There’s long awaited, and then there’s the 43-year gap between Haircut One Hundred’s only LP with Nick Heyward and their forthcoming reunion album that’s about to arrive in early 2025.
Heyward has discussed the fallout from Pelican West before, and that album’s superb 40th anniversary boxset was a reminder that some of his debut solo LP was initially intended for the Haircuts. North Of A Miracle was a big deal in 1983 – it went Top 10, with three of its four singles just missing the same feat – but it’s only now getting a comprehensive reissue, with 2010’s 2CD missing a few extras.
