On December 10, Capitol/UMe will release remixed, remastered and expanded 50th Anniversary Editions of The Band’s classic fourth album, Cahoots.
The 50th Anniversary Editions include a multi-format Super Deluxe 2CD/Blu-ray/1LP/7-inch vinyl box set along with digital, 2CD, 180-gram half-speed-mastered black vinyl and limited-edition 180-gram black vinyl packages.
The Anniversary Edition releases were overseen by The Band’s principal songwriter Robbie Robertson and sport a new stereo mix by Bob Clearmountain from the original multi-track masters.
The box set, CD and digital configurations boast a bevy of unreleased recordings. They include Live at the Olympia Theatre concert held in Paris in May 1971, and early and alternate versions of “Endless Highway” and “When I Paint My Masterpiece” along with six other early takes, outtakes, instrumentals, and stripped-down mixes.
Pre-order for the Cahoots 50th anniversary editions is available now at https://TheBand.lnk.to/CahootsPR
The first flavor of the new mix can be heard with Friday’s release of “Life Is A Carnival” (2021 Stereo Mix), streaming now and available for immediate download with digital album pre-order.
