Matt Bianco Indigo

Cherry Pop has just continued its reissue series celebrating U.K. outfit Matt Bianco with a 3-CD deluxe edition of 1988's Indigo.  This release follows similarly lavish expansions for the jazz/pop/dance/Latin band's debut Whose Side Are You On in 2016 and eponymous sophomore album in 2017.
