2022/11/4 発売輸入盤レーベル： VIRGIN INT'L収録曲：(シンプルマインズ)Reissue. For their fourth album in three years, Simple Minds signed on with Virgin and enlisted Gong's Steve Hillage as producer. The sessions continued the group's impressive run of high-quality output. Though their work with Hillage hardly spawned anything on a plane with the two albums that preceded it and the one that followed it, it's still a substantial piece of the Simple Minds puzzle. Bridging the art disco of Empires and Dance with the pop masterpiece New Gold Dream, the album features "70 Cities As Love Brings the Fall" (a great balance between grand melodies and bizarre noise), the insistently snaking "In Trance As Mission," and "Sweat in Bullet," which has sparkling keyboard parts and crafty guitar interplay. Upon it's release, Sons and Fascination was issued for a limited time with a bonus LP, Sister Feelings Call, which includes a great pre-Sons and Fascination A-side ("The American").
