Marina Records / Germany / 2020 / LP, Gatefold
New enhanced, remastered vinyl edition of the long-deleted, much sought-after Pale Fountains compilation Longshot For Your Love – originally released in 1998 – covering the band’s early years from 1982 to 1984. Longshot For Your Love is a collection of rarities, radio sessions and previously unreleased tracks by Liverpool’s second best band ever – fronted by Michael Head (“Our greatest living songwriter” – NME). Seven cuts are released here for the first time ever – incl. the superb John Peel and Old Grey Whistle Test BBC Sessions (’82/’83). The album comes with enhanced artwork – in a beautiful gatefold cover plus inner sleeve feat. lots of unseen band photos and extensive linernotes by former Pale Fountains manager Patrick Moore.
