This 40th anniversary edition of Dexys Midnight Runners 1982 album Too-Rye-Ay features a newly mixed version of the record, dubbed the ‘as it should have sounded’ version.

  1. So what does this sound like then? My PS4 knows what it is but displays an error when I try to play it. I can see it sitting on the shelf for a while (years probably) until I buy something that can play it :/

  2. Mine came yesterday and a beautiful little package it is..the music sounds unreal in a good way and surely this format was invented for eno

  3. Not out this week, but announced about a week ago.

    Black Sabbath are putting out newly remastered 2CD / 2LP versions of their first two Dio fronted albums (Heaven & Hell and Mob Rules) in November.

    No idea if they’re part of the Sabbath reissue series that gave us the 4CD boxes but interesting nonetheless.

    1. These two titles were originally issued last year as expanded limited editions (America only). Looks like they are the same thing but now with a wider release

      1. How about US orders?? Also, if you can include the slipcase to the xPropaganda #2, that would be awesome…and what’s going on with the Gilbert O’Sullivan #3??

        1. The US orders ship before the UK orders! No we can’t put xProp in there because they are still at the printers. Expecting a positive Gilbert update in the next 48 hours.

    1. I’m really looking forward to it, my first SDE store purchase. Out of interest though what were the first two SDE blu’s, obviously sold out now but am curious?

        1. Can we have Tears for Fears ‘Hurting’ and ‘Songs from the Big Chair’ please.

          The 5.1’s mix’s are there already!

          I know you have connections with TFF, so should be a ‘no brainer’ really.

          1. There’s only a 5.1 mix of Big Chair. There is no 5.1 mix of the Hurting. The box set and blu-ray only included a remastered stereo mix.

      1. “Bricks and mortar” seems to be a bit of a moveable feast, sometimes it seems to mean over-the-counter and sometimes it just means not on Amazon.

        In fact the “Heroes” is on Juno and I don’t know if they even have a physical shop?

  4. I’ve lost count of the number of times The Clash’s debut album has been reissued on coloured vinyl in the last 5 or 6 years. I’ll stick with my original Police Outlandos D’Amour blue vinyl in bought in early 1979.

  5. I’ll be making an excursion to Rough Trade for Medazzaland this Friday. I’m sure I’ll end up picking up some other stuff. The new Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ album perhaps.

  6. It’s also National Album Day on Friday with loads of debut albums being re-released, including The Police – Outlandos D’Amour on blue vinyl and The Damned – Damned, Damned, Damned on yellow vinyl, The Clash on pink vinyl and The The – Soul Mining.

    1. Who’s betting that ‘National Album Day’ won’t last past 2022?
      It seems the record companies have NO enthusiasm for it judging by this list of very uninspiring releases…
      Surely the idea is to get the masses back into record shops? Apart from a couple of exceptions, these won’t do it…
      If it’s to continue and be a success they need to step up their game.

      1. Agree. It’s not just that but re-re-rereleasing an album just in a different color appeals to the completists and scalpers who hardly constitute the masses. It’s annoying to me that the focus has shifted to adding colors to the album and not quality. I have The Police on three different mediums already with excellent sound reproduction. The blue scratch ‘n sniff is not truly appealing.
        I think it was Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer who said “not all that shines is gold”. Maybe he re-released that statement attributed originally to someone else.

      2. Damned looks good as long as they don’t put a live track instead of the original recording, like they apparently did with strawberries, was it stranger on the town?

    1. I wonder that myself…have the first 2…all I know is Volume 3 is called “Love Is The Message” & that’s it…and looking at the PIR discography, a Bunny Sigler album is in there but it could be a compilation of sorts…

      1. This is some info I’ve found:

        This is the third installment in a limited edition series that includes the third eight studio albums released by PIR in the mid 1970s. This series features all albums as well as being remastered from the original tapes and will chronologically chart the history of Philadelphia International Records.

        The eight classic albums in Volume 3 include: The Ebonys: The Ebonys, Thad Jones & Mel Lewis: Potpourri, MFSB: Love Is The Message, Bunny Sigler: That’s How Long I’ll Be Loving You, Monk Montgomery: Reality, Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes: To Be True, The O’Jays: Survival and Billy Paul: Got My Head On Straight and on vinyl an exclusive 12-inch

        The eight CDs are packaged in a large deluxe hardcover box including a beautiful 48-page book including rare photos with notes by Tony Cummings (author of The Sound of Philadelphia) and a foreword by Ralph Tee (Blues & Soul Magazine). The beautifully finished deluxe box contains an exclusive bonus 12-inch single, a poster and certificate of authenticity. This edition has a strictly limited edition of only 2500 copies and is the second part of a series of 10
