Gene Clark<\/a>\u2019s seminal 1974 solo album No Other<\/em> will be rereleased as a deluxe reissue this fall. Remastered at Abbey Road Studios, the album will be available on November 8th via 4AD in honor of the late musician\u2019s 75th birthday.<\/p>\n

The eight-track LP will be released on vinyl and CD, as well as a recording of \u201cTrain Leaves Here This Morning,\u201d a song Clark wrote with Bernie Leadon the Eagles made famous on their 1972 self-titled debut. The No Other<\/em> tracks \u201cFrom A Silver Phial\u201d and \u201cSilver Raven\u201d are available now, the latter a country-rock slow burner written about Clark\u2019s wife\u2019s silver platform shoes.<\/p>\n

The lavish box set includes No Other<\/em> on vinyl as well as three SACDs. One album will house a Japanese replica sleeve, with the others containing various session mixes. In addition, a documentary by Paul Kendall \u2014 who directed 2013\u2019s The Byrd Who Flew Alone: The Triumphs and Tragedy of Gene Clark<\/em> \u2014 is also included on a Blu-ray disc. A seven-inch single and a hardbound book of essays, liner notes and exclusive photos top it off.<\/p>\n

After a short-lived reunion with the Byrds<\/a> in 1972, in which they released a self-titled LP off David Geffen\u2019s Asylum Records that garnered poor reviews, Geffen signed Clark as a solo artist. Released in September 1974, No Other<\/em> fused psychedelic, country-rock and soul and contained unconventional arrangements that were unheard of at the time. Clark reportedly spent over $100,000 making the record, enraging Geffen and causing Asylum to barely promote it.<\/p>\n

Although Clark, who died in 1991, never fully recovered from the album\u2019s commercial failure, No Other<\/em> has become a cult classic in the 45 years since its release. In 2014, Beach House, Grizzly Bear and Fleet Foxes teamed up for a tour<\/a> in which the performed the album in its entirety<\/a>, dubbing themselves the Gene Clark No Other Band.<\/p>\n

No Other<\/em><\/a> is currently available for pre-order.<\/p>\n
