LP – Limited Edition Green Vinyl housed in a Gatefold Sleeve. Only 1,000 copies in this pressing.

Originally released in 1979 and long-out-of-print, Nick Lowe‘s Labour of Lust album has been remastered to its original glory and now includes both the UK-only track “Endless Grey Ribbon” and the US-only track “American Squirm,” along with the bonus B-Side “Basing Street“.

Hailed by Trouser Press as “a brilliant piss- taker that pairs sprightly pop and savage lyrical wit” and by Rolling Stone as “…a hookfest full of barbed wit,” the album features Nick Lowe’s worldwide mega-hit “Cruel to Be Kind” amongst other fan-favourites.

This green vinyl pressing is limited to 1000 copies worldwide and features liner notes from Will Birch, pub-rock historian and author of Cruel to BeKind: The Life and Music of Nick Lowe.
