With its $200-300 price tag on the used market, the vinyl version of 69 Love Songs (originally released in 1999, the first vinyl version came in 2010) is the most expensive release in the Merge Records back catalog. It's 2024 and we thankfully have a new 25th anniversary vinyl reissue of The Magnetic Fields' most celebrated work. Like the original, this version comes with (3) gatefold sleeves, a slipcase to house them all, original booklet, and download card.

"If I had three albums to take to a desert island, I would choose The Magnetic Fields' 69 Love Songs Volumes 1, 2, and 3." - Molly Ringwald
