RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON VIRGIN 1982 Virgin 204 939 made in Germany. Vinyl EX. Cover EX. Originally released in 1982 by Arista in the U.K. and reissued on CD by the Dutch Disky imprint in 2001, Celebration serviceably culls some of the better moments from Simple Minds' first three albums: 1979's Life in a Day and Reel to Real Cacophony and 1980's Empires and Dance. Given the sadly neglected status of the band's early catalog -- meaning anything that was released prior to 1982's breakthrough New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84) -- through the early 2000s, it is doubly unfortunate that a compilation like this remained out of print for an extended period of time. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Minds Tracklist 1.
