Howe Gelb / Little Sand Box

box

Fire Records are to issue Little Sand Box, and eight-disc box set featuring the solo work of Giant Sand frontman Howe Gelb, in December.

The collection will feature all of the Tucson based musician’s six commercially released solo albums, including the acclaimed Sno Angel Like You from 2006. Each album will come with bonus tracks and two further discs complete the set; a selection of piano pieces entitled Some Piano and the Sno Angel Winging It live CD. Liner notes from Gelb himself are included within the booklet.

Judging from the image above the box looks like a decent quality affair with a ‘drawer’ as used in Japanese sets. CDs packaged in digi-packs. The albums in the Little Sand Box are as follows:

  1. Dreaded Brown Recluse
  2. Hisser
  3. Confluence
  4. The Listener
  5. Sno Angel Like You
  6. Sno Angel Wingin’ It
  7. Alegrias
  8. Some Piano

Little Sand Box is released on 2 December 2013.
