Alfresco [FBN 124] for Record Store DayFactory Benelux presents new live album Alfresco by Section 25 issued in a special limited edition of just 500 copies in clear vinyl to mark Record Store Day on Saturday 16 April 2016.
A digitally recorded festival set mixing SXXV classics old and new, the line-up for the Alfresco event staged in their Blackpool hometown on 24 May 2015 featured Beth Cassidy, Vin Cassidy, Steve Stringer, Jo Cassidy and guest Simon Topping, formerly of A Certain Ratio and Quando Quango. "A revelation," wrote the Guardian. "The best old/new band in Britain."
Vintage dance and electro faves Looking From a Hilltop, Beating Heart and Dirty Disco are matched with more recent songs including Garageland and Inner Drive. Extra tracks on the bonus CD include a version of early Ratio classic All Night Party.
The cover art features live photography by Xavier Marquis and portraits by Martin Bostock.
The group's 1981 track Hit was recently sampled by Kanye West for the track FML on his new album, The Life of Pablo.
