Every
year between September and Christmas record labels bring out their
big guns. You can walk into a record store on any given week during this
time and find an “event” album perched on the new release
shelf. With so much high-profile product from so many artists, it’s
easy for things to get lost in the deluge. With that in mind here is
Audiophile’s abridged fall release roundup. My attempt to highlight
the albums I think you’ll want to know about or should investigate
further. Remember that release dates are subject to change.
