Human League | Being Boiled | Extended HD Version | Shift Blend Album/Single | Single 1978 Playlist | V1 | White label Version 12“ | V2 | Extended Version 12“ | Being Boiled info “Being Boiled“ was first released as a single in 1978 on the Fast Product label, and although failing to chart, was influential amongst other new wave and post-punk artists. In 1987, this version was added as a bonus track to the CD edition of the band’s debut album Reproduction. The band recorded a new version as part of a session for the John Peel radio programme in the summer of 1978. The session was recorded 8 August 1978 and broadcast on 16 August. Among the four songs recorded, “Being Boiled“ is the only one which has had an official release. A totally re-recorded version of “Being Boiled“ was included on the band’s Holiday ’80 EP, which reached number 56 in 1980 and number 46 in 1982. This version was also included on their 1980 Travelogue album, and is also available on the Original Remixes and Rarities compilation album (2005). A stereo remix of the original mono Fast Product version was released as a single in August 1980 through EMI Records, failing to chart. This stereo remix was then reissued in January 1982, this time reaching Number 6 in the UK Charts, shortly after the band’s commercial breakthrough with Dare and “Don’t You Want Me“. It was later included on their Greatest Hits anthology released in 1988. It has also been released on subsequent greatest hits albums.
