This year marks 45 years since the release of The Durutti Column’s landmark album The Return Of The Durutti Column. To celebrate, London Records announces a very special reissue of the seminal Manchester band’s 1980 debut, set for release on November 28th.
The Return Of The Durutti Column remains one of Factory’s most enduring and important works: fragile, otherworldly, and quietly radical. Produced by Martin Hannett, it showcased Vini Reilly’s distinctive, delicate guitar work against Hannett’s ambient textures, post-punk reverb and glacial electronics.
Immerse yourself in the sublime sounds of the newly remastered edition of The Durutti Column's seminal debut album at Pitchblack Playback's listening session in the dark, premiering the new version on the eve of its release. Hear this immense record played loud in uncompressed audio on our powerful Screen One cinema sound system. No distractions; just you and the music.
