LCD Soundsystem to Release Entire Farewell Concert on Vinyl
For Record Store Day on April 19, Followed By Wide Release May 20
Feb 27, 2014
Arcade Fire
LCD Soundsystem‘s final concert at Madison Square Garden in NYC was documented a few years ago in the film Shut Up and Play the Hits. Now, the entire unabridged performance is being released in a 5-LP vinyl box set for Record Store Day, April 19. The Long Goodbye: LCD Soundsystem Live at Madison Square Garden contains nearly four hours of performance, and the box set and digital release will arrive May 20, for those who don’t catch it on Record Store Day.
LCD Soundsystem was one of the most acclaimed and influential acts of the early 21st century, before bowing out on their own terms after three excellent albums. James Murphy and the others have moved on to other projects, but their farewell concert, featuring guest artists like Arcade Fire and Reggie Watts, preserves their legacy.
Watch the band’s performance of breakout hit “Losing My Edge,” from the concert film, below. Pick up The Long Goodbye, out via Warner Bros, on April 19, Record Store Day.
