Amazon UK listing is unclear whether it's the reissue or original Go! Discs version.

This version retcons the original in a couple ways - Firstly, the name of the band was originally listed as "The Trash Can Sinatras," but in 2004, they decided to rebrand as "Trashcan Sinatras." All new releases and reissues since reflect this.

Also, the lead singer was originally credited as "Frank Read" but is now listed by his given name, "Francis Reader," as he has been on most albums since A Happy Pocket (he was "Frank Reader" on I've Seen Everything and In The Music). He has said that he changed it on that first release to distance himself from the success of his sister Eddi Reader, lead singer for Fairground Attraction, who'd recently had a hit with "Perfect" in 1988. By the time I've Seen Everything came out in 1993, Fairground Attraction had broken up.

On the album's original release, it topped out at #74 on the UK album charts.

The first week's release of this reissue hit #10. The Beatles' Blue and Red albums were #20 and #27, respectively. I guess releasing four different colors of vinyl to a small but dedicated fanbase will do that.



In this weeks' chart, it's dropped to #55, which is higher than I expected.
