2024 remaster • 40th anniversary • Release date: 6th Dec 2024

The Thompson Twins 1984 album Into The Gap is being reissued for its 40th anniversary as this 140g opaque red vinyl edition.

Into The Gap was the Thompson Twins' fourth album and their second as a three-piece of Tom Bailey, Alannah Currie and Joe Leeway. Like its predecessor, Quick Step & Side Kick, it was co-produced by the much missed Alex Sadkin, a brilliant mixer and producer who worked with the likes of Grace Jones, Duran Duran, Simply Red, Arcadia and more.

The album was the band's commercial peak. The first three singles – 'Hold Me Now', 'Doctor! Doctor!', 'You Take Me Up', were all top 5 singles in the UK with 'Hold Me Now' reaching No 3 in America and No 1 in the US Dance Chart. A fourth single, 'Sister of Mercy' reached No 11 in Britain and 'The Gap' was released as a single in the USA and Germany. The album enjoyed a three-week spell at the top of the UK charts and went top 10 in America. It would go on to sell over 5m copies worldwide, including 1m in the US.

The album has been remastered at Abbey Road by Frank Arkwright for this reissue.

The LP format, on red vinyl, recreates the original release, complete with fold-out insert. This reissue also features digitally restored artwork and new sleeve notes, written by John Earls and features contributions from all three band members.

Into The Gap is released on 8 November 2024.
