Howard Jones / Human’s Lib and Dream Into Action super deluxe box sets
It’s funny to think that despite signing him originally and enjoying the fruits of his hit albums in the 1980s, Warners have never issued a deluxe edition of a Howard Jones album. Perhaps frustrated by the inaction, Jones took matters into his own hands about seven years ago and licensed his music from Warners and put out a series of box sets on his own dtox label. Last year the major sold Howard Jones’ catalogue to Cherry Red and the latter have finally announced what we all knew was coming: some very extensive reissues of the first two albums Human’s Lib (1984) and Dream Into Action (1985).
