REACHING TO THE CONVERTED draws material from early singles, obscure b-sides and overlooked CD bonus tracks. It also includes an unreleased gem - a brand new version of Greetings To The New Brunette, recorded at Johnny Marr's studio during the Don't Try This At Home sessions and to avoid confusion re-titled Shirley (Billy says that's what everybody calls it anyway). The album also includes all three tracks from the 1985 Days Like These single, the sublime ballad version of Wishing The Days Away and Sulk, arguably the Red Stars finest three and a half minutes. Bragg completists will also have the chance to own his number one hit single version of She's Leaving Home and everyone will be pleased to hear that his classic reading of Walk Away Renee (Version) will finally be available again. REACHING TO THE CONVERTED Full tracklisting: SHIRLEY SULK ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN (RED STAR VERSION) THE BOY DONE GOOD HEART LIKE A WHEEL BAD PENNY ONTARIO, QUEBEC AND ME WALK AWAY RENEE (VERSION) RULE NOR REASON DAYS LIKE THESE SCHOLARSHIP IS THE ENEMY OF ROMANCE THINK AGAIN WISHING THE DAYS AWAY (BALLAD VERSION) THE TATLER JEANE SHE'S LEAVING HOME I DONÕT NEED THIS PRESSURE, RON Rhino will release REACHING TO THE CONVERTED on CD only on 30th August 1999. Cooking Vinyl will release the same compilation in the UK on CD and vinyl at the initial price of £9.99. Check this site for details of Canadian, Australian and NZ release details. Billy and the Blokes will be touring in support of this album, beginning in the USA in August/September.

I'll send you stuff if you have them on tape?? Don't you wish Mary Lou Lord would have been the female singer on the "Mermaid Avenue" instead? Thanks!
