Design 50th Anniversary Album

19 March 2021 will see the release of the 50th Anniversary Expanded Edition of the eponymous first album by Design on Vacancy Records.

This reissue of ‘Design’, their iconic first album, comes replete with twelve previously unreleased bonus tracks, including seven alternate takes and demos from the original sessions, plus five new tracks recorded by members of the group since leaving Design.

‘Design’ was originally released in 1971, and has been hailed as “the Holy Grail of soft rock”, featuring “intricate harmonies with a psychedelic twist”. The group appeared with Tommy Cooper, on The Benny Hill Show, The Morecambe and Wise Show and many more. Eric Morecambe noticed that Barry was nervous before their first performance and, just before the curtain went up, put his arms around him and said, “It will be all right, Sunshine”. It was.
