{"product_id":"concrete-blonde-bloodletting-20th-a-cd-2666312086","title":"Concrete Blonde - Bloodletting: 20th Anniversary Edition [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eBloodletting, Concrete Blonde s third album, gave the band their first mainstream hit, making them one of the most popular alternative rock bands of the early 90s. Featuring guests such as Steve Wynn, Bloodletting was a gothic tapestry of danger, vampires, alcoholism and passion. Hit single Joey reached #19 on Billboard s pop singles chart, and the album was certified Gold. This reissue features a first-time-ever remastering, as well as long out-of-print B-sides. Born out of the early 1980s Los Angeles post-punk scene along with bands such as X, Wall of Voodoo and the Go-Gos, Concrete Blonde got their start as Dream 6 and signed with IRS Records, where labelmate Michael Stipe of R.E.M. suggested they change their name to Concrete Blonde. Their eponymous debut album came out in 1987, and was followed by Free (1989), which spawned the college radio hit God Is A Bullet. First time this album has ever been remastered. Transfers taken directly from the original master tapes. This reissue contains six rarities as bonus tracks: I Want You, the long unavailable B-side of the single version of Joey, other B-sides from the period and a previously unreleased French-language version of the title track. Features a 12-page booklet with lyrics, a new essay and rare photos.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBloodletting (The Vampire Song)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSky Is a Poisonous Garden, The\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaroline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDarkening of the Light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Don't Need a Hero\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDays and Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeast, The\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLullabye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTomorrow, Wendy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Want You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Wing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBloodletting (The Vampire Song) [French Version]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoses Grow - (live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSky Is a Poisonous Garden, The - (live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTomorrow, Wendy - (live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"101","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50558764056872,"sku":"82666312086","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/1662990.jpg?v=1763982998","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/concrete-blonde-bloodletting-20th-a-cd-2666312086","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
