Indeed it is! On November 6, the world of Omnivore adds the great Bert Jansch to its roster with a beautiful reissue of his 1981 album Heartbreak. Long out of print, we’re bringing it back for its 30th Anniversary in grand style as a limited-edition clear vinyl LP (first pressing of 1,500, black thereafter), a HD digital album and a double CD/double digital album. The second disc in the 2-CD package contains the previously unissued Live At McCabe’s Guitar Shop, a full show from June, 1981. Buy yours here!

She did it all, from stage to screens big and small, but she never had a Christmas album! What?!? No holiday cheer? Do not fear, put on your Santa suit and shimmy down the chimney, as Omnivore Recordings is proud to announce The Edie Adams Christmas Album featuring Ernie Kovacs (1952). Our favorite track? Edie and Ernie duetting on “Silver Bells!” Buy now for everyone on your list who is cool enough to get it.

Let’s just start with a quote from our friend Laurie Pepper, “Art hated the idea that people put jazz in a pigeonhole. He wanted to make people forget the categories and ‘make them open up and listen.’”

Fifteen years have flown by since the Old 97’s major label debut, Too Far To Care, first hit the shelves, and because this record is an Omnivore Recordings favorite, we decided to raise a ruckus for the anniversary in true Omnivore fashion. We expanded the original album to include four session outtakes to release as the first disc of the new 2-CD package. Then, when band gave us access to their pre-Too Far To Care demos, we put those all on Disc 2 of the new edition. Happy anniversary!

Today we’re excited to announce that September 11 we release Rock & Roll Is Good For You: The Fieger/Averre Demos!

If you’re a fan of mid-’70s funk/R&B/soul and jazz, then you’re probably already hip to our Darondo and Two Things In One releases.

The Music City Sessions, Volume 1: Richmond Experience is coming to your turntable August 14. Check out The Music City Sessions page for more details and info one the next two volumes!
