New Releases of Note


This completes the SDE reissues of The Prefab Four’s albums through Present. :cheer:
 
Well, it took 22 years after Volume 1, but Verve-UMG has finally announced Volume. 2 of Jukebox Ella, a collection of singles by an artist known almost exclusively for her albums. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

No "A Tisket, A Tasket"? Harrumph. Let's call the whole thing off.

It's okay. I don't necessarily need to hear ATAT again.
 
Marianne Faithfull - Cast Your Fate To The Wind: The Complete UK Decca Recordings
1766345306865.png
Marianne's official website sez:

Cast Your Fate To The Wind: The Complete U.K. Decca Recordings is the first ever CD boxset of Marianne’s Decca catalogue. The set features all four original albums Marianne Faithfull, Come My Way, North Country Maid and Loveinamist reproduced on miniature facsimile LPs, as well as a further two discs of non-album singles B-sides and rarities. The set has been remastered from the original tapes by the Grammy nominated Andrew Batt who also wrote detailed sleeve notes which Marianne contributed to before her passing in January 2025. The liner notes are reproduced in a luxury 76 page book featuring many rare and unpublished photographs, and the boxset includes five art cards.
 
Recently I bought a nice copy of the original 2 LP set to recapture the experience of this perfectly sequenced album. I’m somewhat ambivalent about loading WOF up with a lot of stray tracks but like it so much that I’ll probably bite.

It's never a good experience when I listen to a legendary album on Apple Music only to find that they've added 10 bonus tracks that are shite, not worth listening to and add 30 minutes to the playing time.
