2 LP – UK Import – limited yellow vinyl

Deluxe 2LP clothbound sleeve edition of 1996’s Car Button Cloth, the seventh Lemonheads album and their final album for Atlantic Records.

Car Button Cloth is an extraordinary affair of musical and emotional extremes, a soundscape spanning “the most beautiful piano-led mourning in the history of the broken heart” that switches into perky jangle-pop for fleeting moments and contains the ultimate self-deprecating classic The Outdoor Type, penned by Smudge cohort Tom Morgan, as well as a cover of the bluegrass standard Knoxville Girl and If I Could Talk I’d Tell You, co-written with The Vaselines’ Eugene Kelly.

To further unravel where Evan Dando’s head was at during the period of its creation, this reissue includes the original record alongside a whole extra LP of rarities and unreleased cuts, continuing Fire Records’ in-depth series of reissues from the legendary band.
