Fans of Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt might like to know that the first four Everything But The Girl albums (1984-1988) have now been officially re-issued in the UK by Edsel/Demon as deluxed casebound 2xCDs with the original album on CD1, and b-sides, unreleased demos and radio sessions on CD2.
The booklet also carries lyrics, full session info, brand new liner notes by Ben and Tracey and rare photos and scans from their private collection. Each album is current ONLY on CD, although there are plans to issue them on download and possibly vinyl at some stage.
Amazon UK carries each re-issue (currently at only £8.99 each) here:
