The Durutti Column - Fidelity [2LP coloured vinyl, TWI 976]

Fidelity by The Durutti Column gets a long overdue re-release on 10 January 2020 via Les Disques du Crépuscule and, for the first time ever, it's coming out on vinyl. In fact it's a special double LP clear and blue vinyl limited edition of 1000 copies (with digital download - email Crépuscule for more details).

Originally released by Crépuscule on CD only in April 1996, Fidelity featured 10 tracks written and performed by Vini Reilly, with occasional guest vocals by Eley Rudge. In addition to Vini's trademark guitar stylings, the album showcased sleek electronic textures and programmed beats.

This 2019 vinyl re-master features two bonus tracks: My Only Love was originally released in 1995 on a covermount CD with a specialist guitar magazine, while experimental piece The New Fidelity was issued on a Portuguese compilation album from 1992 called Hare, Hunter, Field.

This edition features brand new cover artwork by Crépuscule design director Benoit Hennebert, based on a portrait by Vini Reilly of filmmaker Carol Morley.
