Red (Taylor's Version) broke a string of commercial records, including the biggest vinyl sales week in MRC Data history and the Spotify record for the most single-day streams for an album by a female artist. Swift's vocals, the enhanced production quality, and the new tracks were often commended in the reviews. Its subject matter deals with various dynamics of love, life, loss and heartache. Contemporaneous journalists described it as a classic pop record with a country core, infusing rock and electronic flairs. The album was met with widespread critical acclaim.

Phoebe Bridgers and Chris Stapleton joined the album as guest vocalists alongside original features from Gary Lightbody and Ed Sheeran. All of the producers of Red, except Nathan Chapman, Dann Huff, and Max Martin, returned to produce the re-recorded album alongside new inputs from Christopher Rowe, Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff, Espionage, and Elvira Anderfjärd. The 30-track Red (Taylor's Version) includes the re-recorded versions of 20 songs from the deluxe edition of Red the 2012 charity single ' Ronan' the 10-minute-long, unabridged version of ' All Too Well' Swift's own recordings of ' Better Man' (2016) and ' Babe' (2018), both of which she wrote but had given off to Little Big Town and Sugarland, respectively and six previously unreleased 'From the Vault' tracks. The release is part of Swift's decision to counter the purchase of the masters of her back catalog. It was released on November 12, 2021, through Republic Records, as the re-recording of Swift's fourth studio album, Red (2012), and the follow-up to her first re-recorded album Fearless (Taylor's Version) (2021). Red (Taylor's Version) is the second re-recorded album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift.
