OMD – Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark, namely Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys, have unveiled the DVD track listing that will form part of the reissue package of “Architecture and Morality.”
As previously reported on www.www.uncut.co.uk, OMD are re-visiting their 1981 breakthrough album “Architecture and Morality” with a special European tour, coming to the UK in May.
