Re: New London Boy Sax


In 1989 PSB worked with the jazz musician Courtney Pine who played saxophone on several songs on their tour and I think it sounded fantastic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxGHxMweuSM Jump to 3:30 for a real nice saxophone outro to 'One more chance'


That version and that outro are EPIC ...

Party in the Blitz: I can't listen to it. 3/10
Through You: I love the vocals, very The Onzio style. Not keen on mastering, the bass is disturbing. Too long. 6/10

Re: The month of the release date

I remember this interview and they stated April 2024.
This is some kind of hint, even if they could change their mind obviously.

I could agree on this part, considering the italian Nobel Prize winner Dario Fò.
But if someone was far from deserve this prize and won it, we shouldn't add mistakes on mistakes.
Neil Tennant is great as he is.

They played it in Milan too.
Not exactly Milan, it was Villa Arconati, Castellazzo di Bollate.

Re: New version of 'Purple Zone' by Soft Cell and PSB


And what is an old version of "Purple Zone"? I guess this is some kind of simplification. They mean that HNO includes "Purple Zone" and it will be also released a single - probably a new version featuring PSB.


Yes it is not a very well done announcement!
I lost a few hours trying to find out ...

Re: New version of 'Purple Zone' by Soft Cell and PSB



Regardless, as we have all seen here: https://www.petshopboys-forum.com/viewtopic.php?t=35467&start=210#p610998 . . .

. . . the first "Greatest Hits" tour (of a band that had its first public single release in 1984) is apparently getting in motion to meet the launch date in Milano on 10 May 2022 ...

Re: The songs that could have been


This is the stuff I really love not only in PSB songs but in other artists’ works too.
The song I wanted to mention was Home and dry but minimal said it first.
Also Between two islands - I guess, it ends with a very sweet guitar solo which I loved to be lasted for minutes.


I agree with both ...

Re: PSB @ Zara


I was planning to source it via a friend in Bahrain (if it was to be cheaper, and it isn't), and surprise surprise, Zara is selling the Super Vinyl?!?!

Looks like this is a more complicate commercial ...
