About this deal

I even felt fraudulent promoting the album, because I knew it didn’t sound as good as it should have. Dexys Midnight Runners were heading out on the “Too Rye Ay as it should have sounded” UK Tour in September and October 2022. Rowland was expected to have healed by then but the recovery is taking longer than expected. Before "Come On Eileen", Dexys' only North American single was the Northern Soul classic "Seven Days Too Long", which Dexys' previous label EMI America had released only in Canada (with "Geno" as the B-side). However, on the strength of "Come On Eileen", Too-Rye-Ay reached number 14 in the US. [12] Dexys' success in US was not maintained; the best performer of the band's follow-up singles in the US was "The Celtic Soul Brothers", which peaked at number 86. [12] It is with huge regret that Dexys have had to cancel the “Too Rye Ay as it should have sounded” UK Tour planned for September and October 2022.

Nonetheless, Dexys Midnight Runners remain as revered as ever. In recent years, they’ve returned to the fray (now known officially as simply ‘Dexys,’ styled without the apostrophe) with widely-acclaimed studio albums such as 2012’s One Day I’m Going To Soar and 2016’s Let The Record Show: Dexys Do Irish And Country Soul, while the band’s current line-up sees Kevin Rowland again working with key figures from his band’s history such as Helen O’Hara and Jim Paterson.We did consider postponing the tour until next year, but we already have plans for 2023, and we promise that when we next tour, and, it won’t be long, we will do plenty of material from ‘Too Rye Ay as it should have sounded’.” Staunton, Terry (November 2007). "Dexys Midnight Runners – Too Rye Ay". Record Collector (342) . Retrieved 15 June 2016. All the songs on the album were rearranged to add strings, which caused Dexys to re-record the 1981 singles "Plan B", "Liars A to E", and "Soon". During the rearrangement process, "Soon" was revised into the opening section of "Plan B"; since both songs were written by Rowland and Paterson, the merged songs are credited on the album simply as "Plan B". I knew there were other songs on there just as good as ‘Eileen’, but they hadn’t been realised properly. Offiziellecharts.de – Kevin Rowland & Dexys Midnight Runners – Too-Rye-Ay" (in German).
