My Morning Jacket - The Tennessee Fire: 20th Anniversary Edition - Includes 16 previously unreleased bonus tracks selected by Jim James. 2xCD in six panel double digipak: Disc one is the original debut album. Disc two features all 16 bonus tracks on perfect sound forever physical CD format! Digipak features previously unseen early band photos. In February, 1999, Darla Records received a charming Valentine's Day love letter with artwork and 4-track cassette tape demo in the mail from Jim James with the very first My Morning Jacket recordings. Early one Sunday morning, I popped the tape in and fell instantly in love. I could not find the accompanying letter with contact info! Chandra soon found it after I raved at her that she must get out of bed come hear what I was hearing. I called Jim and we began to plan the work. Weeks later, after we'd established a track list, including four songs re-recorded in a real studio, and had artwork together for a debut album, I thought to myself, "I really love this. There's nothing like it in the marketplace. I hope it can sell 1500." And the rest is history. - Mr. Darla
