Aug. 18, as any music fan knows, is the anniversary of one of the most important events in rock history: The 1962 Horticultural Society dance in Birkenhead, England. What’s that, you ask? Well, it was only the day that Ringo Starr played his first gig with The Beatles after a two-hour rehearsal. In other words: It was the true debut of The Fab Four. No big. Speaking of big: After a few quiet weeks, the list of new albums, EPs, singles, box sets, compilations, anthologies, retrospectives, soundtracks, vinyl reissues and cassettes arriving is getting longer again.
