[tweetmeme]Next week, the classic 1983 debut album from The The — Soul Mining, featuring the singles “Uncertain Smile” and “This is the Day” — will receive a slightly belated 30th anniversary reissue in the form of a deluxe 2LP set that will include the newly remastered album on one 180-gram vinyl platter and six remixes and B-sides on the other.
And, thanks to the fine folks at Sony Legacy, we’ve got a pair of copies of this handsome box set to give away to two lucky, U.S.-based Slicing Up Eyeballs readers.
