HT faves Widespread Panic embarked on their first-ever all-acoustic tour earlier this year before heading off for an indefinite hiatus. The band has collected highlights from the Wood Tour for a new double-live CD titled Wood that’s set for an October 16th release. Wood will also be released as a 3-LP vinyl box set that same day.

For those purchasing the vinyl set, the Wood release includes 180 gram vinyl, a 12 page photo booklet with liner notes written by Widespread Panic lead singer John Bell and an exclusive limited edition color letterpress poster made at the legendary Hatch Show Print woodblock letterpress shop in Nashville. Both LP and CD packages will include download codes for digital, MP3 versions of the music and booklet.

Highlights include reworked versions of Tall Boy, Ain’t Life Grand and Climb to Safety as well as covers of The Beatles’ Ballad of John & Yoko and Jimmy Cliff’s Many Rivers to Cross, plus a Col. Bruce Hampton sit-in on Fixin to Die. Here’s the Track Listing for the new Widespread Panic release…
