• Track Listing

Six years before "Runaway Train" made ’em stars, Soul Asylum were among the leading lights of Twin Cities punk when they put out this 1986 LP (their second). The Hüsker Dü comparisons continued here, with Bob Mould producing, but a sharp listener could hear Dave Pirner’s songwriting voice flowering across "Tied to the Tracks," "Ship of Fools," "Never Really Been" and more. New art, new notes and rare ephemera from Pirner’s archive join 15 bonus cuts, nine unissued: "Fearless," "Swingin’," "20 Year Itch," "Freeway," "The Snake" and more including alternate versions!
