Those Dreamin' Eyes: D'Angelo's Debut to Be Expanded
A dip into the Second Disc Archives shows us one of our earliest Reissue Theory posts was a look at D'Angelo's 1995 debut Brown Sugar. A lot has changed since that post was written--not only here at The Second Disc, but with D'Angelo's career. At the tail end of 2015, the man born Michael Archer ended a 15-year silence with the release of Black Messiah, an emotionally charged old-school soul album that earned a rapturous response from critics.

Intrada Goes to Vietnam for Two Rare Disney Scores
