Back again at last!

Friday 26th November 2010 saw the return of the legendary Retreads after a short break of 29 years 1 month and 17 days. Why the wait? you may ask, well in January 2010 Martyn received a call from "Dizzy" at Detour Records in London and was told that a Japanese record label (1977 Records) wanted to re-release their single This was due to the fact that 1977 records had purchased the last 25 copies of the record from Dizzy and they had sold like "hot cakes" in Tokyo!. A flurry of phone calls tracked down all the original band members (Steve was living in Arizona and Martyn in Germany) very soon a website was created at Detour Records to promote the band and by August the newly printed single was ready for re-release in a wonderful red vinyl edition.
