July 10 is a big day for birthdays: Gospel legend Mavis Staples turns 83, second-generation folk hero Arlo Guthrie hits 75, Pet Shop Boys’ Neil Tennant turns 68, banjo virtuoso Béla Fleck is 64, singer Imelda May is 48 and late metal god Ronnie James Dio would have been 80. If all that doesn’t give enough options for your Sunday playlist, perhaps you can find some options among the nearly 300 new albums, EPs, singles, box sets, compilations, anthologies, retrospectives, soundtracks, vinyl reissues and cassettes arriving next week.
