Cameron Crowe’s
Almost Famous soundtrack is getting a series of deluxe-edition reissues, including a mammoth, 13-disc “Uber Deluxe” box set, which will hit shelves July 9.
The semi-autobiographical 2000 film serves as Crowe s love letter to classic rock and the fandoms that sustained their favorite hard-working, hard-partying bands. The musical dramedy follows 15-year-old William Miller (Patrick Fugit), a prodigious rock scribe who is pursuing his first major story assignment, a
Rolling Stone profile on the fictitious, up-and-coming rock band Stillwater.
Crowe similarly scored his first
Rolling Stone cover story at 16, spending three weeks on the road with the Allman Brothers Band and interviewing members of the group and road crew.
