Label GB

<p> Demon is a UK 80s New Wave label that was founded by Elvis Costello, Andrew Lauder, and the company behind the label in 1980. In 1998, the label was acquired by Music Collection International and merged with its Westside Records operation. Today, Demon forms part of the Demon Music Group Ltd.</p>

<p>Altered Images is a post-punk group that was formed in Glasgow in 1979. The original lineup consisted of Clare Grogan on vocals, Tony McDaid on guitar, John McElhone on bass, Gerard "Caesar" McInulty on guitar, and Michael "Tich" Anderson on drums. In 1981, McInulty left the band to form The Wake and was replaced by Jim McKinven. Influenced by producers like Martin Rushent and Mike Chapman, Altered Images soon embraced synthpop stylings. Although they split in 1983 (with Anderson and McKinven having already departed the previous year), Clare continued her acting career under the name CP Grogan while also performing with the band. Today, Altered Images continues to create music and perform live shows with a predominantly female lineup.</p>

Altered Images’ third and final album was released in June 1983, presenting a more sophisticated sound and image than the previous two albums. In an unusual move, two established producers were responsible for four songs each on the album. It was preceded by the hit singles “Don’t Talk To Me About Love”, a # 7 UK hit, produced by Mike Chapman (Blondie) and “Bring Me Closer” (# 29), produced by Tony Visconti (David Bowie, T. Rex). 

2CD - In this very special 40th anniversary 2CD set, CD1 features the original album, while bonus CD2 contains the three non-album B-sides, two extended 12” versions, a live track and three single edits. The two CDs are presented in brand new seven-inch deluxe gatefold packaging, with an 8-page booklet which includes all the lyrics (including the three B-sides) and the credits.
