40th Anniversary Pressing on Vinyl LP!
Half-Speed Mastered by Matt Colton at Metropolis Studios!
Featuring "It's My Life" & "Such a Shame"!
In celebration of the 40th anniversary of Talk Talk's iconic It's My Life album, it has been cut at half-speed by Matt Colton at Metropolis Studios, overseen by Talk Talk drummer Lee Harris and Charlie Hollis, son of Mark Hollis, giving the album a greater depth.
Originally released in February 1984, It's My Life is the band's second album and followed the 1982 release of their debut, The Party's Over, which initially received moderate success in the U.K. reaching number 21 in the U.K. chart and finding some global success.
By the time they came to writing and recording It's My Life, the band had gone from the four piece to a three with Simon Brenner leaving the band. The album initially found considerable international success. "Such a Shame," the album's first single was a top 10 hit across Europe and the album's title track entered global Top 40's including in the U.S.
