Gang of Four: Entertainment! Reissued & released in May


http://www.rhinorecords.c...mber=78428

Some of the most memorable music of the late-'70s British postpunk era came courtesy of Gang Of Four. The band's 1979 debut, Entertainment!, poured punk, funk, and politics into a groundbreaking sound that continues to influence such worthy modern rock descendents as Hot Hot Heat, The Rapture, and !!!. Rhino's 2005 issue of Entertainment! has been digitally remastered and expanded with bonus material, including the rare Yellow EP and four previously unreleased tracks. Booklet contains vintage photos and liner notes by Our Band Could Be Your Life author Michael Azzerad.

Their classic debut LP has been reissued twice before but I think this third reissue is the keeper , adding the Yellow ep plus 4 unreleased tracks! I'm sure NWF is looking forward to this..

I think I'm drawing the line here. I've bought this album four times over the years and still own three of the versions, so I think I've already contributed my share to Jon King's and Andy Gill's royalty cheques.

Everybody else ought to buy it, though - it's absolutely essential, as they say...
