Whatever Wolfmother’s role or impact was on this change is questionable. I’m just happy that we got in when we did, and everything I’ve seen since seems pretty righteous.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e10th Anniversary Edition\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAudiophile-grade 180g heavyweight vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDouble LP\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes the acoustic version of “Vagabond”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes download card\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal album newly remastered from high-resolution transfers of the original analog reels\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP 1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide 1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDimension\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhite Unicorn\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWoman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere Eagles Have Been\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApple Tree\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoker \u0026amp; the Thief\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColossal\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMind’s Eye\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide 1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePyramid\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWitchcraft\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTales from the Forest of Gnomes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLove Train\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVagabond\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSide 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Earth’s Rotation Around the Sun\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVagabond – Acoustic Version\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoker \u0026amp; the Thief – Loving Hands Remix\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWoman – MSTRKRFT Remix\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UNIVERSAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46512006299844,"sku":"060075361523","price":810.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0406\/7927\/6700\/files\/bca253d83fa4aecd2be0b6cbe7b83aab.png?v=1786619779"}],"url":"https:\/\/umg.africa\/collections\/wolfmother.oembed","provider":"UMG Africa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
