The Right Stuff

Originally chosen as the first single to be taken from Bryan Ferry’s 1987 album ‘Bête Noire’, the groove laden ‘The Right Stuff’ evolved from a collaboration with guitarist, Johnny Marr. Based on Marr’s ‘Money Changes Everything’, written for The Smiths, the track evolved into a slice of...

Out of all the possible anniversaries of 2024…

It was decided last August (or earlier) and I suspect, although Central posted about it in December, 'they' get very little control over what comes out (much like the Shaw 12", Smiths stuff via Warners & HMV gold disc editions et al).

Would you mind sharing a link to this? Can’t seem to find any info but very interested in buying this.

I was looking for it in the 2024 list that they posted, but it doesn't seem to be listed there...

Marr's Guitars

A stunning photographic presentation of the guitars that defined the distinctive sounds and style of Johnny Marr with personal reflections and insights from the legendary guitarist himself. Marr's Guitars is so much more than a book about guitars - it is an insight into Johnny Marr's career...

Does anyone have the tracklist? Is it just gonna be a simple reissue of the 3 tracks from the original 12"?

The website lists it as a "180g LP", and the image shows 4 tracks on one side of the record, though perhaps it's just stock?

33rpm is interesting though...

Has it been confirmed anywhere what the b-side(s) will be? The instrumental version?

Half speed is a selling point these days.
I believe you'll get:
Interlude – 3:48
Interlude (extended) – 5:51
Interlude (instrumental) – 7:36

It would be incredible if any of the 10 versions unpublished via the Abbey Road reference CD-R were to manifest on this record, but I believe it's just a gold version of the original black vinyl (very happy to be wrong).
Regards,
FWD.

10 versions unpublished? Never heard of that. Don't leave me in the dark, because you never do, you never do, ahoho....

Sorry, 10 versions, some of which unpublished.
Several leaked here.
3 on the original record.
1 on Very Best Of...
So ~6 on the CD-R.
One should be Siouxsie only vocals.

There are other promo CD-Rs (3&5"), but the above is rare as hen's teeth.

I love Interlude, such deep sentiment. I guess some may consider it overblown. It could be the lead single for a Morrissey torch compilation of similar melodrama, "Live in an empty room":

Side 1
Interlude
I've changed my plea
Trouble loves me
I'm throwing my arms

Side 2
My love life
Nobody loves us
I know it's gonna
