Numbered, Limited Edition 180g Vinyl 4LP Box Set!
Mastered by Chris Bellman and Pressed at Pallas!
Alpha Mike Foxtrot: Rare Tracks 1994-2014 is a 180g Vinyl 4LP box set of rare studio and live recordings collected from Wilco's extensive audio archives. The album is produced by Grammy-nominated producer Cheryl Pawelski, co-founder of Omnivore Recordings, whose credits include Big Stars Keep an Eye on the Sky, The Bands A Musical History and Townes Van Zandts Sunshine Boy: The Unheard Studio Sessions and Demos 19711972.
This is the first time any of Wilco's music has been compiled.
Like a lot of fans, I had collected these straggling tracks over the past two decades of following Wilcos every move, Pawelski said. Alpha Mike Foxtrot includes almost every unique, essential performance that appeared on soundtracks, tribute albums and B-sidesand there are probably a few surprises for even the sharpest collector. This set presents an alternate history of the band, kind of a sideways view, and ultimately, its a super-fun listening experience.
Alpha Mike Foxtrot features liner notes that include track-by-track recollections from Tweedy, notes by band members Nels Cline and John Stirratt, and reflections from members of Wilcos extended professional family. The booklet also showcases archival and never-before-seen photos from a wide array of photographers chronicling all phases of the bands career.
