Reissue of the 1st album by the cult duo of vocalist Alison Statton (Young Marble Giants, Weekend) and guitarist Ian Devine (Ludus, Low Gods), recorded in Brussels in September 1988. All twelve tracks were written by Ian Devine, except for the heart-rending cover of the New Order single Bizarre Love Triangle. The music on the album is remarkably and deliberately sparse - a jazzy Celtic blues for the late 20th century - and is topped with the legendary and distinctive voice of Alison Statton.
Long unavailable, The Prince Of Wales was previously released on Les Disques du Crepuscule in 1989, and has now been digitally remastered with three bonus tracks (one of them unreleased). The CD also boasts upgraded artwork (by Hennebert), archive photos and liner notes by writer/editor Everett True.
