a few weeks ago<\/A> i posted a few words relating to a strange long lost forgotten 80s album made by robbie williams’<\/STRONG> latest best mate, stephen tintin duffy<\/EM>. <\/FONT><\/DIV>
the excellent off the wall electro experiment that was released under the name dr calculus <\/STRONG>that for a few months back in 1986 completely dominated my listening pattern.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
so imagine my surprise when a few days after my post, i opened the latest issue of beatles loving mojo magazine<\/EM> to see a small paragraph in their playlist section advising that this curio is now to get a re-release !<\/FONT><\/DIV>
a few investigative emails, and i get to the bottom of the mystery. <\/FONT><\/DIV>
yes, the album is getting reissued, but no you won’t be able to walk into a record shop and physically pick this  album up.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
you see its going to be a digital only release.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
however, to sweeten the deal, the package comes wrapped up with the various 12″, b-sides that were released alongside the album, which to be honest, are not that different to the album versions (this was the day when a 12″ remix involved a slightly extended drum loop at the beginning and end of the record!), but still are worthy of love, especially in their squeaky clean, scratch free, remastered versions.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
so, seeing as very few out there know of this personal favourite, here are the details : <\/FONT><\/DIV>
release date: july 9th<\/EM><\/FONT><\/DIV>
