About This Item
Chrysalis Catalogue presents 'Copperopolis' on vinyl for the first time, accompanied by a selection of bonus tracks. First released in June 1996, 'Copperopolis' would be the final Grant Lee Buffalo studio album to feature the original line-up of Grant-Lee Phillips, Paul Kimble, and Joey Peters. For 'Copperopolis', the band expanded on the stripped-down sonics from their first two albums, using the studio to create a layered, more powerful sound, as heard on standout tracks 'Arousing Thunder', 'Bethlehem Steel', and the single 'Homespun'. Side four features a trio of bonus tracks, the B-sides 'Crashing At Corona' and 'Mr. Know It All' plus the original four-track demo for 'Hyperion & Sunset'. Newly mastered by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios from the original production masters, pressed on two 180g clear vinyl, and housed in a gatefold sleeve with poly-lined inner bags.
