Infidelity, bottle-throwing, love and loss swirl around ‘Shoot Out the Lights,’ recorded 40 years ago this month by Richard and Linda Thompson.

Here’s a reissue that’s long overdue: an eight-disc set of Steppenwolf’s complete studio work and live releases – with lots of cool extras.

Released 15 years ago this week, ‘Love’ remains a treasure trove for open-minded listeners in search of new details in the Beatles’ well-worn catalog.

Neal Francis bares his soul on his satisfying sophomore release ‘In Plain Sight’ but also shows how to do it without dragging down his listeners in the process.

Sometimes you can judge an album by its title, and that’s the case with British-based Ian M. Bailey’s pretty and pristine ‘Songs To Dream Along To.’

Oftentimes quickly knocking out a record translates into a low quality product. For someone like Sue Foley, the raw and unfiltered ‘Pinky’s Blues’ just means she’s doing what comes naturally.

Of course, any Pink Floyd novice should check out the actual album, but these star-packed reinterpretations of ‘Animals’ songs are pretty cool.

Terrific new vinyl reissues of ’60s-era albums by Herbie Hancock and Eric Dolphy represent two very distinct sides of the classic Blue Note period.

R.E.M.’s reflective and unconventional ‘Part Lies, Part Heart, Part Truth, Part Garbage’ arrived 10 years ago today as a sort-of concept greatest-hits set.

Listening to Matthew Shipp create on unaccompanied piano is like peering into the soul of a man. ‘Codebreaker’ exposes the soul of an artist absorbing decades of accomplishment but still capable of decades more.
