Triffids - Raining pleasure

I was asked by James Paterson, who is writing the booklet notes for the Raining pleasure re-issue, to up this one as he currently isn't able to listen to vinyl.

Way back, I copied my vinyl to Cd in order to listen to it in my car. At the time, I did not know how to create separate tracks, so I had two long tracks with the A and B side of the record. I decided to leave it that way for this post, as I believe that is the way one should listen to vinyl.

Tracks are : Jesus Calling / Embedded / St James Infirmary // Everybody Has To Eat / Ballad of Jack Frost / Property is Condemned / Raining Pleasure
