A very special vinyl double LP version of the Almost Famous soundtrack will be released on December 15th. Here’s the details:

In conjunction with Dreamworks Films special directors cut DVD release of Cameron Crowe’s “ALMOST FAMOUS”, Classic Records is pleased to announce the release of “Untitled” – an inspired reissue of the soundtrack for the Academy Award winning film “Almost Famous”. This two LP set features bonus material by Stillwater the fictitious band featured in the film. The Stillwater tracks were mastered directly by Bernie Grundman from the 1/2″ analog masters (*due to time constraints with this production, digital sources were utilized for the other repertoire). This is a limited edition release with over 500 pieces of collectable memorabilia from the film set itself randomly distributed in the packaging. In fact, Cameron Crowe himself will personally autograph 25 LPs that will be distributed at random as well! Feeling lucky? This jack pot release is rare, attainable and EXTREMELY collectable.

I talked to Cameron Crowe briefly tonight. Here’s what he had to say about the new Almost Famous Director’s Cut 2 DVD Set set for later this year.

  • It will be called Untitled: The Bootleg Cut and have key artwork that will look like a bootleg record.
  • It will have both versions of the film.
  • A Stillwater CD will also be included!
  • He said there weren’t plans for the Rolling Stone articles, but when I said that people wanted them, he would include them!
  • Tons of Stillwater Footage (at Rock School learning to play) and the complete footage of all the Stillwater songs in concert.
  • He said the DVD will be really cool and it’s for the fans….

You need to check out the “retrospective” look back at the band Stillwater complete with a bio, discography, and behind the scenes info.  A special thanks to Corey Cox for all his help on the Stillwater bio, it’s much appreciated.
