NEW SCRITTI POLITTI BEST OF CD WITH 2 NEW RECORDINGS:





















After a long wait it looks like Virgin/EMI are finally set to release a Greatest Hits package from Scritti Politti. The best thing about this collection is that it contains 2 new songs written by Green Gartside and original member David Gamson called "Day Late And A Dollar Short" and "A Place We Both Belong". No word on if the older material was remastered, I hope it was as the quality of the original cds released in the 80's isn't fantastic. The full track listing is below and the collection is due for release in the U.K. on February 28th, 2011. Would be great if Green and David reunited for a tour, somehow doubt that will happen though.

Scritti Politti - Absolute (Greatest Hits)

1. Wood Beez (Pray Like Aretha Franklin)
2. Absolute
3. The Word Girl (Flesh And Blood)
4. Perfect Way
5. Hypnotize
6. Oh Patti (Don’t Feel Sorry For Loverboy)
7. Boom! There She Was
8. Umm
9. Tinseltown To The Boogiedown
10. Die Alone
11. Brushed With Oil, Dusted With Powder
12. Skank Bloc Bologna
13. The Sweetest Girl
14. Asylums In Jerusalem
15. Jacques Derrida
16. She’s A Woman
17. Day Late And A Dollar Short
18. A Place We Both Belong

UPCOMING SCRITTI POLITTI "BEST OF" CD MAY CONTAIN NEW TRACKS:



















There is a new Scritti Politti cd being released through EMI on March 29th, 2010 titled "Absolute (The Best Of Scritti Politti)" - some info here. I haven't seen a track listing or found information if the songs will be remastered in any way, but have heard that it may contain two brand new Scritti Politti tracks that Green has been working with original member David Gamson. From the bibbly-o-tek website we find the following info - "A source close to the project has informed me that there will most likely be 2 additional new tracks on the new album. “A Place We Both Belong” and “Day Late and a Dollar Short” are names that were given to the tracks by Green and David Gamson as they worked on them together last year. Actual track names are subject to change upon final release."

Let's hope this gets a worldwide release and possibly brings on some live shows.
