A slew of fall releases are worth getting excited about.

Another blue-eyed soulster returning for a third go-round this fall is Nikka Costa, with her new album Pebble to a Pearl (Oct. 14). From the sounds of her sassy first single, “Stuck to You,” as well as the fact that Pearl is going to drop on the Stax label, it appears Costa is also going for an old-school vibe on her latest. Well, at least she hooked up with the right people—keyboardist/?uestlove right-hand man James Poyser and legendary drummer James Gadson—for this one.
