Yes, and as with Creep years later and The Beautiful South's Don't Marry Her, it was always fun when a DJ played the wrong version.

Btw, we include that extra bit of information only because Mr. Lowe has openly talked about getting that one wrong.

Yes, vinyl has become very big business again, also read recently, cassettes sales are increasing.
We are very guilty when it comes to Deluxe Editions, just to have everything in one place. But not really interested in knowing every demo version and outtake.

It's not something we have participated in, so don't have first hand experience. But as always we love the biting lyrics of this band.

Don't think we know them, will have to check, thanks.

Yes, that's probably a better idea to start with. We can then work our way up to the albums and EPs of the songs that impress us the most.

In the new year (once we've finished listening to 2025 new releases) we will put together a playlist for ourselves of albums by artists discovered on this challenge.
It will include the album by Mark Sharp & the Bicycle Thieves.
