1985 Album Reissued on Limited Edition Red Vinyl LP! Includes the Smash Hit Single "(Don't You) Forget About Me" for the First Time! This item not eligible for any further discount offers! Originally released in October 1985, and coming hot on the heels of the global smash single "(Don't You) Forget About Me," Once Upon a Time was to prove the album that propelled Simple Minds to stratospheric heights of artistic and commercial success. Containing the classic hit singles "Alive and Kicking," "All the Things She Said," "Sanctify Yourself," and "Ghost Dancing," the original, era-defining album is available on red color vinyl in a gatefold sleeve and features "(Don't You) Forget About Me" for the first time. This album was one of their best, most likely leading the pack in the band's album roster, because it exuded raw energy and solid composition not entirely captured on previous albums. -MacKenzie Wilson, AllMusic, 4.5/5
