Journeys to Glory
Journeys to Glory is the debut studio album by Spandau Ballet. It was released on 27 February 1981 by Chrysalis Records, just ten days after its recording at Trident Studios. The first editions of the vinyl version had an embossed cover. Early CD releases featured the original white cover. The album was re-released in a remastered and expanded 2 CD Special Edition on 8 March 2010.
''Journeys to Glory'', the Radio Show
In November 2009, BBC Radio 2 broadcast Journeys to Glory: The Spandau Ballet Story, a retrospective of the band presented by Jonathan Ross. In the late 2010s, the album title was used for a regular feature on Matthew Rudd's Forgotten 80s show on Absolute Radio 80s, a network that also features Tony Hadley as a regular weekend show presenter.Tracklisting
