CD 3: Track 2 “Girls Allowed (Almighty Radio Edit)”. The extended mix was on the CD and Cassette Singles of “Jump”. However, on closer inspection the two “Girls Allowed” Almighty Vocal Mixes, that open Side 1 and Side 2 of this “Jump” vinyl promo, are of two differing lengths (7 mins, 32 Secs [and] 6 mins, 15 Secs). https://www.discogs.com/release/582328-Girls-Aloud-Jump Neither of those two lengths constitute “Radio Edit” Length, which is what CD 3: Track 2 is defined as. If - once timings for the 3xCD set are revealed and the length of CD 3: Track 2 is not either 7 mins, 32 secs [or] 6 mins, 15 Secs - then they are genuinely releasing a previously unreleased radio edit of that one track (and it’s only a remix, not an archive song) - as the full length extended club vocal version (only) was released across CD single, Cassette and the above linked to vinyl promo. Double checking the boxset, only the Club Length “Almighty” mix is on that also. We know there are unreleased Peters & Peters and Metro productions in the archive from the debut era and they clearly do not want any attention on those for this debut anniversary release. It may be confirmed in time that this release was assembled by someone called Tom Parker, who is the “go to” project co-ordinator (for releases such as these) by several U.K record companies.

Some of the Disc 2/ Disc 3 tracks were cassette only in their original era, so this has done a good job mopping up content for casuals without the singles boxset, I guess:

Forgot to post Nicola was at an event on 13th April, where she gave a talk and revealed this morsel of information during proceedings:

Jake Shears “Last Man Dancing”: June 2nd 2023 Jake Shears returns with his 2nd solo album on June 2nd 2023. Jake was the lead singer of American (mostly gay), pop/ rock group - Scissor Sisters who became better known by pop fans out with their home country of the U.S. Scissor Sisters released 4 studio albums between 2004 to 2012. They broke out of the underground New York, Gay Club Scene. After dabbling in harder edged dance music, they embraced the mainstream pop scene in 2004 - then released their self titled debut album “Scissor Sisters”. Despite being American, their biggest markets were multiple countries across the continent of Europe (where they were embraced and much loved). In the U.S. the Scissor Sisters paved the way for Adam Lambert to later be accepted as a breakthrough LGBTQ+ artist (before Adam himself passed that baton on to Kim Petras - as the doors to mainstream U.S. societal acceptance open ever wider): Scissor Sisters also scored an Australian No. 1 in 2006 with their 2nd album “Ta-Dah”s lead single - “I Don’t Feel Like Dancin” (feat. Elton John who more recently worked with Dua Lipa on her U.K. No.1 collab “Cold Cold Heart”). Scissor Sisters went on to have two further studio albums “Night Work” (2010) and “Magic Hour” (2012), prior to splitting - and Jake (the primary lead singer/ songwriter) going solo. Jake’s debut, self-titled solo album “Jake Shears” was released in 2018, before going on to become a U.K. Top 20 Hit. Jake now returns with his 2nd solo dance album titled “Last Man Dancing”. Jake’s new album will also include a duet feature with Kylie Minogue, titled “Voices”. Though Jake’s track “Devil Came Down The Dance Floor” features session singer Amber Martin on sole lead vocals, Jake still opted to include it on his album as he preferred her vocal take on that particular track (more than his own). Jake and Kylie Minogue are personal friends and both Jake (and his former Scissor Sisters band mate Baby Daddy), wrote the lead single “I Believe In You” from Kylie’s 2004 “Ultimate Kylie” (a Greatest Hits Retrospective). That track has since gone on to be considered (by many), a classic staple of Kylie’s discography. The Kylie song “White Diamond” was also later written by Jake (but remains unreleased in its original dance/ pop form). Kylie later contributed vocals to the Scissor Sisters track “Any Which Way. Jake returned the favor by co-writing the track “Too Much” for Kylie’s “Aphrodite” album. In 2015, Jake and Kylie duetted on the Nervo produced track “The Other Boys”. Jake later went on to become the support act on Kylie’s 2018 “Golden” Tour in support of his self titled debut album. ——————————————————————————————— “Last Man Dancing” Album Track List: 01.

Holly’s second album is essential listening (her debut .. not so much).

An insider on the KM16 lead single: "It's a sharp electropop banger, a bit fun, a bit thrilling. Sets the mood for the album." The single is produced by LOSTBOY (aka Pete Rycroft), it has a very European sound. Other Productions: https://www.areyoulostboy.com Background: https://www.soundonsound.com/people/lostboy?amp
