THE CHARLATANS - Up To Our Hips (30th Anniversary Expanded Edition) Vinyl

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of The Charlatans' pivotal album Up To Our Hips, Beggars set to release an expanded edition on vinyl. This reissue retains the full original tracklist while adding ten bonus tracks, all curated by frontman Tim Burgess. The collection will feature live session recordings from the BBC, B-sides, alternate mixes, and unreleased outtakes, offering fans a unique glimpse into the band's creative process during a tumultuous period. Originally launched in 1994, Up To Our Hips marked a significant shift in the band's sound, veering away from the upbeat pop of their earlier works towards a darker, organ-driven aesthetic. Inspired by influences such as the Small Faces and Bob Dylan, the album's lyrics reflect the pressures the band faced internally. With its signature blend of driving Hammond organs, soulful rhythms, and Burgess' evocative vocals, The Charlatans have solidified their status as a lasting force in British music. This anniversary edition, complete with new artwork by Nik Void and pressed on 'petrol blue" bio vinyl.
