Jellyfish: Bellybutton and Spilt Milk 2CD deluxe reissues confirmed

Bellybutton deluxe

Jellyfish‘s two studio albums Bellybutton (1990) and Spilt Milk (1993) will be reissued as deluxe editions by Omnivore/Universal in January 2015.

The much-delayed reissues – revealed by this blog back in February – will see both albums expanded to two discs. Bellybutton (which is remastered for the first time) includes 10 live tracks and 16 demos while Spilt Milk (also remastered) comes with a massive 25 demos along with a further 6 live and studio performances. CD 2 from Bellybutton – The Bellybutton Demos – will also be available separately as a digital download package

Although there is nothing previously unreleased, most of these tracks have been hard (or expensive) to get hold of for some time, having formed part of the long-deleted 2002 Not Lame Fan Club box set or dotted about on various UK CD singles issued back in the day.

Both releases feature expanded artwork with photos and memorabilia. Essays from Ken Sharp incorporate new interviews with Andy Sturmer, Roger Joseph Manning Jr., and Jason Falkner from Jellyfish, as well as the albums’ producers. Even better, Sturmer and Manning also provide track-by-track commentary on the original album tracks.

Bellybutton and Spilt Milk deluxe editions are released on 20 January 2015.
