Taylor Swift - Red (Taylor's Version) (4LP, 45 RPM, Stereo)

Description

Red (Taylor's Version) is the second re-recorded album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was released on November 12, 2021, through Republic Records, as the re-recording of Swift's fourth studio album, Red (2012), and the follow-up to her first re-recorded album Fearless (Taylor's Version) (2021). The release is part of Swift's response countering the purchase of the masters of her back catalog. The 30-track Red (Taylor's Version) includes the re-recorded versions of 20 songs from the deluxe edition of Red; the 2012 charity single "Ronan"; the 10-minute-long, unabridged version of "All Too Well"; Swift's own recordings of "Better Man" (2016) and "Babe" (2018), both of which she wrote but had given to Little Big Town and Sugarland respectively; and six previously unreleased "From the Vault" tracks. All of the producers of Red, except Nathan Chapman, Dann Huff, and Max Martin returned to produce the re-recorded album alongside new inputs from Christopher Rowe, Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff, Espionage, and Elvira Anderfjärd. Phoebe Bridgers and Chris Stapleton joined the album as guest vocalists alongside original features from Gary Lightbody and Ed Sheeran. The album was met with widespread critical acclaim. Contemporaneous journalists described it as a classic pop record with a country core, infusing rock and electronic flairs. Its subject matter deals with various dynamics of love, life, loss, and heartache. Swift's vocals, the enhanced production quality, and the new tracks were often commended in the reviews. Red (Taylor's Version) broke a string of commercial records, including the biggest vinyl sales week in MRC Data history and the Spotify record for the most single-day streams for an album by a female artist. It topped the charts in Argentina, Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, Scotland, and the United Kingdom. In the United States, it was Swift's fourth number-one on the Billboard 200 chart in less than 16 months, making her the fastest artist to collect four number-one albums. Swift promoted the album with televised appearances on NBC and a self-directed short film called All Too Well: The Short Film. Vault songs "I Bet You Think About Me" and "Message in a Bottle" was released as country and pop radio singles, respectively. Red (Taylor's Version) charted 28 of its tracks on the US Billboard Hot 100, garnering the record for the most single-week new entries by an artist; "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" debuted atop the chart, becoming Swift's eighth number-one on the Hot 100 and the longest number-one song of all time—a feat recognized in the Guinness World Records. Winning various accolades, publications have highlighted Red (Taylor's Version) as a key pop culture moment of 2021.
