Description
Remastered and expanded edition of the 7th album and final major label release. Includes the Take A Run At The Sun EP, plus never-before-released live recordings. On eye-catching purple vinyl!
Formed in 1984, Dinosaur Jr carved a singular path through the latter half of the 1980s and first half of the 1990s, issuing a number of highly influential albums in the process. Hand It Over, their seventh record, appeared in the spring of 1997 following a lengthy absence, and would prove to be the bands final album-length offering for a decade.
Performed primarily by J Mascis, Hand It Over appeared at a time of declining international interest in American alternative rock, but nevertheless received widespread approval and appreciation amongst critics and reviewers. The album was accompanied, unusually, by an EP of non-album songs recorded for the Matt Dillon movie Grace Of My Heart and, later, a vinyl only Im Insane 7 single, all of which are collected here alongside previously unreleased recordings made on stage in Stockholm and on TV in Australia.
Presented here on purple vinyl, and accompanied by in-depth sleevenotes from Mojos Keith Cameron (based on recent and exclusive interviews with J Mascis), this edition provides a final view of a band about to disappear from the limelight but still as engaging and powerful as ever.
