Thomas Dolby To Release Singular.


The CD+DVD career retrospective will feature digitally remastered versions of all the Thomas Dolby greats, in chronological order, and will be released May 18 on EMI.

The Singular Thomas Dolby is set to be followed by remastered versions of 1982's The Golden Age of Wireless, and 1984's The Flat Earth.

Little known fact about the Waist High staff favorite Thomas Dolby is that he was the man behind the distinctive synthesizer sound on "Urgent" from Foreigner's 1981 album 4, and on the same album contributed the lush intro to "Waiting For A Girl Like You." The money earned from those endeavors helped to finance
The Golden Age Of Wireless.
