2LP - Deluxe Edition featuring a bonus LP of single versions (A-sides and B-sides).
Mercury-EMI / UMR are proud to present a timely celebration of Soft Cell’s legendary 1981 debut Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret with various supplementary extras and rarities.
The debut album from Marc Almond and Dave Ball AKA Soft Cell is truly an icon of electronic music. Not only did Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret introduce the world to classic singles ‘Tainted Love’ (one of the biggest global hits of all time) ‘Bedsitter’ and ‘Say Hello Wave Goodbye’, it also shocked and delighted in equal measure with a 10-track song cycle straight outta the seedier, sleazier, darker side of life. ‘Sex Dwarf’, ‘Frustration’, ‘My Secret Life’, ‘Seedy Films’… four decades on, it still has the power to thrill, shock and swoon.
This 2LP Deluxe Edition adds a bonus LP of single versions (A-sides and B-sides).
