This is the vinyl release Matthew Sweet's 1991 classic has always deserved and the best Girlfriend you'll ever have... Matthew Sweet's essential 1991 power-pop tour-de-force gets its analog due on Intervention's Expanded Edition 180-Gram Double-LP release!


Girlfriend's original 1991 LP release was a single LP that simply excised the last three songs that were included on the original 15-track CD release. Those three tracks were a tremendous loss as the song's final, elegiac track "Nothing Lasts" was considered as the title track.


Intervention's amazing Double LP Expanded Edition restores the original 15-song repertoire to three vinyl sides for maximum bass and dynamics. Side D includes three demo tracks- "Good Friend," "Superdeformed" and "Teenage Female."


Girlfriend's album art was lovingly restored by Intervention's Art Director Tom Vadakan, and printed as a gorgeous "Old Style" gatefold by Stoughton printing in LA. It's printed on heavy stock and film-laminated for superior color depth, beauty and durability. The center labels were printed by Dorado.


"Matthew Sweet's third album is a remarkable artistic breakthrough ... thanks to his exceptional songwriting, the album is a fresh, original interpretation of a classic sound." - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AllMusic


"... the holy grail of power pop." -Tiny Mix Tapes


"As with every album the label has laid its golden touch to, every second of this album sounds as beguiling and sparkling as ever through their adherence to 100% analog process and the tender mastering work of Ryan K. Smith who did wonderful things with the reissue of John Lennon's Imagine last year. If you don't know this record, just know that Sweet abandoned a decent showing as an early adult alternative act in the late '80s to dive deep into his love of '60s and '70s pop and rock and came away with a near-perfect collection of Cheap Trick-level riffage and Boyce/Hart-style melodic smarts. It kicked the commercial door open for him and started a run of marvelous albums for this singer-songwriter that, if we're honest, hasn't really stopped. An added attraction to this vinyl reissue is the inclusion of three demos from the era, including the future No Alternative gem 'Superderformed,' all of which were released on a CD-single back in the '90s." - Robert Ham, Paste Magazine
