I just listened to this on Tuesday! It was so impossibly exciting at the time. I still love it so much but it’s also so much more obviously weird now. It’s a strange record!

I believe it was 1994 (I was 11) - I was listening to my father’s copy of “Mirror Blue” and bought this for myself. From the long-closed A&B Sound in Whalley.
