The second singles collection, 26 songs in a little under an
hour taken from eight separate main releases (some tracks appeared
on multiple singles). Though technically it's only seven, as one
never actually came out - see below. If you're new to J Church and
want to hear what they sound like, this is one of the better records
to start with. The singles collected are:
Ivy League College 7"
Lama Temple 7" (not the title
track)
Split 7" with Wat Tyler #1
Split 7" with Serpico
Split 7" with Garden Variety
(never released)
Split 7" with Nails Of
Hawaiian
My Favorite Place 7"
Tide Of Fate 7" / CDS
Two thirds of the songs are originals, the following are covers:
At The End Of The M1 (Wat Tyler); Cool
Guitar Girl (Heavenly - though with an amended title and
lyrics); Last Of The Famous International Playboys
(Morrissey); Living With The Dreaming Body (Poi
Dog Pondering); Mary Provost (Nick Lowe); No
Doves Fly Here (The Mob); Not Given Lightly
(Tall Dwarves); Planet Earth (Duran Duran).
Guitar Center was also supposed to be on here
but according to Mike at Broken Rekids, Lance forgot to tell him
to add it. The cover above left is the original, the one above right
is from the repressing.
Brendan drums on Cool Guitar Girl, No
Doves Fly Here, Panama, Sleep
and Tide Of Fate. Wade is on My Favorite
Place and Planet Earth. Reed plays on
everything else except Birthday and Night
Time, which have no drums.
