    This is the double LP set, and it’s what we envisioned from the start as the best way to experience this album. It comes in a gatefold jacket, with an insert and a sticker, all tucked in to a poly bag. Side four (or side Salvage, as we call it) contains a bonus track unavailable anywhere else: our version of Robert Johnson’s “They’re Red Hot.”

lyrics

I gotta laugh while I'm cryin'
to keep from just cryin'
I gotta get out of this hole but I'm dyin'

I took the keys and I followed that dream
straight to the bottom of a ditch
I have no regrets that I know of yet
or is it laurels? I can't remember which

Twenty five degrees, I got a blanket on my knees
and I'm keepin' as cool as I can
The whole town is frozen, our places have been chosen
and I'm sleepin' in the van
