Deep Dive: Rhett Miller and Old 97’s Re-issues
When a band thrives for 25 years, they amass a treasure trove of unreleased songs. Ultra fans dig the outtakes and demos and previously unreleased live tracks. Omnivore Records re-issued Too Far To Care in 2012.
The double-CD version and vinyl editions include special treats for fans. They even issued a limited edition of translucent yellow vinyl (which I have!).
