After the huge success of the first Communards album and the Europe-wide # 1 hit “Don’t Leave Me This Way”, Jimmy Somerville and Richard Coles returned in 1987 with second album “Red” and another smash hit with their Hi-NRG version of “Never Can Say Goodbye”.
This slip-cased 2 CD edition features as many of the non-album single sides and remixes as can fitted be on (including all of the live ‘album’ “Storm Paris”, originally released on three 12” singles), selected by Somerville expert Heiko Bollman. Many tracks appear on CD for the first time.
The booklet contains the lyrics, photos, singles sleeves, and notes from Jimmy and Richard.
