Win Bright Eyes’ The Studio Albums 2000-2011 10LP Vinyl Box Set
Conor Oberst is releasing a new solo album, Ruminations, in a few weeks; a couple weeks after that, Saddle Creek Records will reissue six Bright Eyes albums in a new box set collection called The Studio Albums 2000-2011. True to its title, the set contains the majority of the studio portion of the Bright Eyes canon: remastered versions of 2000’s Fevers And Mirrors, 2002’s LIFTED Or The Story Is In The Soil, Keep Your Ear To The Ground, 2005’s I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning and Digital Ash In A Digital Urn, 2007’s Cassadaga, plus 2011’s The People’s Key, all mastered by engineer Bob Ludwig. The albums are spread across 10 LPs, and will include digital downloads of each record. The set also features twelve 8×10 photo prints by Butch Hogan, and an essay by Oberst’s co-manager and Team Love Records owner Nate Krenkel. The vinyl box set is limited to 5,000 copies.
The set normally retails for $150, but but we’re giving one lucky reader the set for free.
