Ween’s 14-CD Box Set of Unreleased Tour Shows
Ween is officially opening up the archives, giving fans access to a rare treasure trove of their past: Boognish Provides. This new collection features seven previously unreleased concerts from the legendary 1994-95 Chocolate And Cheese tour, offering a deep dive into a pivotal era of the band’s history.
Arriving next month via Rhino, this monumental release is available in two formats: a comprehensive 14-CD box set and a condensed 2-LP edition, allowing fans to experience the raw energy of the tour in various ways.
These recordings capture Ween at a crucial point, reflecting the band’s evolution shortly after they began touring with a full backing ensemble. The dates on the tapes place them right at the heart of a transformative period for the group.
The context surrounding these performances is particularly compelling. These shows took place when the band was collaborating with a full backing band, featuring the distinctive sounds of bassist Andrew Weiss and drummer Claude Coleman.
The Chocolate And Cheese tour remains an essential chapter in Ween’s discography, and these unreleased sessions provide an intimate glimpse into the creative process during that time.
For longtime fans and newcomers alike, this release is more than just a collection of old songs; it is a time capsule, offering an unfiltered look at the live performances and the foundational moments that shaped the band.
