More Info:

Limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on pink & clear marble coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Thomas Dolby highlights his melodic tendencies on Astronauts & Heretics his 4th studio album. Containing more personal moments enhanced by his love for technology, which tracks as "Cruel," featuring Eddi Reader, and "Eastern Bloc (the sequel)" help listeners connect with bits of the past forwarded into the future. "Eastern Bloc (the sequel)" takes it's rhythmic sense from the old Johnny Otis tune, "Willie and the Hand Jive," before it comes into it's own. Eddie Van Halen's guitarskills can be heard on 2 tracks: "Eastern Bloc" & "Close But No Cigar." Astronauts & Heretics is a Dolby at his finest and the album is one of the more hidden gems of his catalogue. Time sometimes must catch up to foresighted performers. Astronauts & Heretics is just a perfect example of this.
