Cinque cd e un dvd con l’album originale rimasterizzato, inedite sessioni alla Bbc Radio 1, le performance a Top of the Pops, varie rarità e remix, nonché uno splendido libretto da 36 pagine con interviste e foto rare: è questo ‘New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84)’, la riedizione del quinto album in studio dei Simple Minds che rappresenta il loro momento di svolta, nonché l’album che li ha traghettati dall’essere una venerata band di culto fino in cima alle classifiche di vendita.
Vera pietra miliare della New Wave britannica e punta di diamante della British Invasion degli Anni Ottanta, l’album convinse il grande pubblico e, trascinato dai singoli “Someone, Somewhere, In Sumertime”, “Promised You A Miracle” e “Glittering Prize”, raggiunse il terzo posto della classifica inglese rimanendo oltre un anno nella chart.
Da segnalare il magico solo di Herbie Hancock alle tastiere nel brano “Hunter and the hunted”.
