Tears for Fears' Songs from the Big Chair marks the progression towards emotional healing, a particularly bold sort of catharsis culled from Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith's shared attraction to primal scream therapy.
The album also heralded a dramatic maturation in the band's music, away from the synth-pop brand with which it was unjustly seared following the debut, and towards a complex, enveloping pop sophistication.
For the first time ever, Songs from the Big Chair appears on transparent red vinyl with its original alternate cover design. This 2LP edition also includes a selection of alternate versions and mixes, many of which are making their vinyl debut. A must-have for fans and collectors alike.
