Faces In The Fire (Play It Again Sam 40th Anniversary Edition)

A beautiful new edition of this long out-of-print album to celebrate the Play It Again Sam label’s 40th Anniversary. In fact the original was the label’s first ever release ( catalogue no. BIAS1 !).

Shipping out on or around July 1, 2023
Edition of 500
Official release date is 26th June. Pre-order here.

Edward Ka-Spel will play a solo show at Klang 30 on June 9/10. Tickets for both days available by writing to: klanggalerie@aon.at

For the occasion, Klang Galerie has produced a very small run of Live in Vienna 1988 CDs with a few copies also being sold through the website. Grab them while they last!  You can order them here.

Today’s BC Friday is about a release coming up in (hopefully) October as ‘The Concrete Diaries’ is set to appear on vinyl…in fact, three different shades of it no less.

The wait for a pressing to appear is mercifully much shorter now. A big thank you to Johnny at Witch Cat Records for making this happen. It’s available here: https://legendarypinkdots1.bandcamp.com and here: https://witchcatrecords.bandcamp.com

Witch Cat Records is excited to announce that Edward Ka-Spel’s The Concrete Diaries will soon be available on vinyl.

It will come in 3 different color variants. 100 available in each color.
– Classic Black
– Olive Green
– Pink Blob
Pre-Orders begin Friday May 5th. Records will be available in October.

*Picture of records are mock ups, and the finished product will more than likely look different.*

It’s Bandcamp Friday and what seems to be a real Spring Day at last, I’m happy to present the first new release of the year. All songs were written and recorded in the last month and the title is “A Carrington Event”.  For the foreseeable future, it’s download-only.

Even so, there is a pair of physical releases too. Firstly the last of ‘The Quarantine Series‘, “Songs Of Solitude” is ready for release in a lovingly homemade CD-R edition.

Finally, the Pink Dots’ historical collection, “Come Out From The Shadows Volume 3” has been expanded with rare tracks from long out-of-print anthology , sonically enhanced , re-ordered and given a new cover. It’s also available on pre-order as a CD-R.
