Start spreading the news: Frank Sinatra died 25 years ago today (May 14) in 1998. Along with Old Blue Eyes, old bluesman B.B. King also passed away on this date in 2015. And because bad news comes in threes, this is also the day in 1976 when former Yardbirds singler Keith Relf was electrocuted while tuning an ungrounded guitar at his London home. On the happier side of the birth/death equation, Black Keys singer-guitarist Dan Auerbach turns 44 today, Cult singer Ian Astbury is 61, David Byrne is 71 and Cream bassist Jack Bruce would have been 80. While you mark/mourn those occasions, peruse the 370-some new albums, EPs, singles, box sets, compilations, anthologies, retrospectives, soundtracks, vinyl reissues and cassettes arriving soon:
