Symptom of the Universe: Black Sabbath Announce 'Sabotage' Box Set
It's been a big year for fans of Black Sabbath. In the first few months of 2021, Rhino has already released a box set of the band's 1972 album Vol. 4, followed by 2CD expanded editions of the first two Dio-era albums. Now, the label has announced another super deluxe box set - this time of 1975's Sabotage. Due on June 11, it will be available in both 4CD and 4LP/7" editions. While the album's title was inspired by the legal battle raging between Sabbath and its former manager, the album
God Knows I'm Good: Live Rarities, Singles Collected on Bowie's 'The Width of a Circle'
David Bowie's third album The Man Who Sold the World opened with the blistering "The Width of a Circle," an eight-minute blast of rock adrenaline culminating in the narrator's illicit encounter with a supernatural being in the burning pits of Hell. Bowie had quickly come a long way from the music hall theatricality of his first eponymous LP and the psychedelic folk-rock of his second. The 1970 LP welcomed guitarist Mick Ronson and drummer Woody Woodmansey, the first appearance on a Bowie album
Wake Up You Sleepy Head: "Oh! You Pretty Things" Collects 66 Glam Rock Nuggets
Oh! You Pretty Things: David Bowie's 1971 song became an anthem for the glam era: "Don't you know you're driving your mothers and fathers insane? Let me make it plain, you gotta make way for the homo superior..." Bowie's alien persona - androgynous, dangerous, sexy, and flamboyant - connected with youth and caused a stir among their parents. The song's title has now been adopted by a new 3-CD box set from Cherry Red's Grapefruit imprint. Alas, "Oh! You Pretty Things" doesn't appear anywhere

And The Clock Goes Round: Unreleased 1968 Elton John Album to Debut on Record Store Day

Hands Across The Water: Paul and Linda McCartney's "RAM" Gets Half-Speed Remaster Treatment in May
Paul McCartney had always been one for a homespun album, whether it be his 1970 debut McCartney, Chaos and Creation in the Backyard from 2005, or McCartney III, which he recorded in lockdown (or rockdown, as he called it). Last year, McCartney was the first of his albums to receive a half-speed remaster at Abbey Road, which was pressed up for Record Store Day. The Paul McCartney Half-Speed Remaster series continues with the indie favorite RAM, due May 14 to commemorate its 50th

Flight of the Moorglade: Cherry Red, Esoteric Reissue Jon Anderson's "Olias of Sunhillow"
Jon Anderson's 1976 solo debut Olias of Sunhillow was a lockdown album decades before those were in vogue. Recorded in his home's garage with Anderson on every instrument, the singer-songwriter recalled three months of 10-hour days to bring the ambitious sci-fi/fantasy concept album to life. While its success was modest - it peaked at No. 47 in the U.S. and a stronger No. 8 at home in the U.K. - Olias musically anticipated Anderson's collaborations with Vangelis and is today fondly looked upon

Eagles Live
1980's Eagles Live remains a beloved document of two of the band's tours, recorded in California in 1976 and 1980.

The double-album now returns to stores on 180-gram vinyl with the most recent remastering and a full-sized poster.
Long Road Out of Eden
Long Road Out of Eden marked the Eagles' return to the studio by way of a double-CD set that was originally released as a Wal-Mart exclusive. It explicitly recaptured the band's original sound with a cover of band pal J.D. Souther's "How Long" which the Eagles had sung in concert but never on record. Don Henley and Glenn Frey rekindled their songwriting partnership, and the album contained songs from Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmit, sideman Steuart Smith, and another longtime friend, Jack
