(PR) The next two months will have a whole lot of Heart with three releases of classic and recent music coinciding with the group's three-month, 40-plus date nationwide summer tour. On May 13, Epic/Legacy will release a Heart twofer set that combines their landmark, multimillion selling albums Little Queen (1977) and Dog & Butterfly (1979) into one eco-friendly package as part of the debut of the X2 series. The X2 set boasts five bonus tracks, including a live recording of Heart performing Led Zeppelin's "Stairway To Heaven."
Epic/Legacy will also release a Heart title as part of its Playlist series that gathers 14 of the group's best songs — all re-mastered and mp3 ready — into an also eco-friendly digi-pak set that includes computer accessible pdf files containing liner notes essays, discographical information, photography, bonus features, and more.
The two packages also coincide with the recently announced June 3 re-release of Jupiter's Darling, Heart's most recent studio recording from 2004
