Johnny Marr + the Healers announce special edition reissue of their first ever album, Boomslang
Johnny Marr has announced the special edition reissue of Boomslang. Released by Johnny Marr + the Healers in 2003, the album will now be available in its entirety for the first time in 21 years.
In addition to the album’s 11 original songs, Boomslang 2024 offers fans new and unheard material from the first and only album by Johnny Marr + the Healers. Seven previously unreleased recordings are included. Among them are "A Woman Like You", a cover of Bob Dylan’s "Don’t Think Twice It’s All Right", plus an extended mix of original album track "You Are The Magic" (Union Mix), "Get Me Wrong" (Instrumental Version) and the expansive desert jam "All Out Attack"
“We holed ourselves up in our own otherworld and experimented with different ways to write, record and think; guitars and percussion all together in a room, and programming with new technology from the electronic scene. Everything was about discovery," Marr said, in reflection. "Twenty years on, I'm pleased we created the music and this new release of Boomslang has given me the opportunity to revisit it and present some songs that we weren't able to include the first time around. The Healers was something special that happened to me and I'm grateful that it did. A special group of people in a special moment in time."
