Bloody Well Right: Mercury Studios Reissues Supertramp's "Live in Paris '79"
With the release of 1979's Breakfast in America, Supertramp ascended to superstar status. The U.K. group's sixth studio album, Breakfast was one of the year's best-selling albums.

Happiness Is: Vince Guaraldi's First Charlie Brown Album to Be Expanded by Craft Recordings
Happiness is many things to many people: good friends, childlike wonder, catchy tunes...and, perhaps, a warm puppy. From Craft Recordings comes a new reissue that includes all four: a newly expanded edition of 1964's Jazz Impressions of A Boy Named Charlie Brown, the first in a series of fateful collaborations between jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi and Charles M. Schulz's lovable Peanuts characters. The 2CD set, available April 4, offers a fresh remaster of Guaraldi's initial nine compositions
With Arms Outstretched: A Reunited Rilo Kiley Plans New Compilation, Reissue of Breakthrough Album

In Memoriam: Roberta Flack (1937-2025)
Even Robert Christgau couldn't get it right all the time. The self-professed "dean of American rock critics" sniffed at Roberta Flack's Quiet Fire in 1971 thusly: "Flack is generally regarded as the most significant new black woman singer since Aretha Franklin, and at moments she sounds kind, intelligent, and very likable. But she often exhibits the gratuitous gentility you'd expect of someone who says 'between you and I.'" At this juncture, Flack was three albums into a tenure with Atlantic
Let the Guitar Play: Santana's New 'Sentient' Revisits Collabs with Smokey Robinson, Miles Davis, Michael Jackson and More

Sentient, hitting stores on March 28, brings together joint tracks with Michael Jackson, Miles Davis, Smokey Robinson and Darryl "DMC" McDaniels of Run-DMC, along with select deep cuts that make for a retrospective distinct from well known

Review: WAR, "Live in Japan 1974"
"The Japanese were nice, but really afraid of us," remembers WAR's producer-manager Jerry Goldstein in the liner notes to the band's new Live in Japan 1974. "That's how we came up with the 'Hey, why can't we be friends?' concept. In the dressing room that night, Lonnie was playing the keyboards and we started doing the song. No verses, just the 'why can't we be friends' part. We wrote it there, went back to the U.S., and in January [1975], we recorded it." The catchy plea "Why Can't We Be

BMG for RSD: Duran Duran, Thompson Twins, De La Soul, Solo Stones and More Coming from Catalogue Label for Record Store Day
Among the bigger surprises of an already packed Record Store Day slate is seeing labels increase their presence within the usual offerings. One such case: BMG, a company steadily growing in prominence since corporate owner Bertelsmann sold a four-year stake in Sony Music and started rebuilding with a host of classic rock, pop and other catalogues as well as new releases from those acts. This year, the company has prepped a baker's dozen special vinyl titles for the RSD festivities on Saturday,

INXS' breakthrough album is getting the red carpet treatment for its 40th anniversary. The Australian group's 1985 effort Listen Like Thieves is getting a multi-format reissue this spring...and while it will be available around the world, there's a slight catch: each format has different and unique bonus material.

They Will Have Their Way: Legacy Plans Packed Record Store Day Slate
Is it just us, or has Record Store Day felt a little muted in recent years? Obviously the annual Black Friday celebration boasts less titles than the festivities held every April, but it's sometimes been a struggle to identify great archival titles or worthy re-pressed discs. Well, that certainly isn't the case this year: labels seem to have gone into overdrive stockpiling interesting LPs and singles worth a second (or first!) look - and one of the strongest showings might be Sony Music's Legacy
