Description

//Rhino//

£97.99 – 2xLP, Super Deluxe Edition with Etched D-Side, plus 4xCD and Hardcover Book

Seal: Deluxe Edition introduces a newly remastered version of the original album on CD and a double-LP with an etching on the final side. The set’s three remaining CDs provide some context around the studio album using an extensive selection of rare recordings from the era, including early mixes, remixes, and more, as well as a previously unreleased 13-track concert performance.

Seal: Deluxe Edition also boasts a disc of rarities featuring “premix” versions of six album tracks. These versions featured early mixes that were available briefly on early pressings before they were replaced by Horn’s final mixes. The collection also showcases many of the incredible dance remixes created for album singles, including standouts like William Orbit’s dub mix for Killer and the Giro E Giro Mix for The Beginning.

The collection ends on a high note with a previously unreleased concert recorded at the Point Theatre in Dublin, Ireland, on December 16, 1991. Recorded as his fame was exploding, the show captures Seal channelling the audience’s energy while working through every song from his debut, plus the B-side A Minor Groove, a cover of Hey Joe, and more.
