The Remastered version of Dazzle Ships is now available for pre-sale via the OMD Merchandise section.
Andy McCluskey will be signing a limited number of initial copies on a first come/first served basis.
We also still have stock of the Discography Booklets for this release. Some time back we produced a series of 4-page booklets that focussed on OMD album releases by title. These included one for Dazzle Ships. Each copy of Dazzle Ships bought via the OMD Website will be issued with one of the Dazzle Ships booklets until we run out of booklets (no more are being printed).
So if you would like a signed copy of Dazzle Ships with a booklet then order now: www.omd.uk.com/omerch/index.php
The recent interview with Andy McCluskey for Clash Magazine is due to go live during the week of the Dazzle Ships launch.
