Description
BIO :
En 1992, le leader de The Wedding Present, David Gedge, décide de sortir un single par mois pendant un an. Ils rentreront tous dans le Top30 UK égalant ainsi un record précédemment détenu seul par….Elvis. Chaque single comprenait une compo originale de D.Gedge en face A et une reprise d’un large panel d’artistes allant de Neil Young à Elton John en passant par Isaac Hayes et The Go-Betweens.
Le produit proposé comprend à la fois le double vinyle et le CD des 24 titres.
Le groupe est toujours actif, tourne et a recommencé en cette année 2022 à sortir un single tous les mois !

Sony are to reissue The Wedding Present’s The Hit Parade album(s) on vinyl and CD in September.
During 1992, the band issued a limited edition single every month (something they have been doing this year as well). Each single featured an original track on the A-side and a cover on the B-side. At the time you could buy a limited box to keep all your singles in.
CD reissues followed around a decade later and there have been various vinyl iterations over the years (including an RSD quadruple 10″ vinyl set in 2016).
Now a newly artworked 2LP vinyl set and a 2CD editions will be issued, with both featuring all 24 songs. The vinyl package actually comes with the two CDs as a freebie bonus, which is probably better than a download code.
