Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark Peel Sessions 1979-1983 - RSD 2025 - Sealed UK vinyl LP album (LP record)
|
| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), founded by Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys, emerged from Liverpool in the late ‘70s and are rightly regarded as one of the original synth-pop outfits of the following decade. Notably also one of the more successful, they have enjoyed at least 20 hit singles and over 40 million records sold to date. Their early years were highly influential and the Peel Sessions 1979-1983, acclaimed by many fans as the band at the height of their powers, provides a snapshot of OMD at arguably their most vital, focused and interesting; full of highly imaginative, slightly left-field, awkward but accomplished pop, captured by the BBC in four different sessions (one in 1979, two in 1980 and one in 1983). While this is the first time any of these tracks have been pressed on vinyl, it is also the first time that every single track from their sessions with John Peel have been issued together. The original CD version of this collection, issued in 2000, omitted the second recording of “Bunker Soldiers,” recorded as part of the 1983 session.
Mastered (where necessary) and cut to lacquer by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios, for Record Store Day 2025.
