All due respect to the legendary Ozzy Osbourne, this week Black Sabbath is making it sexy with the release of the reissue of MOB RULES and HEAVEN AND HELL. Ronnie James Dio is beaming. Also this week there's some tasty new vinyl from Madlib with SOUND ANCESTORS, along with jazz legend Chet Baker with four releases from Craft Recordings.

In the News:  How about some non-fungible token music? NFT is the latest digital technology. If you know Bitcoin, then you might know blockchain. It's arrived in the music world thanks to Kings of Leon. They're the first to release an NFT via Yellowheart.io.

Coming Soon:  Blackberry Smoke returns with a brand new vinyl release on May 28th, 2021. The album is called YOU HEAR GEORGIA and will also be an Indie Exclusive in your favorite independent record stores. On top of that, it's an ocean-colored vinyl.
