Twin Peaks: Season Two Music and More, the hard-to-get second soundtrack to the ’90s series is honored with a vinyl release on Record Store Day 2019.
UPDATE: The album is getting a standard (re)release on vinyl and CD on June 14, 2019. Get it from Amazon here.
Overseen by David Lynch, Rhino’s reissue on 180g dark green and blue vinyl includes all 24 tracks including gems like I’m Hurt Bad, Night Bells, Hook Rug Dance by Angelo Badalamenti, Hayward Boogie by Alicia Witt, Blue Frank by David Lynch with Fox Bat Strategy, and let’s not forget the infamous Just You, with James Marshall, Sheryl Lee and Lara Flynn Boyle on vocals.
A limited edition of 9,000 copies worldwide coming in a gatefold jacket with a 16-page booklet will be released on Record Store Day 2019 (Saturday, April 13) at $34.98 retail. You can find all participating independent record stores over at the RSD website.
Hat tip to Brad Dukes!
This is the reissue’s new cover artwork as found on the Record Store Day website. Thoughts?
The original Twin Peaks Music: Season Two And More cover from 2007:
The missing piece in the incredibly successful new release and reissue campaign for the Twin Peaks series has been the mysterious soundtrack to Season Two! The TV program aired in 1990-1991, without the traditional accompanying record release, and it was not until 2007 that the soundtrack album was issued, and only as a very limited CD via David Lynch’s own label. And so we have an artifact that has never been available on digital services, and more importantly, never on vinyl, and long gone (and expensive on the secondary market) on CD. And so there is nothing more ready for plugging into the set of Twin Peaks releases from Rhino, especially following on from the acclaimed pair of Season 3 soundtrack albums from 2017! Once again we have David Lynch himself overseeing the reissue, which will duplicate (on CD) the original 24 page collector’s picture book (with full page stills from the series). Plus finally a vinyl issue, . This is a release that will be eagerly embraced by Twin Peaks fans, and a great addition to our much beloved Twin Peaks catalog.

*The two hidden bonus tracks can only be heard by rewinding the first track of the CD.
Does anybody happen to know how limited this is, or if a non-colored varient will be available after RSD?
9,000 colored RSD copies. Will keep you posted!
Do we have a release date for the CD?
Yeah, this is weird… I wrote to Dr. Rhino to inquire about this release on CD and was told as follows:
* We do not have current plans for this release, but thank you for your email and your input.*
( …this, despite Pieter’s posting of a track list, etc. )
I am writing again to inquire a second time and I’ll post anything I learn…
2nd email from Rhino:
Thank you for your email.
I have no further information available.
Stay tuned to Rhino.com for any developments.
Sincerely,
Dr. Rhino
LAME…
