Singles collection number four, for those people that no longer
have turntables or, more likely, the time, energy and/or money to
track down all those various limited edition 7"s from various
parts of the world. This features almost every J Church track from
vinyl-only releases and multi-band compilations that had not already
been on on the other three singles collections. It stretches way
back to 1994's Travelers and comes up as far as
2000 with songs recorded alongside those from One
Mississippi. The full list is:
ABCs
Of Punk compilation
Asshole
7" (not the title track)
Cool
Beans #11 compilation
Half
And Half 7" (Travelers only)
Leni
Riefenstahl's Tinder Box 7" (not the title track)
Mailorder

New
Disorder Soda compilation
Return

Songs
For The Brokenhearted compilation
Split
7" with Small 23
Turn

The first five songs are Electric Light Orchestra covers and they
are also collected on the split LP
with Discount. The middle-eight of Tightrope
is an uncredited section of The Chain by Fleetwood
Mac. Harvest is the Neil Young song and Sea
Of Pearls was originally by Seam. Disappear
is the old Quetzalcoatl track remixed
in 1998 by Money Mark. The breakdown of the various musicians is:
Bass - Jeff on Closing Time... and Palm
Tree, Gardner on everything else. (No bass on Harvest
and Indignation)
Drums - Adam on Palm Tree and Closing
Time..., Brendan on Crazy Lady..., Disappear
and Travelers, Reed on Pointless Pointing,
Sea Of Pearls and Socialist Newspaper,
Andee on everything else. (No drums on Earthquake Song,
Harvest and Indignation).
Additional guitar - Johnny Takeaway from Hard Skin on Don't
Bring Me Down.
Additional vocals - Harriet Scott on all the ELO covers, Manda
Rin on Turn To Stone (the shouty middle-eight),
Kelly Green on You're The One That I Want.
The man on the back cover is Lance's friend Sean, of Wat Tyler
/ Rugger Bugger Records fame, and the album's title is a take off
of The Who's Meaty, Beaty, Big And Bouncy.
