Haywoode Roses: Remixes & Rarities CD

2018 two CD collection from the British vocalist. This compilation brings together many sought-after mixes of her classic '80s singles plus B-sides, rarities and unheard recordings from throughout her CBS tenure. Alongside the signature smash 'Roses' (#11 UK), this collection contains Haywoode's debut release 'A Time Like This' (#48 UK, #5 US Club) and further singles 'I Can't Let You Go', 'You'd Better Not Fool Around' and 'I'm Your Puppet'. Showcasing Haywoode's credentials as a pop artist somewhat ahead of her time, the production and remix credits are a virtual 'who's who' of the mid-80s club scene on both sides of the pond with Michael Barbiero, Bert Bevans, Duane Bradley and Nick Martinelli rubbing shoulders with Stock Aitken Waterman and The Quick. Remastered and compiled direct from the original CBS master tapes, "Roses: Remixes & Rarities" marks the first time that the majority of tracks have ever been made available on CD. Additionally, this collection features four previously unreleased masters, including 1984's 'Divided Love' and, from 1986, 'Play With Boys' and Bryan "Chuck" New's full-length remix of 'I'm Your Puppet'. With direct input from Sid Haywoode herself, this release boasts an extensive booklet containing her personal commentary, a fully illustrated discography, lyrics and previously unseen shots from the archive of esteemed photographer Johnny Rozsa.
