Heaven 17 Interview: Part 2 with Martyn Ware and Glenn Gregory on the SDE Sofa

Part 2 of the SDE filmed interview with Martyn Ware & Glenn Gregory

Here is the second and final part (part one is here) of the interview as Heaven 17‘s Glenn Gregory and Martyn Ware visit SDE HQ and recline on the sofa to discuss topics such as why they never played live in the early days, dealing with commercial decline and the Virgin years in general…

I’m delighted to announce that this near hour-long interview (parts one and two combined) will be available to order a limited ‘keepsake’ printed edition SDE interview booklet. This follows the success of similar booklets for Paul McCartney, Roxy Music and Pete Burns. It is a limited edition with just 450 numbered copies SIGNED by Martyn Ware and Glenn Gregory and it is available to pre-order now, only via the SDE shop using this link or the button below.

The signed SDE interview booklet will ship on or around 29 March 2019, the same day the Play To Win: The Virgin Years CD and vinyl box box sets are released. There are no signed editions of the Play To Win CD box set left now, incidentally.
