Maxinquaye (Reincarnated): Super Deluxe 2CD

The super deluxe reissue of Tricky’s ‘Maxinquaye’, his debut album from 1995. The album has sold over half a million copies to date and always appears on authoritative lists of the greatest ever albums, including NME’s “500 Greatest Albums List, Q’s “List of the 100 Greatest British Albums”, Mojo’s “100 Modern Classics” and Rolling Stone’s “Essential Recordings of the 90s”.

This reissue is a welcome reappraisal of Tricky’s seminal album as it approaches its 30th anniversary (2025). It features the original studio album remastered at Abbey Road, with the 3LP having the original album spread over 3 sides for the first time to get the best possible sound on wax, as well as 6 new Maxinquaye “Reincarnated” versions recorded by Tricky in 2022, and a previously unreleased BBC session of album tracks recorded with a full live band in the autumn of 1995.
