Sufjan Stevens’ illuminating (Come On Feel The) Illinoise album celebrated it’s tenth anniversary last year, and to celebrate his label, Asthmatic Kitty is releasing the Illinois: Special 10th Anniversary Blue Marvel Edition, which includes a die-cut, star-shaped 12″ vinyl record based on Chicago’s city flag that includes a stellar demo of song Chicago off the album.  Asthmatic Kitty announced that they are also “selling a slightly less special, misprinted 12-inch version of the song separately. The label on these 2,000 records incorrectly reads 45 RPM. The record plays best at 33 RPM. We made a lot of mistakes.”

Though they are out of pre-orders for the Special Blue Marvel Edition, it will be available worldwide through your favorite local record store.  So go visit your local record store and pick up a star or two. You can listen to the superb Chicago demo below and buy a copy HERE.
