DELUXE SETS FROM PETTY AND BEATLES HOLD SURPRISES

Posted in Critics’ Choice: Excerpts from Bud Scoppa’s track-by-track notes to Tom Petty: An American Treasure. The 60-song set is headed for a strong first week in the neighborhood of 35k, evidencing fans’ continuing adoration of Petty, who died on Oct. 2, 2017.

Also, Phil Gallo previews the 50th anniversary expanded edition of The Beatles’ White Album (Apple/Capitol, 11/9), with a focus on Giles Martin's remixes of the 30 tracks. You can't go wrong with either of these sets as Christmas gifts.
