The ever reliable Fire Records has announced the start of a Giant Sand / Howe Gelb series of rolling reissues, which will see the re-release of roughly 30 albums culminating in two box sets to be released next year. Each album will be lovingly re-issued in red and silver limited edition digipacks.  The first three (Valley Of Rain, The Ballad Of A Thin Line Man, Storm) are available now and can be ordered here.

For those who have so far missed out on the genius that is Howe Gelb, check the three taster tracks below. Marvellous stuff!
