One of those that I highlighted was the latest from Kings of Leon, a rock band with ties to Oklahoma. Their first album since 2010 and some in-fighting among members is due out next Tuesday, but iTunes has a sneak peek for you. Listen to all of “Mechanical Bull” one week before its release

Speaking of the fall album preview, I have been chastised today for a few omissions, including the latest from Pearl Jam and the Queens of the Stone Age tour stop in Tulsa Oct. 9. What else do you think I missed? There is just a ton of new music coming out and great shows nearly every weekend through the end of the year. What are you most looking forward to?
