Pop supergroup the Pet Shop Boys have revealed two more ‘Further Listening’ expanded albums will drop in October.
Neil and Chris have enjoyed an extraordinary level of international success across the past 32 years. And, in recent years they’ve been releasing expanded editions of their classic albums.
The latest to be afforded the ‘Further Listening’ treatment are 2009’s ‘Yes’ and 2012’s ‘Elysium’.
Both new versions will include a fully remastered edition of the original album, along with a bonus disc containing demos, remixes and previously unreleased material. (Girls Aloud fans might recognise disc two, track seven of ‘Yes’)
And both will be accompanied by a deluxe booklet in which Neil and Chris discuss different aspects of the albums’ creation.
‘Yes’ and ‘Elysium’ (Further Listening editions) will be released on Friday October 20.
