Glittering prize - Simple Minds

Sometimes buying singles is just something that 'has to happen'. You scour through the boxes in a record store and nothing decent comes up. Well... almost. I found this Simple Minds single, and although I never had a deep longing to own 'Glittering Prize' on 7" single this copy looked decent enough (and, to be honest, with beautiful artwork) to take home.

The song reached number 16 in the UK singles chart, but was more successful in Australia, New Zealand and Norway, where it reached the top 10. 

My collection: 7" single no. 7291
Found: 33|45 Records, Den Haag, 17 August 2024
Tracks: 'Glittering prize' / 'Glittering prize (theme)'

  1. Credit where credit is due. You seemed to have listened to your readers and found a much better file hoster and improved the bitrate. It makes for a much better experience and I'm sure you'll get plenty of extra readers as a result.
    Now increase the bitrate to 320Kbps and take some repost requests and you'll have one of the very best vinyl blogs.
    But Well Done!
