I Am Kurious Oranj

Description

Product Info

It’s 1988 so naturally MES and The Fall do a song/ballet/art statement about the Glorious Revolution of 1688, when William & Mary of the Dutch House of Orange were invited to take over the English throne (that’s the “Van Plague” he’s talking about). I mean, what else would a pop band do with their time? But this album contains one of the all-time great Fall songs, one of the pinnacles of Mark E Smith’s art, the towering, almighty re-interpretation of William Blake’s “Jerusalem”.

Lp is Orange Vinyl
