Shift-Work

IMPORT. 2007 expanded edition of this 1991 album from Mark E. Smith and Co. featuring a bonus CD that contains 18 bonus tracks including B-sides, rarities, remixes and four Peel Sessions. Shift-Work, The Fall's second album for Fontana, is an edgy, accomplished and melodic work. Reflecting Mark E Smith's desire to make a simple album that was 'a bit more relevant to ordinary people' the band had been stripped down to a four-piece for the first time in its career. The new tightness energized Smith and so produced a tremendous, critically acclaimed album that reached number 17 in the UK charts. Includes a 12 page booklet containing extensive sleevenotes, images and memorabilia.
