The original record – which delivered three rock radio hits in “Big Bang Baby”, “Trippin’ On A Hole In A Paper Heart” and “Lady Picture Show” – debuted and peaked at No. 4 on the US Billboard 200 on its way to sales of more than 2 million copies in the region.
The expanded 2021 reissue will feature a remastered version of the original album, alternate versions and mixes of several of the songs, and a complete concert taped at the Club La Vela in Panama City Beach, Florida, on March 14, 1997.
"Tiny Music" was recorded in late 1995 with producer Brendan O'Brien at the Westerly Ranch in Santa Ynez, CA.
“Re-listening to this album brought back some beautiful memories of all of us living, writing, and recording the record in the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley,” guitarist Dean DeLeo tells Rolling Stone. “And of course, every time I revisit this stuff I miss Scott.”
Original STP lead singer Scott Weiland – who parted ways with the band in 2013 and spent the next two years working on solo music and his group The Wildabouts – died in December 2015 at age 48 from an accidental overdose while on tour.
Last year, the group released an acoustic record, “Perdida”, the band’s eighth studio album and second with singer Jeff Gutt following a 2018 self-titled effort.
