• The major-label debut from alternative/power popsters. • Remastered from original tapes. • 2-CD expanded with 27 bonus tracks. We began our career exactly 30 years prior by releasing a home-recorded cassette called Failure, which to our complete surprise became an instant favorite around the Northwest, earning us critical accolades, radio airplay, and major label interest all in a very short time. We were lucky to find ourselves living just a few doors down the road in Seattle from Arthur “Rick” Roberts and Mike Musburger, who agreed to join our band on bass and drums, respectively. Signed to Geffen Records, we recorded our second album Dear 23, and toured the U.S., including support tours for both Redd Kross and The Replacements. These three albums on Geffen remain beloved by our fans; our most popular, most often cited, most requested works. However, over the years, the CDs have been in and out of print, there have been inconsistent presences on streaming, the LPs either long out of print or not issued at all depending on the territory. Dear 23 on CD came out in the early days of the format, and the older CDs are not exactly true to the analog masters the albums were made on. Good news: all that’s about to change. Dear 23 will be re-issued by Omnivore Recordings (who have, among many releases new and old, reissued our first album Failure plus releases by Big Star, Game Theory, etc). Each album will be released as a double CD set: one CD containing the original album, remastered from the original analog tapes, plus enough bonus material to fill out the rest of the CD; and one full CD of more bonus material. Don’t expect just a repackaging of material already available on our 2000 boxed set of outtakes—nearly all of the bonus tracks on these new reissues have never been heard! Dear 23 will now stretch across two LPs and will be mastered at 45 RPM. We made the decision to stick to just the original albums for the vinyl release, and give it room to breathe across two glorious slabs of wax. So if bonus tracks are your thing, the 2-CD set will have you covered. Catch The Posies on their 30th Anniversary tour in 2018 too!

This excellent 2 disc remaster sounds great, and is chock full of bonus tracks - really GOOD bonus tracks, and in my opinion, are an essential part of the story of this revord's evolution into being.I have a long history with this band, this album, the songs, and being fortunate enough to hear/get tapes with some of these demos at the time. These songs made me proud of my friends, at how good they were, appreciated them as a fellow musician, and got to enjoy seeing this come together on their ascent.Beyond simple bonus tracks, I think the demos uncommonly support and expand the appreciation of the final album.Worth every penny

A Slice of Power Pop Music Heaven
This is nothing short of a thick slice of Power Pop Music Heaven. The original album still sounds amazing to this day and the wealth of bonus tracks and alternative versions here has this already passing my second complete listen since it came yesterday. I've enjoyed the band ever since I first caught them on The Spud Goodman Show (local Seattle TV) and just have bought and loved every record right up through Success. Their writing and harmonies are still beautiful to this day and when you add in that the two main members where once part of Big Star their is music well worth supporting!

Review of Vinyl pressing
Sometimes you hear a reissue of one of your favorite lps and remember why you wanted vinyl to begin with. This is seriously awesome in mastering and pressing. The lp itself is one I cannot really be objective about, as the Posies were sacred to me.

Absolutely fabulous album!
The demos alone are worth the price of admission. Demos by The Posies are better than most artists’ actual releases!

Don't buy this ! REMASTER quality is OK but volume is way too soft.
I don't know why the other reviewers aren't all saying that this cd is woefully UNDER-remastered !. During play, the sound is just as "soft" as the original 1989 version which I also own. I only bought this remaster so I could mix it with other songs by other artists into a mix cd but it's still just too soft and under-produced.

Eclectic power pop for the new millenium
While Frosting on the Beater is the classic for most, the Posies' Dear 23 is the dreamier of the two and the new remastering to 45 rpm vinyl is wonderful..a must for fans of Big Star and Gigolo Aunts.
