Stone Roses Reissue, hello!

The Stone Roses are resurrecting their 1989 self-titled debut album in a deluxe and hearty package.
The first CD is the original record, re-polished by Ian Brown and producer John Leckie. In addition, there's another CD with demos and full-length tracks. Along with this, there's a DVD of the 1989 Blackpool show. Yes, this would be dubbed "The Legacy Package."
There will be the "Collector's Edition," which includes 3 LPs: the original The Stone Roses and 13 other tracks that were not included in the album. Okay, there is also a photo book and band diary that catches behind-the-scenes moments and musings from the band and their friends, like Mark Ronson. John Squire's album art for their singles covers is also in the package, of course including the Pollock-inspired debut album cover which was named by Q magazine as one of "The 100 Best Covers of All Time." And finally, a 2 GB USB drive in the shape of a lemon (get it?) that has "all the audio, promo videos, ringtones, wallpapers, plus previously unseen John Leckie home video footage of the recording of 'Fool's Gold'," according to a press release.
They weren't messing around.
