Merle Haggard, “The Bluegrass Sessions” (McCoury)
Early reviews say it’s not bluegrass in the traditional sense, but it is Haggard’s first run at the genre.
Pink Floyd, “Piper at the Gates of Dawn” (Capitol)
This 40th-anniversary reissue includes mono and stereo mixes, rarities, outtakes and loads of context.
The Sadies, “New Seasons” (Yep Roc) This Canadian outfit of indie-leaning traditionalists blurs the dates on the calendar, sounding at once classic and refreshingly new. -John Wenzel
