Stone Temple Pilots‘ third album, Tiny Music… Songs From The Vatican Giftshop will be reissued in the summer as a four-disc super deluxe edition box set.
Released 25 years ago TODAY the album features the singles ‘Big Bang Baby’, ‘Trippin’ on a Hole in a Paper Heart’ and ‘Lady Picture Show’. All three reached the top of Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart (the band never really had any ‘proper’ hits in America, ‘Sour Girl’ from 2000 came closest, peaking at 78 in the Hot 100).
Rhino’s is reissuing the album as a 3CD+vinyl LP super deluxe edition. This includes a newly remastered version of Tiny Music… on CD and black vinyl, 15 early versions/instrumentals/alternates (on CD2) and a complete concert recording from 1997 on the third CD. This gig is the band’s 14 March 1997 concert in Panama City Beach, Florida.
In addition to the super deluxe there will be a two-CD deluxe edition (with CD 1 and CD 2 from the box) and a single CD remaster. There is no standalone vinyl edition.
Tiny Music… Songs From The Vatican Giftshop will be released on 23 July 2021 (was 9 July)
