Wilco announces Yankee Hotel Foxtrot 20th anniversary reissues, including 82 unreleased tracks
The multiple reissues of the classic record arrive in September
It’s been a big year for “dad rock” reissues. Pavement recently put out the awaited Terror Twilight reissue, featuring 28 previously unreleased tracks. Now, Wilco has announced various reissues of its seminal album Yankee Hotel Foxtrot for its 20th anniversary, arriving on September 16 via Nonesuch Records.
The Super Deluxe version includes eleven vinyl LPs and one CD with demos, drafts, instrumental versions of the songs, a live album from a 2002 concert recorded at The Pageant in St. Louis, MO, and a 2001 radio performance and interview.
But that’s not even the most exciting part—you can tell that one friend that’s obsessed with Wilco (in case you’re not that friend) that this reissue features a whopping 82 unreleased tracks. No, that is not a typo.
To celebrate the reissue news, Wilco released a live version of “Reservations” from the show at The Pageant.
Wilco is also currently on a short anniversary tour for Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. The first three shows already happened at New York City’s United Palace (where Wilco plays two more shows on April 19 and 20), and also includes three Chicago shows at Auditorium Theatre on April 22-24.
Wilco also performed “Poor Places” off Yankee Hotel Foxtrot on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert recently.
The full list of the reissues and their contents is below.
