Pickup currently unavailable at Dawson Street
2LP - Indies Exclusive Strictly Limited Edition Double Red Vinyl.
The complete recordings of the legendary Marc And The Mambas run of three live performances given at The Duke Of York's Theatre in London's West End in 1983.
Restored from the original VHS tape recordings made by the late Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson (Throbbing Gristle, Coil), these remain the only recordings that exist of Marc And The Mambas performing live.
Originally released in 2012 on Marc Almond's (Soft Cell) own Strike Force Entertainment label as a CD/DVD set (long sold out), this edition, presented on vinyl for the first time, contains the 17 tracks from the SFE CD release, expanded to include the two bonus DVD-only tracks: 'Près Des Ramparts De Séville' and 'Jacky'.
Completely remastered for vinyl by Martin Bowes (The Cage Studios).
A combination of the chanson and torch songs which he still sings today, over piano, strings and woodwind-accompanied compositions.
"It's quite a spectacle, especially when Almond hits his sweet spot of sinister lyrics, declared pompously over a droned string arrangement...
Early signs of the full-on showtune and classical rearrangements that make up Almond's current albums are evident"(Record Collector).
Presented on heavyweight 180gm double vinyl in a deluxe glossy gatefold sleeve featuring the extensive reminiscence by Marc Almond himself from the 2012 CD release.Also included is a reproduction of the 16-page programme printed for the three concerts in 1983.
The stunning cover painting by Val Denham is exclusive to this release.
