It Bites / Whole New World: The Virgin Albums 1986-1991

itbites

Next month sees the releases of Whole New World, a four-CD set featuring the work of It Bites from 1986-1991.

The collection features all three studio albums from that era (The Big Lad In The Windmill (1986), Once Around The World (1988) and Eat Me in St. Louis (1989)) as well as the Thank You And Goodnight live set.

The studio albums all come with bonus tracks including seven-inch edits, B-sides, original CD/Cassette bonus tracks and more. This set features sleeve notes by Malcolm Dome and new artwork.

At less than £14 Whole New World is a bit of a steal and comes recommended. However, if you *must* spend more money on It Bites reissues and/or you are a packaging freak (guilty as charged), the albums are available individually as Japanese SHM-CDs in mini-LP vinyl replica packaging. These also have a different selection of bonus tracks, although there’s only a couple (Woman Is An Addict and a seven inch version of Old Man And The Angel) that aren’t on the European Whole New World set. Even so this does mean that Whole New World it’s not the complete Virgin output as is claimed on Amazon. Full track listings for everything is below.

Whole New World is out on 3 November with the individual Japanese reissues available just before that date.
