Sun sublime plus#
Although there are a few demos, a couple of unreleased cuts (a cover of Dee Dee Warwick's "Foolish Fool," plus a version of "Doin' Time" with Snoop Dogg) and several acoustic versions, this primarily consists of live recordings, including many radio sessions, culled from throughout the band's career. The hardcore asked for it, so it's no surprise that the box is designed with the hardcore in mind: songs appear numerous times, sound quality wavers, and some of this stuff, like a 14-minute interview with Westwood One, takes dedication to sit through. And lo and behold, the triple-CD/one-DVD box Everything Under the Sun appeared that November. There were a bunch of Sublime rarities, mostly live cuts, that hadn't been officially released, so the band's cult - which was still considerable, a decade after Nowell's demise - circulated an online petition asking for the release of a rarities box.
It offered a remastered, resequenced version of the album, restoring it to the version that the band intended to release prior to the tragic death of Bradley Nowell, buttressed with alternate takes, instrumentals, and remixes - and when it was added to their catalog, which already had collections of demos and rarities, plus live albums, it seemed like everything had been documented. The late-summer 2006 release of the double-disc deluxe edition of Sublime seemed to be the final word on the seminal SoCal ska-punk band, at least to the casual observer.
