Love Tractor's forward-sounding 1988’s Themes From Venus treated to a remastered &amp; expanded edition by Propeller Sound Recordings. This Expanded Edtion includes 6 previously unreleased mixes and instrumental versions not included in the original release. Housed in fully redesigned artwork with a full-color insert, the band's fourth release is given a chance to spread the Art Rock pioneers' music out of this world. Considered a founder of the Athens, Georgia alternative music scene—along with The B-52’s, Pylon, and REM. After its original release, Love Tractor embarked on a healthy touring regime to promote the record, including a 60-date stint with The B-52s on their Cosmic Thing tour. Though the band went on hiatus in the early 1990s, they would return again in 2001 and are currently working on new music.
