SKU: 740155741839
This 2 CD set celebrates Level 42 's 1985 Top 3 album "World Machine", produced with Wally Badarou. The Album reached #3 in early 1986. "World Machine" features the singles 'Something About You' which became the band's second top 10 single, peaking at #6, and 'Leaving Me Now', being remixed for single release reaching #15. A Shep Pettibone remix of 'Something About You' reached #7 in the US Billboard Hot 100 becoming the band's highest charting single in the USA. CD 1 contains the original album, while CD 2 features a selection of 7 edits, 12 extended versions, remixes and B sides, including a shorter dub version of 'World Machine' which appears on CD for the first time. Includes a foreword written by Simon Carson and Paul Waller, with the latter being the author of the book "LEVEL 42 - A Worldwide Visual Discography". The booklet contains album lyrics, as well as photos of the singles released from the album. Level 42 remain one of the greatest draws on the live circuit and continue to perform worldwide, 45 years after forming. Founded in late 1979 Level 42 rose from the burgeoning UK Jazz Funk scene to international stardom. Signed by the small independent label, Elite Records in 1980 whilst still a mainly instrumental group, Level 42 were encouraged to widen their appeal with their songwriting and quickly established themselves as a powerful live band on the budding British and European jazz funk scene. Their single 'Love Meeting Love' attracted the attention of Polydor Records, with whom they signed their second recording contract, which launched their chart success with twenty UK Top 40 Singles and twelve Top 40 Albums.
