About this item

Lush’s 'Gala' was the band’s debut compilation album, comprising their earliest releases — 'Scar' (1989), 'Mad Love' (1990), and 'Sweetness and Light' (1990) — in reverse chronological order, plus two additional tracks (a cover version of ABBA’s 'Hey Hey Helen' and the extended Robin Guthrie mix of Scar track 'Scarlet').

The 'Gala' 35th Anniversary Edition follows the 2023 remasters of Lush’s three studio albums — 'Spooky', 'Split', and 'Lovelife'. Last year, Lush also partnered with the Criterion Channel on the release of A Far From Home Movie, a short film created by bassist Phil King and shared in memory of Chris Acland, which compiles candid Super8 footage taken by King during Lush's tours from 1992-1996.
