{"product_id":"cinerama","title":"Cinerama - Va Va Voom 25 (Clue Records)","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e‘Va Va Voom’ – “Turbo-driven melodies and bittersweet vignettes”, The Times – was the debut album from Cinerama but, of course, not the debut from the band’s protagonist – David Gedge. Originally released in 1998, it was David’s first musical project outside of The Wedding Present, who, by then, had released five albums and established themselves as one of the UK’s most uncompromising and influential indie rock bands. To be released in three formats, this celebratory re-imagining of ‘Va Va Voom’ sees David revisiting that remarkable debut. The Deluxe Edition consists of two coloured vinyl LPs and two CDs containing both a full studio re-recording of the original album together with a live recording of the album from August 2023, which can also be viewed on an accompanying DVD. A Double CD + DVD set contains both these recordings, along with the aforementioned DVD, while a Picture Disc also features the studio re-recording. All sets boast stunning new artwork.“ In 1997, I took a break from being in The Wedding Present and began exploring the idea of writing songs on my own at home, using the new technology that had recently become available. That gave me the freedom to explore writing in the style of different kinds of music, such as the classic pop records of the 1960s and 1970s and the work of film composers like John Barry and Ennio Morricone. I used samplers and sequencers for the demos and session musicians in the studio, so there wasn’t a Cinerama ‘band’, as such, until we started playing live after ‘Va Va Voom’ had been released. Last year I decided to mark the 25th anniversary of that release by playing the album in full at my annual Brighton festival, ‘At The Edge Of The Sea’. I was struck by how different ‘Va Va Voom’ sounded, being played by a live band as opposed to those studio session musicians – there’s more vibrancy and energy – so I decided to re-record it!” - David Gedge\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracklist\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eManic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eComedienne\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKerry Kerry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBarefoot In The Park\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eYou Turn Me On\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eEars\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMe Next\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHard, Fast and Beautiful\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDance, Girl, Dance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHoney Rider\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVa Va Voom - Live in Brighton 2023\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eManiac (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eComedienne (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHate (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKerry Kerry (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBarefoot In The Park (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eYou Turn Me On (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eEars (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMe Next (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHard, Fast and Beautiful (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDance, Girl, Dance (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHoney Rider (Live in Brighton 2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVersion: Picture Disc LP \u0026amp; 2LP (1 YELLOW 1 RED VINYL) 2CD 1DVD Version\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReleased: 2\u003csup\u003end\u003c\/sup\u003e October 2026\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCatalogue Number: CLUE119PD\/0602475253396 \u0026amp; CLUE119DLX\/0602475253402\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition: New Sealed\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sunflower Records","offers":[{"title":"Picture Disc LP","offer_id":59112144634181,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2LP\/CD\/DVD Version Red\/Yellow LP","offer_id":59112263123269,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/8268\/6533\/files\/theweddingpresentvavavoom1.jpg?v=1788472606","url":"https:\/\/sunflowerrecords.co.uk\/products\/cinerama","provider":"Sunflower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
