For those not in the know, British Lions’ Trouble with Women returns in a definitive CD edition, newly remastered by Prof. Stoned and housed in a deluxe digipak format.

Originally recorded at London’s RAK Studios in 1978 but unreleased until 1980, this lost classic emerged from a period of creative turbulence that saw the band crafting some of their most innovative work.

Featuring production from Greg Walsh and Phil Thornalley (later of The Cure), the album captures a band pushing forward against all odds, blending raw rock power with sophisticated studio craft.

This expanded edition includes nine bonus tracks featuring previously unreleased demos (including Eat The Rich for Status Quo), rare live recordings, and a wonderfully overblown US radio promo.

1. Trouble with Women
2. Any Port in a Storm
3. Lady Don’t Fall Backwards
4. High Noon
5. Lay Down Your Love
6. Waves of Love
7. Electric Chair
8. (Won’t You Give Him) One More Chance
9. Eat the Rich (The Status Quo Demo)
10. One More Chance to Run (Home Demo)
11. But the Night Is Young (Home Demo)
12. The Studio Song
13. Rising Sun (Live)
14. Come on (Live)
15. My Life’s in Your Hands (Live)
16. Wild One (Live)
17. US Radio Promo

Now complete with nine bonus tracks, inclusive of demos, live takes, and radio madness, they open on the sonically-charged Trouble with Women, the 70’s-imbibed rock of Any Port in a Storm, and the pop-rocker Lady Don’t Fall Backwards and then we are given the guitar-charged High Noon, the impassioned Lay Down Your Love, the melodic Waves of Love and both the rhythmic Electric Chair and the piano-fueled AOR beauty (Won’t You Give Him) One More Chance.

Up next are the nine bonus tracks that begin with the throaty rocker Eat the Rich (The Status Quo Demo) and home demos of both the shimmering psych rock of One More Chance to Run and the quietly alluring balladry of But the Night Is Young and then are backed supremely by a song dedicated to Greg at RAK Studios, the personalized The Studio Song, live cuts of the propellent Rising Sun, the frenetically-charged Come on, the shimmering My Life’s in Your Hands and the full on glam rocker Wild One, the set coming to a close on a short US Radio Promo.
