DESCRIPTION The super-deluxe edition of Welcome To The Pleasuredome includes four live tracks from The Tube‘s Europe-A-Go-Go soundcheck, newly mixed and released for the first time. Steven Wilson has also created new Dolby Atmos, 5.1 surround, and stereo mixes of the original album for the Blu-ray disc.

The new collection will be available in multiple formats: the limited edition 7CD/Blu-ray box set, a 2LP Steven Wilson stereo version on black vinyl, a 2CD edition, streaming platforms, and an exclusive Blu-ray through SuperDeluxeEdition.com. The box set includes a 38-page book with a foreword by Paul Sinclair and a detailed timeline of the band’s evolution, compiled by Kevin Foakes.

Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s blend of pop, electronic, avant-garde and punk music helped pave the way for countless other groups—they were also one of the select visibly queer groups of their era. The Liverpool-based band featured two openly gay frontmen, Holly Johnson and Paul Rutherford, alongside Mark O’Toole on bass, drummer Peter Gill, and guitarist Brian Nash. Their provocative 1983 appearance on Channel 4’s The Tube performing “Relax” caught producer Trevor Horn’s attention, leading to their signing with his ZTT label… and the rest was history.
