A collection of live recordings from Echo & The Bunnymen will be released on vinyl this spring. It's All Live Now collects several covers Echo performed during a 1985 session for Swedish National Radio, including classics from Velvet Underground, The Modern Lovers, Television, Rolling Stones, and The Doors, as well as two additional songs captured in 1983 in London. The material was previously released as part of the 2001 box set Crystal Days: 1979 - 1999, but this is the first time it's available separately.
It's All Live Now was released digitally and on streaming services earlier this month, and a vinyl edition is planned for June 6th. The limited 180 gm vinyl edition contains new artwork, plus photos and liner notes by Will Sergeant. Pre-orders will remain open through March 31st. Please note: this is a limited pressing, so those interested should pre-order now exclusively through Run Out Groove Vinyl.
