Cherry Red Has Ace in Their Hand

May 25, 2011 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

Some time ago, we reported on Cherry Red's new reissue of an Ace compilation and subsequent intention to reissue all of the band's back catalogue later in the year. Now, the U.K. reissue label has revealed their titles for June, and all three Ace LPs  are slated for release this summer, each greatly expanded with bonus material.

The Sheffield pub-rockers - best known, of course, for the U.S. Top 5 hit "How Long" and the kickstarting of vocalist Paul Carrack's career (he'd later join Roxy Music, Squeeze and Mike + The Mechanics) - recorded three albums for Anchor Records between 1974 and 1977; Five-a-Side, Time for Another and No Strings will all be released by the label. The first album will be augmented with a bonus disc comprised of BBC sessions with John Peel and Bob Harris and one rare studio bonus track from a Japanese reissue in 2004. The last two will be packaged together with a third disc of additional live material licensed from the BBC, including another Peel session and two In Concert airings.

All in all, it looks like a pretty great way to sum up the band's catalogue. All the titles will be out on June 20 in the U.K. and can be ordered at Cherry Red's website now. Hit the jump to see how long the track lists are!

His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.
