The Band isn't really known to me but discovered them of late (call me a younger generation still in my mid 30s...). Great album however. Not sure why not so known seeing the quality they show here? US Country/folk rock is a bit less played in general in Europe I feel..
They must have been pretty big in their peak days?
 
The streaming services' "De Luxe" version delivers far more material than my old vinyl. Is it necessary? Up to you, the additional tracks are a nice to have but I prefer nearly always the genuine album version.
They are nice for some experiments or deep dives. But 99% of the time I do feel the bonus stuff takes away from the pure album experience. Guess you just as well have the option to push stop once you reached the original ending so "deluxe" problem 😂
 
Already 20 years ago this album was released.
