Wang Chung - To Live and Die in L.A. (2LP Deluxe Edition)

[drivel]

Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of To Live and Die in L.A. with a 2LP Deluxe Edition pressing on Opaque Orange L.A. Sunset Vinyl. The Deluxe Edition track listing has been re-sequenced with vocal tracks and instrumental tracks interspersed similar to how they flow throughout the film making for a “cinematic” listening experience.

The track listing includes 2 songs from Wang Chung’s 1984 breakthrough album Point on the Curve, “Dance Hall Days” and “Wait” which were both featured in the film. “Dance Hall Days” was left of the original soundtrack release.

Also included is the stunning instrumental track, “This One’s for You, White Boy” which is making its commercial debut on this vinyl release.

The 2nd disc features bonus tracks including extended and instrumental mixes of the theme song, “To Live and Die in L.A.” as well as an extended mixes of “Wake Up Stop Dreaming”, and “Wait”. Also featured on disc 2 is a 4-minute edit of the ultra-cinematic “City of Angels” and a rarity “Nervous Mix – B-Side” of the song.

As an added bonus, 2 demo songs recorded in 1985, “Joy” and “So Cold” are also included here. These songs did not end up being used in the film and have never been released before now.
