Howard Jones / Cross That Line reissue

3CD+DVD deluxe • Coloured vinyl

Howard Jones‘ 1989 Cross That Line will be reissued as a four-disc deluxe edition in October.

Jones’ co-produced his fourth studio album with Ian Stanley, Chris Hughes and Ross Cullum – the Tears For Fears’ backroom boys – and it featured the singles The Prisoner and Everlasting Love. The latter was quite a big hit in America (#12) and the former still got to number thirty. It was sadly a different story in the UK, where all momentum had been lost due to the poor chart performance of the singles from 1986’s One to One.

The 3CD+DVD reissue (there is no other CD-based format) looks great, with a wealth of bonus remixes, instrumentals, edits and more – 22 of them previously unreleased. The DVD – NTSC, region-free – features an interview with Howard and promo videos.

There will also be a limited edition 140g silver-coloured vinyl. This features album-only.

Cross That Line will be reissued on 9 October 2020.
