Thrilling new releases in 2010 [2010-04-21]
Ed & Co are planning a set of exciting releases for the second half of 2010! What do you think of
a set of studio recorded demos for the untitled - and never released! - follow up album to
Everybody's Got To from early 1989 - including some tracks from the coinciding tour,
recorded by a Swedish radio station. (Hooray! ;)
Also, there is a great live performance recording of The Aints from 1991 (predating the
Ascension album). Apparently with good sound quality too!
A bunch of studio demos from the Jean Lee album sessions has also been discovered as well as the
debut live performance of that album - with horn section and cello and all!
Finally there's some radio sessions from around the world, a series of studio record unreleased b-sides from the mid 1990s and Clowns live stuff from 1980s...
and more, says Ed.
A lot to look forward to! :)
