Expanded CD reissue of the 1984 debut album from the Liverpool pop band including four bonus tracks; 'Palm Of My Hand', 'Love's A Beautiful Place', 'Meadow Of Love' and 'Thank You'. Led by singer/songwriter Michael Head, The Pale Fountains broke away from the edgier sound of fellow Liverpudlians Echo & The Bunnymen and Teardrop Explodes, creating a light, breezy Pop sound on their early singles before drifting towards a slightly more ominous yet still melodic sound for this debut. The album's upbeat tracks contain a dark center while the mellow tracks contain an atmospheric, pastoral beauty that is both sad and uplifting. The band would record one more album before splitting and Head would re-emerge nearly a decade later fronting Shack. EMI.
