Got the Human League in to inspire 'em

Pet Shop Boys have announced that their new album 'Yes' out on 23rd March will also be available with a special second disc 'Yes etc.' with dub versions of selected tracks off Yes plus a new track "This used to be the future" featuring guest vocals by Phil Oakey of The Human League.
Although pioneers of the 'remix' album themselves (see Disco 1 - 2 - 3) the PSBs state that "the inspiration for this bonus album came from The Human League's 1982 dub album, "Love and Dancing" (issued under the name of The League Unlimited Orchestra....actually).

PSB's "Love etc." is Record of the Week on BBC Radio 2 this week.










Phil Oakey: "one day all hair will be cut this way.."
