An expanded double CD edition featuringnbsppreviously unreleased tracks, live versions and demos. Featuring new liner notes by the bandrsquos very own Tracey Belland.In the mid 80s, armed with a only a suitcase of songs, Californian sisters Tracey Bryn and Melissa Brooke Belland escaped the American music industry in search of the vibrant British indie scene, finding recently split Madness band member Daniel lsquoWoodyrsquo Woodgate, who together with guitarist Mike Jones and bassist Martin Brett would form lsquothe Beehive Boysrsquo.The powerful live chops of the Beehive Boys, combined with the harmonies, energy and stage presence of Tracey and Melissa, made Voice of the Beehive indie darlings and one of the hottest live acts on the London scene.Signing with London Records, they recorded lsquoLet It Beersquo, its sunny exterior of sparkling indie guitars, energetic rhythms matched with lyrics and melodies that revealed both hope and an occasionally cutting cynicism.On its release lsquoLet It Beersquo was a UK Top 15 album, its singles lsquoI Say Nothingrsquo, lsquoI Walk The Earthrsquo amp lsquoDonrsquot Call Me Babyrsquo all chart hits and radio favourites. Reissued for the first time since its initial release, all orders of the vinyl edition come with a print signed by all members of the band. The expanded double CD version features lsquoCartoon Cityrsquo, a band favourite recently uncovered and remastered from the London Records archives.
