Record is brand new and has never been played.
In 2005 Sufjan Stevens released Illinoise, his fourth album and the second in his 50-state project. Sufjan fans with long memories might recall a minor hiccup in Asthmatic Kitty's release of Illinoise as it related to the inclusion of a certain Metropolis-born man of steel. While the label does love balloons, they've always missed the imminent presence Big Blue brought to the album's cover art, short-lived though it was.
But things are very different in 2016 than they were in 2005, and different times call for different heroes. So exactly ten years after Asthmatic released the double LP of Illinoise, they're proud to announce a special 10th anniversary edition of the LP that includes Chicago-born Blue Marvel on the cover. The double LP will include an "Antimatter Blue" and "Cape White" vinyl colors.
The audio for the special edition comes from a 2014 remastered version of Illinoise. The label has also commissioned children's book artist and the original Illinoise cover artist Divya Srinivasan to portray Blue Marvel in the style of the original art. Pressing is limited to 10,000 worldwide. __________________________________________________ All records are shipped in record-specific boxes with bubble wrap.  Check out my store!
