THIS WEEK’S RELEASES

Cher Dancing Queen Out Friday ★★★★★

A Cher album of Abba songs is an obvious tie-in with her showstealing cameo in Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again. The choices are obvious – Dancing Queen,

SOS and so on – and except for a mournful One Of Us and a bit of Cher’s trademark Auto-Tune, the arrangements are familiar too. Here, Cher does exactly what Cher does best.

Tom Petty An American Treasure Out Friday ★★★★★

Not a greatest hits set but not quite a rarities box either, this, almost a year after Petty’s death, is a musical portrait running chronologically across four discs. With album tracks, live versions and previously unheard tunes, it charts how a skinny Florida boy and his friends became a peerless American rock’n’roll band.
