NEW ORDER ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE OF

EDUCATION ENTERTAINMENT RECREATION (LIVE AT ALEXANDRA PLACE)

 

To Be Released May 7

 

New Order announces the release of a special performance, their only UK show of 2018 (November 9) at London’s Alexandra Palace and the first live show released on Blu-ray from the band’s now established line-up of Bernard Sumner, Stephen Morris, Gillian Gilbert, Phil Cunningham, and Tom Chapman.

 

Sonically and visually spectacular, spanning 2 hours 20 minutes, the show joyously mixed New Order classics, their latest acclaimed album (2015’s Music Complete), and covers of Joy Division’s finest.

 

Opening with “Singularity” from Music Complete, they eased back in time to 1993’s “Regret,” to “Love Vigilantes” from 1985’s Low-Life to “Ultraviolence” from 1983’s Power, Corruption and Lies.

 

Later, their power over the dance floor was proven by sublime performances in the manner of the celebrated extended 12-inch remixes they are synonymous with such as “True Faith,” “Blue Monday” and “Temptation,” before a three-song Joy Division mini set to end.

 

EDUCATION ENTERTAINMENT RECREATION will be released on May 7 on various formats including 2-CD audio, 2-CD audio plus the film on Blu-ray, 3-LPs, and a limited edition boxed set featuring all formats with a book and art prints.

 

A career-spanning celebration, the band were on relentlessly sparkling form, blending eras and genres and redefining themselves as perhaps the most vital British band of recent decades. Lauded by both fans and critics, it is a timely reminder of the connection we are all missing from live music and the nights we have to look forward to.

Bernard Sumner – lead vocals, guitar

Stephen Morris – drums

Gillian Gilbert – keyboards

Phil Cunningham – guitars

Tom Chapman – bass

ROD STEWART PLAYS ‘CUPID’ FOR VALENTINE’S DAY

 

16-Track Love-Themed Digital Playlist Features Some Of The Legendary Singer-Songwriter’s Most Memorable Love Songs, Along With Five Rarities That Will Make Their Streaming Debut

 

Available February 12 From Rhino

 

Pre-Save Now

 

LOS ANGELES – Sir Rod Stewart loves to sing about love. It's a subject the legendary singer-songwriter has explored consistently throughout his career as one of the best-selling recording artists of all time. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, Stewart's fan-adored hits are just right for the moment.

 

"I've always been a hopeless romantic, and this list is perfect for that candlelit date night," says Stewart. "No need to be a DJ, just press play and focus on your lover."

 

Available for streaming on February 12, Rhino aims straight for the heart with CUPID, a new love-themed digital playlist from Stewart. The 16-track collection mixes some of his best-known love songs with five rarities that have never been available digitally until now. In celebration of the release, a new Valentine's Day-themed Instagram filter with audio from the song "Cupid" will make its debut, along with a new lyric video.

 

CUPID sets the mood with indelible songs like "Tonight's The Night (Gonna Be Alright)" (#1US/#5 UK) and "The First Cut Is The Deepest" (#1UK/#21US), both from Stewart's multi-platinum album, A Night On The Town (1976). That prolific era is revisited for "You're In My Heart (The Final Acclaim)" (#3UK/#4US) from the follow-up, Footloose & Fancy Free (1977), the singer's second multi-platinum solo album. Meanwhile, the collection's title track, "Cupid," is a bonus track taken from the 2009 Expanded Edition of Stewart's 19th studio album, Human (2001).

 

The playlist marks the digital debut for several songs, including two b-sides: "Love In The Right Hands," which accompanied the unplugged version of "Reason To Believe" in 1993, and "One Night," which was the flip side to "Have I Told You Lately."

 

CUPID taps two of Stewart's best-loved film contributions with the Top 10 US hit, "Love Touch" (1986) from Legal Eagles and the #3 US hit "Faith Of The Heart" (1998) from the Patch Adams Soundtrack; the latter is making its digital debut. A number of songs on the playlist spotlight music the singer released during the 1990s, including the Top 40 hit "This" from A Spanner In The Works (1995), "For The First Time" from the platinum-certified If We Fall In Love Tonight (1996) and his tender cover of Van Morrison's "Have I Told You Lately" from the platinum-certified Vagabond Heart (1991).

 

One of the most talented singers in rock and pop music, Stewart has sold more than 250 million records worldwide during a stellar career that includes nine #1 albums and 26 Top 10 singles in the UK; plus 17 Top 10 albums and 16 Top 10 singles in the US.

Pet Shop Boys Announce First DVD And 2-CD Issue Of Discovery: Live In Rio 1994

Filmed In Rio, Brazil During The Duo’s 1994 Discovery Tour

To Be Released On April 30

 

Pet Shop Boys announce the release on DVD and 2-CD of their Discovery: Live in Rio 1994 concert, recorded towards the end of their 1994 tour of Singapore, Australia and Latin America. The release date is April 23.

Previously only available on VHS, this is the first time that fans will be able to experience this classic concert on DVD and listen to the audio on CDs. The show was filmed by Brazilian director Roberto Berliner with a local TV crew in December 1994 in front of a wildly enthusiastic Rio audience on PSB’s first visit to Brazil.

The setlist includes classic hits including “West End Girls,” “Suburbia,” “Being Boring,” “Go West,” “Rent” and “Always On My Mind,” as well as surprising juxtapositions of PSB songs and contemporary hits including: “One In A Million/Mr Vain” and “Left To My Own Devices/Rhythm Of The Night.” A cover of Blur’s “Girls And Boys” is another spirited highlight of this spectacular performance.

The DVD and CDs document a show very different in feel to the two ground-breaking tours that preceded it in 1989 and 1991. Following on from the release of their albums, Very and Disco 2, Pet Shop Boys decided to focus the two-hour set largely on uplifting songs with a party vibe, taking inspiration from visits to the New York underground house club, The Sound Factory. Discovery saw Pet Shop Boys with four dancers, backing singer Katie Kissoon and two Latin percussionists embrace spontaneity in a way they never had before.

Chris Lowe said at the time: “We’re more free-spirited on this tour. We party on down. It’s not a totally choreographed, staged and rehearsed show. I suppose it is more rock n roll in its attitude. You get to express yourself. (Laughs). And to take your clothes off.”

Neil Tennant added: “In the past we were always removed from the audience by theatrical convention. This time we are us onstage.”

A new booklet is packaged with the DVD and CDs, featuring candid on-tour photographs, an interview by Chris Heath conducted during tour rehearsals, and an exclusive on-tour diary by Neil Tennant.

The DVD and CDs package is available for pre-order from today.
