Remastered, doublevinyl, expanded version of Marc Almond s 1991 album Tenement Symphony.Featuring the actual Trevor Horn produced Tenement Symphony sequence restored as was his original intention with the dramatic statement of the orchestral Prelude as a precursor to the intoxicating energy of lead hit single, Jacky, as written by Jacques Brel.Tenement Symphony was an attempt, at the time, to make the definitive Marc Almond album as masterminded by Warner Music UKs then chairman Rob Dickins . The effect of the album was meant to be like looking through the windows of different rooms in a tenement building and hearing a bouquet of narrative songs about disparate characters residing therein. It saw the first postbreakup rekindling of the songwriting partnership with Soft Cells Dave Ball with The Grids Richard Norris on the three technotorch tracks Meet Me In My Dream, Ive Never Seen Your Face and UK hit My Hand Over My Heart. It was an album that also featured three co writes with Marcs longstanding collaborator and arranger Billy McGee Marc amp The Mambas, The Willing Sinners on the emotionally charged tracks Vaudeville amp Burlesque, Beautiful Brutal Thing and Champagne. In this resequencing of the album, to enable optimal mastering, Champagne now opens the predominantly bonus tracks second disc, the other songs were Bsides to the albums three hit singles, Jacky UK17, My Hand Over My Heart UK33 and The Days Of Pearly Spencer UK4. Many of these Bsides feature such stellar songwriting that they could have easily created a double album back in the day to showcase all the contemporaneous involved talents of Trevor Horn, The Grid, John Coxon and Billy McGee. This special double, coloured vinyl edition for fans provides a glimpse into how such a release might actually have panned out.
