Still 'Raw': Neneh Cherry's Debut Gets Expanded Stance For 30th Anniversary

November 27, 2019 By The Second Disc 3 Comments

BUY NOW FROM AMAZON.COM

One of the most unique and eclectic debut albums of the late '80s, Neneh Cherry's Raw Like Sushi, will be celebrated with a 30th anniversary deluxe edition coming from Virgin/UMC in January.

The deluxe Raw Like Sushi, packed in a 12" x 12" box set, will feature the original album alongside two discs of vintage remixes of hits like "Buffalo Stance" (an international Top 5 hit) and "Kisses On The Wind," a follow-up that reached the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 in America. A who's who of remixers from the period are featured, including Massive Attack, Arthur Baker, David Morales and the Latin Rascals.

Released in the summer of 1989, Raw Like Sushi synthesized hip-hop with fresh dance club styles and became the toast of the year in pop, reaching No. 5 on The Village Voice's annual Pazz & Jop poll and winning Cherry - the Swedish-born stepdaughter of jazz trumpeter Don Cherry - two BRIT Awards for Best International Breakthrough and Best International Solo Artist. (She also received a nomination for Best New Artist at the Grammy Awards, losing to Milli Vanilli, whose trophy was later rescinded after a lip-syncing scandal.) Her blend of rapping and singing and her powerful femininity made for a powerful combination, confounding British audiences when she performed "Buffalo Stance" on Top Of The Pops while pregnant with her second child and breaking up the boys' club of the nascent hip-hop tidal wave. In 2014, Cherry ended a nearly 20-year gap between solo albums with Blank Project; a follow-up, Broken Politics, was released in 2018.

Raw Like Sushi will be reissued January 31 as either a deluxe 3CD or 3LP set. Single disc CD and vinyl remasters will also be available. Those links and the full track list are below!

    They've missed out Buffalo Blues from the b-side of Kisses In The Wind, are they crazy?

    “Buffalo Blues” should also be included on the CD set!

    The single versions and edits of various album tracks should also be added to the first disc as time allows.
