For this heavy duty reissue of Koivistoinen’s 1977 album we went back to the original multitrack tapes and discovered a heap of alternate takes that were left unmixed at the time. Koivistoinen selected the best and most interesting alternate versions of each track and a new, fresh mix was prepared specifically for this release. The first LP in this package is the original studio album (Love Records 1977), remastered for vinyl at Finnvox. The second LP contains the alternate takes, and there’s even a bonus 7″ with two versions of the studio outtake Meat & Potatoes.
Format
Triple fold jacket with new liner notes and photos. Double LP with bonus 7?. Black vinyl, limited to 300 copies.
