Primal Scream-Come Together (Personal Favorite) (Screamadelica Reissue)

Good Monday! Why not start the work week with off that makes you want to high five, hug or just give the guns to anyone you see. Let's get a little Primal Scream pumped into the veins. Their most acclaimed album "Screamadelica" was the hallmark album of house music, dub, ambient house, freewheeling alternative dance music from the early 90's. A fusion of wonderful. And "Come Together" is one of its centerpieces, a joyous epic of good vibes and unification with chemicals being spit out of every chord change and added instrument. I love it either in its American mix or UK mix (I included the US mix here because it's obviously what I've been accustomed to since picking up the album years ago). Like the best moments on "Screamadelica", it's a song playing in an otherworldly zone. 

Speaking of this landmark album, it will be celebrating its 20th anniversary this year and the band is releasing "Screamadelica: Collector's Edition Boxset". According to rockedition.com, the boxset will not only include the CD but also as a gatefold double LP. Additionally, it will include a remastered version of the ?Dixie-Narco? EP, a disc containing a live performance from Los Angeles in 1992, a disc of remixes, a 30-minute documentary DVD: The Making of Screamadelica, a 12? slipmat, a Primal Scream replica tour t-shirt, an assortment of art cards and a 50-page commemorative bound book featuring interviews with the band, unseen images and more. That is the kitchen sink. If you've loved "Screamadelica" for years upon years, then this is probably a purchase you will want to look into. If not, its an album from the 90's you should probably still pick up anyways. As of now, its not going to be available in the states just yet, but the UK can cherish it with its proper release on March 7th.

Also, did you know that "Screamadelica" was one of ten classic album covers chosen by Royal Mail for postage stamps last year? It's amazing the things you can learn on a Sunday night.

Anyways, here's the youtube clip, its one of my all time favorites. Enjoy, have a great week and give a stranger a high five or fist bump, just because you listened to this song. Please?
