Out This Week / on 9 March 2018
Marillion / Brave (reissue)
Marillion‘s 1994 album is given the deluxe treatment. Like Misplaced Childhood this boasts a Steven Wilson 5.1 mix, although at first glance it’s not quite as comprehensive.
Jimi Hendrix / Both Sides Of The Sky
Both Sides Of The Sky is a ‘new’ Jimi Hendrix album. 10 of the 13 tracks featured here are previously unreleased. Available on CD and vinyl LP.
Tom Waits / Closing Time (vinyl reissue)
Tom Waits‘ 1973 debut Closing Time is reissued on vinyl LP. The rest of his 1970s Elektra Asylum releases are set to be reissued ANTI-Records during 2018.

Erasure / World Beyond
A year on from 2017’s World Be Gone, comes this a companion piece – a re-recorded classical version of all the songs on the Erasure album. Sure to match the popularity of Percy ‘Thrills’ Thrillington’s take on Macca’s RAM.
