Heard me some Dave Edmunds on @WFMU this morning (thx Clay Pigeon) and I suddenly remembered this existed. Brought me back to being 13 again and watching MTV nonstop.
Rockpile, Seconds of Pleasure, 1980 on Columbia
This is Rockpile’s one and only studio album released under their name in 1980. The band includes Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, Billy Bremner and Terry Williams – though other material from Rockpile’s repertoire would come out under the name of Dave Edmunds or Nick Lowe solo albums.
The whole constellation of Nick Lowe / Dave Edmunds / Elvis Costello / Brinsley Schwarz created some really amazing music – pub rock is the label sometimes attached but that can be a bit limiting.
My copy—via La Fin Du Vinyle in Montréal Québec— is a Canadian pressing (Manufactured by CBS Records Canada Ltd).
