THE OUTFIELD – California Sun CDs (2011)

With original drummer Alan Jackman back in the fold, it looks to be a banner year for fans of ’80s band The Outfield, setting the stage for a major comeback.
John Spinks and Tony Lewis have been carrying on as ‘The Outfield’ off and on after their heyday. But now that all three original members are together again, things seem a bit more exciting.

“California Sun”, from their forthcoming new album ‘Replay’, is a careful blend of melodic brilliance and intricately woven vocals that will illuminate the radio airwaves this summer.
The single also includes an extra track; “Malibu Beach” an exclusive companion not to be included into Replay’s tracklist, which was recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London.

“A Little Piece of Paradise” is a previously unreleased track from the 1993 Strongroom Sessions, while “Mystery Man” is the ’84 demo version of the ‘Scarf sessions’, different from the one included into the band’s breakthru debut ‘Play Deep’.
