The nineties passed me by in a haze. I have vague memories of drunkenly watching the nightmare of the
wars in the former Yugoslavia on
Newsnight . I knew I was living through a period of significant change, but it
just wasn't sinking in. For example I have no recollection whatsoever of the collapse of the Soviet Union. The moon could have gone out and I wouldn't have noticed.
This record stirs some memories of watching
Trainspotting on video and taking increasing amounts of alcohol fuelled sick leave.
I think that the original had no
tracklisting because it was hurriedly recorded and released?
Anyway, I found this in a charity shop this week. No idea what happened to my original copy. I probably left it in that strange and inhospitable country- the past.
