Details

A Ghost is Born (Deluxe Edition) is a 9-LP + 4 CD set that features Wilco's 2004 Grammy-winning album alongside alternates, outtakes, and demos, charting the making of the album, plus the complete 2004 concert recording from Boston’s Wang Center and the band’s “fundamentals” workshop sessions. The deluxe box includes 65 previously unreleased music tracks as well as a 48-page hardcover book with previously unpublished photos and a new liner notes by Grammy-winning writer Bob Mehr. A Ghost is Born (Deluxe Edition) is mastered by Bob Ludwig and pressed in Germany by Optimal Media.

“Another engrossing, unorthodox record," said Mojo. "With the low-key yet magnificent A Ghost Is Born Tweedy's offering plenty more reasons to believe in the redemptive powers of Wilco.” "Spectacular," Uncut exclaimed. "Their most engaging album yet."

Release date: February 7th, 2025
