Foreigner announces ‘4’ Super Deluxe Edition

Foreigner announces ‘4’ Super Deluxe Edition
Rhino Records

The set will feature previously unreleased studio and live tracks

Foreigner’s fourth studio album, known as Foreigner 4, is set to be reissued in a Super Deluxe Edition format on September 12th via Rhino Records. Ahead of the album’s 45th anniversary in 2026, 4 will be reissued as a 5-CD/Blu-ray box set and a single vinyl edition with newly remastered audio.

Recorded at the famed Electric Lady Studios in New York City alongside respected music producer Mutt Lange, it features some of the band’s biggest hits, including “Urgent,” “Waiting On A Girl Like You,” and “Jukebox Hero.”

The deluxe 5 CD/Blu-ray package includes a booklet containing over 60 exclusive photos, five previously unreleased songs, 14 early and alternate versions of various songs, 15 instrumentals, and 15 live performances from across the globe, spanning the band’s 1981 and 1982 4 World Tour. The digital deluxe release will also contain alternate versions, instrumentals, and live performances from the era.

“Recording our fourth album took the better part of two years. It was something that just had to be right and I truly believe that Mutt Lange, Lou, Rick, Dennis, and I accomplished something very special. This package, and particularly the stunning Atmos mixes present a spectacular culmination of one of the most exciting periods of my life,” Mick Jones says.

In addition, the band, with guitarist and vocalist Luis Maldonado replacing long-time frontman Kelly Hansen on lead vocals, has reneged on their Farewell Tour plans and will continue touring without any original members. The band will headline the Foreigner 4 Deluxe Tour, featuring original frontman Lou Gramm guesting on some of the songs he made famous 45 years ago. Hansen, whom we interviewed when the band announced its final tour in 2023, is stepping down after the summer run of dates.
