Prefab Sprout Reissues

[omar]

Right now only on remastered vinyl but deluxe cd editions are also expected later this year. The albums in question are Swoon (1984), From Langley Park To Memphis (1988), Jordan The Comeback (1990) and Life Of Surprises (The Best Of) (1991). Steve McQueen is not listed as a 2CD deluxe version was released some time ago. The LPs will have the regular track listings but most of us would probably want the cd versions with all the remixes and b sides, i'm sure. Release date for the vinyl albums is Aug. 30th.

Steve McQueen is not listed as a 2CD deluxe version was released some time ago.

Yes, and if these expected CD reissues of the other albums are in that same style, then there will be no period extras whatsoever - just the whole album again, solo acoustic from Paddy on his own. No b-sides, remixes, rarities. Even if they are not in the same style and they do contain all the bonus material, that means the debut album will be the only one that doesn't have that treatment, so it seems like a no-win situation. They should be putting out a big CD box set at this point, let's be honest.
