01:08:48|We've made it to the grand finale of our Pet Shop Boys Disco mini series, and after sharing parts 1 - 4 (which were originally released on Patreon a few years ago) we've got a brand new episode to make our eighth anniversary, as we go track by track through Disco 5.As with its predecessor, this one is mainly about Pet Shop Boys remixing for other artists, including the legendary Tina Turner, Paul Weller and Noel Gallagher (with his High Flying Birds). They also remix Sleaford Mods' cover of West End Girls, their own duets with Olly Alexander and Soft Cell, and include the previously released rarity Let The Music Play by Carroll Thompson (produced by them and included on the soundtrack to The Crying Game).Let us know your thoughts on the album, the episode and the entire Disco series in the comments on Spotify or Instagram, or on good old fashioned email: hellotrackbytrack@gmail.com

Pet Shop Boys - Disco 4
42:54|We're up to the penultimate episode of our Disco series, and Disco 4... Or Disco Four: Remixed by Pet Shop Boys to give it its full title.So far each Disco album has had its own identity, and this one is no exception. As the title suggests, this collection - released in 2007 - features PSB remixes, with the band putting their own spin on tracks by Madonna, The Killers, David Bowie, Yoko Ono and themselves. In fact, the remixes of their own tracks are the only ones that weren't widely available when the album was released. Nevertheless, it's a strong collection of dance pop remixes from pioneers of the genre.Let us know your thoughts on the album and the episode @trackbytrackuk on Instagram, or hellotrackbytrack@gmail.comPet Shop Boys - Disco 3
50:04|We've reached 2003's Disco 3 as part of our Pet Shop Boys' Disco mini-series, and this one couldn't be further from its predecessor. With more of a focus on new material, as well as some remixes, rumour has it this one wasn't even originally going to be called Disco 3...Critics loved it (some more than the previous year's Release), but what do you think to this one?

40:54|We're continuing our Pet Shop Boys Disco mini series, and after kicking off last week with 1986's original Disco album we're jumping ahead to 1994 for Disco 2. Unlike the original, this instalment of PSB's remix collections was a non-stop mix of re-workings from two albums: Behaviour and Very.

40:56|In five weeks time we're going to celebrate our eighth anniversary by going track by track through Pet Shop Boys' Disco 5. So to get you up to speed we're sharing our Disco 1 - 4 episodes (previously only available on Patreon) on all podcasting platforms.The mini-series was originally released in 2022, so some of the references might already seem like ancient history...BUT, there's a lot to enjoy so let us know what you think to the episode and the album on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/trackbytrackuk/Boyzone - Said And Done
01:21:04|They had two for the road before saying thank you and goodnight again, and that's when we realised - it's not all Said And Done for us because we haven't ever been track by track through a Boyzone album. They were one of the biggest boybands of the 90s, plastered all over Smash Hits and with hits galore, but how did it all begin? Before the documentary, the comeback, and before Stephen Gately's tragic passing, we're going back to Ronan, Mikey, Keith, Shane and of course Steo's beginnings. Let us know what you think to the episode and the album in the comments on Spotify and Instagram, or email hellotrackbytrack@gmail.comLily Allen - Alright, Still
01:24:26|The sun is in the sky, Oh why, oh why... Yes, we're all sick to death of these ruddy heatwaves, but if you're looking for something to take your mind off the heat then how about a brand new episode of Track By Track? As she tours last year's critically acclaimed West End Girl, we're celebrating 20 years of Lily Allen's debut album, Alright, Still.
