Jarvis Cocker commenting on this release:
"I would urge anybody not to buy it. Please, I find it embarassing to be honest. And also the way it's packaged to look a bit modern,a bit like our sleeves now. It's a crap version... I wouldn't recommend it to anybody. And Fire records never did us any favours when we were on the label. Being signed to that label was the single biggest thing that prevented us succeeding. It almost made us split up." (source: Bar Italia, M. Sturdy)
The disc is actually dark blue instead of black.
