One of the most revered, reviled and talked about records in Australian music history, (I'm) Stranded by The Saints finally gets the vinyl box set treatment.
A joint collaboration between long standing L.A garage label In The Red and Universal Music Australia, and spearheaded by Feel Presents and Saints founder Ed Kuepper, the deluxe edition of (I'm) Stranded will feature 4 x vinyl long players covering all the band's studio and live recordings from 1976 thru 1977 and includes;
- The iconic debut album remastered for vinyl for the first time in over 40 years - A five-song live performance from Paddington Town Hall Sydney 3.4.1977 appearing on vinyl for the first time. - A full live performance from the Hope & Anchor Front Row Festival, London November 1977 appearing on vinyl for the first time - All three tracks from the 1977 This Perfect Day 12" single and all four tracks from the 1977 1-2-3-4 double 7" single - The previously unreleased 1976 demo mix of the full (I'm) Stranded album. In addition to all that vinyl (I'm) Stranded deluxe edition will also features a 28 page 12" x 12" photo essay of the band covering their origins from 1973 through the end of of '77, authorised band history, an 8" x 10" 1976 promo photo and a (I'm) Stranded sticker.
"It's been an exhausting yet thrilling process being involved in the creation of this box set. It's been 51 years in the making and has possibly turned out even better than I anticipated. It's by far the most extensive appraisal of the band, both aurally and visually, that has ever been made available and hopefully reveals some things people may not have known about the band." - Ed Kuepper
