With Eric Avery finally back in the fold and a summer trek with Nine Inch Nails in the offing, Jane’s Addiction is returning to record shops this spring — and attempting to atone for Strays — with a 3-CD/1-DVD box set of rarities.
Due April 10, A Cabinet of Curiosities will boast 30 unreleased studio and live cuts from the 1986-1990 period, according to Rhino Records.
The set’s 43 audio tracks include five demos recorded in 1986 at the Radio Tokyo studio in Venice, Calif.; another 12 demos recorded in 1987; various b-sides, compilation cuts and covers; the band’s infamous “Bobhaus” live mash-up (Bob Dylan’s “Like a Rolling Stone” sung over the music of Bauhaus’ “Burning From the Inside”); and a complete live show taped Dec. 19, 1990, at the Hollywood Palladium.
The DVD features “Soul Kiss,” the band’s VHS-only release that featured the “Mountain Song” video that MTV banned, as well as some home movies; six other music videos; and several unreleased performances taped for MTV Italy in 1990.
As is to be expected with a Rhino release, the $74.98 set comes in truly original packaging: a limited-edition wooden cabinet that opens to reveal recreations of early concert fliers, ticket stubs, a set list and other memorabilia.
Rhino also announced this week that on April 19, in honor of Record Store Day, it will issue new 180-gram vinyl editions of the band’s classic albums Nothing’s Shocking and Ritual de lo Habitual.
