The Chameleons

Script of the Bridge Double Vinyl + CD

Shrink-wrapped Promo copy. Guaranteed brand new and un-played

Copies of this LP sold out within a couple of weeks of its release in Spring 2012, but we have a handful of 'promo'  copies in the office, which we’re now making available via Ebay.  Please note:  These copies have the word 'promo' written in the 'limited editon number box'.  75 copies were manufactured for press and media,  these are the final few.  Apart from having no limited ediiton number, these  are exactly the same as the commercial copies,  shrinkwrapped and guaranteed un-played.

Original sales notes:

Limited to 1000 numbered copies worldwide, The Chameleons seminal debut album ‘Script of the Bridge’ has been restored and re-mastered for vinyl at Abbey Road Studios, London.

The gatefold package contains two heavyweight (180g) vinyl discs and also includes a cd, produced without the use of a ‘limiter’, which greatly increases the dynamic range of the recordings.

The restoration project was undertaken by production team Guy Massey and Steve Rooke, who received a Grammy Award last year for their work on the Beatles Box Set.  Guy Massey quotes Script of the Bridge as an influential album on his career.

This is the first time that Script of the Bridge has been made available as a ‘double album’.  By dividing the tracks onto two 12” discs, the sound quality greatly increases with none of the compression that hampered the original Chameleons vinyl.

Working from original studio tapes, the production pair painstakingly restored the album song by song, to create what the band believe is the truest reflection of how the recordings were meant to be.

The gatefold sleeve features exclusive new artwork by The Chameleons guitarist Reg Smithies.
