Reviews
- Edited one year agoThere were some mispressed copies of the original release, where disc 2 had the correct label but instead played a completely different album. I think CDDB identified it as a Stereophonics album, but I forget which one as it was nearly 20 years ago, i.e. late 2000 or early 2001. (My first copy was the mispressing, but I exchanged it for a correct copy a couple of days later.)
EDIT: The mispress was added as The Associates, Stereophonics - Double Hipness Disc 1 / Performance and Cocktails about a month after I first wrote this. 
Stephen, You're really something is about the time Billy McIntyre and Morrissey met in the 1980s. Morrissey wrote William, it was was really nothing and Billy wrote the corresponding track in reference to the meeting. Who knows what was said? Possibly lots of pausing and procrastination.
