I just got the news from a friend that this is happening.

Caveat: John Crawford has verified that the master tapes are missing and the CD will be mastered from vinyl. So if you own the LP it may be worse sounding than your copy. Mine was in fantastic condition. But if you don't have the LP this will be an affordable way to go. [currently $60-80 on Discogs] It's a fun electronic New Wave record and my favorite Berlin album.

Nice debut album. Virginia's voice fit the early style of the band, but Terri's voice is much better on subsequent albums.
The "Mind Control" synths remind me of some late 70's YMO work. "Matter of Time" and "Overload" are favourite of mine.
Will they include "French Reggae" as a bonus track? :)

No. And August Day are noncommittal so far.

I own Berlin's "Pleasure Victim" on its original independent label vinyl. Bought it then. Glad to see the earlier one is coming even though Teri Nunn wasn't as active on that one as the later ones.
