Firstly, Ocean Colour Scene released Mosley Shoals on red vinyl for Record Store Day. Following that Mosley Shoals returns on heavyweight black wax this September. Basically, the album was originally released in 1996. Surely it was at the height of Britpop when it reached No. 2 in the UK. Furthermore, it stayed there for 92 weeks on the charts. Nonetheless, Mosley Shoals went on to sell a million copies worldwide.

To explain, ‘Moseley’ takes its name from an area in Birmingham, and ‘Moseley Shoals’ is a tribute to Muscle Shoals. Muscle Shoals is an iconic soul recording studio in Alabama. Above all, Ocean Colour Scene’s career flourished thanks to two things. Firstly the endorsement of two of Britain’s largest pop stars, Paul Weller and Noel Gallagher. Secondly, the exposure given to their first single ‘The Riverboat Song’, by Chris Evans on his TV show TFI Friday. All in all the album was produced by Brendan Lynch. Hence the album’s R&B feel mixed with elements of psychedelia and prog-rock. Head here for more info and to preorder the album.
