November 2005 marks the 30th anniversary of the
release of Patti Smith's debut album, Horses, a
groundbreaking rock & roll masterpiece which continues
its unparalleled influence on rock music, style and
culture.

Arista/Columbia/Legacy Recordings will celebrate this
musical milestone with the release of Horses Horses, a
two-disc Legacy Special Edition of Patti Smith's debut
album, on Tuesday, November 8.

Disc One of Horses Horses features the original album,
in its entirety, along with the bonus track, Patti's
interpretation of the Who's classic "My Generation."
Initially released as the B-side to "Gloria," the
first single from Horses, in 1975, "My Generation"
features John Cale, the album's producer, on bass. 
The Legacy Special Edition of Horses has been
remastered by Greg Calbi producing superior sound to
previous editions of the album.

The second disc of Horses Horses showcases Patti Smith
and her Band--Lenny Kaye (guitar), Jay Dee Daugherty
(drums), Tony Shanahan (bass), Tom Verlaine (guitar)
and featuring Flea from the Red Hot Chili
Peppers--performing the complete Horses album live,
with a "My Generation" encore, at the Royal Festival
Hall in London on June 25, 2005.  This historic
performance of Horses was the culminating concert at
the 2005 Meltdown Festival, which was curated by Patti
Smith.  (Lenny Kaye and Jay Dee Daugherty were both
members of the ensemble that played on the original
Horses while Tom Verlaine was a guest artist on the
1975 album).

Horses Horses comes packaged with a deluxe booklet
featuring rare archival photographs, ephemera, lyrics
and documentation of the 2005 concert as well as Paul
Williams' provocative essay on "Gloria."
