Vinyl 180 is pleased to present the third album from Psychedelic Furs, Forever Now, as a deluxe vinyl reissue. Remastered from original source material this 180g re-issue is packed in heavyweight sleeve and 230g inner bag. Initial pressings on GREEN vinyl.
“Forever Now’, the band’s third albums, sees them augmented by producer Todd Rundgren’s house horn section and Flo & Eddie. Originally released in September 1982 this album includes the orignal Barny Bubbles cover art and for the first time the full lyrics to all the songs. The Psychedelic Furs were an English rock band founded in 1977. Led by singer Richard Butler and his brother Tim on bass guitar, the Psychedelic Furs are one of the many acts spawned from the British postpunk scene. Their music went through several phases, from an initially austere art rock sound, later touching on New Wave and hard rock. They scored several hits in their early career, but were launched to international attention in 1986 when the film director John Hughes borrowed their song title “Pretty in Pink” for his movie of the same name. A newly recorded version of the song became the Psychedlic Furs’ biggest hit to that time. Their third album ‘Forever Now’ saw them team up with Todd Rundgren and includes the single ‘Love My Way’ which appears in several movies and video games including ‘Grand Theft Auto: Vice City’, The Wedding Singer, Valley Girl. It also features on the downloadable content for the ‘Rock Band’ series.
“Likely exercising the same controlling approach that he was notorious for, from his work with every act from the New York Dolls to XTC, Todd Rundgren brought in legendary backup vocal duo Flo & Eddie as well as a cellist, two horn players (including NRBQ member Donn Adams), and himself on keyboards.
