MARK LANEGAN "SCRAPS AT MIDNIGHT"
SP 419 - Sub Pop Records (distributed in the UK as BBQLP204 - Beggars Banquet Records)
Rare original LP

The third solo album from Screaming Trees singer Lanegan can be seen as the final component of a thematic trilogy. Lanegan's quiet, reflective solo work has always been at odds with the music of the Trees (and dare we say, more interesting). SCRAPS AT MIDNIGHT is no exception; continuing the thread begun on 1990's THE WINDING SHEET, Lanegan offers up another batch of ominous, acoustic-based, soul-searching tunes. While SCRAPS is anything but retro, it has a timeless quality, bearing faint echoes of equally disconsolate troubadours like Astral Weeks-era Van Morrison, Tim Hardin and Fred Neil. Moody, stirring, often unsettling, SCRAPS is a logical artistic progression from Lanegan's previous work.

UK copies of this LP released on Beggars Banquet were in fact, US copies on Sub Pop, imported into the UK and restickered with a UK barcode covering the US details.  This copy is still covered in the original shrink wrapping, featuring the UK catalogue number.  Should you choose to remove this, you'll have a US copy - up to you!!!

This copy graded as NM/NM -  The vinyl shows no signs of ever having been played, and the package was only opened to add an anti static inner sleeves to keep the LP in superb condition.  The cover has also been protected by a resealable polythene sleeve.
