John Prine’s 2005 Grammy-winning album Fair & Square will have a deluxe reissue this fall. The double album edition will arrive on October 1st via the late songwriter’s own label Oh Boy Records. The LP, which will be available in standard black, opaque green, green and orange, was pressed in the Third Man Records pressing plant in Detroit.

Each show will feature a surprising line-up of friends portraying and celebrating the life of Prine. The proceeds will go to the Hello in There Foundation.

On October 8th, Oh Boy Records will release a new tribute LP, Broken Hearts and Dirty Windows: Songs of John Prine, Vol. 2.
