Having released arguably more reissues and box sets than any major label in 2025, Rhino has already set sights on their first catalogue title of 2026. Might you be interested? In a word: Yes. Following a deluxe box set of Close to the Edge this past spring, the label will next give the lavish treatment to 1973's Tales from Topographic Oceans. Available February 6, this 12CD/2LP/Blu-ray box set will offer more than a dozen unreleased outtakes and live tracks alongside a suite of new mixes of

Fighting My Way Back: Thin Lizzy Revisit the Mid-'70s on New Box
Thin Lizzy are turning back the clock. Following last year's set 1976 - chronicling the breakthrough albums Jailbreak and Johnny the Fox - the Irish band will, on November 21, release '74-'75, a deep dive into Nightlife and Fighting. The 7CD box set chronicles the making of those two seminal albums which were the first to feature the "classic" quartet line-up with guitarists Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson joining frontman/bassist Phil Lynott and drummer Brian Downey. Nightlife came first
Green Day Re-Live Without 'Warning' on New Box Set
Green Day's sixth album, 2000's Warning, arrived nearly three years after the band's multi-platinum Nimrod. It built on the expansive sound of Nimrod by incorporating even more varied textures drawing on pop and folk styles. Now, 25 years later, Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tre Cool are revisiting Warning in a new Super Deluxe Edition (available on both vinyl and CD) due November 14 from Reprise Records.

I Wanna Be a Rocker: Think Like a Key Premieres "The Shirts Live Featuring Annie Golden"
Think Like a Key Music has been making quite the splash lately with a stellar lineup of releases including Play On: A Raspberries Tribute; Babies of War Babies, a tribute to Daryl Hall and John Oates' adventurous album produced by Todd Rundgren; and titles from psych group Elmer Gantry's Velvet Opera and supergroup British Lions (which teamed members of the post-Ian Hunter lineup of Mott the Hoople with Medicine Head's John Fiddler). Now, the label has turned its attention to a cult-favorite
Review: Frank Zappa, "Halloween 78"
"Happy Halloween, everybody!" Greeting his audience at New York's late, lamented Palladium on October 31, 1978, Frank Zappa promised the enthusiastic crowd. "This is it...this is the big one!" He wasn't kidding. The composer-guitarist and his band - drummer Vinnie Colaiuta, bassists Arthur Barrow and Patrick O'Hearn, keyboardists Peter Wolf and Tommy Mars, singer-guitarist Denny Walley, and percussionist Ed Mann - delivered perhaps the most epic show of their annual New York holiday
Review: Elvis Presley, "Sunset Boulevard"
It was late March 1972 when Elvis Presley first entered RCA's Studio C at 6363 Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood - The King's first time recording at the Hollywood venue. Most of RCA's marquee artists, from Jefferson Airplane to Henry Mancini, had already made their mark there, as the studio had opened in 1964. Presley had previously rehearsed for his Las Vegas engagements in the 32 x 22' space (the smallest of the building's three studios) and now, the March 27-30 sessions would be his first

Memories: Light in the Attic Remasters, Expands Nancy Sinatra's "Nancy"
After a yearlong hiatus, Light in the Attic's Nancy Sinatra Archival Series is continuing on December 5 with an expanded and remastered reissue of 1969's Nancy on both CD and LP. Her sixth and final studio album for the label, the Billy Strange-helmed LP offered a cross-section of rock, pop, soul, and country tunes as only Sinatra could have delivered them. Nancy arrived in the wake of producer-songwriter Lee Hazlewood's unexpected move to Sweden. Hazlewood had produced all of Nancy's
Mellow My Mind: Neil Young Revisits "Tonight's the Night" at 50 with Previously Unreleased Tracks
Neil Young's sixth studio album, 1975's Tonight's the Night, closed out the singer-songwriter's so-called Ditch Trilogy. 1972's country-rock landmark Harvest catapulted Young to superstardom, yielding the chart-topping single "Heart of Gold" and becoming the U.S.' best-selling album of 1972. But he wasn't comfortable with everything that fame brought, and his successive albums replaced the wistful glow and commercial sheen of Harvest with something altogether darker. Tonight's the Night

Rock and Roll All Nite: KISS Suit Up New Deluxe Box for 'Dressed to Kill'
KISS' third album - the edge of their commercial breakthrough - is getting done up to the nines for its 50th anniversary. The rock legends will reissue Dressed to Kill as a super deluxe set, available exclusively through the band's official store on five CDs or eight LPs and a Blu-ray. The 1975 release, featuring "C'mon and Love Me" and, arguably the group's signature song "Rock and Roll All Nite," has been newly remastered by Bernie Grundman and, on the Blu-ray, remixed from the original
Ants Invasion: Sony U.K. Plans New Singles Set for Adam Ant
Here's your pass to join the insect nation: Sony Music's U.K. arm is releasing a new compilation devoted to post-punk heroes Adam and The Ants. The simply-titled Singles, available October 31 in the U.K. and a week later in America, collects 20 tracks on CD or two LPs (pressed on red and white vinyl) that served as A-sides for the '80s iconoclast. Split about evenly between the classic Ants lineup and Adam's solo material, it features all the classics you'd expect, from "Kings of the Wild
Baby's Got a Secret: Madonna Expands 'Bedtime Stories' with 'Untold Chapter' EP

Bedtime Stories - The Untold Chapter, available November 28, will offer eight remixes, demos and outtakes from the Queen of Pop's sixth album, originally released in 1994.

Pack Up Your Sorrows: Judy Collins' "The '60s Singles" Arrives in December from Real Gone Music, Second Disc Records
It's no exaggeration to state that Judy Collins transformed the sound of folk music. With a crystalline voice and a songbook blurring traditional genre lines, the Seattle native came to prominence in the fertile Greenwich Village stomping grounds of New York City. The luminous Collins - a classical piano prodigy, talented guitarist, gifted adapter and later, songwriter, and singer with a three-octave range - signed with Jac Holzman's Elektra Records in 1961 and remained an Elektra artist for
