LOVETRAIN Human Feelings Return (1989)

 
 
A very rare and very fine piece of musical art.
I used to have the 12" of "Lighten Up" on vinyl but couldn't really enjoy it much as there are jumps here and there. A real pity as the single is a real scorcher.
 
If I'm not wrong, the guys come from London and formed the band "Art Objects" in 1978 together with later "The Blue Aeroplanes"-singer Gerard Langley.
 
Now enjoy this:
 
01 The Way Of All Flesh
02 Night Thoughts
03 The Torch You Carry
04 Rags To Riches To Rags
05 Big Mo's Batleship
06 Biger Fool
07 Old Flame
08 Portrait Of St.Sezni
09 Lighten Up
10 Fields Of Flowers
11 Straight Sex
 
plus the bonus track from the vinyl (without jumps!)
LOVETRAIN - The Wanting Seed

02 Walking The Night
03 Heavens Above
04 Internationalist
05 Everlasting Love (D.C. Lee)
