Sean Ono Lennon and Yoko Ono Lennon, in conjunction with Mercury Studios and Universal Music Recordings (UMR), have finally answered a decades-long fan request for release of the One To One Concert, a pair of benefit performances at Madison Square Garden in New York City held in the afternoon and evening of August 30, 1972. Long bootlegged, this new release — now officially named Power to the People, in celebration of the Ono-Lennons’ inspiring and tumultuous political activist years in NYC, and officially credited to John & Yoko / Plastic One Band — appears in multiple formats, including a 180g 4LP box set. Read Mark Smotroff’s review to see if the 4LP Power box set is worth the entry fee. . . John Lennon

My fellow analog audiophiles, take note — we are now all members in good standing in a newly spelled subset called vinylphyles. Vinylphyles, of course, have the same, er, obsessive-about-SQ-on-wax laser-focus as we do — and we can credit UMe for coming up with that double-y sobriquet, which also happens to serve as the name of their exciting new reissue program. Read on to see which four titles are coming out on November 14, 2025, that will inaugurate this all-important AAA series. . .

Three years into his by-then-annual, highly anticipated Halloween concert celebrations, guitarist, composer, and all-around music icon Frank Zappa pulled out all the stops as a very big “thank you” to his New York audiences in October 1978, delivering an epic, nearly four-hour performance for the ages. The full show has finally been released by Zappa/UMe as a 5CD uber-deluxe box set for the true Zappaphiles amongst us — but there is also a companion, readily digestible, and equally tasty abbreviated 180g 2LP collection for one and all, Halloween 78 Highlights: Live at the Palladium, New York, which was released on October 24, 2025. Read Mark Smotroff’s review to see why Halloween 78 is worth spinning, posted here just in time to help us all finish out our aural enjoyment of this most spooktacular holiday. . .

Well, it’s one for the money (pause), two for the show (pause) . . . and I bet you know the rest. Seeing how we’re fast approaching the 70th anniversary of the song those opening lines adorn — Carl Perkins - King Of Rockabilly’s perennial rockabilly classic, “Blue Suede Shoes” — the timing couldn’t be any better for an audiophile-centric reissue of this January 1956 single. To that end, Intervention Records have just announced that the first vinyl release in their new Intervention Sun Records Hi-Fi Series will be the album that “Blue Suede Shoes” ultimately landed on — 1957’s Dance Album of Carl Perkins — and it’s expected to ship in December 2025. Read on to see how the historically important AAA 180g 45rpm mono LP Dance Album reissue came to be. . .
