Are the 2024 remixes on CD? I don’t see them listed, apart from on the BluRay.

Correct, it's on the 2CD edition! I'll change that in the OP.Spittingcat wrote: ↑Thu 18 Jul 2024, 2:54 pm Are the 2024 remixes on CD? I don’t see them listed, apart from on the BluRay.

Would be interesting to learn how the inclusion of Neil came about (since we know he and Jimmy were not exactly friends for decades)!
Perhaps Jimmy had no creative input into this reissue?!

I’m not buying all that crap for one track. Hit me up when it’s on YouTube.
I sincerely *love* Disco 2 and listen to it straight through regularly.

The cultural significance of this album is immense to some. At the time, BB represented what a lot of people felt but could not express.ChoonHound wrote: ↑Thu 18 Jul 2024, 9:29 pm I’m not buying all that crap for one track. Hit me up when it’s on YouTube.
However, if you don't like their music then yes, it's a lot to spend to hear a snippet of Neil's voice.

It’s a superb album. You’re missing out if you’ve never sat down and had a listen. Also, the cultural significance of Bronski Beat themselves and this album cannot be ignored.ChoonHound wrote: ↑Thu 18 Jul 2024, 9:29 pm I’m not buying all that crap for one track. Hit me up when it’s on YouTube.

There's a lovely circle of forgiveness here, implied if not actual, from Jimmy trying to "out" the Boys years ago, through Neil later coming out, to Neil's friendship or possibly more with the remixer, Tom Stephan (Superchumbo). It also goes nicely with Brandon Flowers' "I Can Change" sampling Smalltown Boy and including Neil's spoken contribution.

I love Bronski Beat. Smalltown boy & Tell me why are still amazing imo.

Releases 18 October 2024.
Can you add that to the original post? It's the 1 detail I'm interested in.

Obviously like any other release it will be put on Youtube and Spotify etc.ChoonHound wrote: ↑Thu 18 Jul 2024, 9:29 pm I’m not buying all that crap for one track. Hit me up when it’s on YouTube.
Could you imagine if PSB gave Please this treatment though?
I think that would be amazing, I'd eat it up.
Let's be positive and show some enthusiasm, because PSB management could judge this kind of
comment as the diehard fans aren't interested in deluxe reissues. (Which you're entitled to feel but I beg to differ)

Relax boys, I like the album. It’s a seminal work (no allusion intended). Genuinely amazing songs.
