The Spice Girls have announced they are to release a new and expanded 25th anniversary edition of their iconic 1997 album, ‘Spiceworld’.
Curated by the Mel B, Geri, Emma, Victoria and Melanie C, and set to be released Friday November 4th, 2022 via UMC/Virgin Records, the album looks set to bring together the bands original chart-topping record with some of their favourite bonus tracks and B-Sides, along with previously unreleased live recordings from the Virgin Records archive.
In a joint the ladies say: “The ‘Spiceworld’ era was such a fun time for us! We’d just had a number one album with ‘Spice’, we were travelling all over the world and meeting our amazing fans, we released our second album AND we had our very own movie! Who would’ve thought it? It’s crazy to think that 25 years have passed.”
