Wet Wet Wet reveal full track listing for Popped In Souled Out super deluxe

Wet Wet Wet / "Popped in Souled Out" super deluxe edition

A month on from the announcement that Wet Wet Wet‘s 1987 debut, Popped In Souled Out, is to be reissued as a super deluxe edition, the band have now confirmed exactly what the content will be on each of the five discs included in the set.

Scroll down for the full track listing, which reveals five bonus tracks appended to the album proper, including three single versions. ‘The Memphis Sessions‘ on disc two also includes bonus tracks, two of which were early versions of singles: Wishing I Was Lucky and Home And Away (which became Angel Eyes).

The ‘B-Sides, Remixes and a Number One’ disc includes 13 tracks and features two remixes of both Wishing I Was Lucky and Sweet Little Mystery along with the demo of Angel Eyes (Home And Away) which featured on the 12-inch and CD of the single release. The “number one” on this disc is of course the band’s charity cover of The BeatlesWith A Little Help From My Friends.

Fans will probably be most excited about the ‘Unreleased and Rarities‘ disc which includes 14 tracks from early sessions in 1984/5. Tagged on the end are some rare dub mixes, although notable by its absence is the infamous PWL Phil Harding remix of Sweet Little Mystery. This mix stripped away the entire band – and replaced it with the ‘house’ PWL sound – keeping only Marti’s voice. The band refused to release it at the time and when SDE queried it’s lack of inclusion on this 30th anniversary celebration, the response was as follows “We got it out of the tape archive and had a listen to it, it wasn’t us then and it’s not us now, so we’ve decided to not to include it“.

Finally, the ‘Pop It In The Player!’ DVD is packed with promo videos, TV appearances (Top Of The Pops, Whistle Test) and new interviews with the band.

The Popped In Souled Out super deluxe edition will be released on 22 September 2017.
