The roller-coaster is inching upward. We are thisdamnclose to the top of that first giant hill. Before we plunge headlong into the annual freefall of fall releases, enjoy these last moments of relative calm — with the help of the 350 new albums, EPs, singles, box sets, compilations, anthologies, retrospectives, soundtracks, vinyl reissues and cassettes arriving next week.
