Prince & The Revolution, Around the World in a Day [40th Anniversary Edition]
Besides its crystal-clear sound, the draw for this expanded singles collection is its curios such as the 22-minute “America” and Prince’s serpentine contribution to the We Are the World album.
La Luz, Extra! Extra!
Reworking tracks from 2024’s News of the Universe LP, Shana Cleveland emphasizes themes of change, non-determinism, and acceptance on an EP that aptly feels a little lonely.
The Durutti Column, The Return of The Durutti Column [45th Anniversary Edition]
This reissue of the art-rockers’ 1980 debut may not come with the sandpaper sleeve it had upon its initial release, yet that doesn’t make its haunting, all-instrumental music any less abrasive.
