ABOUT THIS ITEM

Continuing Edsel’s reissue programme of Everything But The Girl’s first four albums. ‘Love Not Money’ was followed by the orchestral 60s wall of sound and country-tinted gold-selling ‘Baby, The Stars Shine Bright’ (1986), which featured triumphant orchestration making a bid for classic album status. It includes the hit singles “Come On Home”, “Don’t Leave Me Behind” and “Sugar Finney”, which, along with 'Come Hell Or High Water' are four of many highpoints, with the duo's impressive songwriting shining throughout.

In a beautifully presented 2xCD casebound book, put together with the full involvement of Ben and Tracey, and featuring a newly-written note by the couple, along with all the lyrics, ‘Baby, The Stars Shine Bright’ features twelve bonus tracks: 7 non-album single B-sides, and 5 previously unreleased home demos.
