It was released on 27 February 1981 by Chrysalis Records, just ten days after its recording at Trident Studios. The first editions of the vinyl version had an embossed cover. Early CD releases featured the original white cover. The album was re-released in a remastered and expanded 2 CD Special Edition on 8 March 2010. Reception{{Album ratings|rev1 = AllMusic |rev1score = {{Rating|1.5|5}}[1] |rev2 = The Rolling Stone Album Guide |rev2Score = {{Rating|1.5|5}}[2] |rev3 = The Village Voice |rev3Score = C[3] }} When it was released the album was considered "fresh, bold, and even somewhat avant-garde".[4] Many fans feel that the sparse, drum-led, funk-undertones are more original than the group's later soul-influenced recordings. One reviewer describes the recordings as "completely unforgettable" and Hadley's semi-operatic vocals as "really strong" and demonstrating a "willingness to experiment".[4] Another reviewer suggests that the slow final track "Toys" was "one of the 1980s' most tragically under-rated tracks".[4] Journeys to Glory, the Radio ShowIn November 2009, BBC Radio 2 broadcast Journeys to Glory: The Spandau Ballet Story, a retrospective of the band presented by Jonathan Ross.[5] Tracklisting{{track listing| all_writing = Gary Kemp | title1 = To Cut a Long Story Short | length1 = 3:20 | title2 = Reformation | length2 = 4:54 | title3 = Mandolin | length3 = 4:07 | title4 = Muscle Bound | length4 = 5:06 | title5 = Age of Blows | length5 = 4:09 | title6 = The Freeze | length6 = 4:35 | title7 = Confused | length7 = 4:38 | title8 = Toys | length8 = 5:48 }}{{track listing | collapsed=yes | headline = Journeys to Glory — {{nobold|2010 edition (bonus tracks)}} | title9 = The Freeze | note9 = 7" version | length9 = 3:34 | title10 = Muscle Bound | note10 = 7" version | length10 = 4:01 | title11 = Glow | note11 = 7" version | length11 = 3:48 }}{{track listing | collapsed=yes | headline = Journeys to Glory — {{nobold|2010 edition (bonus disc)}} | title1 = To Cut a Long Story Short | note1 = 12" version | length1 = 6:32 | title2 = The Freeze | note2 = special mix | length2 = 6:33 | title3 = Glow | note3 = 12" version | length3 = 8:10 | title4 = The Freeze | note4 = 12" version | length4 = 4:20 | title5 = The Freeze | note5 = BBC session | length5 = 4:43 | title6 = Mandolin | note6 = BBC session | length6 = 4:08 | title7 = Muscle Bound | note7 = BBC session | length7 = 4:52 | title8 = Glow | note8 = BBC session | length8 = 4:15 }} PersonnelMusicians
