I’m Like A Virgin Losing A Child – 20th Anniversary Edition Burgundy Vinyl

The “I’m Like a Virgin Losing a Child” LP by Manchester Orchestra is being released on Favorite Gentlemen as a 20th Anniversary Edition in a burgundy vinyl edition. This reissue comes as a gatefold 2LP and expands the band’s 2006 debut with a second record featuring newly arranged, so-called reimagined versions of the original tracks. With this, Favorite Gentlemen brings the album back in a striking, color-designated format that clearly puts the physical presentation of the work front and center.

Musically, the edition documents Andy Hull’s early songwriting and the band’s raw dynamics, from the surging moments of “Wolves at Night” to the more restrained passages of “Don’t Let Them See You Cry.” The original production was handled by Dan Hannon; the mastering of the album version is done by Glenn Schick, preserving the atmosphere and overall tilt of the material. This 20th Anniversary Edition looks back at the band’s formative period while also offering alternative versions that reimagine familiar melodies. For fans of indie rock and alternative, the release on Favorite Gentlemen provides a curated way to experience a defining chapter in the band’s history in a special vinyl edition.
