| OTHER NOTES |
| Gavn Friday is a childhood friend of Bono's, and one collaborator
with whom Bono has worked extensively outside of U2. Gavin has over
the years influenced Bono, and has also acted as a consultant on both the
Popmart and the Elevation tours.
This 1995 album was Gavin's third solo release, and the first of his
solo albums to feature any material by U2. Bono and the Edge both
contribute backing vocals to the song "Little Black Dress" on this album.
Those with keen eyes will note the reference to "Mr. Pussy" in the video
for U2's Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me, and will realize the links
to Gavin's song of the same name.
The packaging on this release was interesting. What would normally be
the front cover was packaged to contain the track listing. The typical
back cover actually contained the image listed as the "Front cover".
An alternate front cover is found on the inside cover of the booklet. |
