Limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies on turquoise coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. All 11 songs on Under The Big Black Sun are exceptional, from both a performance and compositional point of view. Before the recording of the album, singer Exene Cervenka's sister was killed by a drunk driver, and the band decided to work out their grief in the music, which eventually resulted in two of the album's best tracks: the melodic "Riding With Mary" and the vintage '50s sound of "Come Back to Me". The record was produced by Ray Manzarek, who is best known as the co-founder of The Doors.
