Formed in Sheffield in 1977 The Human League are one of the most renowned English synth-pop bands. Initially an experimental electronic outfit, the group signed to Virgin Records in 1979 and attained widespread commercial success with their third album Dare in 1981. The album contained four hit singles, including the UK/US number one hit “Don’t You Want Me”.

Under Oakey’s leadership, the Human League have evolved into a commercially successful New Pop band, with a line-up including female vocalists Joanne Catherall and Susan Ann Sulley. Since 1978, the Human League have released nine studio albums, two remix albums, one live album, six EPs, 30 singles and several compilation albums. They have had five albums and 15 Top 20 singles and had sold more than 20 million records worldwide by 2010.

This set contains their albums from their time with Virgin Records and all records come in coloured vinyl (chosen by the band) and in tip on sleeves, all housed in a sturdy box with a poster. The band have just completed a sold-out UK tour playing Dare in its entirety.

Format: 5LP (Coloured vinyl: Turquoise/Trans Lime/Yellow/Trans Red/Crystal)

Message from Ships Have Sailed:

This song is a special one to me, and it has been for a very long time. If you've been on this journey you know we don't really release covers - I chanced into recording this one, and then found out that today is the 30th anniversary of the song's original release. There was no way I couldn't recognize that by releasing these two re-imagined versions in this exact moment.

A brand new dark synthwave track from the original artists who brought the world "Streets". Moonrunner83's signature and smooth synth production, Megan McDuffee's soaring ethereal vocals, and saxophone from Mike Clark, the legend himself.

Night Shift by Francci is about dreams, love and decisions. It tells a story about a man that's having troubles with her loved one, and because of that, he receives an answer from his dreams telling that she's the one and that she was never going to abandon him, after that he decides to tell her about this dream at his work, which he works in the night shift.

The song was written alongside collaborator Paulo 'Deleux' Santos, a long lasting friend of the producer, as well as additional production from Bezebra, who helped shaped the sound of the guitar lines and brass. Night Shift is the debut single by Francci on Aztec Records and the first cut from his upcoming LP Life Of Synth coming out December 2022.
