Dead Ringer For Love - re-released in 91??? help meeee

Kev · 13 Sep 2003, 00:29

I ask because i just found a vinal copy of the single with my dads collection of meat stuff. This guy has everything, stuff even i didnt know existed... anyway...

This single copy of dead ringer has on it copyright 1981 and elsewhere on the record copyright 1991.

Now, i don't recall the single being re-released in 1991 and was wondering if this is a miss print or something?

The B-Side is heaven can wait... what do you think?

I've got an CD-single from Dead Ringer (w/ Heaven and Bat) also from 1991... so I think it would be a safe bet to assume it was re-released in '91.

Dead Ringer was re-released in 1991 when Bat Revamped was released.

There was a single re-release of 2 out of 3 around the same time I think, but I don't have my cds to hand.

Affirmative. I have the 7" verion of that floating around.

Also, was the Hits Out Of Hell video rereleased at that time? I was watching the credits of the DVD version (I found the 25th anniversary edition of Bat for €16 -- cheeper than Bat and HOOH individually at the same store) wednesday, and in the credits it said © 1991. Made me wonder... and I've seem to have misplaced my HOOH VHS (with Dead Ringer) :(

Dead Ringer was re released entering the UK singles charts on 22 June 1991.
It stayed on chart for two weeks gaining a maximum position of 53.
The b-sides were....
7" - Heaven Can Wait.
12" & CD - Heaven Can Wait & Bat Out Of Hell.

God i'm such an annorak
