Expanded 2CD reissues and coloured vinyl • SDE-exclusive bonus CD single

London Records will issue brand new two-CD deluxe editions of the Fine Young Cannibals two studio albums in December.

The band’s debut single ‘Johnny Come Home’ was a top ten hit in 1985 and the self-titled debut album reached number 11 in the UK charts the same year after further singles were issued, including a cover of Elvis Presley’s ‘Suspicious Minds’.

In 1989, Fine Young Cannibals hit the commercial stratosphere, particularly in America, with The Raw & The Cooked. The first two singles ‘She Drives Me Crazy’ and ‘Good Thing’ both were number one singles in the USA and were top ten hits in Britain (and around the world). The band split in 1992 although they did record a new single, ‘The Flame’, for a 1996 best of.

The new London Records 2CD expanded editions go well beyond Edsel’s now out-of-print deluxe editions from 2013, with 29 bonus tracks for the first album (including B-sides, remixes, BBC sessions and more) and 22 extra tracks for The Raw & The Cooked.

The albums have been remastered from original analogue master tapes by Phil Kinrade at Alchemy and as well as the 2CD expanded editions, both will be reissued on coloured vinyl with the debut on red and The Raw & The Cooked on white vinyl.


Orders with the SDE shop come with a FREE Johnny Come Home CD single!

SDE is delighted to offer these reissues for sale on the SDE shop with each CD or vinyl order shipping with a FREE and exclusive limited CD single of ‘Johnny Come Home’. This represents the first time the original 1985 single has been issued on this format and the four-track CD (original artwork on a card sleeve) will offer the single mix, the original extended mix, the second 1985 12-inch remix (later known as ‘That Other Mix’) and a live version. Note that the remix 12-inch isn’t on the expanded two-CD set.

The official Fine Young Cannibals store does not have this limited bonus CD, but does offer each product with a Roland Gift signed print.

The Fine Young Cannibals reissues are released on 18 December 2020 (was 11 December). Order from the SDE shop using this link or the buttons below.
