News: LCD Soundsystem – The Long Goodbye

On July 7 LCD Soundsystem announced that The Long Goodbye will be re-released, and, for the first time ever, on CD as well.

LCD Soundsystem - The Long Goodbye 2021 CD version (dfarecords.com)

“The Long Goodbye…” is the complete, unabridged recording of LCD Soundsystem’s April 2, 2011 “farewell” show at New York’s Madison Square Garden.

Spanning 3 hours of music across 28 songs, this remains the band’s lengthiest, most career-spanning show to date, with the core live band of James Murphy, Pat Mahoney, Nancy Whang, Al Doyle, Gavilán Rayna Russom and Tyler Pope joined by a choir, string and horn sections — plus special guest performances including Win Butler and Regine Chassagne of Arcade Fire, Reggie Watts, the Juan MacLean, Shit Robot, Planningtorock, and Shannon Funchess of Light Asylum.

To celebrate the event’s 10th anniversary, we’ve partnered with Parlophone / Warner Music to repress this release in its original 5xLP configuration as well as a brand new 3xCD edition (because why not).
