Saturday Sounds - The Tragically Hip - Fully Completely

In this week's musical treat I want to revisit The Tragically Hip. A couple of weeks ago, I posted about the wonderful documentary, No Dress Rehearsal, which chronicles their career. This week, it's the deluxe release of Fully Completely, which has some of their best songs. 

The original album came out in 1992 and was rereleased in 2014, just a couple of years before their final tour. It features several songs, "Courage (For Hugh MacLennan)", "At the Hundredth Meridian", "Fully Completely", "Fifty Mission Cap", and "Wheat Kings", that became anthems in their concerts and burned themselves into the brains of a generation of Canadians. The rerelease also includes live versions of most of the songs. Enjoy.
