    The Jazz Butcher Sex and Travel

    Fire Records

      LP

      1000 only. First time on vinyl since 1985. Black Vinyl, Obi Strip. "Disaffected tales of cold war, melancholia and boozy heartbreak" Mojo // "A great album" Allmusic // Reissued for the first time on vinyl since 1985 for Record Store Day. One of the final two releases on Glass, 1985' s mini-LP ' Sex And Travel' offered a broadening perspective and ' retained a loose, playful approach to guitar pop' (Pitchfork). Competence and European travel beget a narrative akin to an impressionistic cold war spy movie, a "mess of styles" that became coherent. "A great album" mused All Music before comparing JB mainman Pat Fish to Ray Davies circa 1969. It' s an "accidental" concept album prone to fleeting melancholy.
