Free Ride: Edgar Winter's Solo and Band Albums Collected on Two New Box Sets
With his long mane of white hair, Edgar Winter has long cut one of the most striking profiles in rock. Like his older brother Johnny, Texas-born Edgar was steeped in the blues. Emerging onto the scene with the 1970 Epic album Entrance, Winter fused blues with many of the styles with which he would become known, including rock, pop, soul, and jazz. Funk and even disco would come later, but one thing remained constant in whatever genre Edgar Winter was recording: virtuosic musicianship. A

In 1992, before Suede had even issued a single song, Melody Maker put the London group on its cover, deeming them "The Best New Band in Britain." With praise like that - and considering everything that followed - it's no surprise Edsel is reissuing the album as a multi-disc box set for its 25th anniversary in March. Suede: 25th Anniversary Silver Edition is the ultimate presentation of the group's chart-topping, Mercury Prize-winning, best-selling 1993 debut. It features the original album, a
'Bring It On' Again: Gomez Plan Deluxe Edition of Debut Album
British rockers Gomez are bringing out their critically acclaimed debut album Bring It On in a whole new way for its 20th anniversary this year, with a multi-format reissue in May and a North American tour to follow. While the group's debut album was a modest chart success, just missing the U.K. Top 10 albums chart and yielding only one Top 40 single, "Whippin' Piccadilly" - critics and fans alike made the LP a hearty slow-burner, eventually going platinum in its native England. The lo-fi

Who Came First [Expanded Edition]
Pete Townshend's 1972 solo debut returns in a new 2-CD edition. A spiritual tribute to Indian spiritual leader Meher Baba, the album's genesis was in two mail-order tribute albums to the Guru (who died in 1969 after a 44-year vow of silence) in which Townshend had participated. Songs from the tribute LPs were joined by demos from the long-aborning Lifehouse project as well as a pair of new songs.

Who, What, When, Where, Why: Rupert Holmes' "Songs That Sound Like Movies" OUT TODAY from Cherry Red [UPDATED]
There are songs that sound like movies/There are themes that fill the screen/There are lines I say that sound as if they're written/There are looks I wear the theatre should have seen... With those words, Rupert Holmes welcomed listeners into his singular musical world - one in which the only limits were those of the singer-songwriter's boundless imagination.
