The full, original 1981
Return of the Giant Slits
album + a bonus CD that features ALL the archived dub versions and an American radio interview conducted at the time that was subsequently used by CBS for an ultra-rare promo disc. Including new cover art and two of the classic photos by
Anton Corbijn
from the
NME
magazine cover session. The 1981 second and final
Slits
studio album features the same line-up as their first album,
Cut
:
Ari Up
,
Tessa Pollit
and
Viv Albertine
. This record has often been overshadowed by their more controversial 1979 debut. It represents their natural development as artistes by focusing more on their interests in dub and "world music" sound eclecticism (featuring
Steve Beresford
and ex-
Pop Group
drummer,
Bruce Smith
) that is well suited to their, by then, more accomplished playing style. Perhaps, in retrospect, the Jamaican half-sister to
The Raincoats
recordings. A "lost" gem, ripe for reappraisal, of this still vastly influential and important group, in both musical and sociological terms. Produced by
Dennis Bovell
and
Dick O'Dell
(Y Records). Previously only available as an expensive Japanese import and never before released in the USA.
