LCD Soundsystem have announced a 10th anniversary repress of their long out-of-print vinyl boxset ‘The Long Goodbye: LCD Soundsystem Live At Madison Square Garden’.
The album recording is an unabridged version of the bandâs near four-hour farewell gig, which took place on April 2, 2011, at New York’s famed Madison Square Garden.
The same gig was also documented in the Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace-directed film Shut Up And Play The Hits, which followed frontman James Murphy over a 48-hour period, from the day of gig to the morning after the show.
The album finds LCD Soundsystem joined by a choir, string and horn sections â plus special guest performances from the likes of Win Butler and Regine Chassagne of Arcade Fire, Reggie Watts, the Juan MacLean, Shit Robot, Planningtorock and Shannon Funchess of Light Asylum.
First released in 2014 before going out of print, the five-LP vinyl boxset is being repressed by DFA Records alongside Parlophone and Warner Music; it is also being made available on 3CD for the very first time.
Due for release on August 6, 2021, you can pre-order the album here.

Last year, LCD Soundsystemâs James Murphy presented a show on NTS Radio, spinning key songs that soundtracked the early days of the independent record label he co-founded in 2001.
Titled DFA Presents: James Murphy, the show heard the electronic musician guide listeners through tracks he said unified the brains behind DFA Records (himself, Tim Goldsworthy, Jonathan Galkin, and others).
“For the most part, Iâm going through records we used to listen to as a group of people when we started DFAâ, he explained as he opened the show on November 12, 2020.
