New Leeds United album mastered by Oasis collaborator celebrating 50 years of 'Marching On Together' to be released ahead of Christmas
and live on Freeview channel 276
The anthem, officially named ‘Leeds Leeds Leeds’, was released in 1972. 50 years on, Leeds-based record label Laserdiscs is releasing a 13-track album available exclusively on vinyl that pays homage to the anthem and its co-writer Les Reed OBE, who died in 2019.
It features tracks mastered and remastered by Andy ‘Hippy’ Baldwin, a mastering engineer who has worked with the likes of Oasis and Stormzy. Kevin Smith, owner of Laserdiscs, said: “It was instigated by Les Reed’s grandson Dom. He phoned me up the day after his funeral and asked if we could so something as a tribute to his grandad. I said we had a brilliant idea, it was the 50th anniversary of ‘Marching on Together’ coming up, I told him we’d put an album out and dedicate it to his grandad.

It’s fantastic, we’ve got remixes and remastered songs, and we’re really excited that Andy ‘Hippy’ Baldwin came on board.”
