...First of all, Happy New Year!...We hope you are starting to recharge after the grueling pace or demands of yet another holiday season. Transitioning into the topics at hand, the Cygnus Label seems to opt for quality over quantity (since I cannot even recall when their last release was) and have just announced the January release of RUSH "Masters Of Stockholm" a 2CD with bonus DVD-R that leverages a nice master stereo soundboard recording of their October 27, 2007 concert at Globe Arena in Stockholm. The bonus video component to the set, called "Vanish Into Space", is a nice 160-minute color audience shot source from June 13, 2007 show in Atlanta at the Hifi Buys Amphitheater - some screenshots provided below....
 ...Playing the copycat role this January is Empress Valley with their latest LED ZEPPELIN limited 11CD "Candle Burning" box set that totally mimics the recent (and excellent) deluxe box set from The Godfather Records by packaging up a trio of 1972 U.S. tour stops on the West Coast, here are the breakdowns/particulars for EV's "Candle Burning":
A). Burn Like a Candle (6/25/72 & 6/27/72 Aud Bonus Tracks) 5 CD Ltd Ed Paper Sleeve w/Obi
B). Burn That Candle (6/27/72 Long Beach) 3 CD Ltd Ed Paper Sleeve w/Obi
C). Burned Out Candle (6/28/72 Tucson) 3 CD Ltd Ed Paper Sleeve w/Obi
...New from Langley Deluxe is BLUE MURDER "Innocent Crime" 2CD, which also comes with a bonus DVD-R...the main event audio here is an August 25, 1989 soundboard tape from Nihonseinenkan in Tokyo - the companion video production takes a very good audience shot tape and syncs this soundboard to the video, so that's a nice touch and value for collectors...
   ...In other nice Japanese offerings Darker Than Blue has issued DEEP PURPLE "Long Beach Arena 1971 Complete" 2CD, a complete July 30, 1971 stereo soundboard from that venue - looks great!...On the Shades Label it's WHITESNAKE "Dragonsnake" 2CD, an excellent audience recording of their June 25, 1981 show and Nakano Sunplaza in Tokyo...from Wardour comes JEFF BECK "Definitive Napa" 2CD (below), featuring a remastered audience recording of his show at the Uptown Theater in Napa, California on November 1, 2011...

...Wait!...there's more BEATLES!...this time on Gold CD edition compilations shown above...
THE BEATLES - PLEASE MEET THE BEATLES
Outtakes and sessions from the first and second LP.
From the first chords on September 4, 1962, to Rockband.
157 tracks on 4 discs.
THE BEATLES - A HARD DAY'S NIGHT SESSIONS
Outtakes and sessions from the third LP.
From the first chords on January 29, 1964, to Rockband.
137 tracks on 4 discs.
...There's also these ROLLING STONES compilation on Gold CDs:
THE ROLLING STONES - DISCOVER STONES:
Rare tracks from 1962 - 1969.
104 non-LP tracks on 4 discs.
THE ROLLING STONES - DISCOVER STONES VOL. 2
Rare tracks from 1969 - 1978.
69 non-LP tracks on 4 discs....
...In other ROLLING STONES bootleg fare, the recent - OFFICIALLY released "Brussels Affair '73" from Stonesarchive.com has spawned these latest products...the vinyl/cd set above I can get behind because of the vinyl format ONLY - and I'm not confirming it's sourced from the stonesarchive recordings but the timing sure seems about right to make that initial association....and because of that statement, I cannot get behind the non-label bootleg release below. These soundboard/broadcast releases no longer matter with the official offering, period...
 ...Finally, my apologies for not uploading the narrative to the column last night! In the middle of the proceedings, the flu bug I was trying to stave off all day hit me like a brick wall!...ah, the holidays finally caught up...thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great 2012!
Svengi, January 3rd/4th, 2012
