Description: 'Pelican West 40' is a celebration edition of Haircut 100's much-loved 1982 debut album. In less than six months, the group moved from being London underground darlings to chart sensations, and within a year had disappeared into pop's ether, leaving behind one memorable album and four Top 10 UK singles. The set features a brand-new half-speed master from the original tapes of their debut album, two LPs of extended versions, B-sides and special remixes, plus the first-ever release of the eleven tracks that the band were working on in late Summer 1982 for the follow up album to 'Pelican West', to be titled 'Blue Hat for a Blue Day'. Although unfinished, the five instrumentals, one guide, and five vocal tracks enthusiastically illustrate what would have happened next. Includes the Haircut 100 version of 'Club Boy at Sea' and 'Whistle Down the Wind' as well as an instrumental of 'A Blue Hat for a Blue Day', which were all to feature on Nick Heyward's first solo album, 'North of a Miracle' in 1983. Pressed on four 180g vinyl LPs, in quadruple gatefold packaging featuring a 5,000-word note, an oral history of the time with all six members, interviewed and assembled by the set's curator, author and DJ Daryl Easlea. Newly mastered by Phil Kinrade and cut by Barry Grint at AIR Mastering.
