On June 15, Edsel will remember the late singer-songwriter Kirsty MacColl with the release of a new 4CD/1DVD box set. Days (1988-1991) collects her Virgin Records period which yielded two albums and various singles. MacColl's unique voice was first heard on her single for Stiff Records, the peppy "They Don't Know." Despite strong airplay, the single actually never charted on the U.K. charts, the victim of a distributor's strike keeping the single from experiencing any major sales. (In 1983,

I've Waited Hours For This: The Cure Expand 'Mixed Up' With New and Vintage Remixes
The Cure kicked off the 1990s with the release of Mixed Up, an album collecting the band's rarer 12-inch mixes.

As Robert Smith comments, Brian "Chuck" New's dub style remix of "Pictures Of You" inspired him: "That mix turned the music on its head, but at the same time left the essential heart of the song
