Strawberry Switchblade has not been re-released in the UK since the 1985, though all of the tracks (apart from the short instrumental reprise of "Who Knows What Love Is?") appeared on the group's Platinum Collection compilation. In Japan, where the group were extremely popular, it was issued on CD for the first time in 1989. The album was released again on CD in 1997 and included a number of previously released B-sides, remixes and non-album singles.
