Blank & Jones announce so80s 10

Blank & Jones hit double figures with their long running SoEighties series, with the announcement of so80s 10, another three-disc compilation of extended versions of from the best decade in pop, the 1980s…

The tenth edition in this series contains over 30 remixes including the near 12-minute long version of the Sisters Of Mercy This Corrosion,  Pat Benatar’s Love Is A Battlefield,  and Laura Branigan’s Self Control. Sade make a rare outing on a remix compilation with the extended version of Sweetest Taboo, and the Pet Shop Boys‘ Love Comes Quickly, which somehow peaked at a lowly number 19 in the UK back in the day, is included in full-length Shep Pettibone Mastermix guise.

The extended version of The Cure’s Boys Don’t Cry is apparently gets its CD debut here and this set includes some favourites in the shape of the 12-inch versions of The Bangles‘ Walk Like An Egyptian and Soft Cell‘s Tainted Love/Where Did Our Love Go.

This comes with a 40-page booklet featuring all original cover art and many pictures of original tapes used for this compilation (no vinyl rips).

so80s 10 is released on 10 June 2016.
