In June 2021 UMC / Island will be making Robbie Williams first two multi-million selling solo albums available on vinyl for the very first time.

Both titles have been newly mastered at Abbey Road Studios, are pressed on 180gm and housed in gatefold sleeves, reproducing the original distinctive artwork. Both titles come with Download codes.

Originally released in October 1997, ‘Life Thru A Lens’ was Robbie’s debut solo album. It entered the chart at No. 11 but had to wait almost six months before it reached No. 1, eventually spending 147 weeks on the Top 100 and being certified 8 x Platinum by the BPI for UK sales in excess of 2 million copies.

It includes the hit singles ‘Old Before I Die’ (No. 2), ‘Lazy Days’ (No. 8), ‘South Of The Border’ (No. 14), ‘Let Me Entertain You’ (No. 3) and ‘Angels’ (No. 4), the latter his biggest selling single to date, and voted the best song of the last twenty-five years at the 2005 BRIT Awards.

Now certified 10 x Platinum by the BPI, with UK sales in excess of 2.5 million, ‘I’ve Been Expecting You’ was originally released in October 1998 when it entered the chart at No. 1. It returned to the summit the following January, and once again a month later.

It includes the hit singles ‘Millennium’ (No. 1), ‘No Regrets’ (No. 4), ‘Strong’ (No. 4) and ‘She’s The One’ (No. 1). ‘No Regrets’ features backing vocals from Pet Shop Boys’ Neil Tennant and The Divine Comedy’s Neil Hannon, while album track ‘Win Some Lose Some’ includes the ‘Telephone Voice’ of All Saints’ Nicole Appleton.
