Good news : my blue version is on the way and will be here Monday. better news : currently listening to the outtakes Side 2 and was floored by the early take of leave me like you found me. Love it so much.

I got the black version as well. You may have seen my post on shot in the arm. Only listened to out takes 1 so far .. and the biggest surprise was probably Panthers. As much as love the original bside , I think I like this more percussion heavy version. Really cool outtake

What is “White wooden cross” ? Is that a new Wilco song?

My local store is getting 4 copies. That’s probably enough. But I’m freaking out a bit. I’m about 40 mins from the store...so I’ll need to get up super early.

In this case I agree with the OP. It’s one thing to not include one on a regular priced LP, but on a Deluxe Box Set that costs much more than the Cd or Web versions , and is also missing 90 mins of content, is a bit shrewd. They could at least include a download to just the missing content. That way you aren’t paying more for less content.

I worked at a record store when Being There came out, and I remember it grew quite the following early on amoung the college crowd. Being a double album for the price of a regular album actually made it a pretty big selling point back then. I even remember the promo sticker advertising “2 CDS for $12.99!”. That’s actually what caught my eye initially. I’m actually surprised the original pitchfork review was so cold towards it. Then again this was Chicago and I think expectations were pretty high at the time.

He’s the whole package. A legend.

New Tweedy record coming soon? Feels like something is coming.

Really impressed with both deluxe editions. The Being There deluxe especially. I hope they do this to ALL of their albums. I will re-buy all of them if the content is this rewarding. Biggest surprise is how much I like the original version of Capitol City more than the version on Whole Love. For a song they rarely play live, this version would work really well during an acoustic set.

I love that there is no banter on night 1. It's basically a live version of the albums with little to no interruption.

So I don't want to seem nit picky but I'm pretty unimpressed with the overall "vinyl package" for the standard vinyl. No linear notes, no download card, and a rather flimsy jacket that has already cracked on the spine. Everything about it feels low budget. At least compared to the other Wilco releases I have on vinyl. If you're going to charge us $20+ please put a little more effort into it. /rant

Just curious what everyone's thoughts were

I'm so envious of you folks that got to see this. What an amazing set!

Just watch that F bomb!

No download card in the vinyl. Which is really lame. Since I ordered from Bull Moose, I won't be getting a download from Kung Fu. I have been buying most of my vinyl off Amazon, as almost anything you buy gets transferred to your Amazon Prime Music account. Sadly Amazon cancelled my order... Oh well. At least it's on Spotify...
