This summer marks the 35th anniversary of Madonna's third album True Blue - and she's given fans a surprise present with an expanded edition of the album.
Like its predecessor, the breakthrough Like a Virgin, 1986's True Blue was a juggernaut, further establishing Madonna as one of the most iconic pop stars of her (or any generation). The album matched Virgin's chart haul of five Top 5 hits: the chart-toppers "Live to Tell," "Papa Don't Preach" and "Open Your Heart," plus "True Blue" and "La Isla Bonita."

The new 35th anniversary edition doubles the original album thanks to nine bonus tracks - all rare or new-to-digital remixes and instrumental versions from the original singles. (Only two of them were included on a CD reissue in 2001.) The reissue also features an alternate cover, featuring a photo of Madonna taken by the iconic Herb Ritts.
