Is your green army jacket the only thing keeping you warm tonight?

The glorious Shout! Factory released some info on the Freaks and Geeks soundtrack, which is due out on September 14th:

FREAKS AND GEEKS ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK (CD)
When series producers Paul Feig and Judd Apatow discovered nearly 40,000 "Freaks and Geeks" fans had signed an online petition pledging to buy a future release of the DVD, they quickly prompted executives at Shout! Factory and DreamWorks to brave the music licensing issues and commit to a Freaks and Geeks DVD release. Freaks And Geeks Original Soundtrack features the series' best songs, courtesy of The Who, Joan Jett, Rush, XTC and more. Mike Andrews' original score, plus unforgettable cast recordings such as Nick's ode to Lindsay, "Lady L.," round out the 25 memorable tracks. The soundtrack is the perfect companion to the six-disc DVD set released by Shout! Factory earlier this year, and will retail for a suggested price of $18.98.

Judd Apatow revealed a few more tracks yesterday on the freaksandgeeks.com board:
