Title: Hired History Plus
Label: Cherry Red
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS

Digitally remastered two CD collection brings together the entire 1980's recorded output of synth pop pioneers, Fiat Lux. The original Hired History album - and indeed all of the bonus tracks - are appearing on CD for the very first time. Disc One features the band's commercially released tracks including the band's debut single for Cocteau Records and the five released by Polydor Records in a period spanning 1982-85. Disc Two is the lost and previously unreleased second album Ark Of Embers as the band originally intended it when it was made with producer, Hugh Jones. All the tracks have been sourced and remastered from the original production master tapes after months of searching tape archives and exhaustive listening sessions to trace the correct versions. The CD booklet features the original album cover plus extensive sleeve notes written by band members Steve Wright and David Crickmore telling the band's story from a unique perspective. There is also a foreword written by the producer of Ark Of Embers, Hugh Jones who has also worked with Echo & The Bunnymen, Del Amitri, Julian Cope and Bauhaus amongst others.
