Everybody loves NRBQ. Even if they don’t know it. Last year’s High Noon — A 50-Year Retrospective boxed set was adored by fans and critics alike, and served as an introduction to new fans in, er—queue to discover more. Now, in a special release for Record Store Day, the 5-CD collection has been distilled down to a double LP, with some surprises . . .
High Noon -- A 50-Year Retrospective (Update) is a special distillation of the CD boxed set and has been assembled for Record Store Day 2017. Complied by arQive 50 Research and Grammy winning producer Cheryl Pawelski, it’s full of highlights and rarities from the group’s five-decade career. Plus, a previously unissued, live take of “Keep This Love Goin’” makes its first appearance anywhere.
The double album is packaged in a full-color gatefold, with photos from throughout the band’s history. High Noon — A 50-Year Retrospective (Update) is a perfect primer for the uninitiated, a necessity for the faithful, and another way for everybody to experience the magic that is NRBQ!
