Happy Birthday [Deluxe] (Gate) (Uk)

Released in September 1981, Altered Images' debut album featured the band's biggest single, "Happy Birthday", which peaked at number 2, produced by Martin Rushent (Human League, Stranglers, Buzzcocks). The remainder of the album was produced by Steven Severin, co-founder of Siouxsie and The Banshees, and went on to earn a Silver Disc, selling in excess of 60,000 copies. In this very special 2CD set, CD1 features the original album, while bonus CD2 contains the non album A-side "Dead Pop Stars", five non-album B-sides (including a cover of T. Rex's "Jeepster"), an extended 12" version, a single edit, and two tracks from a FlexiPop magazine flexi-disc. The two CDs are presented in brand new seven-inch deluxe gatefold packaging, with an 8-page booklet which includes all the lyrics (including the six non-album tracks) and the credits.
