The March Violets 'Made Glorious' 2LP limited purple vinyl (RSD overs)
THE MARCH VIOLETS ‘Made Glorious’ The March Violets ‘difficult’ debut album is now on vinyl for the first time for RSD and on CD with wider distribution - on the eve of their 2023 tour.
Coming to prominence in the 1980’s, the band’s six indie singles made a big impact on the indie chart, and were a prelude to a major-label deal. The singles were compiled for successful UK and USA albums – but the album they threatened never appeared.
Twenty-five years later, original band-members reconvened for tours of the UK and USA. A single and video of Dandelion King was issued in 2011. Unfinished business included an album, and Made Glorious was given a release in 2013. However, DIY economics and events intervened to make it a restricted, limited Pledge Music CD album, much to the disappointment of many.
The 2LP vinyl was a purple vinyl Record Store Day release in the UK on April 22 and the CD in a card gatefold sleeve follows. The Made Glorious line-up is Rosie Garland, Si Denbigh, Joanna Moy and Tom Ashton. The CD and streaming release comes on May 26 just prior to their UK and Europe live dates, listed below.
