King Crimson – In the Court of the Crimson King
Weekly Review:
Though only five songs, King Crimson’s debut album has earned a reputation as one of the greatest progressive rock albums of all time. From the proto-metal of “21st Century Schizoid Man” to the renaissance flair of “Talk to the Wind,” In the Court of the Crimson King set the blueprint many other prog acts tried to follow.
Longtime KC devotees now have the chance to experience this classic in a new light. Musician Steven Wilson has earned a solid reputation for remixing classic prog albums, restoring clarity and reducing any recording limitations without diminishing the original elements. Crimson bandleader and guitarist Robert Fripp enlisted Wilson to apply his talents to the band’s earliest albums around the time of the group’s 40th anniversary. Finally, Wilson’s remixes are available on vinyl as individual albums. The vitality of these new mixes depends on your level of fandom, but if it comes down to this new edition and a generously loved used copy, I’d talk to the wind and go for this. -Joel Francis

Neil Young – Homegrown
Weekly Review:
After the success of his classic album Harvest and its No. 1 hit “Heart of Gold” in 1972, Neil Young was at a crossroads. His guitarist and a member of his touring crew had both died from drug overdoses and a longtime romantic relationship ended. Young poured his emotions into two disparate projects. Death got a hard look in the eye on Tonight’s the Night and heartbreak was at the core of Homegrown. Of the two projects, Homegrown was much closer in spirit to the homespun charm of Harvest. This might be why Young released Tonight’s the Night and Homegrown languished in the vaults until now.
Although several songs appeared across Young’s later ‘70s releases, Homegrown is the first chance to hear the dozen songs as Young first envisioned them. The result is this missing link between Harvest and Comes a Time. Not everything works – the spoken word piece “Florida” and lumbering blues of “We Don’t Smoke It No More” stall the album’s momentum – but the rest capture Young in a lyrically vulnerable and musically tranquil state. -Joel Francis
OutKast – Stankonia
Oasis – (Whats the Story) Morning Glory (Remastered)
Phoebe Bridgers – Punisher
Weekly Review:
Indie folk darling Phoebe Bridgers’ second album is an introspective masterpiece perfect for late nights and headphones. “Garden Song” sets the stage with delicate guitars, subtle electronics and double-tracked vocals, but while Bridgers is able to maintain this mood throughout the course of the 41-minute album, it never feels staid or monotonous. The upbeat “Kyoto” bounces with a horn section, while the autotune on “Punisher” makes the lyrics about loneliness seem even more immediate and detached. “ICU” sounds like one of the best Death Cab for Cutie songs in years. The album culminates with the fittingly titled “I Know the End” and a cavalcade of horns, choir, strings and drums that bleed into screams, electric guitar and deep exhalations – a cathartic release of all the emotions Bridgers has been processing throughout the album.
Punisher recalls the lineage of Elliott Smith, Cat Power and early Sufjan Stevens, but Bridgers’ guest appearances with the 1975 and Mercury Rev and projects with Conor Oberst and boygenius reveal a broad talent that should be successful in whatever path Bridgers chooses. I’m happy to follow her on the ride. -Joel Francis
