QUIREBOYS, THE
A BIT OF WHAT YOU FANCY (30TH ANNIVERSARY VERSION) (OFF YER ROCKA)
The Quireboys are set to release a Limited Run of a totally new Re-Recorded version of A Bit Of What You Fancy to mark the albums 30th Anniversary - We live in strange times and from the darkness there is a beautifully shining beacon of rock'n'roll light.
Our favourite hard-working quartet have been back in the studio re-recording their iconic first album with the current Gypsy Rock n Roll sound of The Quireboys.
The new recording will prove to be powerful, inspirational and full of all the quality a modern-day recording can anticipate.
Following the incredible 35 & live show at The O2 Academy Forum London in September 2019, the boys were blown away at how the crowds still respond to the music after 30 years, the atmosphere was electric and hearing the whole crowd singing the timeless tracks cemented that unity between the audience, the band and the music.
A Bit Of What You Fancy remains one of the greatest rock albums of all time, loved by fans and critics alike, the singles and many of the album tracks can be heard to this day on rock radio, the music remains timeless and is almost certainly guaranteed to fill the dance floor at any party or rock bar.
At the time of release back in 1990 the band managed to score a very respectable Number 2 in the UK Album Charts, this time around they're gunning for Number 1, everywhere they can.
This is a must for all Quireboys fans worldwide and while this will be available on CD & Vinyl, both will be on limited runs, with a new modern cover and a couple of live bonus tracks on the CD.
The CD will feature 2 Live Bonus Tracks, "Man on the Loose" and "Mayfair". The album will be available on Black Vinyl with a very special Vinyl Collector's item in Blue Vinyl available too.
The Quireboys will tour the UK and Europe Dec 20 / April 21 performing the whole album in its entirety.
Dates will be announced soon. The Quireboys frontman Spike commented, "It's where it all began, it was an incredible album that launched our careers, but the way we sound n play now doesn't give it the justice it needs.
Henceforth, it's been a pleasure updating it to our modern-day Gypsy Rock n Roll Sound.
I'm sure everyone will enjoy this new version in all its glory, marking its 30th Anniversary."
