Amazon says The Cardigans vinyl is out 5th Feb? Is this right?
HMV says 1st Feb but also they are sold out so not sure I trust HMV?
We’ve got our stock at the SDE shop and will be shipping tomorrow!
Of course! Thanks.
Appallingly lazy LP cover from The Specials. Great single though!
Everyone seems perfectly content to forget that The Specials released an album of new material in 1998, “Guilty Till Proved Innocent”.
Plus they released, what, four albums of covers between the early 90s and early 00s

New album??
The Johnny Mathis CD apparently also has some bonus mixes which weren’t on the version in the box set.
What mixes might those be? I only see the eight song version…
The Johnny Mathis album was issued on LP last year by Sony for RSD
When six out of seven original members of The Specials got back together in 2009 it really was a big deal. Its a real shame that they didn’t produce any new music while Brad was alive and Roddy and Neville were in the band.
