Sparkle In The Rain [2 CD][Deluxe Edition]
Originally released in February 1984, Sparkle In The Rain (title taken from a line in Book Of Brilliant Things) was Simple Minds' sixth studio album and, following 1982's crossover album New Gold Dream, the one to cement their commercial success.
This 2014 2CD Deluxe Edition of the title contains the original remastered album along with a bonus disc of rare B-sides, some making their CD debut for the first time. These include: a live version of NGD's 'Hunter And The Hunted,' which shows the band's evolving sound; acclaimed 12-inch remixes of 'Waterfront' (producer Steve Lillywhite looped the drums to create an extended intro, as well as stripped instrumentation to create a huge, expansive track), 'Speed Your Love To Me,' 'Up On The Catwalk' and 'A Brass Band In Africa,' and 'Bass Line' the original instrumental that became 'White Hot Day.'
Add to this an expanded booklet and you have a must have piece for any Simple Minds fan s music collection.
