Dexy’s Midnight Runners, Too-Rye-Ay, 1982 on Mercury

Credited on the cover to “Kevin Rowland & Dexys Midnight Runners,” this was their second LP, the first with Mercury Records and the one with the massive hit “Come on Eileen.” Wonderful album – also includes “Jackie Wilson Said.”

There were plans for a 40th anniversary reissue of Too-Rye-Ay “As It Could Have Sounded” (a remix) but I don’t believe it ever came to fruition.

My copy – via Vinyl Vault in Littleton MA – is a 1982 Mercury pressing with the “SRM-1-4069” catalog number and a “Previously released as SHRM 1-4069” notation.
