Say It To Me 12” - Pet Shop Boys
The PSB's haven't just made some great records. They have always taken care with the visual presentation, too. I've been reading (viewing?) the Catalogue book, a beautifully presented look at their back catalogue from the start to the early 2000's. All the covers (for the various formats) are there along with stills from their video's and live shows, together with interesting insights from collaborators and the duo themselves. There is also an entertaining and informative extended interview at the end which goes something like this. Long, detailed and well thought out reply from Neil Tennant followed by a witty one liner from Chris Lowe. He's very dry, isn't he! Anyway, it's encouraged me dig out some old PSB's albums – great stuff. And the more recent 12” is very good, too.
