Virgin 40th Birthday releases

Postby Blemished on Mon Oct 07, 2013 1:11 pm

Japan / Sylvian feature quite heavily in some new compilation CDs being released to celebrate Virgin Records's 40th Birthday (see relevant tracks below). They also inspire the title of one of compilations. Date of release is 4th November.

stupid americans always getting the shaft, the "ghosts" single will end up costing me $17 after all is said and done. i'm going to have to give the compilation cds a pass for now since i have all the songs anyway and there's no special packaging (like a limited digipak). maybe i'll grab them later.
no amount of fire or freshness can challenge what a man will store up in his ghostly heart.
