Julian Cope / Saint Julian reissue
Julian Cope‘s 1987 album Saint Julian will be reissued as a 2CD Deluxe Edition on 4 February 2013.
This was the third solo studio album for the ex-Teardrop Explodes frontman and his first for Island Records. It delivered two UK top 40 hit singles in the form of World Shut Your Mouth and Trampolene (a third Eve’s Volcano (Covered In Sin) peaked just short at number 41).
This reissue features a bonus disc of b-sides and remixes and amounts to a coupling of the original album with the 1997 rarities compilation The Followers Of Saint Julian, although Spacehopper Annexe wasn’t on the ’97 release.
There was a 2004 Japanese-only release of Saint Julian which is effectively replicated by this new deluxe edition. It is not known at present whether the 2013 reissue is a new remaster.
