Generous Simply Red multi-disc deluxe editions on the way
Edsel will release a collection of Simply Red deluxe editions at the end of June.
The reissue campaign takes in all three albums released since 2000 (originally issued on Mick Hucknall’s own simplyred.com label) alongside two repackaged DVD releases, both of which see their debut on the Blu-ray format, taking full advantage of the original HD footage.
Home, released in 2003, features the big hit single Sunrise and is expanded to four discs – 3CDs and a DVD – while Simplified (2005) and Stay (2007) boast 2CD+DVD packages. Each release features bonus content that includes radio edits, remixes and live tracks. The DVDs in the album sets all come with new interviews with Mick Hucknall, promo videos, TV appearances and more.
Home Live in Sicily and Cuba! are separate four-disc sets, each featuring the concert films on Blu-ray and DVD alongside two further CDs for your audio-only playback convenience.
All of these sets come as familiar deluxe casebound books, including the blu-ray sets which are packaged in blu-ray/dvd dimensions.
These are incredible value at the moment with Home (3CD+DVD) just over £11 on Amazon UK and the 2CD+DVD sets ringing in at just £10.
All of these are released on 30 June 2014. You will find complete track listings below.

[…] Some excellent expansive deluxe editions of the Simply Red ‘noughties’ albums, including a 3CD+DVD edition of Home (featuring the hit Sunrise) as well as two concert performances offered in Blu-ray+DVD+2CD format. […]
Well, they did a good job with the deluxe editions of Picture Book, A New Flame and especially Stars. The expanded editions of Men And Woman, Life, Blue and Love And The Russian Winter were bad.
[…] told you about Demon Music’s Simply Red reissues last month and while no one would argue that these albums represent the band at their zenith, the packages do […]
These are amazing! Really wish the earlier reissues were done this good with all the bonus tracks and mixes (although Stars was done pretty well). Maybe if we’re lucky those ones will be reissued lavishly like these one day.
Home is by far the best of the three.
As Da’Ron asked…will the DVD/Blu-ray’s be region coded? Thanks.
They won’t be. Other Edsel CD+DVD combos have been region 0, NTSC
I’ve only been a passing Simply Red fan, but I just wanted to say Edsel REALLY know how to do reissues….
Wow!! Wow!! Wow!!! Why can’t all deluxe editions be this delicious? I’m salivating.
Will the DVD/Blue-ray’s be region coded?
I have the Cuba DVD original release, and it’s a great watch and listen. I can recommend it and I’m not even a huge SR fan.
Love Simply Red. Almost got all of the remixes and live versions, but no doubt I’m gonna fest on these releases.
