Laugh (Blk) (Ofgv) (Uk) [LP], Terry Hall, Vinyl

Terry Hall's second solo album pressed on 140g Black Vinyl, including the singles 'Ballad of a Landlord' and 'I Saw the Light'. Originally released in 1997 on the Southsea Bubble Company label, Terry Hall's Laugh, followed his acclaimed debut with a blend of wit, melancholy, and melody that marked him as one of Britain's most distinctive voices. Much of Laugh was co-written with former Smiths guitarist Craig Gannon, with further collaborations from a stellar cast including Stephen Duffy, Sean O'Hagan (The High Llamas), and Damon Albarn of Blur-who had previously worked with Hall on his 1995 Rainbows EP. The album was produced by Hall himself, alongside Gannon and Cenzo Townshend, and has since gained cult status for it's sharp songwriting and intimate, understated arrangements.
