Delirious 'The Cutting Edge Years' 20th Anniversary Edition To Be Released
Further information about British worship band Delirious' forthcoming 'The Cutting Edge Years - 20th Anniversary Edition' album has been announced. Released on 23rd April 2012 the special set include 42 songs on three CDs, plus a DVD featuring eight Cutting Edge songs performed by the band at their final concert together at London's Hammersmith Apollo on 29th November 2009, previously included on their 'Farewell Show' live CD & DVD.
The DVD also includes bonus material: 'Live at Studio One Abbey Road', a video of the song 'I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever' featuring The London Community Gospel Choir (LCGC) and 'The Delirious? Story'. In addition there are six limited edition postcards included with the album.
'Cutting Edge 20th Anniversary Edition' will include the full double-disc original Cutting Edge 1 to 4 album, recently voted as the most influential worship album in the past 20 years by Worship Leader Magazine (Jan 2012), plus the first ever Delirious? live album, 'Live And In The Can', originally released in 1996.
"These past 20 years have been inspiring times for all, especially the band", says Delirious? lead singer Martin Smith. "'Cutting Edge' was a unique time in our lives and these songs were the soundtrack to a movement that hungered after God in a new way. A movement that sang in the streets and saw the mountains tremble."
The band were one of the UK's most successful Christian groups ever, releasing numerous albums and writing many modern worship songs including 'Lord You Have My Heart', 'Thank You For Saving Me', 'Did You Feel the Mountains Tremble?' and 'I Could Sing of Your Love Forever'. The band also made significant inroads into the mainstream music industry, achieving eight Top 40 UK singles, culminating in 'History Maker' which reached number 4 in 2010 following a fan-led campaign.
Delirious? started off life known as The Cutting Edge Band, releasing four mini EPs between 1992 and 1996, which were later combined into the 'Cutting Edge' double-disc album. Now, 20 years on from the first Cutting Edge release, the band's back catalogue is revisited with a special anniversary edition.
