NICK LOWE - Jesus Of Cool

Item Description

Vinyl,
LP Album

Track A6 "Cruel To Be Kind" was not included on the [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/767117]original UK version[/url]. It was originally written and recorded for the last [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Brinsley+Schwarz]Brinsley Schwarz[/url] album It’s All Over Now, which was never officially released. It next appeared as a non-album B-side on the single [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/1708136]"Little Hitler"[/url]. This is now known as the "original" or "slow" version, as compiled on Lowe’s 1999 box set [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/4258887]The Doings[/url]. It was also added on the [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/2153400]Jesus Of Cool reissue[/url] as "Cruel To Be Kind (Original Version)".

Track B4 is misspelled "Marie Provest" on center label, and A2 mistitled "I Like The Sound Of Breaking Glass".

The sleeve differs significantly from most other versions; all but one of the six photographs on the front cover are different, and the reflection on the back cover image is green while in most versions it is white. The other Scandinavian version [r=10028724] on the Finnish sub-label Arletty shares the same sleeve.
