Release date: November 7th, 2005

SonyBMG Music Entertainment (UK) Limited today announced what is positioned to be the record company's most extensive album reissue campaign to date with one of Britain's most influential and successful recording duos in music history - Eurythmics.

All eight Eurythmics studio albums have been digitally re-mastered by Dave Stewart. On average, each album features 4-7 bonus tracks, including one previously unreleased cover version. The reissues are scheduled for UK nationwide release on November 7, 2005. All eight albums will be released separately and as a Collector's Deluxe Boxed Set.

The eight original studio reissue albums will coincide with the CD release 'Eurythmics Ultimate Collection'. The latter is a 'Best Of' compilation of all their hit singles which have been digitally re-mastered. The Ultimate Collection will also include the brand new single 'I've Got A Life' and the song 'Was It Just Another Love Affair?' (the latter two are new songs that were recorded in 2005).

Eurythmics are the UK's most successful duo ever. Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart have sold over 75 million records and had over 20 international hits worldwide. They have achieved unparalleled global commercial and critical success with No.1 singles and albums both sides of the Atlantic and all over the world - the holy grail of any UK act. On top of the sold out world tours Eurythmics have won innumerable awards including 4 Grammy's, 11 BRITS, 5 Ivor Novello's, 1 Oscar, 2 Golden Globes and the Outstanding Contribution to the British Music at the 1998 BRITS.

Eurythmics played a large part in shaping the landscape of 80's and 90's music. The influence spreads wider than being innovators of the synth pop genre they are often credited for. Their songs have been pillaged by the biggest names in music; P.Diddy, Marilyn Manson, Utah Saints, Redman (Wu Tang), Faith Evans and Pink, amongst others. This doesn't include the unofficial usage that's gladly unavoidable within the dance and hip hop genre. Just this summer Ibiza has been lit up with several huge versions of a record first made in 1983 .'Sweet Dreams???'

'Eurythmics Ultimate Collection' features 18 hit singles, plus the two new bonus tracks including the forthcoming single 'I've Got A Life' plus the song 'Was It Just Another Love Affair?'. Every track has been painstakingly digitally re-mastered from the original master tapes with Dave Stewart overseeing the mastering process. The result is state-of-the-art Eurythmics classics re-mastered to the highest standard quality possible.

In August 2005, post that critically acclaimed and emotive Live 8 appearance, Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart returned to the studio for the first time in five years to record new material and the forthcoming single 'I've Got A Life'.
