I'm planning to throw a little 20th birthday party for Daydream by listening through the whole 4LP version, but all the references I can find to its original release just say "October". If anyone could tell me the actual day of its release it'd be greatly appreciated.

Hence the problem. It seems weird that it's not up anywhere. Surely it's gotta be out there? If I can't find it I'll jsut default to the most convenient Saturday.

It charted (at #99!) in the UK on 29/10/88: http://www.chartstats.com/albuminfo.php?id=10918

Albums are usually released here on a Monday, so if it charted in it's first week of release (which may or may not be the case), then the UK release date was probably 24/10/88.

Thanks. I should have thought to check the charts. However, I will be in the US for a family wedding by then, so I'm going to be a little bendy with the truth and say it came out the preceding Monday in the US, so I can listen then.

Sheesh. You'd figure something like this would be well-documented. I can't find any info about it anywhere.

you might as well celebrate a whole month to the album

i am fortunate that Dirty's release date lies on my own b-day July 21st, which makes it a much more special album to me

I have an old copy of The Catalogue magazine from October 1988 (UK magazine which has a Teenage Riot flexi included), but all I could find in that month's release list was "mid October".
