Soft Cell is releasing a Limited Edition Colored Vinyl 12″ of their cover of the Suicide classic “Ghost Rider” with JG Thirlwell on guest vocals and Gary Barnacle on sax.
In 1983 and 1984 Thirlwell performed the song with Soft Cell live many times, and on the TV show The Switch in the UK. It was performed again for the first time in nearly 40 years at Soft Cell’s show at the Beacon Theater in NYC in 2022, which led to the recording of Ghost Rider for the first time with Marc Almond, JG Thirlwell and Gary Barnacle recording their parts over Dave Ball’s original backing track, all of which has been freshly mixed for 2025 by Dave and Philip Larsen.
Tracklisting:
A1 Ghost Rider (with JG Thirlwell & Gary Barnacle)
A2 Ghost Rider (Marc’s Version)
B1 Ghost Rider (Dubbed Out Version)
B2 Ghost Rider (Original 1983 Backing Track)
