• Includes 41 previously unreleased tracks taken from their unreleased second album plus two live concerts.
• Featuring an expanded version of the ‘English Garden’ album including the original versions of the Ivor Novello Award-nominated ‘Video Killed The Radio Star’ and ‘Clean Clean’, both of which Bruce co-wrote with Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes and went on to become hit singles for The Buggles.
• Packaged in a deluxe clamshell box with a fully illustrated 28-page booklet containing rare and previously unseen images and a brand new annotation featuring quotes from band members Bruce Woolley, Dave Birch and Thomas Dolby.
Bruce Woolley & The Camera Club were founded in 1979 with Bruce Woolley on vocals, Dave Birch on guitar, Thomas Dolby on keyboards, Matthew Seligman on bass and Rod Johnson on drums. They released their debut album ‘English Garden’ in 1979 and supported its release by touring in England, USA and Canada. Unfortunately, they disbanded after two years largely spent on the road following on from CBS Records’ refusal to release their second album.
