MUTE 1... An excellent track I'd never heard before now, and so I am grateful to you for sharing it. Mute Records is dear to my heart, releasing a large chunk of material from some of my favorite artists ever.
DUNG 8... Following their signing of Inspiral Carpets and acquisition of Cow Records, Mute decided to continue with the cataloguing conventions already in place for use on future releases by the band. My response is "Directing Traffik" from their debut LP Life. It's a track I first heard on the v/a release Manchester - So Much To Answer For (a critically important compilation in my personal timeline of music exposure), but have recently visited again as I've found myself exploring more deeply into the Inspirals' catalogue over the last few months.
By the time 1990 rolled around (the year Life was released), founding member and vocalist Steve Holt had departed, ushering in his replacement: Tom Hingley, who sings on this track.
