Cheers for that, had no idea. Although i originally read it as SpaceMEN Demo Mixes. Oh well...

Tracklisting doesn't thrill me (I already have the JK tribute album) but i'll try to pick up a copy.

Will the Sad Days Lonely Nights be a straight lift from a comp a decade or more ago? Hope not, that would would be pretty shit on an RSD release which are generally offer priced anyway

Anyone know if this is for the US RSD only? Can’t see it in the UK list.

I wonder if Coming Home Again & Crazy are the same versions as those uploaded to YouTube and aired on various radio sessions around the world. If so, it seems odd that the best track from those sessions, Let It Bleed, hasn’t been included.

Sad Days & Lonely Nights seems a strange choice considering it came out around the Amazing Grace era. Didn’t Iggy Pop play it on BBC6 quite recently? Perhaps that’s got something to do with it.

Thanks for the heads up Jebus.

If this is a US only release, does anyone know of a site that might do online pre-orders and ship to the UK please?

RSD releases aren't allowed to be made available for pre-order, normally they are instore-only on the day then after a certain amount of time (it used to be a week, but I think it was shortened) any remaining stock can be sold online.

If they’re demo mixes I’m totally up for hearing them.

The ‘Sad Days, Lonely Nights’ was an epic thing that came out in 2005 but on Fat Possum’s Junior Kimbrough cover release? Insane guitar work by J. Spaceman on that.

It’s a wild and hot mix anyway, and the end part is 🔥

^^^I suspect this is the case.

As the other thread states; now available for pre-order in official store. With the obligatory outrageous postage.
