Vaunted Nineties hip-hop group A Tribe Called Quest, whose five albums blending jazz and rap set a sonic template that continues to reverberate and influence today, will kickstart a massive reissue campaign on November 13th with the re-release of their groundbreaking 1990 debut Peoples' Instinctive Travels And The Paths of Rhythm.

The re-release will feature new remixes by as-yet-unnamed artists and will be remastered by Bob Power, the engineer best known for his work with D'Angelo and the Roots who worked with Tribe on the group's first three albums. A complete list of remixes will be announced in the coming weeks.

On October 2nd, the Fab Four alum will be reissuing his fourth and fifth solo records, Tug Of War and Pipes Of Peace, each with remastered recordings and a grip of bonus material that should keep the devout McCartney fans busy well into the new year. And as an added gift from him to you, he’s dug deep into the vault and unearthed some archival footage that details some of his most cherished collaborations. (source: OKP)

Brenda Russell - BBR expanded remaster of TWO EYES (1983)

.

I really like Brenda Russell's "Two Eyes" album. This will be the third CD pressing after the original Japanese CD and David Nathan's Spy Records remaster in the early 2000s. I wonder what the bonus tracks with be as I think there was only a short remix of the title track from that era that I haven't heard before.

.

This is Brenda's only Warner album and looking at discogs she was actually guest vocalist on quite a few albums during this time:

.

"Top Secret" from The Yellowjackets ‎album "Mirage À Trois" - Warner Bros. Records ‎– 9 23813-1 - 1983
.
"Men And Women" and "Tip Away" from the Sadao Watanabe album "Maisha" - Elektra ‎– 32XD-4 - 1985
.
"When I Give My Love To You" from Michael Franks album "Skin Dive" - Warner Bros. Records ‎– 9 25275-1

.

If BBR were able to secure all of these bonus tracks along with the "Two Eyes" remix then I will probably buy this reissue. There's a lot more possibilities than I thought!

Not the truly expanded reissue I was hoping for but here is the track listing for Evelyn King's "Flirt", available November 13 courtesy of Caroline/Soulmusic.com. Thankfully, it will include the ultra rare remixes for "Kisses Don't Lie".

talk about being geedy...

Sam Smith has just announced that he is re-releasing his award-winning (and chart-topping) debut album In The Lonely Hour as the new, double-disc set In The Lonely Hour: The Drowning Shadows Edition -- a move that he calls his "final bow" before his second album.

The release's second disc will be filled with one-off tracks and covers, as well as a brand-new song called "Drowning Shadows." Produced by frequent Smith collaborators Jimmy Napes and Steve Fitzmaurice, "Drowning Shadows" is "a stripped back, heart-wrenching ballad" per the press release (would you expect anything less?).

Also included are covers of Amy Winehouse and Whitney Houston, as well as Smith's collaborations with Mary J. Blige, Disclosure, and more.

Universal Music will release a standalone twelve-inch vinyl of Queen‘s classic 1975 single Bohemian Rhapsody later this month.

This 40th anniversary release is due on ‘Black Friday’ and it is the first time the song has been available on 12-inch vinyl, although a similar twelve-inch is featured in the super deluxe edition of the A Night at the Odeon which is slated for release a week earlier.

The key difference is that the B-side to this standalone twelve-inch is I’m In Love With My Car, whereas the record in the box set features a previously unreleased soundcheck of Now I’m Here on its flipside.

Availability of this Bohemian Rhapsody single is currently limited, although you can pre-order now from Amazon Italy.

The Bohemian Rhapsody twelve-inch is released on 27 November 2015.

I hear she's asking for too much money for the last 5 albums to be reissued. that's why we haven't seen them. It's not because she doesn't want them reissued.
