Adele - 30 [Order Now] - If you want to know why your favorite band’s new vinyl release is delayed, it may be because Columbia Records is pressing 500,000 copies of the new Adele LP. Its her first new album since 2015, so of course it will be huge, but did we need 500,000 copies? Probably yes and I’m just being bitter. Enjoy!

Kiss - Destroyer (45th anniversary deluxe edition) [Order Now] - No one loves making a dollar more than Kiss, so here’s another pressing of Destroyer! Destroyer 45th Anniversary Edition Deluxe 2 LP features the first-ever 1/2-speed mastered album from Abbey Road Mastering Studios on 180-gram heavy audiophile vinyl, plus 12 bonus tracks - 10 previously unreleased - including the new "Beth (Acoustic Mix)." A 20-page booklet showcases unreleased and rare photos along with "The Story of Destroyer" liner notes.

Oasis - Knebworth 1996 [Order Now] - It feels like a million years have passed since Oasis was on top of the rock world, but this concert documents them at their rock star peak. This year marks 25 years since Oasis’ two iconic record breaking live concerts at Knebworth Park in Hertfordshire on the 10th and 11th August 1996. The shows were both the pinnacle of the band’s success and a landmark gathering for a generation of young people.

Robert Plant/Alison Krauss - Raise The Roof [Order Now: Black - Indie Exclusive] - In 2007, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss released Raising Sand, one of the most acclaimed albums of the 21st Century. It was an unlikely, mesmerizing pairing of one of rock's greatest frontmen with one of country music's finest and most honored artists, produced by the legendary T Bone Burnett. Now, after 14 years, they return with Raise the Roof, 12 songs from a range of traditions and styles that extend this remarkable collaboration in new and thrilling directions. Gatefold Jacket, 180-gram 2 LP.

Small Faces - Live 66 [Order Now] - Restored by Tosh Flood and newly mastered by Nick Robbins who have worked on all previous Small Faces remasters on Decca and Immediate. From the archive of surviving band member Kenney Jones, two sets recorded at the Twenty Club in Mouscron, Belgium on 9 January 1966 capture incredible live versions of well-known songs alongside tracks The Small Faces never recorded in the studio.

Charles Mingus - The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady [Order Now] -  Easily one of my favorite albums on the planet and one of the best Jazz albums of all time, this is a must have for me. Long-considered Charles Mingus' masterpiece, The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady represents high-water marks in both jazz composition and orchestration. An essential work in the history of jazz, this extended work has been performed as a ballet and features original liner notes by Mingus' psychotherapist. Verve's Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.
