Stone Temple Pilots: Purple (Box Set)

$110.99

3CD+LP set features remaster plus host of unreleased audio

Stone Temple Pilots are to reissue their 1994 album Purple as a four-disc super deluxe edition.

The 3CD+LP package includes a newly remastered version of the original studio album on both CD and vinyl, plus unreleased versions of album tracks and rarities, along with an unheard full concert recording from 1994.

The band’s second long-player, Purple gave the Scott Weiland-fronted combo a number one album in the states, selling over six million copies, as well as a top ten placing in the UK. Produced by Brendan O’Brien, it featured the singles ‘Big Empty’, ‘Interstate Love Song’ and ‘Vasoline’. Purple saw the band still primarily routed in the grunge sphere, while adding new elements of psychedelia and country into the mix.

Among the bonus content, this new edition explores the making of the album with a mix of unreleased music that includes demos (‘Unglued’ and ‘Army Ants’) and early versions of album tracks (‘Meat Plow’ and ‘Interstate Love Song’), plus acoustic recordings (‘Big Empty’).

The second CD of the collection also features three unreleased live performancesfrom the 1994 KROQ Acoustic Christmas show, including a version of ‘Christmastime Is Here’ from A Charlie Brown Christmas. There is also the previously unreleased demo of ‘She Knows Me Too Well’, a song the Beach Boys originally recorded in 1965.

The third disc also has the full, previously unreleased August 23, 1994 concert from New Haven, Connecticut, a 17-song set featuring both electric and acoustic sets, including ten songs from Purple along with hits from their debut Core (‘Plush’ and ‘Sex Type Thing’) and some covers.
