A special double LP plus DVD, featuring 2 albums by the late Jay Bennett (Wilco) alongside the 2021 feature-length documentary Where are you, Jay Bennett?, packaged in a gatefold jacket.

Where are you, Jay Bennett? is a feature-length documentary on Jay Bennett, a legendary musician, who as a member of Wilco, was a large part of the genius behind their three seminal albums (Being There, Summerteeth, and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - he co-wrote most of Summerteeth and YHF with Jeff Tweedy) as well as the Mermaid Avenue / Woody Guthrie sessions with Billy Bragg, and who went on to a critically acclaimed solo career, before dying tragically at the age of 45.

Whatever Happened I Apologize is best described by Brian Robbins of Jam- Bands.com: “a departure from much of his past work. Simply put, the master of what-this-track-needs-is-one-more-weird-noise-and-it’ll-be-perfect (and staunch defender of vinyl) has offered up a digital-only acoustic album much of it just the man, his guitar, and some pretty open emotions.”<

Kicking at the Perfumed Air is a beautiful collection of personal songs that Jay Bennett was working on when he died. Released posthumously, the album was praised for its subtle beauty. Pitchfork said: “Perfumed works simply because Bennett was such a keen craftsman, his mournfulness so elegantly expressed, and as such, nevertheless serves as a fitting elegy for an under-appreciated and occasionally misunder- stood songsmith and musician taken too soon.”
