I used to have it on vinyl but literally wore it out. I used to replay sections of songs over and over as I tried to learn them off on the mandolin....not a very nice way to treat vinyl but I was the only one in my extended circle of musician friends who could play this music so it paid off!

The cover above is not the one that I have as mine is a much older CD issue. I do not know how many years I have it but I only noticed this mistake on the back of the CD today....

Wow! Well spotted Fergus; I must check my own Lp copy. BTW are we talking about the same mandolin I spied in your room upstairs? I was afraid to say something in case you started playing it ;-)

No Dermot, that was my dusty bouzouki that you spotted....the mandolin has been buried in the attic for years!!!

Still are, I wager :-)

I lived, ate, slept and drank music 24/7 back in the day, Dermot, to the detrement of everything else. I was competent, no more, but very enthusiastic!!

That's all that counts in the end, isn't it?

On the old Lp spinner....incidentally a member of the band found the picture of the weeping child in the street!

"Current 93 hit the hight point of their career with the album at the center of this trilogy: 1996's All the Pretty Little Horses was and is the most perfectly rendered artistic statement that David Tibet and company have created. This will sound like blasphemy to the legions who jumped aboard the apocalyptic folk train with last year's Black Ships Ate the Sky, but trust me: I know what I'm talking about. This album is much, much better than Black Ships, and I unreservedly consider it to be one of the finest albums ever recorded."
