This week’s new releases include the first-ever vinyl pressing of Paul Westerberg’s second solo album ‘Eventually,’ plus new studio records from Missing Persons featuring Dale Bozzio, Laibach and Marc Almond of Soft Cell, plus an expanded reissue of The Blue Nile’s third album.
As we first mentioned last month, Paul Westerberg’s post-Replacements solo debut —1993’s 14 Songs, featuring alt-rock radio hit “World Class Fad” — will receive its first-ever vinyl release next year in an 180-gram pressing similar to the previously announced release of his 1996 follow-up album Eventually.
