Description
Expanded CD reissue. Tom Verlaine is an American singer, songwriter and guitarist. He is best known as the front man of the New York City rock band Television. Cover was originally released in 1984. This has only been available on CD as an expensive European import containing flaws and omissions. We fixed the flaw the European import had on "Five Miles Of You" so that it isn't cut off at the end and also added "Lindi-Lu", which was missing. Our CD features the original American track listing and sequence, and adds 2 bonus tracks, "Your Finest Hour" and "Five Miles Of You" (Extended Version).

Tracklist
1. Five Miles Of You
2. Travelling
3. Foolish Heart
4. Lindi-Lu
5. Let Go The Mansion
6. Dissolve/Reveal
7. Miss Emily
8. Rotation
9. Swim
Bonus Tracks:
10. Your Finest Hour
11. Five Miles Of You (Extended Version)

Definitely in on this one...have the original on Virgin, but anxious to see what WB can do on this...

I'm feeling old now - this record is 34 years old already

I think this is first Verlaine solo LP I heard, c. 1993, when it wasn't easy to find his stuff on CD. Mine was the European disc, which didn't include "Lindi-Lu", either.

It's not my favorite Verlaine by any means, but I like that they are finally rounding-up everything that belongs here. I'm in.

This is a nice release. Besides fixing flaws of original issue, the sound is definitely improved.
I still don't care for the drum sound on this one, but that was the case from the original issue so didn't expect that to change.
