All the press about the Strands re-issue has sent me back listening to various Michael Head records. I loved 'HMS Fable' when it came out, but never took to '...Here's Tom With the Weather'. Listening to it tonight for the first time in at least ten years and it turns out I was so, so, wrong.
Keen to hear 'The Olde World'.

Also, I know album sales are low and it's the midweeks, but 'The Magical World of the Strands' is at 23 in the midweeks. Was surprised how many copies my local HMV had.

its been reissued?
― Cosmic Slop, Monday, 3 August 2015 19:53 (eight years ago) link
Yeah, was out on Friday. The album plus the b-sides from the "Something Like You" single. 'The Olde World', the companion record, is out separately at some point.

yeah I pre-ordered the old world when kitchen person told me about it but didn't know the actual album was getting a reissue.Already have the cd but might get it on vinyl if its available on that format
― Cosmic Slop, Monday, 3 August 2015 19:58 (eight years ago) link
There is vinyl. I also already have the original CD so passed on the re-issue.

in all the press re the reissues that i have seen, seems that the the corner of miles and gil has been just about airbrushed out of existence.
has the album been disowned (due to the noel love as mentioned earlier!?) ?

ffsThe Olde World postponed to january 2016 now

It's very Shack, isn't it? Get a bit of momentum going then delay the release by months.
― michaellambert, Sunday, 4 October 2015 20:34 (eight years ago) link
I got an email a few months ago from Amazon saying its not even got a release date now
