The Rolling Stones, Black and Blue [Super Deluxe Edition]
The group’s 1976 musical chairs of lead guitarists is rarely cited as anyone’s favorite Stones album, though this package reminds us that it’s among their most alive and spontaneous.
The Smashing Pumpkins, Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness [30th Anniversary Edition]
Rising above the odd brand partnerships it came paired with, this opulent quadruple-LP reissue builds off of the already-expansive source material with unearthed live recordings from the band’s creative prime.
The Notwist, Magnificent Fall
This non-chronological batch of remixes and other rarities regales in the utter joy of what must be in the brothers Achers’ heads when they spin gorgeous alchemical gold.
