Album Info

Release Date: 2016-04-16

Labels: Fire Records, Fire America

From Fire Records website:

"The complete A-Z of Giant Sand will be released alphabetically rather than chronologically, highlighting the careening career and wandering muse of Howe Gelb and his assembled sun blasted slingers. The final volume will bring all three volumes together and include an album of bonus material and an exclusive book on the band and their history.

As a parting farewell gift, Fire Records will release a dreamy three volume box set of vinyl entitled; “The Sun Set”. Limited to 2000 copies of each box.

This first volume is released 16th April for Record Store Day 2016 on Fire Records.

Volume One:
Ballad of a Thin Line Man (1986) 1LP
Blurry Blue Mountain (2010) 1LP
Center of the Universe (1992) 1LP
Chore of Enchantment (2000) 2LP
Glum (1994) 1LP
Goods and Services (1995) 2LP

The hardboard slipcase box set contains six albums across eight 12” vinyl and features extensive and entertaining liner notes from Howe Gelb himself."
