Journeys to Glory

Journeys to Glory is the title of the debut album recorded and released by British band Spandau Ballet. The album was released in early 1981 after the success of debut single To Cut A Long Story Short and the follow-up The Freeze, both of which are featured. Journeys to Glory was produced by Richard James Burgess of synth-pop group Landscape.

The album reached no.5 in the UK in its second week in the charts, remaining in the Top 40 for a total of 16 weeks.

A third track Muscle Bound was also released as a single in a slightly different version, coupled with a new non-album track Glow.
