I hold it in my hands. It exists in the material world. Today is the release day for Pea Green Coat which is out on 7 inch on Moshi Moshi. Go and buy it and convince the record label it's still worthwhile printing up singles. It's also available digitally for those of you living in the future. Either way, it comes with exclusive b-side Gene Tierney which is an even more Childish-like tune than the A-side. Here's the cover:
There's no note on the sleeve as to who did the cover but the eagle-eyed garage-rockers amongst you will notice the similarity to recent Wild Billy Releases:
It's not just the songs, instruments and production he's lending a hand with. It will be fascinating to hear from the man himself on this collaboration. A week today the new Wild Billy Childish and The CTMF LP comes out - Acorn Man - so I shall be scouring any interviews he does for this in hope of a WP's mention.
I think I might have to hide the sleeve when I get it. It looks like one of those 70's covers that make the "worst ever" lists.
ReplyDeleteI feel like I'm still processing 'City Forgiveness' and here comes another! Good times.
