This Week's Interesting Music Releases - September 9, 2016
Allah Las' Calico Review, The Head and the Heart's Signs Of Light, Lucy Dacus's No Burden, Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds' Skeleton Tree, Okkervil River's Away, and Psychic Twin's Strange Diary are all new albums I can strongly recommend this week.
The Beatles Live at the Hollywood Bowl, Prince's Purple Reign in New York, and Jack White Acoustic Recordings 1998-2016 are especially interesting archival releases.
Reissues include a 40th anniversary 4-disc (3-CD, 1-LP box set) remastered and expanded edition of the Ramones self-titled album and a vinyl remastered edition of the Shaggs: Philosophy of the World.
