The Original Recordings (Singles and Unreleased 1995-1997) is a compilation album put together by founding members of The Detroit Cobras, and their fifth release. The album includes the first three 45s released by the original band as well as outtakes from their first LP and other unreleased tracks.
Contents
This album was going to be released by Sympathy for the Record Industry as Lost and Found in 2004, but complications arose with the current and former members of the band, so the project was temporarily scrapped. Munster Records in Spain was successful in reaching an agreement with all parties involved and released the LP in three different formats, 12" LP, CD and 7" 45 boxset, each including a detailed history of the early years of the group.
