Rock Albums Released in November
November has been a good month for rock album releases, often heralding major projects that coincide with the year’s end and holiday season. However, for some records, the exact day of release has been lost to time. During the 1960s and 1970s, when record industry practices were less standardized, albums were frequently distributed over weeks, and precise release dates were not always prioritized. This is particularly true for November, a month when record labels often pushed to capitalize on early holiday sales.
