Uncharted territory: how the Fall’s fractious New Zealand tour nearly sank Flying Nun records"Unfortunately, I neglected to send Mark his free copies and first he knew about it was when he saw a copy for a vastly inflated price in his local vinyl purveyor. I got the 20-minute rant down the phonelines and it transpired that his (vastly superior) memory had it that the LP was to be an Australasian release only! Shit! I’d fucked up big time and cost poor old Flying Nun quite a few bucks and a great deal of embarrassment. More importantly, I’d incurred the wrath of the third scariest man in the history of England."www.theguardian.com/music/2023/feb/21/the-fall-band-new-zealand-flying-nun-record-company

Another one beyind a pay wall .
Can see the headline . . .
Brix Smith Start: ‘I’ve begged Glastonbury to let me play. They never have. It’s almost insulting’ The guitarist and singer who found fame in The Fall talks about her new album, struggling with self-image and being a woman in the industry

The Fall - Lie Dream Of A Casino Soul (Peel Session)
A great version. I have had this single since it was released, but I had no idea about the Wigan Casino soul scene until years later.
If they had only had The Annotated Fall website all them years ago, I could have found out everything I wanted to know. Obviously some people spend a lot of time trying to analyse (over-analyse) these things!
