Primal Scream are now set to release a limited 30th anniversary edition of ‘Loaded’ exclusively for this year’s Record Store Day on April 18th. The release features the EP’s original tracklisting on 12 inch, 180 gram black vinyl with extended artwork and a gatefold sleeve.
The AA-side of the EP opens with ‘I’m Losing More Than I’ll Ever Have’, a track that producer Andrew Weatherall reconstructed ‘Loaded’ from, and which featured on the band’s self-titled album from 1989. The EP is completed with a frenetic live recording of ‘Ramblin’ Rose’, which feels closer to MC5’s frenzied version rather than the original rock ‘n’ roll song recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis.
The tracklisting is:
A: ‘Loaded’ (Andrew Weatherall Mix)
AA1: ‘I’m Losing More Than I’ll Ever Have’
AA2: ‘Ramblin’ Rose (Live in NYC)
