    It's pretty intimate and will be deeply appreciated (especially the outtakes) if you're a fan.

    This is material and history that has already been covered and celebrated by fans and journalists alike many times over. As a vinyl-only reissue, Matador is focused a on a very specific and very curious quadrant of consumers, but those that need what is the first in many likely volumes are assuredly still going to get their money’s worth.

    It’s hard not to be cynical about such repackaging, even if the music within is so special.
