NO TRICKS......JUST TREATS

I don't suppose I'll be the only one doing a posting on this theme today - but I do think I can allow myself the occasionally lazy effort.

mp3 : Edwyn Collins - Ghost Of A Chance
mp3 : R.E.M. - Ghost Riders
mp3 : Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Little Ghost Song
mp3 : Foil - The Ghost of Vernon Howell

Edwyn's offering is from his 1989 LP Hope & Despair.

The R.E.M. and Bad Seeds songs were originally b-sides -found on the flip side of Orange Crush and He Wants You respectively.

Foil were a Scottish band who hung around for a few years from late 1996 onwards, releasing a handful of excellent singles and a couple of LPs that were reasonably entertaining. Their contribution to your big box of treats can be found on the LP Never Got Hip, which came out in June 2000 not long before the band called it a day. I think the level of their disillusionment can be gauged from the title of said LP......

Happy Halloween.
