This comprehensive legacy collection brings together their three long out-of-print albums, plus rarities, and previously unreleased demos and live tracks, in a stunning 8-panel digipak with 24 page booklet with notes by producer Pat Thomas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 3CD deluxe digipak set includes all three of the band's long out-of-print studio albums (\u003ci\u003eHollywood Holiday, Drifters, Hand of Fate\u003c\/i\u003e) and is the first time on CD for \u003ci\u003eHand of Fate\u003c\/i\u003e (with 3 non-LP Bonus Tracks), plus six previously unreleased demos for the third album that never was.

While often lumped together by journalists with the PU, True West blazed their own trail of two guitar prowess that brought them to the attention of Television's Tom Verlaine who produced three tracks for them at upstate NY's Bearsville Studios. By summer 1985, the band had toured Europe with cover stories in NME, Melody Maker, and Sounds. They joined R.E.M on the Western U.S. and Canada leg of the \u003ci\u003eFables of the Reconstruction\u003c\/i\u003e tour, returned home to record demos for a third album that never happened as planned as guitarist\/songwriter Russ Tolman left the band. True West soldiered on without Tolman, releasing \u003ci\u003eHand of Fate\u003c\/i\u003e in 1986.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bring Out Your Dead","offers":[{"title":"CD | x3","offer_id":50507332387147,"sku":"1131945","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/bd23f64a-68de-4570-ab1b-f218b9d9a1f3_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727847422"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/collections\/bring-out-your-dead.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
