Merge Records recently posted that Sugar's Copper Blue and Beaster were going to be re-issued as a three CD set featuring both releases, b-sides, and a live 1992 show. Merge is taking pre-orders, so you'll want to act quickly.
If you also love Sugar's File Under: Easy Listening, then you may want to get the bundle that includes all three Sugar releases, the b-sides, the live 1992 show, and the first 150 orders will receive a poster signed by Bob Mould. Awesome!
My wallet isn't liking all these multi-disc re-releases with bonus material, particularly when the original CDs are in good shape - this year, The Who, Sugar, Mermaid Avenue, Supreme Dicks. I mean, the more the merrier, but re-releasing the history of great rock and roll is a prescription for bankruptcy.
