Speaking of deluxe editions, one of my favourite bands, Pearl Jam, has just re-released their classic album, TEN, in several deluxe edition packages. Features the same cheesey album cover with different colours, the original version of the album, a version of the album re-mixed by Brenden O Brien (who I think produced their best work), a bunch of extra tracks, and the DVD of MTV Unplugged.
There's a super deluxe edition that has a whole crapload of collectibles and yes, vinyl, too.
I'm usually not a fan of re-releases but i'm interested to hear the remixed version and the extra tracks, as well as the Unplugged DVD. The band was heavily involved in the re-release so hopefully its actually worth it and not just a cash grab by the old record company.
Unfortunately no shrooms and cruising in Eddie Vedder's Ferrari are included.
