BOTTLE ROCKETS CD SET YOU TRULY NEED

Bloodshot Records is releasing a great music package on November 19th that any true music lover will enjoy. The Bottle Rockets hit the music scene in the early 90's. Their style was unlike any other, and soon garnered a large following mostly by word of mouth...and other artists who knew a good thing when they heard it. This deluxe two CD set containing digitally remastered and expanded editions of the Roots Rock band's seminal releases The Bottle Rockers (1993) and The Brooklyn Side (1995). The package includes 19 previously unreleased tracks from the era these original recordings were made, along with an exhaustive 40 page booklet detailing the band and the scene, at the time. Both albums (including all 19 bonus tracks) have been painstakingly remastered by famed producer and musician Eric "Roscoe" Ambel.
This is a vast collection of music that needs to be heard. Brian Henneman's versions of "Indianapolis" and "Thousand Dollar Car" have long been among my favorites. With this release you get acoustic and full band versions of select songs...which allows you to dig deeper and hear the true roots of this legendary music.
The Bottle Rockets have been compared to ground breaking alt-country groups such as Uncle Tupelo, Whiskeytown, or Drive By Truckers. However, I truly feel that comparison falls short of what the Bottle Rockets accomplished during these times. Their music had much more depth, diversity, and true life within it.
You get it all here...from acoustic...to alt-country...to even a Jim Morrison/Jimmi Hendrix/The Doors full out blitz. Attempting to fully review such a release here is unfair. This is a plethora music that deserves to stand on its own and be heard...and enjoyed. Trust me...you will fully.
