Folk rock releases, week 40

This week in folk rock, commemorations and reissues highlight enduring legacies, from R.E.M.'s 'Reveal' 25th anniversary release with rare live recordings to the 20th anniversary of The Decemberists' 'The Crane Wife' and Beck's 'The Information.' New music emerges with Father John Misty's 'The X-panded Universe,' Bonnie 'Prince' Billy and Linus's tribute to Jules de Corte, and Emma Ruth Rundle's 'These Killing Times.' Meanwhile, archival performances like Jethro Tull's 2008 Baloise Session and Neil Young's 'Soon I Might Be Going' offer fresh access to past moments.
