Their Satanic Majesties Request - 50th Anniversary Special Edition
The Rolling Stones' controversial 1967 immersion into psychedelia, Their Satanic Majesties Request, gets a 50th anniversary box set from ABKCO containing the original album in mono and stereo on both 180-gram vinyl and hybrid SACD (playable on all CD players) as newly remastered by Bob Ludwig, plus restored lenticular artwork and a 20-page booklet with new liner notes by Rob Bowman.
Review: Santana and The Isley Brothers, "Power of Peace"
In 1965, Hal David first made the observation, "What the world needs now is love, sweet love...it's the only thing that there's just too little of." Over fifty-two years later, there's still just too little love, and it's a situation which Carlos Santana has aimed to remedy. The guitar hero was inspired by seeing the velvet-voiced Ron Isley, longtime lead singer of The Isley Brothers, performing with Burt Bacharach in a 2004 television special promoting their collaborative album Here I Am.
She's a Rainbow: ABKCO Preps 50th Anniversary Box Set For The Rolling Stones' "Satanic Majesties Request"
The Rolling Stones aren't the first band one might think of in connection with the Summer of Love and the blossoming sound of psychedelia. Yet the Stones spent much of 1967, on and off, recording the album that became Their Satanic Majesties Request. Wholly unique in the band's catalogue, it fused the band's gritty sensibility with psychedelic effects, more lavish instrumentation, and experimental sounds. Underscoring its nature as a conceptual work, it was also the first album by the Stones
Review: Ramones, "Leave Home: 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition"
The sophomore album from Forest Hills, Queens, New York's Ramones, Leave Home, arrived in January 1977 on Sire Records, just months after the April 1976 release of the band's self-titled debut. Despite the title, however, Leave Home didn't mark a large stylistic leap or departure for the young punks out of their comfort zone. On closer inspection, however, it continued the growth of the band. Forty years later, it's easier to hear that progression than ever, thanks to a new, 3-CD/1-LP set
Sirius-ly Expanded: Legacy Plans 'Eye in the Sky' Box from Alan Parsons Project
The eye in the sky is still looking at you... On November 17, Legacy Recordings will issue a 35th anniversary box set celebrating The Alan Parsons Project's 1982 Eye in the Sky. The album, which yielded the APP's biggest hit single with its title track as well as the classic instrumental "Sirius," will be enhanced for this expansive 3-CD/1-BD/2-LP/1-Flexidisc release with rare and previously unreleased material. Perhaps the pinnacle of the collaboration between Alan Parsons and Eric

Rhino Plans Plush Box Set for Stone Temple Pilots' 'Core'
Rhino Records will celebrate Stone Temple Pilots' debut album with a multi-format reissue this fall. Core introduced the world to STP's raw fusion of grunge and album-oriented rock, a combination the band said was intentional. "You know how when you listen to a Led Zeppelin album, you listen to the entire album, not just the odd song?" bassist Robert DeLeo asked of Core. "We wanted to make a record like that. We wanted to create a vibe which would run right through the whole album." DeLeo,

Interpol 'Admire' Third Album On 10th Anniversary CD/DVD Set
While Interpol have dutifully supported the 15th anniversary of their debut album Turn On the Bright Lights (which was reissued for its 10th anniversary) with a tour, they're also going to revisit their third album and major label debut, Our Love to Admire, with a 10th anniversary package.

Keats and Yeats Are On Your Side: The Smiths' 'The Queen is Dead' to Be Expanded
The Smiths' The Queen is Dead--a towering album of '80s British rock and arguably the definitive statement by the Manchester band--will be reissued and expanded October 20.

Bitter Sweet Symphony: The Verve's 'Urban Hymns' Gets Box Set Edition
The Verve's third album, 1997's Urban Hymns, may be the band's most famous in any part of the world. It's little surprise, then, that Universal is going big for the album's 20th anniversary with a multi-format deluxe edition due in the fall. Recorded after the band's first breakup and reformation (with the subsequent addition of guitarist/keyboardist Simon Tong), Urban Hymns was an ambitious piece of Britpop and balladry, recorded with producers Youth and Chris Potter.
