Well, we’re over the hump. Record Store Day Black Friday is in the rearview. The holiday shopping season has begun. And most of the major music releases have arrived. Granted, there are always a few stragglers and folks who want to arrive fashionably late. And there are plenty of box sets, anthologies, reissues, live albums and vinyl editions for the music lover on your list. All told, there are more than 130 albums, EPs and singles arriving over the next few days. Or, as I like to call it, a light week. Here’s what to expect. As always, don’t blame me if things change at the last second:
