{"product_id":"the-wedding-present-40","title":"The Wedding Present 40","description":"\u003cp\u003eAfter Leeds alt-rock band The Lost Pandas disintegrated around them in the early 1980s, singer\/guitarist David Gedge and bassist Keith Gregory decided to form a new group. In 1985, beguiled by pop radio, punk brashness, The Velvet Underground and David’s erstwhile schoolmates, The Chameleons… they launched The Wedding Present. That band was – and remains – uncompromising and unwaveringly authentic in every way and, as a result, Gedge, without intention, has become a legendary figure in alternative music. He has become one of the chief architects and originators of modern guitar rock and the mastermind behind one of the richest, catchiest and most consistently enthralling catalogues in pop history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour decades on, and with 13 studio albums, 20 compilation albums and a whole host of singles, EPs, live albums and radio sessions – with more on the horizon – The Wedding Present : 40 is a commemorative reflection of this complex and fascinating catalogue. Available as four vinyl and four CD box sets, this is not your usual collection of ‘most popular’ songs, but rather a chronological, aural journey of album tracks, singles and B-sides. The stunning artwork has been put together by Jonathan Hitchen – who designed many of the band’s original record covers – and there are extensive sleeve notes by David Gedge himself along with esteemed music writer Mark Beaumont [NME, Guardian, Independent]. Gedge’s commentary provides a unique insight into the workings of the band and an absorbing track-by-track guide to the compilation [full track list below].\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Wedding Present: 40 Tracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinyl \u0026amp; CD tracklist the same\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide A (CD1)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 Go Out And Get ’Em, Boy!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2 You Should Always Keep In Touch With Your Friends [Peel Session Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3 Anyone Can Make a Mistake\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e4 Everyone Think He Looks Daft\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e5 A Million Miles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e6 My Favourite Dress [LP Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide B (CD1)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e7 Nobody’s Twisting Your Arm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e8 Davni Chasy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9 Give My Love To Kevin [Acoustic Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10 Kennedy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e11 What Have I Said Now?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide C (CD2)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e12 Bewitched\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e13 Take Me!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e14 Brassneck [Single Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e15 Crawl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide D (CD2)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e16 Dalliance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e17 Dare\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e18 Suck\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e19 Blonde\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e20 Corduroy [LP Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide E (CD3)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e21 Heather\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e22 Blue Eyes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e23 Come Play With Me\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e24 Flying Saucer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e25 Click Click\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide F (CD3)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e26 Spangle [LP Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e27 Convertible\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e28 Montreal\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e29 Kansas\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e30 I'm From Further North Than You\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e31 Interstate 5 [LP Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide G (CD4)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e32 Perfect Blue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e33 Don’t Take Me Home Until I'm Drunk\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e34 Boo Boo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e35 Deer Caught In The Headlights\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide H (CD4)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e36 Two Bridges [LP Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e37 Rachel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e38 I Am Not Going To Fall In Love With You [LP Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e39 Science Fiction [LP Version]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40 Hot Wheels\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cargo","offers":[{"title":"Deluxe 4LP Box Set (Frosted White Vinyl)","offer_id":50437854822717,"sku":"CLUE1985LP","price":149.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Deluxe 4CD Box Set","offer_id":50437854855485,"sku":"CLUE1985CD","price":54.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/files\/THEWEDDINGPRESENT-40-launchCD-FRONT.jpg?v=1750776052","url":"https:\/\/sisterray.co.uk\/products\/the-wedding-present-40","provider":"Sister Ray","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
