• 10-inch vinyl single

  Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

  • 
  Even before the release of the debut single from off-kilter Scottish indie-pop legends Close Lobsters, the late, lamented Janice Long got them in for their first outing at the BBC’s Maida Vale Studios. They recorded a session featuring four staples from their blistering live set at the time – which was peak-hour C86.
  
  Two of the songs included here in early versions ended up re-recorded as A-sides of singles, paving the way to a close shave with stardom via their incredible debut album ‘Foxheads Stalk This Land’, released a year later.
  
  Ten-inch vinyl limited edition of 350 copies featuring a set of postcards plus download codes – and a sleeve essay by The Ferocious Apache, Paisley’s answer to the Cappuccino Kid.
  
  Songsheet: Never Seen Before, Pathetic Trivia, Heaven … Rains [Going To Heaven To See If It Rains], Nothing Really Matters
  
  Includes unlimited streaming of PRE 036: CLOSE LOBSTERS – Janice Long session 15.07.86 via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more. ... more
