Last week's top 10 new and at the shops & online at strictlydiscs.com.

After thirteen years of silence from the compound, during which anticipation has grown day by day, Boards of Canada finally return. Inferno retains their signature melodies and atmospheres, drawing on the esoteric influences explored in Societas X Tape (their 2019 NTS mix for Warp Records’ 30th anniversary) and the darker ambience introduced on Tomorrow’s Harvest, further deepened by an expanded role for speech soundbites.
Spanning seventy minutes, the new album is available on special edition limited red translucent 2LP vinyl in triple gatefold sleeve with a 16-page booklet, black 2LP vinyl and CD with 20-page booklet.

1 - Boards of Canada - Inferno - deluxe edition, red vinyl
2 - Paul McCartney - The Boys of Dungeon Lane - indie release party excl. silver vinyl + photo print
3 - Paul McCartney - The Boys of Dungeon Lane - cd
4 - Boards of Canada - Inferno - cd
5 - Kurt Vile - Philadelphia's been good to me - schuylkill river blue vinyl

You never know who will stop into the shop.

Elder millennials will wistfully sojourn the part of their brain that was occupied for years by their 2006 debut album Passover. Lead track Young Men Dead gave the record a buzz reboot in 2014 when it was featured in the series premiere of .

We can’t think of a better home for those Bo Diddley and The Clean records.

This week’s used vinyl drop will include some landmark free-jazz LPs that deserve a longer look. These weren’t albums that broke any sales records; more importantly, they pushed boundaries, inspiring generations of jazz and experimental musicians across the globe. In many cases, these small-run records captured artists whose invention and evolution often took place in the live setting rather than the studio, giving us a rare glimpse of singular moments in jazz history, all these decades later. Here’s ten of ‘em.
We start with a few from the landmark experimental label ESP-Disk’, started by a New York lawyer in the 60s initially to release records in the invented language of Esperanto. A chance encounter with Albert Ayler in Harlem led to the label’s second release, ‘Spiritual Unity’’; its explosiveness immediately changed the trajectory of the label and, many believe, the entire arc of the jazz avant-garde. While never gaining a reputation for paying artists well, the ESP label did provide an early forum to artists like Ayler, Milford Graves, Alan Silva, Roswell Rudd, John Tchicai, and Sun Ra.
We also see some extremely rare releases from players on their own artist-run labels, such as Leo Smith’s Kabell and Bobby Naughton’s Otic, plus essential pieces from foundational spiritual jazz labels like Nessa, India Navigation, and Strata-East. Collected in the main only by obsessives, it is rare to come across so many of these records at once, and in such immaculate shape. Enjoy the artwork and check these out this Friday!

Another delivery of rare and hard-to-find Nigerian LPs begin hitting the Used New Arrival bins this Friday, so why not do a little sneak peek of some of the most impressive album covers we’ve seen so far?

This collection will continue to populate the bins for weeks to come, and covers all bases: plenty of highlife, soukous, and even some seldom seen rumba. Gems from the golden era of Afro-funk and psych turn up alongside all kinds of boogie and disco. Afro-pop classics as well as lesser-seen genres like reggae, gospel, and country, on big labels like EMI, Decca, and Afrodisia, as well as a plethora of small-run obscurities. All ultrasonically cleaned and priced friendly!

Bask in the glory of the album art now, and prepare to dig!
