GUADALCANAL DIARY

8/25/04 • Rhino Handmade has done it again with an awesome deluxe edition of 2X4 on CD. This expanded, remastered Rhino Handmade release presents 2X4 in its entirety, plus 11 previously unreleased bonus tracks, including outtakes from the album sessions and demos recorded in 1985-86. 2X4 is available as an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies.

11/03/03 • Rhino Handmade has released the definitive version of "Walking in the Shadow of the Big Man" as a deluxe limited edition CD. This expanded, remastered Rhino Handmade release features Walking In The Shadow Of The Big Man in its entirety, plus the Watusi Rodeo EP and the previously unreleased "Just An Excuse" and the live b-side "Johnny B. Goode." Murray and the band were involved in this re-issue and the sound is better than the previous versions. Walking In The Shadow Of The Big Man is available as an individually numbered limited edition of 2,500 copies. To order visit RhinoHandmade.com.

4/26/03 • There are plans in the works to release definitive versions of each of the four original Guad albums in a Deluxe CD reissue. Each CD should include new liner notes with input from the band, bonus tracks, outtakes, live cuts, etc. Hopefully these will come out later this year. The Deluxe Editions will be a must for fans. We will post more news as we get more details about them. (Please Note: The reissues on Collectables do not contain any extra tracks nor a collectors booklet with comprehensive liner notes. Also the Rhino Handmade releases sound much better.)
