Irish celebs FONTAINES D.C. released
their stellar 4th LP Romance.
And, of course, the album gets his deluxe edition.
Except for fanatic fans, I wonder who buys deluxe
editions?
It features their standalone single It’s Amazing To Be Young, which came
out last February and a new moody one, titled BEFORE YOU JUST FORGET
“‘Before You I Just Forget’ is a song that started with a vision of this really blown
out sound, something that heaved and shifted with new details becoming apparent
every time you would listen.”

Mark Mothersbaugh (keyboardist/producer): “This box set represents a great cross section of early experiments and later creations. I was looking to create a new sound, a concept in art and music that represented a new way of thinking about life on planet earth. With Devo, I think we did just that. Farewell to the first 50, Let’s get the next 50 started!”

DAVID BOWIE’s 1973 LP ALLADIN SANE, his 6th,
celebrates its 50th birthday on 20 April 1973.
For this special occasion the masterwork (Top-10 Bowie album in Turn Up The Volume‘s Bowie book will be re-released with a vinyl picture disc and a half-speed mastered black vinyl edition on 14 April. Pre-order details here.
This new pressing of Aladdin Sane was cut on a customised late Neumann VMS80 lathe with “fully recapped electronics” from 192kHz restored masters of the original master tapes, with no additional processing on transfer. Both vinyl editions are cut from the same master, which means the picture disc is actually half-speed mastered too, although although the half-speed black vinyl is going to sound better than the picture disc.

Last year Swedish post-punk mavericks VIAGRA BOYS
scored big time with their third full length CAVE WORLD.

As is totally normal in recent marketing years, deluxe editions come
some months after the original releases to boost sales of both. Also
normal is that most deluxes aren’t worth the money as the added music
varies from mediocre to bad, to totally worthless (I don’t own any). If it
was ace music it would have been on the LP’s first release, right?
But as we know, the moment you say normal something abnormal pops up.
Like here. The new expanded Cave World issue features 4 splendid new tracks,
I repeat: 4 splendid new tracks. Here they come.
– IT AIN’T ENOUGH –
Viagra schizophrenia.
.
– STRETCH MY ARMS –
A moony ballad. Come again.
A moony ballad.

– MILK FARM –
The boys as we know them.

– ONLY FRIEND –
Another moony ballad. Come again.
Another moony ballad.

The Fab Four‘s seventh LP, REVOLVER was released on 5 August 1966. Following the release of Rubber Soul the group had embarked on what was to be their final UK concert tour and following a lengthy break, they returned to Abbey Road to record continually for three months. Having been longer in the studio had paid off with greater creativity and experimentation and with John and Paul in fine form as writers. George also made his mark with three of his compositions appearing on a Beatles album for the first time.
The 100% pure masterpiece album is the latest Beatles album to be re-released as
a remixed and expanded deluxe box set following ‘Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’
in 2017, ‘White Album’ (2018), ‘Abbey Road’ (2019) and ‘Let It Be’ (2021).
Content: All 14 tracks on the original album have been newly mixed by Giles Martin (the son of the genial Beatles producer George Martin) and engineer Sam Okell in stereo and Dolby Atmos, while the album’s original mono mix has been sourced from its 1966 mono master tape. The physical and digital super deluxe ‘Revolver’ collections also feature the album’s original mono mix, 28 early takes from the sessions and three home demos. There is also a four-track EP with new stereo mixes and remastered original mono mixes for ‘Paperback Writer’ and ‘Rain’.
The ‘Revolver’ special edition will be available in three formats – ‘Super Deluxe’, ‘Deluxe’ and ‘Standard’. Release on vinyl, CD and digitally on 26 October. Pre-order info here
