The English Beat are re-releasing their entire catalog with extra material this summer in the U.K. and in North America.  The band's three classic albums I Just Can't Stop It, Wha'ppen, and Special Beat Service will each be re-released as 2 CD/1DVD sets in the U.K. on June 25th.  Each deluxe version comes along with bonus material such as 12'' mixes, live radio sessions, music videos, live performances and more. Click the links to view tracklistings and pre-order through Amazon UK: I Just Can't Stop It, Wha'ppen, Special Beat Service.

Meanwhile, fans in the U.S. can look forward to the band's five disc collection The Complete Beat (pictured above), which features all three studio albums, non-album bonus tracks, and two full cds with 12'' mixes, live tracks, and more (pretty much everything on the UK deluxe releases except for the DVD portion).  U.S. fans who would rather just own the band's biggest hits without all the extra material can opt for the single disc greatest hits collection, Keep The BeatThe Complete Beat and Keep The Beat will be released on July 10th.  Click the links to pre-order through Amazon: The Complete Beat, Keep The Beat.

Fans interested in The Complete Beat can also order the collection through Shout Factory and receive a signed booklet and The English Beat: Live at the US Festival '82 & '83 on CD/DVD while supplies last.
