Luna Lunafied

American indie-pop band Luna was originally formed in 1991 by singer/guitarist Dean Wareham after the breakup of Galaxie 500. After Wareham quit Galaxie 500 he signed a demo deal with Elektra Records, then recruited Justin Harwood from the Chills and Stanley Demeski of the Feelies, and this line up recorded their debut, Lunapark. After the album’s release, Sean Eden was recruited on guitar and the four piece recorded a number of cover versions that would become the Slide EP. This began the band’s association with successfully recording and playing cover songs.

This brand new ROG collection includes all of Luna’s rare and out of print Elektra-era cover songs - many unreleased on vinyl - on one full length release. Sourced from the original masters with lacquers cut at Sam Phillips Recording Studio, the 2LP set will be pressed on 180g color vinyl at Record Industry in the Netherlands.The set will come in a beautiful numbered gatefold tip-on Stoughton jacket featuring incredible camera obscura photos from Abelardo Morell and original design by Frank Olinsky. It’s a dream come true for Luna collectors.
