This week’s new releases include the U.K. edition of ‘Intriguer,’ Crowded House’s second post-reunion album; ‘Something for Everybody,’ Devo’s first new album in 20 years; ‘Close-Up Vol. 1: Love Songs,’ a disc of Suzanne Vega re-recordings; and the reissue of The Dream Syndicate’s ‘Medicine Show.’
The Dream Syndicate’s long-out-of-print sophomore album ‘Medicine Show’ will be reissued this spring in remastered and expanded form, and to mark the occasion, former frontman Steve Wynn will perform the record and its predecessor, ‘The Days of Wine and Roses,’ in their entirety at a pair of Atlanta concerts.
