One of the most impressive and successful debut albums of all time, Counting Crows' 1993's August And Everything After spent a remarkable 93 weeks on the charts and is certified 7 times platinum. It also spawned the hits Mr. Jones (#5 Pop, #2 both Mainstream and Modern Rock), Round Here (#7 Modern Rock, #11 Mainstream Rock and Top 40 Pop), and Rain King (#4 Mainstream Rock) and a mammoth worldwide tour. Even before the album was released the group had filled in for Van Morrison at his induction to the Rock 'n' Roll Hall Of Fame, and before the album charted, they played on Saturday Night Live. Such was the buzz for this band in '93 and '94, then came the explosion. This new Deluxe Edition, personally overseen in every aspect by the band, celebrates that monumental time with the first disc fleshed out with previously unreleased demos of the album's Omaha, Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, and expands the album even further with a series of demos of songs that didn't make the album. The second disc is a magical Paris concert which concluded their incredible 17 month tour, begun shortly after the recording of the album.
