Nukleopatra

Description

Dead Or Alive have sold more than 30 million albums and 25 million singles worldwide and gave Stock Aitken Waterman their first #1 single. Their first three albums, which the band wrote, all reached the UK Top 30, with Youthquake reaching the Top 10. In the 1980s, they charted seven unique singles in the UK Top 40, with two further re-entries this century, with a remix and original version of You Spin Me Round (Like A Record).

Respected US magazine Billboard, ranked them in their all-time Top 100 most successful dance artists chart.

Recorded at PWL Studios, London, Nukleopatra is the Bands sixth studio album and was initially released in Japan in 1995, although subsequently released in different versions track listing/versions/durations/artwork in eight other countries between 1996 and 1998. It contains the singles Rebel Rebel and Sex Drive. The album was not released in the UK, until a re-worked version was included within the Sophisticated Boom Box MMXVI box set in 2016.

This vinyl edition replicates the original Japanese version, which features longer versions Nukleopatra and Sex Drive, along with re- recorded versions of Unhappy Birthday and Gone Too Long, which appeared on Fan the Flame (Part 1).

This special 25th Anniversary Edition of Nukleopatra is the first time that the album has been commercially released on vinyl in its original configuration, with original playing durations and will be pressed on 180g heavyweight blue colour vinyl.
