red underlines, The
Needless to Say: Al Stewart's "Past, Present and Future" Goes Deluxe From Esoteric
Al Stewart fans have been rather well-served in recent years. The historically-minded troubadour recently released a new live album with the band The Empty Pockets, preserving a concert set on 2 CDs. Earlier this summer, Al received a volume of Rhino's Now Playing series of vinyl compilations. Last year, TSD teamed up with Real Gone Music for Songs on the Radio: The Complete U.S. Singles 1974-1981, and in 2022, Madfish issued The Admiralty Lights, a massive 50-CD box set featuring (almost)

Try Some, Buy Some: George Harrison's "Living in the Material World" Gets Expanded For Its 50th
As the studio follow-up to his landmark triple album All Things Must Pass, George Harrison further explored his spiritual and physical selves on 1973's leaner Living in the Material World. On November 15, the album will return from Dark Horse and BMG in a belated 50th anniversary edition comprising 2 CDs, 2 LPs, and a Blu-ray. It's limited to 5,000 units worldwide. The original album, newly remixed by Paul Hicks, will also be available in 2LP & 2CD Deluxe Editions, Limited Edition color
Qu'est-ce que c'est? Talking Heads' Debut Gets Box Set Treatment
Rhino's Talking Heads revisitation won't end with Stop Making Sense - they'll release a new deluxe box set of the group's 1977 debut album, featuring rare outtakes and B-sides, a live show and the album remixed in Dolby Atmos and surround, as overseen by the band's keyboardist/guitarist Jerry Harrison. Available November 8, the super deluxe edition of Talking Heads: 77 will come in hardcover book packaging that'll feature 80 pages of rare archival photos and liner notes written by all four
I'll Wear It Proudly: Elvis Costello Coronates 'King of America' for New Box Set
When King of America became Rhino's penultimate Elvis Costello reissue in 2005, a hype sticker cheekily hailed it as "the album that fans, critics and Elvis Costello all agree on." Perhaps that's why it'll be the next of his classic albums to receive a deluxe box set this fall. King of America and Other Realms, available November 1, follows the super deluxe, vinyl-and-digital-only The Complete Armed Forces box; however, this one's primarily available on CD - six of 'em, in total.

This Time La Luna: Duran Duran Expand 'Danse Macabre' One Year from Its Original Release
As we get closer to the time when there's a chill in the air and a penchant for "spooky season," Duran Duran are getting back into the spirit with an expanded version of their last album, meant to celebrate all things strange and unusual. 2023's Danse Macabre came just two years after the release of Future Past in 2021 - the shortest gap between new LPs from the band since the mid-'90s. The band were certainly riding high: Future Past was a celebration of what made the Birmingham group so
Vive Le Miles! Eighth Volume of 'Bootleg Series' Spotlights Davis' Second Quintet in France
Two years after its last entry, Legacy Recordings revives the Miles Davis Bootleg Series with a deep dive into some early '60s live recordings that showcase the birth of his second great quintet. Miles in France 1963 & 1964: The Bootleg Series Vol. 8 brings together five sets on six CDs or eight LPs: three performances from the Festival Mondial du Jazz in the summer of 1963 and two performances over a day at the Paris Jazz Festival in October 1964.

All Their Loving: New Mono Vinyl Box Set Celebrates The Beatles' First American Albums

Keep Yourself Alive: Queen Announce Deluxe Edition of Debut with Remixes, Outtakes and More
Queen will go back to the beginning of their recording career on a new box set edition of their debut. The Collectors Edition of their 1973 self-titled effort - now retitled Queen I - will be a 6CD/LP set featuring a brand-new remix of the album by engineers Justin Shirley-Smith, Joshua J Macrae and Kris Fredriksson; demos and studio outtakes; instrumental versions and live recordings. (A 2CD cut-down will include the new mix and the set's third disc, featuring studio alternates.) The box
Review: Faces, "Faces at the BBC: Complete BBC Concert and Session Recordings 1970-1973"
Between the summer of 1969 and the fall of 1975, a joyful noise emerged whenever Faces took the stage. Ronnie Lane (bass), Kenney Jones (drums), and Ian McLagan (keyboards) had emerged from the ashes of pop's Small Faces, while Rod Stewart (vocals) and Ronnie Wood (guitar) were blues-rock veterans of the first iteration of The Jeff Beck Group in which Wood played bass. When they came together, they created a sound unlike either of those earlier groups: rough-and-tumble, raw, ramshackle,
Weezer Awaken Ancient Feelings with Box Set Edition of Debut Album
Three decades after one of the quirkiest, catchiest rock albums of the '90s, Weezer will celebrate their self-titled debut with a box set packed with unreleased demos, studio and live material. Known the world over as "The Blue Album" - one of six self-titled albums the band has issued with color-coded covers - the debut will be reissued by UMe on November 1 as a 3CD set or vinyl equivalent spanning four LPs, a 10" EP and a 7" single. Both physical (and all digital) formats come with 40 bonus

Paul Robeson's Glorious Voice Gets Its Due on New Box Set

Review: John Lennon, "Mind Games: The Ultimate Collection"
It's been quite a while since the last John Lennon "Ultimate" box set. Imagine arrived in 2018, followed by Plastic Ono Band in 2021; the multi-disc solo anthology Gimme Some Truth: The Ultimate Mixes was released in between, in 2020. Anticipation justly ran high for this year's Mind Games: The Ultimate Collection, a 6CD/2BD set exploring every aspect of the solo Beatle's 1974 fourth album. (The politically-charged Some Time in New York City, a hybrid live/studio LP from John and Yoko, has
Touch My Heart: Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum Expands "From Where I Stand: The Black Experience in Country Music" Box Set
Back in 1998, The Country Music Foundation teamed with Warner Bros. Records to release From Where I Stand: The Black Experience in Country Music. The 3-CD box set was divided into three thematic discs - The Stringband Era, The Soul Country Years, and Forward with Pride - which reflected on the immense contributions of African-Americans to country music in 60 songs. Today, the spotlight shines even more brightly on the black experience in the genre, in no small part due to the release earlier
