The Coasters were the 1950s' (and early rock's) dominant novelty/comic R&B ensemble, benefiting from Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller's lyrical wit and inspired production. They weren't simply proficient clowns; the Coasters were a skilled vocal unit whose talents were utilized on slice-of-life narratives, prophetic youth manifestos, and even an occasional teen anthem, as well as the prototype humorous vehicles "Yakety Yak" and "Poison Ivy." Although Rhino has already given them the deluxe two-disc treatment, consumers who either don't want that much Coasters material or prefer only the hits are nicely served by this 16-track anthology. It contains every major release, plus valuable lesser-known selections such as "Shoppin' for Clothes" and "What About Us."

On her seventh studio album, P!nk achieves perfection. Featuring contributions from Jack Antonoff and longtime creative partner Billy Mann, Beautiful Trauma is a cathartic and wholehearted fusion of the personal and political. It begins with the piano-driven, Antonoff-produced thrills of the title cut and never wavers—from devastating ballads (“Barbies”) to festival-ready anthems for the disenfranchised (“What About Us”) and a devilish collaboration with Eminem (“Revenge”). The result is pop without filters: bold, frank, beautiful.
