THE QUIREBOYS To Re-Record Debut Album, A Bit Of What You Fancy
April 6, 2020, 4 years ago
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of A Bit Of What You Fancy, originally released in 1990, The Quireboys are re-recording their debut album.
"We may be at home, it may be dark times, but we’re back in the studio re-recording our iconic first album, A Bit Of What You Fancy, with the current line up and rock 'n' roll sound," says The Quireboys. "The new recording will prove to be powerful, inspirational and full of all the quality a modern day recording can anticipate."
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 two live bonus tracks, "Man On The Loose" and "Mayfair", while the Vinyl Collectors Item will be restricted to a run of 750 copies only, in Blue Vinyl.
Both 30th Anniversary Collectors items are on sale now via Off Yer Rocka Recordings.
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."
