'A Rock In The Weary Land' was The Waterboys' seventh studio album, originally released on September 25, 2000. The recording saw the return of the band name after Mike Scott's two solo albums and featured contributions from two original Waterboys, Kevin Wilkinson and Anthony Thistlethwaite, and some brilliant new ones including keyboard players Thighpaulsandra and Sir Richard Naiff. NME described the album as "a masterpiece" and Mojo called it "brazen, unapologetic, vital".
This Cooking Vinyl release marks the first time the album has been reissued, and its first ever release on vinyl. Mike Scott has curated this definitive version, with the sequence on the LP based on the 14-song 2001 US edition, which added 'Lucky Day / Bad Advice' and 'My Lord, What A Morning' to the original UK version. The 4th side of the 2LP vinyl version is taken up with a spectacular 16-minute live version of Waterboys' classic Savage Earth Heart.
Scott has also overseen a re-working of the artwork, using a different Steve Gullick photo from the original album cover sessions on the front. The vinyl includes many previously unseen shots and comes in a gatefold sleeve. The vinyl format is 2 x 180g Limited Edition Sky Blue colored vinyl.
