Go West – Dancing On the Couch – Vinyl LP

Deluxe Edition

First released in 1987, ‘Dancing On The Couch’ was Go West’s follow-up to their platinum certified self-titled debut album. The album finds Peter Cox and Richard Drummie continuing to explore their signature pop-soul sound, and includes the singles ‘True Colours’, ‘I Want To Hear It From You’, ‘From Baltimore To Paris’, and ‘The King Is Dead’ (with guest backing vocals from Kate Bush). This new deluxe edition includes the original album newly remastered by producer Gary Stevenson, a second CD of B-sides, rarities, and previously unreleased material, a third CD featuring the Hammersmith Odeon show recorded on the ‘Runaway Train’ tour in 1987, plus a DVD featuring promo videos from the period and the Hammersmith concert (on DVD for the first time). Three CDs and a DVD with a 20-page booklet featuring photographs, lyrics, and new liner notes by the band, housed in a 7″ sized hardcover book. This new expanded edition release marks the first vinyl reissue of ‘Dancing On The Couch’, featuring the original album newly remastered by producer Gary Stevenson, plus a second LP of B-sides, rarities, and remixes including a previously unreleased extended mix of ‘The King Is Dead’. Cut by Barry Grint at AIR Mastering and pressed on 180g clear vinyl, housed in a wide spine sleeve with printed inner bags.
