T’Pau Back To The ‘Bridge Of Spies’
T’Pau, the British band who enjoyed huge success around the world in the late 1980s and early 1990s, will have their multi-platinum 1987 debut album ‘Bridge Of Spies’ reissue by Virgin EMI/UMC on November 6. The new deluxe edition will be available as a 2 CD/1 DVD package with extensive additional material.
The album contained the band’s introductory top five US (and then UK) hit ‘Heart And Soul,’ the signature international No. 1 ‘China In Your Hand’ and the further hits ‘Valentine,’ the live ‘Sex Talk’ and ‘I Will Be With You.’ The title track was also released in the US, Australia and Germany.
The album reached No. 1 in the UK in November 1987, spending 59 weeks on the chart in total, and nearly six months on the American chart, under the title ‘T’Pau.’ The band went on to further top ten UK albums with ‘Rage’ and ‘The Promise’ and further top 20 hit singles with ‘Secret Garden’ (1988) and ‘Whenever You Need Me’ (1991).
The expanded edition of ‘Bridge of Spies’ will feature a remastered version of the original album, singles, B-sides, hard-to-find remixes, live tracks and demo sessions, including the previously unreleased fan favourite ‘Maggie.’ The DVD will feature a T’Pau live concert recorded at Hammersmith Odeon in London in 1988 and all six promotional videos of the album’s singles, newly digitised.
