Simply Red so far have released all their albums as deluxe editions, except for the last three, which were released under their own label simplyred.com.
At last we finally get news about the missing album being released as deluxe editions under Edsel Records on 30th June, and it seems the news are very good for Simply Red fans!
While
Simplified (2005) and
Stay (2007) have been expanded to a 2CD+DVD set,
Home (2003) is even a 3CD+DVD set! The audio bonuses are basically all the B-sides which have been released along with the singles off the albums, including several remixes and live tracks (for
Stay there's also one new song not included in the original album), while each DVD features a Mick Hucknall recent interview commenting on the album, the official promo videos for the album's singles along with some "making of" and album EPKs and, most surprisingly, some TV performances taken from BBC archives!
This Edsel campaign about Simply Red will also feature the re-release of two concert videos, released at the time only as DVDs. Now
Home Live In Sicily and
Cuba! are re-released as 4-discs set each: one BluRay (in fact the original films are in HD), one DVD and two CDs with the whole concert in audio only. Of course the original bonus documentaries and features are present too.
