A specially priced double CD set - Disc One is the original UK album, re-mastered from studio analog tapes and Disc Two collects singles, mixes, rareties and unreleased tracks.
Fronted by androgynous twins Jay and Michael Aston, the early recordings by Gene Loves Jezebel had an experimental edge that has kept the music fresh today.
Long unavailable, this edition is a specially priced double CD set which features recordings from their classic period. Disc one is the original UK album, re-mastered from studio analog tapes and Disc Two collects singles, mixes, rareties and unreleased tracks.
As expected from a Beggars Banquet re-issue, the packaging is comprehensive, with full track details, lyrics, unseen photos and new sleeve notes.
An alternative '80s classic 'Immigrant' was produced by John Leckie (contemporaneous with The Fall's 'This Nation's Saving Grace'), astute Stone Roses fans may find some of the drum sounds familiar.
'Immigrant' became an Indie no.1 album, featuring the full version of "Flame" produced by Steve Harley (Cockney Rebel) as well as two early drafts for songs performed for a John Peel BBC session.
