Releases

Now out of print, the original version Say What You Will... consisted of nine songs, and sold 6,738 vinyl copies and 2,639 cassettes. The album was reissued under the title Say What You Will, Clarence...Karl Sold the Truck on CD in 1988 with five extra songs that had been cut from the original release. These five had been previously available only on Soul Asylum's rare cassette release, Time's Incinerator (1986). It was then reissued again in 2018 on CD and vinyl, which also included tracks from Soul Asylum's prior band, Loud Fast Rules. The 2018 release was retitled to Say What You Will...Anything Can Happen.[1]

"Karl Sold the Truck" refers to bassist Karl Mueller selling their Chevrolet pickup truck for a larger Dodge van which would be their transportation for their 1984 tour.
