Chrysalis

Genre EU

The roots of Chrysalis stretch back to a tiny flat in West London in 1967, when former university social secretaries, Chris Wright and Terry Ellis, linked their flair for managing and booking bands to form the Ellis Wright Agency. After trying to release their bands' records via other companies, they decided to start their own label.

In 1968, they signed a licensing deal with Island Records with the proviso that if their acts achieved an agreed number of hits, they would be awarded a label of their own. Within a year, this tally was reached and Chrysalis Records was born.

Over the years, Chrysalis went through various ownership changes. In 1985, Chris Wright bought out Terry Ellis and later sold the label to EMI in 1991. EMI was then acquired by Universal Music Group in 2012 before selling the Parlophone Label Group (including Chrysalis) to Warner Music Group in 2013.

Naked Eyes formed in Bath in the early 80͛s by Pete Byrne and Rob Fisher, formerly of Neon (which also featured future Tears For Fears duo Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal). They soon caught the eye of EMI Records and signed in 1983. The band recorded their debut album, Burning Bridges, the same year at Abbey Road Studios but re-sequenced and eponymously re-titled it for North America. Presented here in a 6-panel digipak is the 35th Anniversary Edition of the North American version of the album, on CD for the very first time. It contains US top 10 hit singles Always Something There To Remind Me, a cover of the Bacharach and David's classic, and the US Single Remix of Promises Promises, along with rare b-sides, outtakes and US only released John Jellybean Benitez club remixes of Always Something There to Remind Me and Promises, Promises, the latter featuring additional vocals by Madonna, also on CD for the first time.
