The Long-Playing EP

The Long-Playing EP is the fourth and final record from Atlanta rock group Y-O-U, released in July 2009. It consists of five new tracks and eight tracks taken from previous Y-O-U releases; the new songs originally having been intended for a 2008 album which fell through. According to lead singer Nick Niespodziani, the first three of the new songs from The Long-Playing EP were also planned to appear on a new LP to be released in 2010; however, the retirement of Y-O-U renders that plan moot.
