Deacon Blue Riding On The Tide Of Love CD

Glasgow's mainstream hit makers Deacon Blue have achieved major worldwide success since their formation in 1985 and have since kept on that path of greatness. Their first album "Raintown" was released in 1987 to massive critical acclaim and went on to achieve over a million sales. The album was quickly followed up with their number one, double platinum album "When The World Knows Your Name". Since then, the band has sold over 7 million albums worldwide and their last four albums returned the band to the Top 20 of the UK album charts. Their last posting "City of Love" being #4 gave them their highest charting album since 1993. This has earned them the right to be recognized as one of the most influential pop rock bands in the UK.

"Riding On The Tide Of Love" is the companion album to Deacon Blue's recent hit record "City of Love". Recorded during the ongoing pandemic, the companion album features 8 brand new tracks, all previously unheard, unreleased and individually recorded by the band members.  "Riding On The Tide Of Love", also the album's focus track, presents a mix of newly written songs and previously unheard material from the "City of Love" writing sessions.

Explains Ricky Ross: "We never expected to be here but here we are, Riding On The Tide Of Love. This is a continuation of City Of Love, a companion piece that we recorded piece by piece, going into the studio one by one to record our individual parts. But despite being apart it's brought us all together, and we hope it will bring you together too. It was made with love by us for you, to help with the ride. Until we see you again, with love from Deacon Blue" x
