Journeys to Glory returns in newly remastered CD and limited vinyl editions, revisiting Spandau Ballet’s 1981 debut.

Spandau Ballet’s debut album Journeys to Glory returned in newly remastered editions on 2 October 2026.

The reissue places the group’s earliest sound back in focus: a sharp mixture of electronic rhythm, funk influence and the style-conscious energy of London’s emerging New Romantic scene.

Before the polished soul-pop of True and Parade, this was the record that introduced Spandau Ballet through songs including To Cut a Long Story Short and The Freeze.
