[tweetmeme]The Pixies will mark the 25th anniversary of their classic sophomore album Doolittle with an expanded 3CD, 50-track reissue this December that will feature, as bonus material, the record’s B-sides, two of the band’s Peel sessions in their entireties, and a full disc’s worth of demos — a collection that will include a total of 21 previously unreleased tracks.
Due out Dec. 1/2 via 4AD, the Doolittle 25 reissue features the full album on the first CD, a second CD featuring the record’s six B-sides plus the seven songs recorded for John Peel’s BBC show during the band’s sessions on Oct. 18, 1988, and May 2, 1989 (two of which are previously unreleased), and a third CD with 22 Doolittle-era demos, 19 of which have never before been released.
The bonus material also will be released digitally, as well as in a 2LP set that includes the B-sides, Peel sessions and some, but not all, of the demos (see tracklists below).
The reissue also features a new sleeve that Vaughan Oliver reinterpreted from his original album artwork and Simon Larbalestier’s photographs, according to 4AD.
The Doolittle 25 reissue can now be pre-ordered directly from the band (with a couple different T-shirt combos), as well as from 4AD, Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk.
