Comme le laisse entendre le titre, il s'agit du réenregistrement complet du deuxième album, sorti en 1981.
There is a very limited number of rock albums which have stood the test of time, only true masterpieces continuing to sound fresh and exciting even years after their release. The reason for their cult status: the songs are timeless and the album’s sound has captured the magic of the moment perfectly. GIRLSCHOOL’s second album, Hit And Run, out in 1981, was such a classic.
For the British all-girl group surrounding singer/guitarist Kim McAuliffe, the successor to their debut, Demolition, marked their international breakthrough. To this day, a number of tracks off Hit And Run feature on the live tracklist of the band which still consists of the original lineup – with the exception of the late Kelly Johnson, who sadly passed away in 2007 (she was replaced by guitarist Jackie Chambers in 2000).
The news that Girlschool are about to present a re-recorded version of Hit And Run, complemented by two awesome bonus tracks, will delight media and fans from all age groups alike.
“I’m just amazed that people still love it, even young people come up at our gigs now with copies that they found on the Internet or in shops or something,” comments McAuliffe.
Hit And Run – Revisited will be released in three versions: the first edition of the album will be available as a CD digipak, followed by a regular jewel case CD and a vinyl LP with gatefold sleeve.
