Space Wrangler is the first studio album by the Athens, Georgia-based band Widespread Panic. It was first released by a small Atlanta label, Landslide Records, on February 4, 1988. It was later reissued four times, the first two times by Capricorn Records/Warner Bros. Records, and, in 2001, by Zomba Music Group. Space Wrangler was reissued for the fourth time on vinyl for one day, July 15, 2014, as a special reissue through Think Indie distribution, that was sold only at independent record stores. Due to time restraints on the original issue, concert staple "Conrad" was not included in the 1988 release. The reissues featured three extra tracks not found on the original release. "Holden Oversoul" and "Contentment Blues" were both from a John Keane studio session in September 1990. "Holden Oversoul" features Phish keyboardist Page McConnell on organ. "Me and The Devil Blues / Heaven" was recorded in one take and was taken from "try-out" sessions with Capricorn Records that would result in the Widespread Panic album. Space Wrangler has been released on vinyl, cassette and CD. The band played the original Landslide release in its entirety during the first set on December 31, 2008.
