Taylor Swift to Release ‘Anthology’ Edition of ‘Tortured Poets’ on Vinyl and CD, Plus an Eras Tour Book, for Black Friday
variety.comChris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic It’s beginning to look a lot like Swift-mas: Taylor Swift has a couple of major releases on the way for the holiday season — a first-time CD/vinyl edition of “The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology,” plus a book commemorating the Eras Tour.
The products will be coming out exclusively in Target stores on Black Friday, the singer announced Tuesday. The extended “Anthology” version of her latest album will finally be coming out in both physical formats, with four acoustic bonus tracks tacked onto the 31-song collection that was previously available only as a digital release, adding up to 35 tracks altogether now.
The vinyl release includes four marbled, translucent LPs, accompanied by a 12-by-12 inch poster. The quadruple-LP set will retail for $59.99 and the CD edition for $17.99.
Meanwhile, “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Book” is a 256-page volume that is promised to include more than 500 images, with photos of performances from every segment of the three-hour-plus show, rehearsals and behind-the-scenes images of instruments, costumes, set pieces and designer sketches, plus Swift’s personal reflections and notes.
