One of four expanded LTM CDs by The Durutti Column, the legendary Factory Records ensemble formed and fronted by virtuoso guitarist/composer Vini Reilly. Lips That Would Kiss collects together a selection of key tracks and singles recorded for Factory Benelux, Les Disques du Crepuscule and Sordide Sentimental between 1980 and 1982. Chief among these are the pristine singles Lips That Would Kiss b/w Madeleine (1980) recorded with legendary producer Martin Hannett, and Danny b/w Enigma (1981).
The remastered 75 minute CD also includes the rare 12" EP for Factory Benelux from 1982, Deux Triangles, several unique tracks recorded for Crepuscule compilation albums, and no less than nine tracks from the unreleased 1983 album Short Stories For Pauline, some of which feature Tuxedomoon man Blaine L. Reininger on violin.
The booklet features archive images, and a cover based on the original 7" sleeve for Lips That Would Kiss by artist Jean-Francois Octave.
