The Teardrop Explodes- Kilimanjaro Deluxe Reissue

Originally released in 1980, 'Kilimanjaro' was the debut album by The Teardrop Explodes. This new 3-disc deluxe set includes the original album plus a second disc rounding up the relevant non album singles and b-sides. These include the group's two initial Zoo singles, fronted by "Sleeping Gas" and "Bouncing Babies" and the post-album "Reward" which gave the group its sole Top 10 hit. Disc Three features the Teardrops' Peel sessions. The set comes with a series of newly written notes from core members Julian Cope, David Balfe and Gary Dwyer.

You've got a great blog, but how do you hear these records?

No, I don't hear all the records, especially not all the new ones that come out. That is the reason why I don't write reviews only news.

Sorry, my mistake. I meant to say is there a link for us to download them?

I would really like to check out the extras on this album.

Thanks

I never put download links to the music which is currently in print.
You might try the amazon page, they sometimes have song previews and even youtube.

You're welcome! :)

Can't wait for this come out. The Teardrop Explodes were *such* a good band.

Julian Cope may be slightly daft these days but he wrote some classic songs in his earlier days.
