VIA PRESS RELEASE | Before we drift into Fall, there’s a Summer(teeth) update we think you’re gonna like.
Wilco’s third studio album, Summerteeth, will be expanded and back in stock Nov. 6. That’s right: we dug deep into the archives to create a Deluxe Edition of Summerteeth. The 5-LP / 4-CD set includes the original album remastered and is full to the brim with previously-unreleased live tracks, outtakes and demos. It’s available to preorder now in all formats and on all platforms. In The Wilco Stores we’ve got black vinyl, exclusive color vinyl, CD, and digital, plus hats and shirts to match! If Amazon, iTunes, or Spotify is more your speed, we’ve got you covered. Wherever you choose to pre-order, you’re gonna receive an instant download of “Summer Teeth (Slow Rhodes Edition)” to whet your appetite.
The five-LP set features Bob Ludwig’s 2020 remastered studio album as well as the unreleased demos, alternates and outtake recordings pressed on 180-gram vinyl. However, instead of the Colorado concert included in the CD package, the LP version contains a special, exclusive performance from early 1999 titled, An Unmitigated Disaster, a previously unreleased live in-store performance at Tower Records on March 11, 1999, just two days after the album was released. The 10-song set, which was broadcast on Chicago radio station WXRT-FM, highlights several tracks from Summerteeth (“We’re Just Friends,” “How To Fight Loneliness” and “Can’t Stand It”). This show will only be available in the LP collection.
All versions of Summerteeth: Deluxe Edition – Black Vinyl, Color Vinyl, CD – are designed by original Summerteeth art director Lawrence Azerrad. The iconic cover art is revisited and reimagined with deluxe treatments, including metallic foil packaging. Liner notes are written by MOJO editor John Mulvey and include new interviews with original band members, Jeff Tweedy and John Stirratt.
