“This is a reconstruction / reimagining / excavation of the album ‘Oh You’re So Silent Jens’ that originally came out in 2005″

Jens Lekman is a very intriguing independent Swedish musician who has put out a series of imaginative releases since 2004. This release is a revisit, 17 years later, of an earlier compilation which tracked singles, EPs, and other loose ends.

That LP has been incredibly hard to find and has not been reissued (sample clearance issues?) so Lekman re-recorded the entire collection and added a few. Absolutely one you should pick up if you see it in the wild.
