Out this week / 12 Nov 2012

Check your calendars! This week sees ‘new’ releases from The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley and The Doors…

The Beatles / Stereo Vinyl Box Set – Did you or didn’t you? It’s certainly a lot of cash, but the fab four’s entire output on heavyweight vinyl, remastered, is very hard to resist. The albums can be bought separately for around £20 each, but you don’t get the nice book that comes with the box. More here.

The Rolling Stones / GRRR! – More monkey business from Jagger, Richards et al. This set comes in a few different editions including the all-singing, all-dancing Super Deluxe Edition Box Set. We have one of the later and will be posting pictures soon. More here.

Elvis / Prince From Another Planet – The Deluxe Edition of this release offers two full sets from The King  – newly remixed – when he played Madison Square Garden in 1972, along with some unearthed Super 8 film of the performance on DVD, sync’d to the audio. More here.

Paul McCartney / Live Kisses Blu-ray – As a big McCartney fan I’m finding it hard to get excited about this release. In fact, I will be receiving a free video download as a ‘thank you’ for being a premium member of Macca’s website (they are closing that service down) so will wait patiently for the Wings Over America reissue! More here.

The Doors / Live at the Bowl ’68 Vinyl Edition – The CD came out three weeks ago, but this week sees the release of the double vinyl version of this live set with restored audio. More here.
