Cult post-punks The Durutti Column are reissuing two early 1980s LPs next moth.
Both Amigos Em Portugal and Live At The Venue were originally released in 1983 (the former on Fundação Atlântica, the latter via VU) and have been released on CD in the early '00s, but have been unavailable on vinyl for some time. Now remastered, both LPs should help quench the thirst for new material from Vini Reilly & Co., which is reportedly in the works (and has been since 2011).
Trevor Johnson has designed new packaging for the records.
Amigos Em Portugal and Live At The Venue are set for re-release on 18 March via Durutti.
