The greatest hits , that never were album
union
The “Union ” album Like most good things in life , has taken a while to arrive and still hasn’t ! But it’s close.
this compilation album has been a long time coming…
You can hear a compilation track of the original proposed track listing on the album “Rewind”, but since then we’ve changed the tracklist…as it now stands…
Upcoming Compilation Union Album
1. I’ve hurt so much ( Edge of forever album ), a wonderful guitar lick drives the track along…ahead of its time in 1984 , today a great listen.
2- if you don’t try ( running with the ghosts album ) positive , life affirming lyrics backed with ” police” style backing , always a firm live favourite with the fans and now beefed up ..
3. Save me ( dancing on the edge album ) , we always flirted with beats that encouraged dancing but always had that rocky , indi sound reminiscent of new order..used as the show opener for our 30th anniversary re union gig..
4. I thought ( looking for the key album )a track that originally was written for the “looking for the key” , but outlived the production , changing slightly to be included on two Edge albums in different forms
5. They’ve got it in for me ( running with the ghosts) we played this song at our second ever gig and its haunting sound won over a very tough crowd
6.I’ve seen the faces ( first light )radically different re working of a track from the first album , that has gained an 80’s loving fan following…
7.holding on ( strange dreams album ), the track that nearly got us signed to Island records…an anthemic track of lighter waving proportions..fan favourite from back in the day…
8.on this day ( strange dreams)anthem track no 2, exploring life after death..deep man…
9.we can see it through ( life without risk album ) an exploration into dance rock..
10.loves mystery ( the persistence of memory) from the second album , re worked for greater musical dynamics..another epic Tim guitar solo
11.Running with the ghosts..from the album of the same name, our ” bohemian rhapsody” , tho we never intended it to be a musical epic , it just came out that way
This will be a snapshot of the kind of sounds and songs coming as we re-record and release our back catalogue of songs…watch this space…
