Bruce Springsteen / High Hopes

The new Bruce Springsteen album doesn’t come as any kind of limited edition box set, but the two-disc deluxe edition looks a cut above the average with a bonus live DVD of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performing the entire Born in the USA album at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London on June 30, 2013 during the historic Wrecking Ball tour. The vinyl version also comes with the CD (but no DVD) which is another option for fans. 

Mark Lanegan / Has God Seen My Shadow? An Anthology 1989-2011

US label Light In The Attic issue highlights from two decades of Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees, Queens of the Stone Age) solo material on a triple LP box set and a two-CD collection. 

Lone Justice  / This Is Lone Justice The Vaught Tapes

Archive recording from the Maria McKee fronted Lone Justice. Recorded direct to 2-track tape in December, 1983 by engineer David Vaught and with no overdubs, the 12 tracks here include nine previously unreleased, alongside a few tracks which would appear on their Geffen debut two years later. Vinyl version also available.

Dan Hartman‘s 1979 album Relight My Fire is expanded to include twelve inch remixes and the original single mix of the title track. 

Vinyl reissue of the mono version of The Zombies’s 1965 debut. This features a newly remastered audio with packaging designed to look like it has ‘survived the decades’! So it’s presented with a “special all round vintage finish, laminated front, foldover flaps and crushed spine”.
