This CD edition comes in a jewel case with the original booklet.

Historical background

Simple Minds, formed in Glasgow in 1977, are among the most successful Scottish rock bands. They achieved international fame with songs like "Don't You (Forget About Me)" (1985), which gained worldwide popularity through the film *The Breakfast Club *. With *Good News from the Next World* (1995), they returned to the charts after a quieter period. The album sold well and underscored the band's ability to carry their epic sound into the 1990s. Today, it is considered an important work from Simple Minds' later period.
