In early September, I was excited to hear that Blue Rodeo had a live CD and DVD release in the works.

My excitement faded when I found out that only part of the show – a ten track acoustic set – would be released.

This week, specific track listing details were announced for the Blue Road CD/DVD package that turned my frown totally upside down.

Seeing the Five Days in July rarity “Know Where You Go/Tell Me Your Dream” in the track listing was all I needed to see!

And in the DVD bonus features, a recording of Jim Cuddy’s great cover of the George Jones track “Good Year For The Roses” is additional cause to rejoice.

Blue Rodeo – Good Year For The Roses (George Jones cover, live in Chicago at Martyrs in 1997)

Juno-winning video director Christopher Mills shot a documentary on the band that is included on the DVD portion. No idea how long the documentary is, but after watching the trailer on the Blue Rodeo site, I can’t wait to see the whole thing.

Price – $15.95 Canadian (Cheap!!)

Pre-order the set (which will be released on October 28th) right here.
